| Passive Preamp works with Dynavector p75? >You will probably be surprised by the increase in clarity and refinement, but very possibly also disappointed with the lean and undynamic sound<If he goes with a transformer or autoformer type passive he won't be disappointed. They don't ha... | |
| Passive Preamp works with Dynavector p75? What is going to be important here is the input sensitivity and voltage gain of the MAC. My friend has the P75 going into a Sowter based TVC into a CJ MV60 SE. He is using a Dynavector cart, the 17D2 I think. This works great. However his speakers... | |
| Zu Druids upgraded Vs Essence >I've recently gone away from floorstanding speakers. I can't deal with trying to haul them around,<Do you move on a regular basis? Or just like picking up speakers and moving them around from time to time, just for the fun of it? Why not ju... | |
| So many preamps, so little time The 05 better be heads and shoulders better than a 98, which sounded slow and lethargic to me.Shakey | |
| Zu Druids upgraded Vs Essence I think Ron is bringing the Soul with him to my place. Should be interesting.Shakey | |
| So many preamps, so little time In my system, the Sonic Euphoria sounded far better than the deHavilland ultraverve. The Cary SLP-98 and many more expensive tube preamps have also been laid to waste by some form of transformer based passive as well. System synergy is key of cour... | |
| Has anyone compared Emotiva amps to high end amps? "Adcom GFA-555MK11 that laughs at a 2ohm load and sounds great."If the Emotiva amps can't manage to sound better than an Adcom, they aren't even worth investigating.........Shakey | |
| Zu Druids upgraded Vs Essence "I think you're the one who should lighten up, relax, and not be so distressed about your choice."Ahh yes. Same as it ever was........It's what I've come to expect from you. No problem though.....Shakey | |
| Zu Druids upgraded Vs Essence I see your point. But after all this IS an audio forum. We all come here to solicit opinions or give them. Don't be so hung on semantics. You are being way too literal, lighten up. I know it's my decision to make and no one will make it for me. Ju... | |
| Zu Druids upgraded Vs Essence Not really asking anyone what I might prefer. Just wondering if anyone has heard the two speakers might have an opinion.Shakey | |
| Zu Druids upgraded Vs Essence Wow, this is very distressing news. Ron Williams will be at my place on the 12th for a house party with the Essence. I will be comparing them to my Piega P-10s. I must say I think the Zus have their work cut out for them against the Piegas, but I ... | |
| So many preamps, so little time Buy one of those Sonic Euphoria PLCs on the Gon right now. Game over.....Shakey | |
| The best speaker you ever heard? Bbro,Couldn't have said it better myelf. Bravo man!Shakey | |
| My passive preamp project – DIY vs Deep pocket Don't let what you built cloud your judgement about transformer or autoformer based passives. They are not even in the same realm as something using an ALPS pot. Try to hear one and you'll most likely agree.Shakey | |
| Help me chose: Verity - PBN Montana - Gemme Audio >I find it interesting that there has not been a single comment on the Reference 3A Grand Veena<Could it possibly be because no comments were solicited for those speakers? And most of the people contributing to the thread obviously weren't v... |
