| Belles 150A Short Review Bigtee, thanks to your post I have just recently purchased the 150A Reference & it is everything you descibed & then some! Can't wait till its broke in! It most definately should sound better (and it does) as its price is considerbly more ... | |
| which amp should i get another marsh, aragon, eAR This is how I would rate the amps in terms of sound quality: Evo 200.2 (the best) Marsh 400S (second) Aragon (last). My opinion only. | |
| Selling McCormack Upgraded Gear Ss396, your right on in regards to supply & demand! Anyway wouldn't that be great if mods were offered at a lower cost initially. I don't think anyone is going to do us audiophiles that big of favor. If you look into the fact that these units ... | |
| Selling McCormack Upgraded Gear Hi Nealvb, I will most definately keep an eye out for those people who make sole decisions based on price only, especially religious & political fanatics. Maybe someone can invent a spyware removal program that can eliminate them before they g... | |
| Selling McCormack Upgraded Gear Tvad, your right there are different types of tube amps presenting different soundscapes. I was just generalizing & not being specific in regards to a tube sound. Look at the Rogue amps, they sound just like good solid state, not warm sounding... | |
| Selling McCormack Upgraded Gear Nealvb, I always thought a pawn shop as selling a little of everything. Audiogon is a specialized website dealing with audio gear & related items only. There are some pretty nice people on this website but there are on occasions some bad apple... | |
| Selling McCormack Upgraded Gear Tvad, when I refered to tubish, I was talking about solid state amps that come close to sounding like a tube amp thus sounding tubish. For example, Conrad Johnson solid state amps have a warm sound but still very detailed & are known to produc... | |
| Selling McCormack Upgraded Gear Tvad, I understand! I always look for solid state amps that sound tubish but there is nothing like tube gear for fleshing out all the music/details. | |
| Selling McCormack Upgraded Gear Tvad, good idea! Did you like the McCormack DNA-2? | |
| Selling McCormack Upgraded Gear Aggielaw, I seen that ad as well! It is possible that the seller might of purchased this DNA-1 Rev.A with the revision "A" already installed so maybe he did't lose too much money on this sale. I think most of us would prefer to buy this amp for on... | |
| Selling McCormack Upgraded Gear The fact of the matter is that any gear on Audiogon lately is a tough sell, especially anything priced over twelve hundred dollars. You want to blame something, look at the economy. People are hanging on to their money. Gas prices are up & job... | |
| Belles 150A Short Review Rbautista, thankyou. Since you mentioned the hotrod, mine could be one since it does have the gold binding posts but still trying to confirm as to whether this is a standard version with the upgraded gold binding posts or the hotrod. I am not a se... | |
| Belles 150A Short Review Thankyou Teajay, Bigtee, & Photon46 for your responses, they are all appreciated! Finding a budget amplifier that does most things right is a real plus & there is no such thing as the "one" perfect amplifier for everyone especially when yo... | |
| How does one get off the merry-go-round? As a counselor I just want to add one more thing. There are some audiophiles that have an intense addiction to this hobby as an alchoholic would have to a drink. One of the obvious solutions to this problem is to avoid a drink as well as other alc... | |
| How does one get off the merry-go-round? Excellent words from Detlof. Admiration for an audiophile that has truely removed himself from the "merry-go-round" and has rediscovered his music, well done! We can all feel good to know that this is possible. For those members who have accomplis... |
