| What's better? 1 amp of 250wpc OR 2 amps of 135wpc each one? In MY opinion, i can see how you think the system is "thin". From my experience, ALL of your components are on the "lean" side. While MF gear is not "harsh" or "bright", it is definitely NOT warm, full or "powerful" when talking about tonal balanc... | |
| Best interconnects 2m for less than 200/pr used Last months Stereophile referred to the Goertz Micro-Purl Cu's as being quite good. I think that they would have liked them even better if they would have burned them in using a Mobie instead of the Duo-Tech. My opinion of the Duo-Tech is not very... | |
| Speaker vs. Room Size I agree with most of the other suggestions here. Stick with something that is "reasonable" in size i.e. no large multiple arrays with drivers spaced far apart. I would also avoid something that is very strong on low end. As such, the B & W's t... | |
| Nashville Audio or Home Theater Shops Michael Green is now located in "Nashvul". Don't know the address, etc... but you might want to look up their website, snag their number and see how receptive they would be to a "drop by" while you're in the area. Sean> | |
| Good preamp for Bel Canto EVo 200.2? Esb, what preamp are you referring to ??? Sean> | |
| What's better? 1 amp of 250wpc OR 2 amps of 135wpc each one? Since you would be passively bi-amping, your gains would not be nearly as great as if you were actively bi-amping. How effective this would be would depend on the crossover frequency of the speakers being used and how the power was divided. If the... | |
| Good preamp for Bel Canto EVo 200.2? a relatively warm yet still "airy" set of tubes would probably be best with the Bel Canto. Since units vary according to what tubes you use, i'll leave the exact make / model up to you. After all, hunting / finding is half the fun.... : ) Sean> | |
| What Would you Trade your System FOR? Hey, if we are "aimin' high", might as well shoot for the top !!!!I'd like all of the following, but in no specific order:World Peace and an end to hostility a never ending supply of moneya never ending supply of good company & friendsa never ... | |
| Modications to the Dynaco ST 70? I recently inquired about Dyna gear. Someone else was kind enough to post a link to this website, so i'll "pay it forward" : ) Hope this helps.... Sean>http://home.indy.net/~gregdunn/dynaco/index.html | |
| Superior sound from newer CD players? I pretty much agree with Sugarbrie. To add to his comments, i have found that every DVD player that i have auditioned at home has always sounded colder, leaner, brighter, etc... than even a "decent" CD player.The only point that i tend to disagree... | |
| HELP Anyone Using a PS 300 w/ a BAT Preamp? I agree with "Swampy". Something sounds "goofy" with the BAT although tubes do have various stages of current draw as they warm up. You also need to keep in mind that the P300 is really NOT a 300 watt power supply. According to the statements made... | |
| Kora Hermes or EVS Millenium or Audio Note DAC One.1x? I would suggest contacting each manufacturer as directly as possible, explain what you are looking for and go from there. Let them do most of the talking, listen to what they have to say and how they say it. This will tell you if you think their p... | |
| Oval 9 Sp. Cables Making Arcam 10 int. clip? Something is SEVERELY wrong. You can't get those cables out of your system fast enough...Before removing them, turn off your amp and do the obvious things. Make sure that all connections are clean, tight, no shorts, etc... If everything checks out... | |
| Unreadable CDs: unscientific testing Bob, my brother is going to check on EXACTLY what it was that they used. I thought that the exact same thing that you did, but he was almost certain that it was rubbing compound. As to my "testing", the disc that was reading fine after the applica... | |
| Heath AA-2500 Amp - Heard of it? I find that interesting. It just goes to show how different installations & combinations of gear / personal tastes can alter the performance and percecption of an individual component. That is why you'll often see me make such disclaimers in m... |
