| Audio Horizon Cables? As good as the AH Preamp? Audio Horizons offers a trial on their cords and cables with money-back return if you try them and not like them. Try one in your system and let your own ears be the judge. Their cord might sound great in my system and not so hot in your own. | |
| Audio Horizons TP 2.0 Preamplifier Thanks Rx8man. I was getting a little nervous there. I have a feeling that unless technology dramatically advances in key areas, Joseph won't be building preamps that go through continous upgrades. | |
| Audio Horizons TP 2.0 Preamplifier Huh? What Mk II? What changes did Joseph make without telling the rest of us? | |
| Audio Horizons TP 2.0 Preamplifier I'm not sure if any TP-2.0 owner or potential owner is interested, but Joseph has just completed a prototype of a phono preamplifier. He and Victor are in the process of evaluating. That's all I know at this point. Contact Victor or Joseph for mor... | |
| Audio Horizons TP 2.0 Preamplifier Joe, what I heard, especially when putting in the Siemens CCa tubes in location 1 & 3 was a purer tonality of instruments. Pianos took on a more natural timber, with improved dynamics. Soundstage opened up and instrument placement seemed more ... | |
| Audio Horizons TP 2.0 Preamplifier Joe, if your NOS Siemens tubes are indeed new, you'll need to allow another 24 hrs. or so for the new tubes to settle in. Please let us know what your impressions are. | |
| Audio Horizons TP 2.0 Preamplifier I'll let you all in on the tweak I'm going to do. It's not really a secret. I am going to try the V-Cap OIMP, oil-impregnated cap in place of the upgrade Hovlands that Joseph puts in as output caps in his upgrades. Out of curiosity, I asked Joseph... | |
| Audio Horizons TP 2.0 Preamplifier I am currently using a McCormack UDP-1 universal player and mostly listening to my Joseph Chow modified Citation Eighteen tuner. I'm presently experimenting with power cords on my monoblocks. I will be doing an interesting tweak on the preamp soon... | |
| Audio Horizons TP 2.0 Preamplifier LA45, Are you waiting for the preamp to arrive or the break-in to arrive? The preamp as received from Joseph takes about 48 hours to smooth out. It will gradually improve over the next few days. I recommend that before you start looking into tweak... | |
| Hope this helps someone with RFI problems Rich, Thanks for the thoughtful, and I'm sure helpful, post for a lot of people. I wonder if there is an easier way of eliminating this RFI without getting an expensive power conditioner? | |

| Review: Machina dynamica Brilliant Pebbles Tweak Hey Goingbroke! Your comment makes it obvious that you've never tried the Pebbles. Gosh, I wonder how I knew that? I must be a mind reader. | |
| Audio Horizons TP 2.0 Preamplifier Hey Bill! Congrats on finding the tubes that sound best for you. Enjoy the preamp. | |
| Audio Horizons TP 2.0 Preamplifier Grannyring, if your Amperex are NOS, then they might need at least 24-48 hours to break-in. I'm anxious to hear your impressions as well. | |
| Audio Horizons TP 2.0 Preamplifier I would be curious to hear Victor's or Joseph's view on popping the top as well. Obviously, removing the top would be to eliminate vibrations, so why wasn't this issue looked at by Joseph in his initial design? Wouldn't taping some anti-vibration(... |
