| Amplifiers in use with big Harbeths (Mon 40 series) that work very well I used an Aesthetix Calypso with NOS tubes. While the Plinius was the best solid state amp Ive owned, I haven't owned a lot of SS amps as I prefer tube amps. If I had to use SS, the SA 102 is an amp I could live with. | |
| Really...My favorite power tube is reissue that's not widely popular Anyone try TS 7581A’s in a Music Reference RM9? RM9 accepts KT66, EL34 and KT88's... so not sure if the Tung Sol 7581 is compatible. | |
| Amplifiers in use with big Harbeths (Mon 40 series) that work very well About a year ago, I replaced my 40.1's with 40.2 Anni's and continue to use a Music Reference RM9 MKII with Gold Lion KT88's. It was refurbished by Roger Modjeski a few years before his passing. Along with the VAC 70/70, it has been the best sou... | |
| Focal 1028+Mcintosh MC275 I wouldn't hesitate to own an MC 275 MKV again. | |

| Help with Shortlist of Speakers! (SF vs Devore vs Others?) Look at the YouTube video’s for Fleetwood Audio Deville’s. Not very well known, but impressive sound quality, very efficient and unique with regards to craftsmanship and build quality. http://https//www.youtube.com/watch?v=JvJy2FGgneIhttp://https/... | |
| Tube Preamp - What to buy? No phono stage... but I'd be looking at Don Sach's and Aesthetics.http://www.dsachsconsulting.com/custom%20line%20stage.htmlhttp://http//www.dsachsconsulting.com/custom%20line%20stage.html | |
| What are your opinions of Sim Audio amplifiers? I owned W6 monoblocks paired with Dynaudio C4's more than a decade ago. I found them very underwhelming and sold them within a few weeks. Not impressed. | |
| Speaker suggestions please - going to the BIG city Used Harbeth M-40.2's ($10K) would be a good fit for your music preferences, room size and accompanying electronics. | |
| Acoustic BBQ Cables I love my Acoustic BBQ Dueland speaker cables. | |
| The Luxman L-595A SE integrated is coming. Swing and a miss on the aesthetics. | |
| Harbeth 30.1, 30.2, XD @twoleftears @Ryder comments are spot on. This also applies to Harbeth 40.1 and 40.2 Anniversaries as well. Both great speakers, but I find the 40.2's are more difficult to place and benefit from room treatment. | |
| Tubes for Cary V12 amps. I recently tried Mullard re-issues in my Music Reference RM9 MKII and was very disappointed. The best sounding I've used are RAM EL34's from The Tube Audio Store @ $35 each. | |
| Bricasti M3 vs. Holo Audio May vs. PS Audio DS @raysmtb1... you mean the "Bricasti" is the clear winner, correct? | |
| Emission Labs Tube Warranty Problems That's lame service and poor professionalism on the part of the distributor. I always assumed they were reputable, but your experience proves otherwise. |
