Tube amp $2-3K used SF is out of business for years, but Parts Connexion which is run by Chris Johnson, former SF founder, will continue to service all SF products. If you don't feel like shipping it all the way there, you can order schematic/parts and have your loca... | |
Tube amp $2-3K used That's interesting observation Chris made.I had VT-100 Mk 1 & 3 in the past, a friend let me borrowed his Mk 2 for a week. I have also had Sonic Frontiers Power 2, 3, 2SE and currently own the 2SE in addition to BAT VK-75SE among others. Side ... | |
Tube amp $2-3K used Sonic Frontiers Power 2, better than ARC VT-100 of any versions in most area for less money used. | |
Upcoming plasma 1080p tv's vs Sony SXRD LoCS? Larryi, what you are referring to is called SSE (silk screen effect). When I bought my Sony GW IV, I thought I would be bothered by SDE, but turned out SSE bothered me more. But just like rainbow effect, you learn to ignore it and focus on objects... | |
Upcoming plasma 1080p tv's vs Sony SXRD LoCS? I have to agree with Rysa4. As an owner of plasma (NEC) and RP LCD (Sony GW IV) and also very familiar with SXRD PQ, plasma is head and shoulder above any RP TV in skin tone or color balance. Not to mention if you watch movie in completely dark ro... | |
Tenor 75 w/ Sonus Faber Amati Homage? I run my Amati with BAT VK-75SE, but my room is not that big (14x18) and I don't crave for absolute lowest octave. I know at least one guy who has success running Amati with Tenor OTL, he had his Amati in a huge studio and Tenor had no problem fil... | |
SCOUTMASTER TO ARIES 3 VPI staff does favor JMW-9 over all other arms they make because it's more rigidly coupled to base and arm tube is more rigid as well. And that's the reason they spend more time and effort on improving the JMW-9 instead of their longer arms. Not m... | |
Clearaudio Champion 2 TT with Graham/SME tonearm? Hi,I no longer own Clearaudio Champ 2, so can't help you there. There is only one armboard that will fit SME/Graham. The trick is mount the arm and cable on the board first before putting it on the 6 pillar tower. It's painful to do it that way, b... | |
How to remove B&W 800 N midrange?? Unscrew the long rod from the back, hold the driver from the front while doing so as it will eventually "fall out".Use a very large screw driver or something as wide as the slot, or it will leave mark on the "screw".It's not rocket science, I have... | |
Amati homage with NO334 I am the guy with Amati and BAT VK-75SE. I have tried many amps, BAT VK-150 (non SE), ARC VT-100 Mk III, Sonic Frontiers Power 2, Rowland 501 (friend's), Accuphase P-450, Pass X-350, PS Audio HCA-2, and others that I can't remember. You know my ch... | |
Clearaudio Champion 2 TT with Graham/SME tonearm? It's a tight fit, but will fit if you install the cable before mounting the arm.I was able to use Harmonic Cu Phono w/ 90 degree DIN on SME IV.Vi which has the same base as SME V. | |
sealed 3-ways One of my favorite speaker of all time, Dynaudio Confidence 5. | |
New home - shoulda woulda coulda's elevator to move those 500 lb speakers up and down the floor when you get tired of them. | |
Mounting a Shelter 501 on a JMW/9 My VPI SSM w/ JMW9 Sig arrived recently and I just mounted my Shelter 901. Same observation as you, I had to push the cartridge all the way forward to hit the alignment mark. In fact, it's still a hair short but soundwise it was fine.FYI, problem ... | |
BAT VK 75SE vs 150SE's or maybe a VK600SE? Owner of BAT 75SE. Even though never heard the solid state BAT gears, but I am willing to bet my whole system I can tell them apart, 10 out of 10 times, between 150SE and 600SE.Jafox's statement is dead on, what's the point of making 150SE if 600S... |
