| What is a passive preamp? As I stated earlier, you can call a linestage a preamp if you want. A lot of people do including myself. | |
| What is a passive preamp? I am trying to be nice Herman but obviously you are one of those people that will not admit it when they are wrong so let's stop even discussing the subject. You can be right if you say you are. But ARC as an example names all of their preamps wit... | |
| What is a passive preamp? Not true Herman, only passive devices are used to attenuate. A preamp or linestage amplifies the signal. Therefore they are actually amplifiers in their own right. Which is the reason a passive device lacks dynamics in most instances. By the way, ... | |
| What is a passive preamp? I knew you were joking when you said preamp meant before the amp Herman. Come on you had to be. You don't call speakers postamps do you? | |
| What is a passive preamp? Just trying to answer the question correctly. I don't give crap whether anyone likes the answer or not. Maybe I just can't understand the english language. I have a question. What is a linestage? | |
| What is a passive preamp? Herman, you are wrong. A real preamp contains a phono stage. Look at Audio Research for example. None of their linestages are called a preamps unless there is a phono stage.From the Audio Research Data Base:pre·am·pli·fi·er (prmpl-fr)Preamplifier ... | |
| What is a passive preamp? It's not really a preamp without a phono stage. And it can't really be called a preamp if it doesn't pre-amplify. It would really be a passive linestage. | |
| What's Toshiba replacing the Toshiba HD XA2 with? Cyto you seem to forget about Toshiba paying millions to Paramount to drop BluRay. Hell HD was even backed by Microsoft, that in itself is reason enough to drop it.Sure Sony has made many mistakes. And I am not an apologist for them. Their quality... | |
| What's Toshiba replacing the Toshiba HD XA2 with? I see your point Cyto but if HD DVD was so good why did so many of the first ones not work? Yes, they were cheaper to build but that's because the technology was dated. As far as SACD support it would be nice but a separate laser would probably be... | |
| Jethro Tull...any cd's to stay away from? Ian stated Tull recorded Aqualung at the same place and time Led Zep recorded their fourth album and they had the large studio and Zep had the small cramped studio in an old converted church. The rest is history. | |
| Jethro Tull...any cd's to stay away from? Aqualung was a bad recording from the beginning. Even Ian Anderson has mentioned how bad it sounds due to the recording venue. | |
| What's Toshiba replacing the Toshiba HD XA2 with? I just don't get the under 400.00 crap. Does everyone want to have the cheapest DVD player they can find? There is no way to make an inexpensive player without leaving something out. By the way, Sony isn't the only company building BluRay players ... | |
| Denon's new Blu-Ray player Thanks for clearing things up Z. I'll run right out and get one, not. | |
| Jethro Tull...any cd's to stay away from? The only ones I don't really care for are Too Old to Rock"n"Roll Too Young To Die, and perhaps Under Wraps even though there are a few good songs on it. Some of the later ones I find really good are Crest of A Knave, J-Tull Dot Com, The Christmas ... | |
