| Is this a meaningful upgrade? I own both the Bifrost, and the Yggy. I can tell you the Yggy is a meaningful upgrade. | |
| Organ music, your system, and an old German I can relate to that. Organ music, especially the Pipe Organ, is underappreciated. It can put your speakers to the test with those lower frequencies. We have a classical radio station here in the Chicago area, WFMT. It has on occasion a segmen... | |
| Billie MK3 Pre order and Price!! $7 per hour in the late 1970’s is equal to $36 per hour today. ? More like North of $100/hr. @ a Dealership, and North of $75/hr. for an independent mechanic. hilde45 has some good suggestions. | |
| Billie MK3 Pre order and Price!! Then don’t buy anything if prices are too high. As if the Billie MK3 is the only Integrated available. Like I have pointed out, many good alternatives out there, at lower prices. | |
| Enjoying the Original Music Streaming Format - Analog FM Stereo Same here. I live in the Chicago suburbs. We have here WFMT - Classical, and WDCB - Jazz. Enjoying the reception with a Sony 730ES, Yamaha T-85, and a Sansui TU 710. | |
| Billie MK3 Pre order and Price!! Do you really think 2800.00 is too much? Yes, it is! The origional and MK2 was around $2K. Maybe you want to pay cheap receiver prices for quality audio? What a silly question! There are good Integrateds from Rogue Audio, Schiit, Rega, ... | |
| Should I buy a seperate dac? Save your money. For a first time DAC, I would recommend one above 2K. Any less, one will always want something better up the line, eventually. | |
| Entry Level Tube Integrated Amps "Entry level"? No such thing. Maybe lower priced, or affordable. One way to approach this, buy the best you can afford plus a little more - meaning save a little extra. Consider buying something you may not want to upgrade latter on, which gets... | |
| VTL Pre tube roll…or suggestions on 12AU7s You`ll probably void the warranty using any tube other than what the manufacture recommends. If you`re not satisfied with the sound you have, it`s either you swipe the tubes or get another preamp. I think it is rare that any mishap will occur usin... | |
| Help me find my ideal Stereo Integrated Amp Hey, there are some here who cannot appreciate the helpful suggestions given, and should stay out of this thread. | |
| Reliability - what’s your experience been? Amps, Preamps, and Speakers. The most reliable. CD players the least. Spoke with a Hi End repair tech, he told me CD players have the highest failure rates vs Tape Decks and Turntables. | |
| Help me find my ideal Stereo Integrated Amp Check out what Naim offers. I think it may be the Uniti line. | |
| 3 tone control integrated amp/preamp gkelly +1 A 3-tone control integrated amp/preamp is nonexistent. Can`t do better than a Loki, or an equalizer, anyway. | |
| Upgrading a Rega Saturn-R For the price you pay, the Saturn-R CDP will be hard to beat. You may be better off using it as a transport, with an outboard DAC. Or, if the laser is going out, buy a Transport and one of the great modern DACs available. | |
| Newbie, first time tube rolling. It does not matter where you have the input selector. That is for choosing your listening source.- it does not turn on/off those tubes. The only time no current is going through those tubes, in phono stage, is when you have the preamp turned off, ... |
