| the tough question: Which preamplifier? and why Now that the slap fight is over, I stand corrected the pv10 is 800 ohms and the Mac is 10Kohms so the 10 to 1 ratio applies... | |
| the tough question: Which preamplifier? and why That's what I thought lower output impedance for lower input but this one shocked me. I'm using MIT 350 ref 1 meter which has a higher capacitance I believe. | |
| the tough question: Which preamplifier? and why Larryi hit the nail on the head. This has certainly been my experience time and again. My most recent example is a CJ pv10 and premier 14. While the 14 was under repair I put my spare pv10 in and the result was an incredible improvement. They were... | |
| can thiel cs 2.4 rock Chuck, I'll tell you what amazed me is how well albums from the 70's sound on vinyl and how thin and metallic some of them sound on CD, almost second rate in many cases! It reminds me of the transfer we did in my younger days from vinyl to cassett... | |
| can thiel cs 2.4 rock Thiels can rock like crazy! My 3.6's have rocked for 10 years. If you have done any research you know they have to be fed properly! My recommendation is good clean SS amplification, tube preamp, and a high quality front end that is not in the "ult... | |

| Speaker cable improvements Psacanli, I wouldn't attempt to upgrade your cables - besides I can't imagine how that would work without changing the networks out completely. I think the newer MIT's are more revealing but don't have the texture like the older models like yours ... | |
| Arm for Basis 2200? I'm using a Hadcock 228 export, it is also a drop in with the adapter ring that comes with the tonearm. The set screw in the table secures the arm to the table. I am very happy with this arm and the 2200 sig and have no plans to change until I put... | |
| Is cable synergy important? I've never had luck with long term satisfaction with one cable brand from start to finish, even networked cables like MIT. I do have a preference with the preamp to amp connection and it is MIT 350 SG EVO. Everything else is fair game and it keeps... | |
| Kimber Silver, Hybrid, or Copper....preference? I have extensive experience with 1011, 1021, 1030, and 3035. My favorite IC is 1021, in my system it offers both qualities of the 1011 and 1030 but either alone is just too much for me. Although, the 1011's I could live with easily. | |
| Coldplay on Quad 988 I've bought 2 coldplay albums because my wife likes them, it was a total waste of money....unlistenable. | |
| anyone else hate locking RCAs? Couldn't agree more, the nexgen are a real PITA, 1 quarter turn and the barrel falls off! | |
| Any cable suggestions for my Thiel 2.4's? I don't have purist audio experience either though have considered it in the past. I have owned several cables with my Thiels: Alpha Core MI2, Straightwire Maestro II, Audience AU24, Kimber 8TC, Kimber Select 3035, Kimber Monocle, MIT oracle, magn... |
