Thank you. @mike_in_nc Good one. And relevant. @gdnrbob Coincidentally, I did chat with Mr. Rutan a few... | |
| Do power supply units/cables make a difference in sound quality? This place is often at least as funny as the best of Saturday Night Live. Over and out. | |
| Do power supply units/cables make a difference in sound quality? One of the funniest posts I've read recently on A'gon was from someone extolling the virtues of his new power cord that cost more than the his top of the line (read: very expensive) integrated amplifier. | |
| New Luxman 507Z Integrated coming in October. Luxman is still assembling their Class A 550AXII. I ordered one a couple of weeks ago. It's the 590 that they've discontinued. | |
| Audio Research I/50 @malibu457 ah, but how does it sound? +1 | |
| After years of separates, I'm going integrated. Anyone else do the same? Now that I'm "on a separates roll" maybe I'll even go from my tube integrated to a Luxman with built-in DAC card. :). Then it's just 3 components: The Lux, the CDP, and the TT. One less set of IC's, and no spare tubes. @bigtex22, ain't clea... | |
| After years of separates, I'm going integrated. Anyone else do the same? I finally sold my wonderful tube separates. It was a decision that I considered for at least two years, one which I finally made. The upside is that I greatly prefer the cleaner and simpler appearance of my listening room. The ease of operation an... | |

| “Faithful to the recording” @lordmelton How' bout "neutral?" :) | |

| Connecting monoblock tube amps to single subwoofer. There are but two kinds of people in this and other worlds, the yup's and the nope's | |
| Connecting monoblock tube amps to single subwoofer. ieales 953 posts 03-31-2022 at 06:41am I figured REL knows their products a lot better than I do. @ ieales: Possibly. *********** Oh no sir, Not "possibly" but absolutely. I can assure you that REL does indeed know their produc... | |
| I miss my Loudness Button and Tone Controls.... OP: Just go for it. It's your room, your ears, and what you prefer your music to sound like. I bet even the basic Loki would do you just fine. Good luck, and the heck with self-styled "purists." There is are endless variables on the user end. ... | |
| McIntosh -- good for show, not for sound, says dealer Does anyone really think that McIntosh gives even one tiny flea fart about Mr. Mikey? :) | |
| Connecting monoblock tube amps to single subwoofer. When I was running a pair of mono tube amps, the tech I contacted at REL was adamant that I run my single T5 in mono, from a single amp only. The red and yellow wire twisted together and attached to the 8-ohm speaker tap and the black wire to the ... |
