| Joule Electra LA150 MkII or Lamm LL2 Deluxe? I have owned both I have chosen the Joule 150 MKII. They are both excellent but I prefer the Joule because it has remote control, one volume control, and I feel produces a bigger soundstage. I have no idea if the tubes are available elsewhere but ... | |
| Will the new C.A.T. LEGEND be the ultimate preamp? Strapper211, good to see a real life sighting. I assume, rightly or wrongly, that you previously owned the SL1 Ultimate, do you find the improvements in both the linestage and phono stage equally? | |
| Most important component?? markwatkiss, i agree the source is all important, but if (if) most players are technically excellent and differ little, the choice of which to choose is of less priority in seeking good sound, whereas speakers and the rooms they are used are highl... | |
| Most important component?? Is the reason CD players, as opposed to Cd/redcordings, rank so low becasue there is relatively little variability in their quality and level of competence to do their job? | |
| Will the new C.A.T. LEGEND be the ultimate preamp? I see what you mean. I still get the sense that nobody actually owns one at home. The CAT Sl1 Ultimate MKII seemed to be a very evolved and perfected execution of that design and meeting with Ken's objectives for the type of sound and perfomance h... | |
| EL34 Lovers? The Quicksilver Mid Mono or Triode are two other is amps on my EL34 "hit" list. Aside from the additional power of the RM9 (the QSs are 50 watts), which is proabably not necessary with my Merlin VSMs, the three amps would seem to be good ones to c... | |
| Will the new C.A.T. LEGEND be the ultimate preamp? Does anyone actually own this pre, or was it jusy a demo piece at a show? | |
| Will the new C.A.T. LEGEND be the ultimate preamp? Second. | |
| Herron VTSP 2 or First Sound PreAmps Teck5, do you feel any closer to choosing between the two? I get the feeling that you are not going to get a definitive answer; there proabably isn't one, as they both seem to be very well thought of. | |
| Will the new C.A.T. LEGEND be the ultimate preamp? Who are you asking? | |
| Will the new C.A.T. LEGEND be the ultimate preamp? bump = any new impressions? | |
| Damping factor or watts? I don't know anything about the technical stuff, I do know that my speakers need low damping to sound their best 9they are almost universally used with tube amps), preferably around 10, much higher and the bass sounds choked, with pther speakers y... | |
| EL34 Lovers? I am told that the importance of the L versus the standard is that in my circuit it is produce better bass presence compared with other EL34s (more solid and tuneful - the amp is suprisingly good in the bass department). The amp also runs Class A ... | |
| Cary 805, deHavilland or Atma-Sphere? Anyone cares Sounds like a quick divorce. | |
| EL34 Lovers? Not sure how to ask this, but is it not possible that a circuit is designed for a particular version/brand of a tube - in my case the JJ EL34L, and that the sound of the amp takes that tube into account ("voiced"?). In other words, I'm questioning... |
