Review: Chapman Q6 Monitor The Chapman Q6 Speaker prototype has been renamed T6 Mk.2 for production. I have had them now for two years. They are extremely musical, open, 3 demensional and accurate speakers. The new flagship Chapman is the T77 which has two midrange drivers.... | |
Playing with the idea of solid state amps Consider the GamuT Mk.3 series D-200 or M-250. These have an outstanding reputation in Europe and USA. I have had my GamuT for 2 yrs and still love it. Please see many outstanding reviews out there. | |

Can HI FI components really make music? Herman, my speakers are Chapman Q6 three way towers. I have reviewed them on Audiogon and the other forum. The address and telephone number of the manufacturer are included. These were prototype speakers two years ago, but since then Stuart Jones ... | |
Can HI FI components really make music? If you really enjoy music, I would recommend more then background music. You could rebuild a simple system after researching which would be emotionally involving to listen to at more exciting volumes without being critical. My system lends itself ... | |
Solid state amp ultimate stop... I have been delighted with my GamuT D-100 Mk.3 which in my system is very natural, nonfatiguing, dynamic,life like musical. I have plenty of power to listen at realistic volume levels. For those who need more power, GamuT makes more powerful ampli... | |
Can HI FI components really make music? My apology on my mis-statement regarding the 3A Sig. possible veiling. I was thinking of an earlier vintage Vandy. I still recommend the Star Sound sistrum platform appropriate for your size speaker. It can make a big difference. Product is guaren... | |
Can HI FI components really make music? I am very pleased with my GamuT CD1R for source, but if you are looking for perfection, the Reimyo 777 CDP probably would take you another step beyond the Wadia 861. From my experience, when you finally get your system fine tuned, nearly live musi... | |
Best tube pre-amp below US $ 10.000,00 ? The deHavilland Mercury has given me 7 months of musical pleasure adding more realism and even less listening fatigue to an already excellent system. It is extremely natural sounding. I had the Pass 2.5 before the Mercury. I would rate the Pass 9/... | |
Can HI FI components really make music? Braro, I wrote earlier about my system. Now that I know you like jazz which I love, some suggestions which may be nothing new to you. The JVC XRCD jazz remasters are usually terrific. Most sound live in my system. Also many labals ie Columbia/Lega... | |
Do I need power conditioning When I added the Audio Magic mini stealth AC purifier my sound became much cleaner and no downside. Audio Magic has continued to upgrade their purifiers. The PowerWing is another fine example of a great AC purifier. Just two to consider with excel... | |
Can HI FI components really make music? After 40 yrs. of this audiophile game, I am enjoying simulation of live music, probably 75% of the time. The secret, I feel is fine tuning after lots of direction and home work. The mini stealth AC purifier, aurios and sistrum stands all made majo... | |

Opinions on deHavilland Mercury 2 Slingshot, One of the characteristics of the Mercury which makes it so nonfatiguing and natural is the lack of edge and any spectacular "electronic sound". It does require some break-in and after break-in sounds best after about an hour warm up. Y... | |
Opinions on deHavilland Mercury 2 I have had the deHavilland Mercury for 7 months and it may be the most satisfying new component in my 40 years of audiophile indulgence. The Mercury 2 can only sound better because Kara would only make a change for the better! In brief the Mercury... |
