| Pass Labs XA- ".5" ??? Very interesting thread. I recently bought a pair of XA160's. I had three different Alephs before then. The Aleph series and X series were around for quite a while. Then came the XA's, then quickly the X.5's and now very suddenly the XA.5's. Produ... | |
| Cartridge upgrade for SME 20/2A??? Cipherjuris,I know this is off topic, but as the thread is starting to discuss improvements to an analog front end, could you please elaborate about how exactly the Loricraft improved your sound? I currently use a VPI 16.5 and though it is loud, i... | |
| New Eggleson Works speaker? Sorry, I left the "t" out of the word Eggleston. | |
| Cartridge upgrade for SME 20/2A??? I am using a Sumiko Celebration ($1,500)on my SME Model 10, SME V arm and a Harmoniic Technology copper phono cable with excellent results. The Celebration was designed using the SME 30/2 and V arm so the synergy is superb. I am intrigued by the S... | |
| power cords for Pass Labs Amps Tboooe, I also have the Pass XA160's which I run on 15' JPS Labs In-Wall cables directly to dedicated 20-amp circuits from my AC panel terminated with Furutech IEC plugs. I tried this approach with my Pass Aleph 2 monoblocks and found it made a bi... | |
| better tonearm for SME 20/2 Rob,For $1,500 you could try a Sumiko Celebration. I have one on a SME V and SME Model 10 table. I read that the cartridge was designed using the SME 30/V combo. The synergy is truely excellent! The sound is slightly warmer than neutral but it sou... | |

| Sugden A21 AP or Pass Labs Aleph 30? I have a Pass Aleph 3 in my second system. It runs hot but is superb sounding. Very natural. It has run flawlessly for 10 years. It would mate very well with 90db speakers. I have read that the Aleph 30 is a slightly more refined/improved version ... | |
| MAPLESHADE RECORDINGS I agree with Chazzbo. The Clifford Jordan is excellent. I just wish it were available on vinyl. I don't like the Mapleshade catalogue either. | |
| Anyone experienced JBL's K2 S9800? Porschecab,I stopped by on a lark as I was in NYC for the weekend and had a couple of hours to kill. I told Mr Joshua Cohn that I am fairly new to the hobby and wanted to hear something different from my Pass/Eggleston combo and so he let me liste... | |
| Anyone experienced JBL's K2 S9800? I just heard a pair in NYC at Ears Nova. The mids and highs were outstanding with VIVA tube amp and Linn cd player. The bass did not extend very low, but the dealer was very nice and accommodating. | |
| Upgrading - Pls Suggest Speakers to Review Eggleston Andra II's or Savoys sound great with Jazz. They need power though. | |
| Harmonic Technology Cyberlight cables With such a short warranty, how will the resale value of these cables hold up? Will it be like buying a used cartridge (ie, something that has wear and a lifespan) on audiogon? | |
| Pre- / Amp for Eggleston ROSA I drive my Rosa's with a Pass Labs Aleph P preamp and a pair of 100W Pass Aleph 2 monos. Plenty of power and great sound in my 16 X 20 room. | |
| The Front End is Done. Upgrade Speaker Ideas How about trying a pair Eggleston Rosa's? I also listen mostly to vinyl, use Pass electronics and Harmonic Tech. cables. The combo sounds great in my 14'x16' room. |
