What companies, out of Business, did you LOVE??? Great American Sound! I loved my G.A.S Son of Ampzilla. Not only were their electronics great, but what originality for names. Who else would come up with Charlie the Tuner? | |
Has anyone tried SET tubes amps with maggie 1.6's Hello Richard,I am currently doing much what you have done. I am running my Martin Logan's with a 7 Watt SET (Decware Integrated). I am experiencing much the same results as you. Overall, much more involving, but only so much volume on tap. It is ... | |
Madrigal Mark Levinson out of business. I think the way Madrigal Audio Laboratories has handles this situation is terrible. As was stated before, the people that made the product great are no longer. They were given no consideration at all. The company has also left us (the consumer) wi... | |
High End Audio Equipment, Status Symbol? For the most part, when I mention the manufacuters names of the equipment I have/had owned, I do not get the shock and awe factor. Probably because the average Joe on the street has never heard of them. Bose has successfully marketed its' name as ... | |
Building a Subwoofer Hey Slappy, as previously posted, I had owned a Audio control Richter Scale and found it to work well for me. It is budget priced.good luck, Paul | |
What makes different amps produce different sound? Hi Jeff,One design in particular, negative feedback has a rather substantial effect on sound... way back, adding massive amounts of negative feedback was a popular way to woo a consumer by drastically reducing THD or Total Harmonic Distortion... I... | |
Why do DIY products have less value ? Everyone's opinion here on the perceived value of DIY has in fact set DIY's value. The true value of ANY item is what someone is willing to pay for it. It is my understanding that a commercially available speaker has components and materials in it... | |
Subs for Martin Loagn CLSIIs I also had the CLS2's and my sub did not integrate well at all with them (home built), although it did and continues to do so now. Although I am not sure how well they would integrate with the CLS2's, the ACI Titan II or Force are excellent low bu... | |
Audio Apature cables? Hi Charlie,I think I have a pair from many years ago. they were supposed to be the hottest thing out (what isn't?). I found them less revealing than the old Monster referance A's. I still have them, but do not use them for anything serious. Paul | |
Tube Integrated Hello Travis,I own a Decware SE34-I Integrated tube amp and could not be happier. I have had much more expensive audio gear and there was no contest, the Decware Zen amp put them all to shame. If you have efficient enough speakers, it will get ple... | |
The Best kept Secret in Speaker Cables please? Audio Asylum can be a VERY dangerous place to express ones' opinion. I personally don't dare to do so. I am afraid of finding my pet rabbit in a pot on my stove. | |
Ok this will be a good thread. although Twl's demo is very convincing, I find speakers made the most dramatic change. Also, although not a component, I find the ultimate source, the CD (or LP) make a huge differance. Some CD's I use only in my car/garage/kitchen. Next, probably... | |
Klipsch love them or hate them. Definately 2 different camps on this one! Personally, I find they irritate my ears, literally I find that my ears sort of itch internally after listening to them. Other speakers rate frequency response +/- 3db, Klipch (at least used to) rate their... | |
Melos 333 R or BAT VK5i As a previous owner of a Melos 333, I had it modified by MAR. I found them to be great to deal with. I cannot however make a comparison with the BAT as I have not yet heard it. | |
Power Conditioners vs. Power Cables I personally have found a big improvement by using a Monster HT2000. I found no differance from aftermarket PC's. I believe this to be very individual on your system and the power being provided to your home. You may wish to try NOT plugging your ... |
