| Lightspeed Attenuator - Best Preamp Ever? Reliability is golden. I certainly would not be interested in paying 3x for remote - I'm really not that lazy:) What about the idea of LDRs at the amp input - no IC? Endler Style Attenuators with the superior Lightspeed LDR attenuator. | |
| Lightspeed Attenuator - Best Preamp Ever? On the famous DIY thread, it appears that have some tried the remote route, but it requires some drift from the purity of sound you get without it. I would be willing to go with a manual "Endler" approach, but it would be a bit inconvenient gettin... | |
| Lightspeed Attenuator - Best Preamp Ever? I like it:) | |
| best class a amp for a grand? I think they are all A/AB. | |
| Lightspeed Attenuator - Best Preamp Ever? George, this may be an odd question to ask a designer, but can you envision any future implementation that might sound even better in a passive friendly environment (no need for gain or buffer)on the LSA? I mean sonics. Sure cosmetics could evolve... | |
| Digitalmeisters - Thoughts on Olive..... Thank you Sakahara. | |
| Designer Hall of Fame That's very true, you don't see that kind of protean talent very often, perhaps Nelson Pass comes closest to that across the board talent. Not only across product categories, but the incredible number of circuit approaches - the man is unbelievabl... | |
| best class a amp for a grand? That would be fine. You would need an F5 or J or J2 or M2 - I think the other ones would be under powered. I do think clone is the wrong word, they are Nelson Pass originals and further refinements upon the orignal Aleph 3 and 30, especially the J... | |
| best class a amp for a grand? Pass Aleph is MUCH more likely to come up for sale (plentiful) and capacitors should be in much better shape, if not replaced, than the Fortes that come up. You mentioned Belles, but I can't think of a Class A Belles that would come in at the pric... | |
| Lightspeed Attenuator - Best Preamp Ever? That's what I have:) The battery test is next! | |
| Lightspeed Attenuator - Best Preamp Ever? linear and regulated - whatever that means. | |
| Mapletree 4SE vs. TAD 150 signature best sound??? Not familiar with the TAD, but the Mapletree sounds ALOT better than its price would suggest. Made by a retired Professor of electrical engineering, it seems to be a no BS product with a lot of good circuit and overall design behind it. Not audio ... | |
| Lightspeed Attenuator - Best Preamp Ever? I have a wallwart I purchased from Circuit-Test. It is 12VDC, 400mA, and is a linear power supply. Absent a battery PS which may sound better, is that all I need in an AC adapter? | |
| Designer Hall of Fame There seem to be many, many folks that we admire and have made contributions to the art/science of audio. But since the Hall does not exist (yet), try to think of it as having to select 5 for the inaugural inductees - truly the best of the best. W... | |
| Legacy SE versus Vandersteen Quatros "In that sense, then, I seek a speaker system/speaker which allows poor recordings to sound holisitically better. So, I think perhaps we are in agreement."I understand how you mean it, and I agree. |
