New tubes in Rogue M-180 Monoblocks Dhcod, Are these tubes KT120s? | |
12' x 14' room; $10k budget for speakers; help I agree that Digital Room Correction would be good idea in such a small space. The DSPeaker Dual Core 2.0 I just installed did wonders to the bass in my 13x15 room. As for speaker options, maybe check out the Von Schwekert VR-22, VR-33, or VR-35. ... | |
What makes a good piece of audio gear ? In order of importance: 1) Good circuit/crossover design.2) Parts choices (and spending your parts budget on the parts of the circuit where quality parts will make the most difference). I will also add that in my experience a good power supply in ... | |
The best preamp for Rouge M-180 The 6moons review of the 36.5 is fairly comprehensive IIRC. While not a tip-to-tail balanced design, the Modwright LS100 might also be worth looking at. And the Wyred4Sound preamp also gets a lot of praise. I was very close to buying the W4S when ... | |
New tubes in Rogue M-180 Monoblocks As I mentioned, the bias meter on the Stereo 90 reads 5mA low. As is stated in the Stereo 90 manual. I don't know about the other Rogue models. But for the Stereo 90, when the meter reads 35mA, the actual value is 40mA. And an actual value of 40mA... | |
New tubes in Rogue M-180 Monoblocks On the issue of the recommended bias for KT120s, in the Stereo 90, the bias meters are off by 5mA (as stated in the manual), so to bias to Rogue's recommended 40mA, the meter should read 35mA. | |
The best preamp for Rouge M-180 Hmmm, I have been very pleased with my Musical Fidelity kW linestage with my Rogue Stereo 90 (and with everything it has been paired with). A hybrid pre with a big meaty power supply and very very low output impedance. Not balanced though. And I s... | |
Anyone listen to Zu Audio's Definition Mk3? I'd swap 'em. More important to have left and right matched instead of top and bottom | |
Looking for suggestions on a used Oppo You likely won't be able to find a used Blu-Ray Oppo for $200. But you could get the DVD ones for that price. The DVD players are aslo very easy to make region free. | |
My Dynavector DV 20 x---High or Low? I'd try contacting Mike Pranka at Dynavector USA. He should be able to help. | |
What frequency do I crossover subs This will depend a lot on the slopes of your speakers and subs. And yes, I agree that an SPL meter would help here. They are not expensive. Can't speak to the quality of them, but there are even SPL meter apps for iPhone and Android. | |
ZYX R100 Fuji From the Sorasound webpage: "If you purchase a ZYX cartridge from an un-authorized party (ex. grey market), your cartridge will have no warranty."I'd look into whether this seller is an authorized dealer, and authorized to sell to the US. I would ... | |
Can I connect DAC directly to amp? In general, volume control in the analog domain is considered preferable to volume control done digitally. Less loss of information that way, especially where a lot of attenuation is used. I just grabbed a DSPeaker Dual Core that has analog volume... | |
Best Phono Cable for Ortofon MC Anna Good to know Pani. This cable came with my Moerch DP-6 and I have been wondering if I would benefit from an upgrade to a more expensive cable. Looks like I will be trying cables that offer an audition/return option. | |
Pass XP-15 Phono Stage Might want to ask Mark at Reno HiFi if you don't get any answers here. Great guy to deal with. A favorite dealer. |
