| Best preamp for my Krell FPB 600 The ML 38S is an excellent preamp and will sound fine in ANY system! | |
| Aerial Acoustics Model 9 Roy Allison used this boundary effect in designing his speakers. | |
| Aerial Acoustics Model 9 In theory a woofer will have its flattest response when located near a surface (wall or floor). My Snell Type A's have a woofer at the bottom of the cabinet and require placement against the front wall. So they take advantage of this boundary effe... | |

| Looking for vintage Quad ESL's - or my wife thinks a "shrink" becase she says I'm crazy! If you are intent on using the Latino amps then the later Quad 988 or 989's would be a better choice, as they already have protection circuitry! | |
| Looking for vintage Quad ESL's - or my wife thinks a "shrink" becase she says I'm crazy! Your Bob Latino tube amps would be a mite too powerful for the 57's - unless some protection circuitry was added. No more than 20 volts peak was the factory recommendation! A Dynaco ST70 would be ideal - pp EL34's with 35 watts output. I have two ... | |
| Looking for vintage Quad ESL's - or my wife thinks a "shrink" becase she says I'm crazy! I live in an apartment so my Quad 57's remain in storage until I can free up some more space! I bought my first pair in 1982 and kept them in use for 19 years (until I stupidly sold them!). The amplifier I used for all that time was the Bedini 25/... | |
| Looking for vintage Quad ESL's - or my wife thinks a "shrink" becase she says I'm crazy! In my collection I have: Quad 57's (two pairs), Quad 303 (upgraded), Hafler 101, Linn Sondek/Grace 707. These components (old as they may be!) put together make a great-sounding system! So I recommend buying a pair of Quad's in good condition (m... | |
| calling all Guru;s, Ideas on audiophyle high effeiciency speakers solicited I can speak from experience, owning a NYAL Moscode 150 (half the power of the 300)! | |
| calling all Guru;s, Ideas on audiophyle high effeiciency speakers solicited Contrary to untutored belief tubes are NOT inherently better than transistors! I own many amps of both types! Your 803D2's are truly excellent speakers and capable of better sound than ANY high-sensitivity types. I can recommend a New York Audio L... | |

| Is a SUT needed? A good quality SUT is IMO the best way to amplify the low output (<1 mv) of mc cartridges with adding any noise! My first transformer was a Verion P designed by Mitchell Cotter. This was back in 1977 and my mc cartridge was the GAS Sleeping Bea... | |
| Suitable affordable speakers for Cary Cad 805AE Letting your Cary SET amps transformers get hot will damage them eventually! Warm is acceptable - NOT HOT! Too much current going through that iron! Find a tech that can check the operating condition of the amps (leaky coupling caps ...). And the ... | |
| Your Favorite High Quality Audio Bulk Cable Manufacturer? Mogami Blue Neglex 2477 coax OFC. I bought a 40 ft piece for $40 (1979), cut it in half and used it on my KLH Nines for 23 years! Lost it in a move. Wish I could get some more now! | |
