| What is the affect of cd player? Magfan- those cables are excellant as you are finding out;Ralph from Atmasphere recommends Mogami as well and I found they are a real hidden secret for sure.When it came to cd player for me the only way I could make a decision was to do home audit... | |
| SS Preamp with Tube Amp? I ran a Klyne 6LX3p pre amp with vtl 225's,manley ref 440/200 and cary slam 100's with excellant results;unless there is a gross mismatch of preamp to amp mating I don't see why your plan would not work;also Buconero117 idea of a loaner from a dea... | |
| VTL amps warm up time My experiences were with the VTL 225 monoblocks which seem to take about 1 hour to finally settle in and sound first class. | |
| integra dhc-9.9 or onkyo pr-sc866 Dave; I don't think you can go wrong with the odyssey amps as Klaus is very straight shooter in Audio;in my opinion he is the solid state version of Ralph from Atmasphere audio; probally 2 of the best guys to deal with in audio as had been my expe... | |
| SET amp w/Neg feedback? Ralph;is there a speaker that performs well in your opinion that operates within both of paradigms you mentioned;just wanted to hear your view on those types of speakers. | |
| Tired of HT I have to agree with both Kennyt and Maineiac; combining systems can be acheived with proper selection of electronics and is extremely enjoyable;but I can see it both ways;don't know which is right or wrong but your ears will let you know. | |
| Tired of HT What goal with the sound are you looking for;such as the magic of tubes or that solid bass that solid state is known for although tubes can do it also;maybe you might want to try tubes or a hybrid power amp. | |
| tube amp repair If you don't mind sending the unit for repair Bob & Gary Backert of RHB Sound Design in PA and for west coast I would check out Scott Franklin In San Jose CA. | |
| speakers that rock I would suggest either snell C4's or C5's if interested in floor standing speakers. | |
| Odyssey, ATI or W4S Amp for Maggie 1.6R For amps I think the odyssey would work well;I am not familiar with the others mentioned;For a processor the intregra is a excellant recommendationand I think you should take a look at the emotiva line as well;they have a program in which when you... | |
| Speaker Recommendations for Soundstage and Imaging I have to agree with br3098 with being at least 3 ft from the back wall;but I don't understand Tbg comments on planars or ribbons as they don't image;I have to disagree on that point.Maybe a pair of merlin monitors might work for you;there was a p... | |
| Speaker Recommendations for Soundstage and Imaging What amps are you going to use and how big is the room? | |
| Miss my Dunlavy Speakers, Were to go... I had dunlavy scIII's; maybe a pair of merlins might work for you;I had a pair of merlin 4b+'s before the scIII's and they were very close in sound;now the merlin line is even more refined and they might fit your requirements. | |
| The Most Musical Class A/B Power Amplifier?? I would look at Odyssey amps and talk with klaus;he can also set biasing more into class A on his amps as well;also they have a 20 year transferrable warranty a nice reselling option.I also vote to audition the belles and mccormack amps. | |
| my tubes are hissing non - stop If your cd player can be directly connected to the amps I would try that to see if the problem is still there,if gone then the pre amp would be suspect;did you rotate a new pair of innerconnects to see if that is the problem;mostly not in my opini... |
