| Problems getting the best out of my Berning I am very happy with the Proac-Aleph 3 combo, but I would not say that the Proacs are very warm or laid back, atleast with my current cabling and the Aleph amp. Instead I feel that they are very forward and accurate. I've mentioned that before on ... | |
| Problems getting the best out of my Berning I'm thinking I should ship it back to David. The shipping wouldn't be costly for such a light amp (insurance could be >> the shipping cost), and he would be most qualified to test the amp thoroughly (including the tubes). Perhaps that would ... | |
| Where can I send my tubes for testing? How about the HICKOK 533A? There is one on Ebay right now. | |
| Where can I send my tubes for testing? Hello Tube Gurus! If I'm going to purchase a tester, are any of them too old to work on the following tube types?12AT7's, 6201's and 6SN7's, 5965, 6JN6 Thanks Alot. | |
| Problems getting the best out of my Berning Tubegroover - would you go for the Cryo'd tubes first? Or do the NOS first? Thanks. | |
| Problems getting the best out of my Berning The amp only has about 10 hours on it total. The other CDP I'm using with it is an Arcam FMJ CD23. | |
| Good Audio Dealer in San Francisco I went to Harmony Audio. They were great! I spent 2 hours in a room without interruption auditioning the Totem Mani-2's, Model 1s, and B&W N805'2. Frank and Smitty were generous with their time and information. Only several speaker lines repre... | |
| Problems getting the best out of my Berning Hello All,Thanks for your suggestions! Ill try to provide answers, and then highlight the remaining questions that arise from consideral all the responses:1. As for the preamp Ive run it with and without a Rogue 66. In both cases, I still get ... | |
| Review: Totem Acoustics Model 1 Monitor I assume this review is for the model 1, not the signature version? Has anyone compared the signature to the original (besides the review update in Stereophile)? If so, please enlighten us. Thanks. | |
| Differences between Totem Model 1- bi vs Model 1-Sig I recently listened to the Model-1s and the Mani-2s monitors. The Mani-2s sounded alot like my Proac 2.5's - a very balanced sound that didn't indicate the need for a sub. The Model-1s had incredible soundstage, though it seemed a bit emphasized i... | |
| Audiogoners Anonymous? Geez - i can't believe I'm number 17 to get onto this thread! Where have I been all day (flying to San Francisco). | |
| Well, What's the Verdict on the Cary 308T Sorry about that. I didn't realize what the "T" standed for. I'll be interested in hearing if anyone upgraded from the standard to the tubed output, and how it changed the sound. | |
| Well, What's the Verdict on the Cary 308T Well, I've had the unit for about a month now. I placed a comparison of it, the Heart CD 6000, and the Arcam FMJ CD23 on bottom of the following forum:Cary CDP ComparisonTo summaryize about the Cary (worth reading the whole comparison): This unit ... | |
| Pass Aleph vs. McCormack: What to Expect? I would like to try an Aleph 5 to see how it compares in sound to the Aleph 3. The Aleph 3 has such a nice sound, and my Proac 2.5's do OK on the bass, though there could be more. What is disconcerting is that I have to turn the volume control on ... | |
| Pass Aleph vs. McCormack: What to Expect? If Alas lacks bass due to lack of power, will I get more bass by bi-amping? |
