| Do I really need a preamp? my experience has been that an excellent (tubed?) preamp basically levels the playing field when considering any cd player up to $3k (or more?) my $500 nad 5-disc *changer* is competitive w/the likes of the $3k audio resolution cd-50/55, & $18... | |

| Melos updates worth it? i believe the sha-gold & the maestro have the same circuit, but m.a.r. offers a circuit mod. personally, i'm waitin' for the new photentiometer wolume pot before i send 'em my preamp - i tink this will be a great mod. if ya don't wanna call 'e... | |
| Melos updates worth it? mi3491, fone # was listed in my 1st post, here it is again: 702.248.6745. ask for brant (if he doesn't answer the fone!). the maestro updated the caps from the sha-gold, so i understand; it also replaced the pho-tentiometer for a more reliable con... | |
| Best Tube Preamp under 2500? musicslug, i'm curious what amp/s you are using - i found the cary slp98 to be quite neutral, not at all coloured w/that "tubey, romantic" signature... i'm using a pair of electrocompaniet amps above 60hz. | |

| Melos updates worth it? audibleguy, i believe melos audio restorations *does* have upgrades for the sha-gold - i tink i even saw them adwertizing one f/s a few months back. i can make no performance comments about the mods, tho - no experience. i *do* know that the sha-g... | |
| Best Tube Preamp under 2500? i tried a rogue 99 magnum-upgraded preamp, & found it very coloured, & w/poor bass response. to be fair, impedence may have been a problem, as this product has gotten great feedback; not *all* of ya are deaf! ;~) i also dint like not havin... | |
| California electrical shortage audio don - thank you, *Thank You*, THANK YOU!!! :>) | |
| Melos updates worth it? streetman, seriously, i *do* recommend the electrocompaniet amps, but, i have heard good tings about the mccormack electronics as well. if ya wanna go that route, i suggest looking at sam tellig's recent s'phile article ('00 dec?), where he compar... | |
| Melos updates worth it? re: the melos, ewe can ask brant, but i'd bet it's the photentiometer wolume/balance control - it's actuated by a tiny little lite-bulb - the brightness controls the wolume. if ya pull the cover, ewe can prolly see it! :>) according to brant, c... | |
| Best 2 Channel Amp under 5k electrocompaniet - and when ya spend more money on 'em, it's yust for more power - all their amps are excellent, imho. even their lowest-powered model - the aw60ftt - puts out >60amps current. i won't switch amps unless/until i can afford some ... | |
