| Wendell Diller: "You don't wanna put a subwoofer with a Magneplanar; it doesn't work." @bdp24 Re read my post. Then, read it again. I was asking as I could not find the quote. Then, re read it. Got it? | |
| Tube PHONO preamp interference - RFI, EMI, bad grounding? Agree, that the DAC plugged into the Phono would appear to be like a TT at first glance, however, completely different grounding protocol, and completely different sensitivity to the outside world and interference. Which EAR-834P model is it? | |
| Wendell Diller: "You don't wanna put a subwoofer with a Magneplanar; it doesn't work." @pedroeb +1 I’m curious who you are quoting, as I did not see that in any post? The language, and arrogance in the quote are reminiscent of someone… | |
| Tube PHONO preamp interference - RFI, EMI, bad grounding? That’s a challenge, for sure. Never heard any “noise” like that coming from my phono stage, or any other component for that matter. Sounds like a radio that is trying to pick up a signal, that won’t tune. And the beeps are odd. As others have ... | |
| When a budget speaker is preferred to a high end one... @bobpyle Don’t waste your time w @kenjit He has a long history of making ridiculous statements, and when asked to back them up - which he is obviously incapable of doing - he puts the onus on the person questioning him to prove him wrong.... | |
| My experience with the First Watt F7 Great thread! Been a tube guy for almost 30 years. Only recently been looking into SS. And as a diy person, I’ve built a couple of them over the past year or so. Built an amp cam amp for a friend, along with a “version” of the ACA using boards fr... | |
| Which pair of speakers changed your Hifi life? @audioguy85 The Optimus 10’s were my first “proper” speakers. Have zero recollection of their sound. But I sure did play them loud, much louder than I should have I suspect. The first speakers that had my jaw hit the floor were the Wilson Gra... | |
| Reliable source Psvane CV181-T MKII @r042wal Me thinks you are confused. Yes, factory burned down. Yes, Psvane was formed by ex employees Psvane was formed in 2011, and not as a result of the factory burning down. Details matter, because you wouldn’t want peopl... | |
| IsoAcoustics Gaia w/MAGICO @vule Buy them Try them Dont like them? Return them. @havocman Earth vibrates at 7.83hz fyi… | |
| Will rebuilt Quad ESL 57s take the place on a great $30K dynamic speaker? I’ve been running my 57’s with an EL34 integrated and they sound great with that. Do not feel I am missing out on dynamics. Just finished building a Hiraga 30 watt Class A amp. As soon as the transformer arrives, I will be setting up the 57’s agai... | |
| New 55,000 Euro tonearm Typical. If you have not heard it, used it or examined it it person, then all you are doing is posting an uninformed opinion. | |
| Dust cover up or down? Don’t have, and don’t use a dust cover. Will likely get one made for my TT to keep the dust off when not in use, but seeing as how it is used daily, it will be spending the bulk of its time stored near by. Suspect if I get one made, it wi... | |
| 180g … It’s All Hype ! There are some labels that are to be avoided at all cost. There are some that are safe bets - many listed above. Buy from them, and you will likely not be disappointed. if it’s a record I really love, I keep buying the same used recording over a... | |
| American Made Audio Products @darkj I think the list is a cool thing. Especially for the smaller, lesser known manufacturers. There is some amazing gear being produced by lesser know folks who need some online exposure to help their product be known by the consuming publ... | |
| American Made Audio Products @larsman Im not against US made product by any stretch. In fact 90% of my gear is North American made. French CD player, 1959 restored/rebuilt Swiss turntable and a danish phono cartridge are the exceptions. If I were to replace anything in ... |
