| Top Ten Interconnects of all time... MIT Shotgun series - Impedance matching series. Best I've heard. | |
| Tubed pre-amp for solid state amp? I have used a CJ PV10 first with an Adcom amp and for the last 4 years or so a Classe CA200. I think tube pre with ss amp is a perfect combo. The PV10 is outstanding IMO. | |
| what is everybody listening to right now Any selection of John Lee Hooker, Keith Richards, Bob Dylan "Time out of Mind", Classic Yes, Cowboy Junkies "Miles from our Home", Tracey Chapman "Crossroads", Eric Clapton "24 nights", Widespread Panic and Sheryl Crow all in heavy rotation. | |
| preamp for classe ca-200 CJ Premier 14 used for around 2K, or PV14LS which is new and won't ship into the marketplace according to CJ until late Oct. or Nov. It is replacing the PV12. If you really want to make out give a listen to the PV10. I recently had one with the CA... | |
| Power Snake Mamba vs. Synergistic Master Congratulations! You will not be disappointed! | |
| Any advice on CD player upgrade? It's hard to beat Meridian, the 508.24 is excellent, so is the 566 DAC which I have coupled with the 200 transport (same as the 508 just 2 boxes instead of 1). I still have the discontinued 263 bitstream DAC and it is outstanding also. I will say ... | |
| Power Snake Mamba vs. Synergistic Master Alexc, I did try the EEL on my transport and dac, when I did that I had to put the SR on the amp, the bass got a little heavy and slower. I prefer the EEL on the amp, it really changes the whole soundstage, ie, deeper, better imaging and increased... | |
| Hear ye! Thou who knowist thy speakers.. My advise would be - not necessarily in this order - Vandy 3A sig's, Proac 2.5's or if you can stretch to about 7K (what!!) the Proac 3.8's. These 3 speakers are really the only ones that really move me towards a purchase at this point. The 3.8's ... | |
| Power Snake Mamba vs. Synergistic Master Alexc, I have 2 Masters on my Meridian front end and a BMI EEL reference on my Classe amp. Both PC's are excellent, I think the BMI is superior, more clarity for sure, great bass and a better soundstage than the SR's on the amp. I'm very happy wit... | |
| MIT and tubes I use MIT IC's and speaker cables with CJ preamp and Classe amp, it the best sound I have ever had. | |
| classe and goertz m2 veracity not compat If your amp is overheating to the point of shuting down then there is a problem with the amp, not the cables. I've used several cables with my CA 200 with no problem. This amp does run hot however. | |
| classe ca 200 running too hot? Got nothing to do with it, useless advice. | |
| classe ca 200 running too hot? Pehare, mine runs hot to the touch also and I've never had any trouble. | |
| Should I buy used classe ca-200? Absolutely, guaranteed you will be happy. If not I might buy it - I'm considering getting another one to go dual mono. | |
| The BEST system you've ever built !!!! Hey Albertporter, can I be your friend? I'll bring the bourbon. And to the rest of you whinny, sniveling, little "my system sounds better than yours" baby asses, get some new material and get a life! GEEZ!! |
