| best preamp ever - cost is no object My take on the "sound" of different manufacturered tubes, whether NOS or current production is that each brand has a "house" sound. For example, the famous NOS Mullard Square getter, 1959 ECC83, known for it's amazing musicality( especially in the... | |
| How much money for your next interconnect cable??? LOL, Rja! Nice analogy. | |
| How much money for your next interconnect cable??? " FWIW, it's much less expensive if all cables sound the same to you. I do envy your condition." I don't know, John. Is it envy or pity? Maybe a little of both for me. I appreciate being able to hear the differences in cabling because when I fin... | |
| Whose sorry now? Sellers remorse from selling amp. Ejlif, I'm sorry that this happened to you. I have been fortunate myself in that I've had positive experiences these last 5 years as an Audiogon member. I see that Tube_lvr has lost his membership on Audiogon. I'm surprised that he's still allowed... | |
| Whose sorry now? Sellers remorse from selling amp. Ejlif, Why have you waited this long to file a complaint against this person and wouldn't the complaint have been more appropriate in the Dispute forum? | |
| Audio Horizons TP 2.0 Preamplifier Has anyone ever asked Joseph or Victor if the two output caps in the TP 2.0 and 2.1 are a matched pair ? | |
| best preamp ever - cost is no object Fcrowder states: "The point of this short story is that even the best tubed preamp is probably limping along unless its tube compliment is optimized and a lesser unit with better tubes may sound better. This certainly complicates comparisons, at l... | |
| tube pre suggestion Grant, To get the best sound out of the AH preamp, if you have a nice pair of Siemens CCa tubes, put them in locations one and three. The preamp is also sensitive to power cords so experiments will be necessary there as well to fine tune the sound... | |
| A higher level than Mullard in tube quality? If you're happy with those NOS Mullards, then just sit back and enjoy them for a few thousand hours. At some point down the road, try to find a good set of early 60's Siemens CCa tubes and give them a try. If the Siemens don't suit your taste, the... | |
| Audio Horizons TP 2.0 Preamplifier Has anyone been able to communicate with Victor lately through e-mails? I e-mailed him and he's not responding. Also, I tried to e-mail Joseph at the last address he had: Ading@prodigy.net and the e-mail is being kicked back to me. Has Joseph chan... | |
| tube pre suggestion If anyone has a classic vintage tuner from the 70's or earlier, Joseph can work miracles with his mods on these. I have a 1977 Harman/Kardon Citation Eighteen( Joseph mod) that is currently my favorite source. I have it cranked up right now to som... | |
| Audio Horizons TP 2.0 Preamplifier I have read where other tube pres have worked out well for some owners of the Nuforce amps. I don't know how the TP 2.1 pre will match, but a quick e-mail to Victor would be advised. | |
| tube pre suggestion Tvad, Victor's e-mail address at Audio Horizon is: vcomerchero@sbcglobal.net Unless he's traveling, I'm sure that he'll get back with you promptly. He's always been very responsive to my e-mails, unless he's on the road. Regarding the preamp's l... | |
| How much money for your next interconnect cable??? I thought Aural Thrills was working on a cable like this. | |
| Audio Horizons TP 2.0 Preamplifier No need to wait for the show, Bill. Joseph has a 30-day return policy. Might as well get one now to experiment with in your "own" system. IMHO |
