10K$ Speakers for 845 SET amplification Daedalus Ulysses would fit the bill perfectly. | |
Best tubed full-function preamp with remote Big fan of Aesthetix. The Janus would be a considerable upgrade over your Mac. Has everything you need... home theater bypass, phono and remote. Responds well to tube rolling (essential), made in the USA, has great resale value and excellent custo... | |
JADE AUDIO Cables Good luck JD. I still love my Hybrid Gold IC's! | |
EICHMANN CABLES ANYONE? I prefer gold based IC's from Jade & KCI. | |
McIntosh MA2275 int tube Amp...OPINIONS PLEASE I've had very good experiences with Brent Jessee as well. Good service and good tubes at a fair price. | |
Dyneaudio Confidence C2 II and Naim I'd sell my speakers before I'd go back to solid state. keep the Octave and try a different, more compatible flavor of speaker.. | |

Favorite 300B: Sophia vs KR Al - yes, the readings on the bases of the VAC / Chinese tubes read 45 & 5.4. | |
Favorite 300B: Sophia vs KR Swampwalker - I am far from technically savvy when it comes to tubes... but I assumed that "mA" refers to milliamperes. If that's the case, my VAC REN 70/70 Signature amp has a milliamperes dial on it and it measures milliamperes for each tube. In... | |
Favorite 300B: Sophia vs KR 80 mA. | |
Quicksilver V4 vs Manley Snappers I have zero experience with either brand, however, I'd pick the Quicksilver's over the Manley's based upon Quicksilver's strong reputation for customer service, even for 2nd hand gear. Since I buy most of my gear used, this provides piece of mind,... |
