Dynaco ST-70
I'm using a VanAlstine Super PAS3si (modified by Tom Tutay). Toms mods opened up the Super PAS3si and extended the top end without any brighness. I also got a wider soundstage and deeper soundstage as a result of the mods.The original unit replace...

My Odyssey Stratos Extreme---It has Arrived
I don't know what speakers you have but even the older units are smooth and musical. Yes, the amps are impressive. It works well with electrostatic, ribbons and dynamic speakers too. Mine was wonderful on my Alon I MKII's. Excellent soundstage and...

Best replacement capacitor for the Dynaco A25?
I don't remember the values for the A25's but Solen's are very inexpensive and don't take forever to break in. Plus Madisound has some Clarity caps that start low and prices increase from there that are excellent. The tweeter in the A25 is very go... 
Scott Nixon Tubedac = WOW
Hello fellow SN fans. You have experienced what owners of the Scott Nixon Tube DAC have been reporting for a long while. I have a friend that has tried almost every dac you can think of under $2,500. He ended up with a SN Tub DAC. He didn't stop t... 
Good speakers for a small room?
All very worthy products mentioned. Spica TC60's are a little better on detail than the TC50 but very smiliar sound indeed, ET LFT16's, Spendor, Harbeth, and there have been mention of Mordaunt Short Carnival around $250 to $300 a pair. Thay have ... 
which amplifier best for von schweikert speaker?
I owned a pair of VonSchweikert VR3's a year ago. The amp that really made them sing in my room was the Odyssey Stratos. Usually found on these pages from $500 on up. No transistoritis whatso ever. I'm sure it will out perform the B&K. The Str... 
wharfedale speakers/sp-87 and mfm 5 vs klipsch
Stanman I have owned the Wharfs (SP87). The Klipsch will have more detail in the midrange and cleaner highs. I'm a Klipsch Heritage fan moreso than the models you mention. With the equipment you have and in a Home Theater setup the Wharfs may put ... 
Cassette deck enthusiasts......
Look for the 682 with dolby B & C. The 680, 681, ZX7, 1000, and nearly all the Nakamichi Decks sound very very good. The 680 had a 1/2 speed selection. The 582 or the 500 series that had all the adjustments was a great deck which led to the 67... 
Dahlquist DQ 10 help.
The DQ10's require an amp that can deliver good muscle. A high current 100 watt amp should drive them well. The 200 watt rating means that a flat response (with not added bass or treble) your speakers will handle approxiamately 200 watts. It doesn... 
Speakers for Odyssey Stratos Extreme monos
I agree with some of the points the other responders have made. I have had experience with several speakers that those amps sound wonderful with. Alon and the Odyssey amps are a very good match, giving a very refined sound. Magnepans do well with ...
