| Do I need to replace all my tubes at the same time Replace them all then keep the rest of the good ones for back up. | |
| Good speakers under 10K. Lipinski L707 monitors. | |
| Are Carver Preamps Any Good? That's when I owned them. One day MBL will be in the same league if I live that long. Best of luck...I think. | |
| Are Carver Preamps Any Good? Mapman is right. I had a C-1 for years. Then I switched to tubes. Got a C-9 hologram generator, since I love the sound. I ran the C-1 with a 7270 McIntosh, and all kinds of Klipsch speakers, and the results were good for many years, but tubes can'... | |
| To Power Down, or Not to Power Down I spoke with Cary. It's ok to power down. Preamps don't matter as much. Jerroot, Cary suggested that since I have the SLP98P it would be better to get Cardas Caps and new Hexfreds, than to have the gain and feedback altered since the SLP98P has su... | |
| Tubes Do It -- Transistors Don't. I had a nice Mac 7270 hooked to a Cary SLP98P then went to a Cary V12R big difference, and an even bigger difference when I got a Cary CAD 120's. I like SS too, but to me nothing beats tubes. I've heard SS amps that cost lots more that sounded gre... | |
| Linn Classic vs Linn Majik Seperates are usually better. I had an all Linn system, and a Classik. The all in one is excellent and you can add another amp to it. Used in the best condition you can find is the best way to go with Linn. New retail Linn is way way over priced. ... | |
| To Power Down, or Not to Power Down Jerroot, thanks for your help. Maybe I'll get the upgrade since I'm shipping it back to Cary anyway. I'll take a chance, why not Columbus did. Thanks again the article was interesting and I should be set with years again. I wonder how to keep the ... | |
| To Power Down, or Not to Power Down If it's more than 3 hours I power down. I have a Cary CAD 120's The 3 year warranty runs out at the end of the month. I have to send it back because the right channel is out. I think a cap. Jerroot, did you have yours upgraded or buy the Mk II. I ... | |
| Percentage of cable cost I've had Kimber 4TC 8TC, Morrow SP3 SP4, now have Nordost Blue Heaven. Like them all, but their no better than Best Buy or Radio Shack. The sound is the SAME! Get over it. If you want to spend money for nothing, go ahead. | |
| One sub or two? Just bought 2 M&K 150 watt 8'' subs. 2 will spread throught the room better. And, at 190.00 each, the deal was good. Sometimes I use just 1 for AB comparison, but I'm glad I got 2 small subs instead of 1 big sub, at lease for 2 channel. | |
| Warning: Linn tonearm anti-skate not accurate Float the arm and level it correctly, then put the cart on with a mint LP or other good protractor. I had an Ekos and 2 Ittok LVII's and a Basik LVX and never had a problem. Set the anti-skate a bit lower than VTF. 1.7g for VTF. Best of luck. | |
| UNIQUE KHARMA ONLY ONE MADE OF BAMBOO Elizabeth is right. Less is more! Less for you more for them. | |
| Oil For Nottingham Spacedeck? The oil's viscosity may be different. There are other oils cheaper to use, but will it affect the speed (faster with thinner oil or slower with heavier oil)? | |
| Linn Basik LVX to ?? for XX2 MkII Marktrav, let me know if you need a good Ittok LVII mstangt1965@verizon.net |
