| Looking for a warm sweet speaker There's a nice pair of Harbeth M-40.1's under your budget listed on Audio Mart and located in Michigan. This is my desert island speaker. Very easy to drive, full bodied, warm, yet detailed.https://www.usaudiomart.com/details/649442789-harbeth-4... | |
| Looking for a warm sweet speaker Harbeth M-40.1's occasionally come available slightly more or less than your $7,500 budget. | |
| Please help me find perfect dac for me Luxman DA-06 fits the bill. | |
| Looking for a Giant Killer Digital cable I second the Black Cat Silverstar recommendation. Can use as RCA or BNC. | |
| Which is better - Hi end CD transport or Music server into DAC? I have an older model Music Vault paired with a Luxman DA-06 DAC. I tried feeding the same DAC with an older CEC transport and a PS Audio Perfectwave transport. The Music Vault beat out both transports. The CEC was the better of the two trans... | |
| Upgrading from Integrated Amp to Separates I have no experience with Lyngdorf, but I can vouch for Neal at Sound Science as being a great guy to work with. While I'd like to try the Lyngdorf all in one solution, I'm hung up on the nostalgia and sound of tube amps.I've owned 40.1's on an ... | |
| KR Audio VA300 If you have a quad of KR 300B's you'd like to sell, let me know. | |
| Help please I recommend you have your hearing checked with an Ear Nose and Throat MD. I spent a decade swapping out speakers, amps and cables in two different homes, but the sound on the right side of my room was never as loud or as clear as the sound coming... | |
| Defective KR Audio T-1610 tubes Do you have any idea how many hours are on the tubes and their typical life expectancy?You can buy KR tubes from BEST300B.com | |
| Music reference/ audio research / vpi Roger did a good job repairing, refurbishing and retubing my RM9. His RAM tubes are a strong value (my RM9 MKII is fully tubed with RAM), but if I were looking for premium NOS tubes, I'd go to VTS or Brent Jessee. I've purchased tubes from Upsc... | |
| Music reference/ audio research / vpi For premium tubes, I recommend you call Andy at Vintage Tube Services 616.454.3467.He's probably the most knowledgeable and trusted retailer of premium quality tubes. My only word of caution is that he is a one man show, so it can take several w... | |
| Music reference/ audio research / vpi I'd use RAM KT88's and maybe play with some NOS signal tubes, then upgrade your preamp to something from CAT, Aesthetix or go up the Audio Research food chain. | |
| Is it possible to not see all the albums / CDs for sale? Ditto!!!I posted on the same topic a few weeks back, but did a poor job explaining my beef, so it didn't get much traction.The original version of Audiogon had a separate section for recordings and did not mix ads for music with ads for gear.I fin... | |
| Music reference/ audio research / vpi fanotunes,I guess you picked up the nice pair of 40.1's recently listed for $6,700? If so, you got a great deal on those puppies! I think you will be amazed how organic and natural they sound. I've heard other's refer to Harbeth's 40 series as ... | |
| Music reference/ audio research / vpi I've not owned an Audio Research preamp, so I couldn't tell you if it would be compatible with the RM9. I use an Aesthetix Calypso Signature and love it. You can buy the standard Calypso used for around $2,500. |
