Looking To Match A Tube Amp With A Pair Of Audio Note AN-K/Spe Considering a Decware Tori II MkV for my K's. Atmasphere's comments were influencing on this thread. Have certainly decided that a 20-40W pentode design is a good path. Keeping in mind the K's are in a 12x26 room go with KT 66, 77, or 6L6 for an "... | |
King Crimson Ah the cheerful insanity | |
King Crimson Like Doc I was at the Beacon in NYC. First time I ever saw a band fronted by three drum kits. Fripp has always been the driving force and a tremendous talent. If you wish to explore further in the catalogue I would recommend Larks' Tongues In Aspi... | |
CD transports; do they really matter I'd rather stand before my stacks as if in a library to decide what I'm going to listen to next than screw around with an I-pad. | |
Looking To Match A Tube Amp With A Pair Of Audio Note AN-K/Spe Food for thought and thanks for the response Atmasphere. Vu's tube preferences for the K's were 300B's and 6L6's. That conversation and your comments bring something like the Canary M-90 to mind. Anyone had experience with that one? -Scott | |
Looking To Match A Tube Amp With A Pair Of Audio Note AN-K/Spe I just got off the phone with Vu. Whoever recommended that thank you. A most informative conversation. Keep in mind this thread started with me looking for better punch in the midrange. What I failed to mention was that I've been running this rig ... | |
Looking To Match A Tube Amp With A Pair Of Audio Note AN-K/Spe Hi Atmasphere, Thank you for your comments. Just to be clear since the K's are in a larger room (approx 30 x 12) you would prefer a push pull configuration. Correct? -Scott | |
Looking To Match A Tube Amp With A Pair Of Audio Note AN-K/Spe Thank you David. I'll look into that. -Scott | |
Looking To Match A Tube Amp With A Pair Of Audio Note AN-K/Spe Thanks again for the responses Larry. Based on what I'm looking for, your comments only reinforce the gameplan to go with a pair of Empress' when circumstances allow me to come into possession. Take Care, -Scott | |
Looking To Match A Tube Amp With A Pair Of Audio Note AN-K/Spe If you had to choose between a push-pull EL 84 at say 20W or an SET 2A3 say at 8W to push the K's what would you prefer? | |
Looking To Match A Tube Amp With A Pair Of Audio Note AN-K/Spe Thanks Larry, I'm also intrigued the Level 4 EL 84 kit that's available. Seem's that might be a good match for the K's in a 30x12 room. I listen primarily 8-10 feet away with proper toe in. -Scott | |
First tube preamp recommendations (under $5k) Given your price point I'll echo the Cary SLP-98 | |
Looking To Match A Tube Amp With A Pair Of Audio Note AN-K/Spe Thanks Larry. My problem regarding OTO is that I have a Backert Labs preamp which I absolutely love and will not give up. I install the new cables when they arrive (see earlier post) and save up for a few years. I think I'll be on the lookout for ... |
