| $100,000 line stage I think I'm going to hold out until Audio Note builds a $200,000 preamp because that one should be twice as good! | |
| Are future improvements in Amp/PreAmps slowing to a crawl? geoffkait, that's definately a different but interesting approach but how were you able to get rid of the house ac? | |
| Are future improvements in Amp/PreAmps slowing to a crawl? Shadorne , I'm sure you already know, specifications shouldn't be used as an indicator on what sounds good. and you also know there is gear that have terrible measurements but sound spectacular. Plus you right, you can't measure musicality but you... | |
| Are future improvements in Amp/PreAmps slowing to a crawl? Yes in "some" cases they are engineering the musicality right out of them because too many audiophiles are demanding more detail from their gear. Excluding Class D amps how much more positive advancements are left to improve upon both in preamp an... | |
| Incredible deal on incredible amp Hi jmcgrogan2, no you're not seeing double. I answered lxgreen's question just now not knowing you had already answered it but many thanks anyway. | |
| Incredible deal on incredible amp lxgreen, the basic fee for an ad is $4.00 for 30 days on Audiogon. Maybe you clicked on the green box that says "create a listing" which costs $10.00 per ad. Just underneath that green box says: "no thanks create a basic listing" That ad cost $4.0... | |
| Incredible deal on incredible amp Even if you restarted your ad three times that's only a $12.00 investment. If your not willing to invest such a small amount then you can't expect a positive result. I have done this on many occasions with it resulting in a sale. If it don't pan o... | |
| Incredible deal on incredible amp The Rex II definately looks like an incredible piece of gear and given its new price tag of $20, 000, your asking price makes it an outright steal. I just don't think that many people have the disposable income they used to have and the ones that ... | |
| Most Beautiful Receiver / Integrated - Ever was... ? Kyoccera, was pretty cool looking stuff at the time. If I am correct they were the first company to use mosfets and advertise them as tube-like. | |
| Audible Illusions Modulus PreAmp>Best Amplifier Match Ever! When I owned the Audible Illusions 3A it was mated to a McCormack DNA-1 with revisions, the sound produced was spectacular. Keep in mind that Audible Illusion preamps are heavily regulated and are designed to work very well with solid state amps. ... | |
| Conrad Johnson--does anyone use this brand anymore? CJ products sound spectacular, even their entry level products are very good and are a cut above the competition but can benefit from upgrades since they have a very solid foundation to work with. I had called CJ trying to get a part for a preamp ... | |
| Suggestions to help you sell your equipment on Audiogon There was a big exodus from Audiogon years ago when the new owners changed things around to such a degree, many left in disgust and vowed not to come back other then to check the forums once in a while. I am also a member of us audio mart and have... | |
| Upgrading amplifiera. Anyway most upgrades that are done to amplifiers recommended by the manufacturer do make a significant improvement. However I know some people that have spent money on upgrades only to realize that the magic that was originally there was upgraded ... | |
| CD players = dead? As long as people have albums they will own a turntable and the same applies to CDs. Why not include an audio server and do all three?, I think it would be a lot of fun. I still use a FM tuner on a daily basis for news and background music and th... | |
| Upgrading amplifiera. I don't think some people understand the importance of good amplification in the chain and everyone knows the importance of eliminating any weak links in the system. If I was going to fudge a little on a component it would certainly not be the p... |
