| Bottlehead Crack It looks like you get a lot with the BeePre for $1175.00. I have never seen 300B tubes in a preamp. I do not know much about this stuff but I am guessing it is way over built so it cruises along easily handling all signals.Everything I have read a... | |
| Bottlehead Crack a very enthusiastic yes from Tgrisham! thanks for sharing! | |
| Harbeth vs JM Reynaud I owned JMR Trentes and really loved them. I sold them and got Audio Note E silver (kit) for the more full range sound but always missed the Trentes magic midrange which was super revealing and musical.Bob Neill is a JMR expert (IMO) he owns Amher... | |
| Bottlehead Crack Thanks guys! Bottlehead seems to be very thorough.I decided the most important thing is getting the Crack to sound it's best so I bought some Sennheiser HD600s. It will be a while before I get the amp (they ship them in batches) and then I have to... | |
| Bottlehead Crack Bombaywalla, I will let you know when I get everything going which will probably be at least a month away...(without the Speedball) ;^)btw your system looks amazing!good job! | |
| Bottlehead Crack Bombaywalla, thanks for the information I have been to those websites and know they recommend against using 32 ohm cans with the Crack unit I was just curious (and hoping for better news) as to what happens in the circuit and you cleared it up nic... | |
| Bottlehead Crack Zavato what is your formula for figuring the 3db down point?I have considered the HD600s but I need them for another room as well which is not suited to their 300 ohm load.Still the Crack is a very attractive amp and I may have to figure something... | |
| Bottlehead Crack thank you Zavato | |
| Bottlehead Crack would a NAD Viso HP50 headphone work with the Crack? It is 32 ohm (which may be too low I dunno) what would be the adverse affects? | |
| MMG Placement based on my 1.6's in a 13 x 23 x 8 room I would say no problem and in fact they might fit ideally. | |
| Audionote Soro SE, or cheaper single-ended? frankly I doubt it, the impedance says 4 ohm so not tube friendly in that department eitherjust my guess | |
| good, cheap cable for headphones? thanks guys I ended up with KabelDirekt (German made) 15 ft cable for $11 on Amazon they spoke about this cable on head fi thanks John!Thanks Zd542 as wellfwiw my headphones came early and sound amazing, just what I hoped for. | |
| Classic Rock Quiz 11 right only knew a few | |
| MMG Placement "I could create some distance from the half wall, but probably not 5 feet."even four feet would probably suffice in that situation and the half wall thing may (or may not who knows) work out pretty well (also you could hear the stereo in the kitch... | |
| MMG Placement fwiw I use SMGa's in a room 13' x 30' x 8' and the balance is terrific with beautiful bass, however, I have them placed at one end of the room (about 5 feet out) not along the side wall like you want to do.also fwiw the SMGa is supposed to be a be... |
