| What tube amp are you using with Von Schweikert VR series speakers I've used a Conrad Johnson Classic 120SE with great synergy driving my VR7HSE | |
| Do I really need a Dac? A new Benchmark HGC might be the answer, but I'm speculating based on their reputation and claims they're making for the new DAC. I know I'll get one ASAP.$500 for a digital cable? Will all due respect, that's ridiculous in this day and age and wi... | |
| Impedance Mismatch: A.I. M3A, Krell KSA100 Yeah, but it depends whether that 1.2K is over the entire audioband. If, say, below 100Hz preamp's output impedance gets higher (I believe Stereophile showed that to be the case for the Aesthetix preamp), then an amp with the input impedance of 22... | |
| Spectron Musician III - Can anyone comment on it? Hi Rafael,Not yet. The guy does good quality work at a reasonable price so he's swamped with orders. I also made a couple of changes to the original design. I heard of a couple of very highly regarded preamps using DHTs so I asked Nicholas what he... | |
| Spectron Musician III - Can anyone comment on it? Spectron's sound, in my system, in my view and based on my experience is simply an open window into the music. First thing that people comment on when they hear my system, people who know nothing about stereo systems but know a thing about good mu... | |
| Tubed Pre match with a Spectron Musician IIISE? Sure, I will write a review of that preamp once I receive it. It will be made using signature double c-cores throughout, relay based remote control, mundorf silver-oil caps in the power supply, no caps in the signal path (transformer coupled). I d... | |
| Tubed Pre match with a Spectron Musician IIISE? Been thinking myself about that, too. I had a First Sound preamp which I really liked, however my ideal preamp to mate with a pair of Spectron M3 SEP will have to have:- 6SN7 tubes, as I like this family more than the 6922 family. In ultimate term... | |
| Spectron Musician 3 First Impressions? I also took delivery of a pair of Spectron M3 SE but I haven't had the chance to hook them up in monoblock mode. In fact, I'm just listening to a single amp in stereo mode at the moment. The first thing I noticed when connecting the amp was how qu... | |
| Von Schweikerts or Coincidents or ? Rhyno, thanks for the valuable tip on the crossovers. However, until I get a 2-way for a second system this doesn't apply to my already good primary system using full range speakers, but don't you think more 2-way spk users (Merlin's) deserve to g... | |
| Von Schweikerts or Coincidents or ? Rhyno, you make several good points that I agree with, it's your bias the thing I disagree with. To each his own most of the time, but in our little audiophile world I find that, based on my first hand experience, your bias against Mr. Von Upgrade... | |
| Von Schweikerts or Coincidents or ? <<< how many friggin models and upgrades can one guy have >>>I guess as many as he can handle, so what's your problem with the guy designing speakers bearing the Von Schweikert name, Eggleston and so forth, and then improving the... | |
