Guitar Alphabet. Please fill out unused letters... Steve Via also played with Zappa when he was about 18 never played with the crew that I know of. Slash played for guns and roses never heard of Bucket head having the gig unless he took on the new version and i see no point in him doing that, DiMe... | |
wattage difference between SS and Tube remember for volume differences it takes 10x the power output to double the sound pressure in db. you also need ot consider the current capacity of the amp, usually reflected in the transformer size by an imperical approximation. I have a 150 w/si... | |
SS amps. Why so much power? If you want to controll the bass and move some air, and have the speakers to justify it, you need the power, tube or SS. Bass peaks suck power no question. The more inefficient the speakers the more power you will need if you are chasing bass. You... | |
dedicated lines. what goes where? I once had seperate ground rods driven with no hum problems. THen two different guys on audio asylum showed how my seperate ground could be used as a direct path through my system by a lightning strike (i live in one the plains states where thunde... | |
Best Blues Rock recommendations? Tinsley Ellis ..Storm Warning. Then proceed on with any other Tinsley. Coco Montoya but stick with the earlier CDs he's getting a little weak in the writing department these days but he's a killer player. | |
Rock musicians with musical education. Steve Morris a guitar player who founded the Dixie Dregs with a classmate and has played with Kansas and now Deep Purple has a degree in jazz performance. | |
Anyone tried the new and improved Zen matrix? Sherod, I compared a pair of Harmonic Technology (the same guy desiged them as does the AZ)truth links with the Transparent Super XLs and there was no comparison there either. Realization time: about 10 minutes of listening. The supers have a real... | |
VTL ST-85 vs Quicksilver Silver sixty If the MIT are anything like Transparent...loose em and the sound should open up a bunch. You may want to try a VTL 2.5 preamp to see how that sounds. I use a pair of VTL MB185s, the VTL 5.5 sig preamp, HT truthlinks and pro-9s and i'm real happy.... | |
Are You Happy? About 90% of my CD's sound pretty good on the system i've put togeather and the bad ones stay because the music outweighs the flaws in production. That said there is always a special magic when i put on vinyl and i have a really crappy analog set-... | |
WOW Aerial 10T vs. B&W 801II/III To see Weiserb using A VTL 150 shocked me. THe Aerial folks told me not to consider anything less than a pair of VTL 185 or 250 monos. I called them because one of the shows where the 10-Ts did so well was based on VTL amps. The fact that the manu... | |
Which way to go for a long interconnect..... I've tried the pro-silways and have had mixed results with them in a system cabled with silways, truth links and pro-9 speaker cables. Between the CD and the pre-amp they were glaring and irritating. The bass was tight and accurate but there was a... | |
Speaker suggestions wanted I have to disagree with Maxgain here. The Dunlavys like to be close to the rear wall. After a lot of trial and re-positioning my athenas ended up about 2 ft away from the wall. My couch is right against the rear wall....use a bunh of pillows stack... | |
No Sellers willing to do COD anymore??? I have used COD in probably $10k worth of transactions both buying and selling over the last few years with no problem. I have asked for, and have had to pay in some ocassions, for two way shipping costs to ensure the buyer will show up for the st... | |
Interconnect & Speaker Cables for tube amp? -Trying the low buck audio note suggests you are pretty open minded so... I'm a bang for the buck guy who also listens to a lot of life music and has a lot of yeas playing live music. The former hype childern Harmonic Technology cables are actuall... | |
Are You Content With Your System? I hadn't listened to my system for about 3 weeks. I braught home some electric fence insulators for cable risers to replace the foam risers which had significantly lower WAF. I turned it on and was stunned. The system sounded killer. A) the insula... |
