| What equipment uses 5687 tubes? Ray Samuels B52 uses them. | |
| 326S vs. 32 ref Not really an answer to your question, but I had the 32 ref at one time and didn't think it was too much of an upgrade from a $2500 Threshold T3 that it replaced. I think the 32 was overpriced for the sound. I've since moved on to tube preamps and... | |
| Speakers to hang on to for LIFE I don't think my Lahave Mela monitors are going anywhere as long an I'm alive. Awesome monitor, with tight tuneful bass, pure mids, sweet highs. I could mistake them for a top-notch floorstander in the dark from the full sound of them. (But they a... | |
| Do Thiel Audio CS3.7 Rock? Thanks unsound. Yep, had a Pass X350 many years ago. Brilliant vocals, pure as anything. But too much heat for my small room. Edge almost as pure, with more refined, solid, transparent bass. (I hear the later Pass amps have improved bass, but just... | |
| Do Thiel Audio CS3.7 Rock? Does anyone think the Thiel 3.7 would mate well with an Edge NL12.1 amp (and a warm tubed preamp)? Thanks. | |
| How is the newest Audio Horizons 2.3 preamp? I'm bumping this.No comments yet?The original Audio Horizons preamp thread was almost the mother of all threads (except of course for the CD Player Shootout in San Diego of course which seemed to last a generation).Thanks in advance. | |
| Esoteric K-01 Well, my XDS1 sounds pretty awesome & natural & un-analytical with a Hydra V-Ray, Shunyata Anaconda Helix powercord, and a little nicer and fuller through the XLR outputs with Stealth Indra ICs. | |
| Best Speakers at RMAF 2011...? Yep, someone who's opinion I respect immensely said Wilson finally got the Watt/Puppy right with the Sashas. I always thought the WP could be great if not for it's fatal flaws with rough sandpaper vocals and almost buzzy strings and over-jazzy bra... | |
| Best Speakers at RMAF 2011...? Were any vocals played on the Wilson Sasha's? How were they?I always had problems with Watt/Puppy vocals (too mechanical).Thanks. | |
| Esoteric K-01 Anyone compared the K-01 to the EMM XDS1?The XDS1 sounds really nice right out of the box.'never heard the Esoteric. | |
| Dude's 6SN7 replacements with Chinese CV-181/6SN7 I like Brimar 6ns7 tubes. | |
| Opinion on Edge amps My Edge NL12.1 is very fine *IF* there is a good tube preamp in front of it with good vintage tubes.I'm a former Pass X350 owner. | |
| Joseph Audio RM7XL I attended the NY Stereophile several times (when it was current a few years back, 2000-2005) and I always felt the Joseph audio room was among best of show with their floorstanders. A nice balanced sound with great texture and a sound I could eas... | |
| Apogee stage manual speaker distance chart It may be hard to believe, but I had my Stages about 18 inches from the wall behind them for the best sound, and they were best on the long wall, firing across the room, not down the center, almost monitor-like. I didn't measure, but I just used m... | |
| The Best Audiophile Earphones headphones and Amp By the way, if anyone gets an LCD2 headphone, the Q-Cable replacement cable really helps things out, with much more resolved and tighter bass and adding a lot of overall refinement and faigue-free sound. |
