| Rega P5 Upgrade:TTPSU,Platter Or Subplatter? TT PSU is a turntable power supply unit which makes sure the platter turns at a constant 33 1/3 rpm. While I don't have a Rega TT from what I have read and there is plenty of information out there this upgrade is a good one. I see no reason why it... | |
| Primaluna Dialogue Premium HP Driving PSB Imagine T2s Yes to retube your HP to KT150 is expensive and only you can decide whether its worth it. Keep your eyes out for gently used to tubes which may help the billfold lol. I will eventually roll back in my other power tubes as it is fun to experiment w... | |
| Primaluna Dialogue Premium HP Driving PSB Imagine T2s I'm pushing Tyler Acoustics Highland series of speakers with my Primaluna Dialogue integrated with no issues at all. They are 89db and I have used a variety of power tubes (EL34, KT77, KT88, KT120 and now KT150). None of the tubes ever strained bu... | |
| $2000 turntable system Leotis I currently have some Cifte 12au7 in the front two slots and they really opened up the sound. However, I feel like the bass output is diminished somewhat especially since the KT150's should be pumping out some really good bass. Not that th... | |
| $2000 turntable system I just put in some KT150's a couple of nights ago and WOW!!! Freaking awesome power tubes and so far the best yet. My next step is to put in the Mullard CV4003 but I wanted to get a feel for the KT150's first. | |
| Primaluna Dialogue Premium HP Driving PSB Imagine T2s Have you asked Upscale Audio or Kevin Deal as he is the US importer of Primaluna and quite the expert? What is the efficiency of your PSB’s? | |
| An amp to drive Thiel CS3.7's? A friend of mine drives his 3.7's with a ARC Ref 110 tube amp and they sound fantastic with plenty of drive and bass. Plus he may sell the ARC due to downsizing. Honestly if I could afford the amp I would buy it in a heartbeat. One of the better ... | |
| New KT150 tubes? Not sure that statement is true or it's subjective but what kind of KT88 is Kevin Hayes referring to? I have some EH KT88 and tried them in my Primaluna Dialogue and didn't care for them at all. The TS KT120 sounded better and that wasn't saying m... | |
| Sutherland Insight vs Sutherland 20/20 for VPI Scout 1.1 You might want to ask this question to Kevin Deal at Upscale Audio as he sells both VPI and Sutherland. I have your turntable and a Sutherland PH3D and experiencing good results. | |
| Looking for SACD player............ I know Modwright has been doing mods for a long time and get great reviews but I would be very reluctant to spend much money on mods as you NEVER get a good return on resale. | |
| two Levinson no. 29 VS one Levinson 23.5? I have never heard the 23.5 but have owned the ML 29, 27,27.5 and had a 331.5 on loan. They each bring a different dimension. Have never heard the 29 in bridged mode. I think you have to ask yourself what are you missing and what are you looking ... | |
| To Power Condition or Not to Power Condition? My Running Springs Haley made a substantial improvement in my system. Less grunge, blacker backgrounds, more air and hear deeper into the music. | |
| What's going on with the audio market? Lots of great responses here. Obviously its a combination of several things such as format changes, economy, baby boomers getting older and their kids not catching on to 2 channel audio, outrages prices, saturation, etc... One thing I do think is... |
