| Supratek Owners Thread Great thread! I am pondering Supratek Cortese LCR preamp. Currently have EAR Yoshino 868PL which is also a full function preamp and is currently paired with Pass Labs XA30.8 amp. Just wondering if anyone compared EAR preamps with Supratek? The E... | |
| New Coincident Frankenstein 300B Stereo Version @brownsfan @charles1dad Great to see happy owners of the Coincident Line Stage (not to derail this thread). I was actually considering it strongly last year. I totally get the minimalist design but I needed a remote with my preamp. That was the... | |
| New Coincident Frankenstein 300B Stereo Version @brownsfan @charles1dad And everyone else. Thanks for taking the time to respond and offer your valuable thoughts. I was worried about 92.5db/8ohm efficiency of the SVIIIs. I do listen around 70-80 db volume levels but once in a while like to c... | |

| New Coincident Frankenstein 300B Stereo Version I actually live in the same city as Israel. I wanted to audition but he told me it's not possible. | |
| Pass Labs XA30.8 @alfau7 I did end up getting the Pass XA30.8. I am running it with a tube preamp and it is very very musical. I don’t think I will let go of the 30.8 anytime soon. I prefer the XA30.8 over Moon 330A - more 3D/airy presentation, refined bass and o... | |
| Cube Audio Nenuphar Single Driver Speaker (10 inch) TQWT Enclosure @charles1dad "Low power SET amplifiers are about as simple and straightforward as can be. Very few tubes (Or parts count in general) in these amplifiers and the DHT tubes have pretty good longevity. Also many of them are auto bias designed or simp... | |
| Cube Audio Nenuphar Single Driver Speaker (10 inch) TQWT Enclosure @ riaa_award_collectors_on_facebook The dealer is a low powered tube/high sensitivity speaker proponent. It was due to my request he paired the Nenuphars with the SS amps mentioned above. He is not a Pass Labs dealer so didn't have the SIT amps a... | |
| Cube Audio Nenuphar Single Driver Speaker (10 inch) TQWT Enclosure Following are my impressions of my audition of Cube Nenuphars: Please note only digital source was used to keep everything simple and quick switching of tracks. My dealer had all the Cube models on the floor but I only focused on the Nenuphars. Ge... | |
| Cube Audio Nenuphar Single Driver Speaker (10 inch) TQWT Enclosure @david_ten I auditioned the Cubes. I will post my thoughts soon. | |
| Cube Audio Nenuphar Single Driver Speaker (10 inch) TQWT Enclosure @david_ten Yes and big thanks. They were helpful. I am going to auditon them soon (first time didn't really do critical listening as I wanted to see something else). My Coincident Super Victory IIIs will really need a strong speaker to fall out of... | |

Kudos to everyone on this thread! My current speakers are Coincident S... | |
| Pass Labs XA30.8 @ddafoe @scothurwitz Thank you very much for your input and thoughts. I think it is clear now that I must try the XA30.8 with my system and hopefully purchase one.Cheers! | |
| Modwright PS 9.0 or PS Audio Steller Phono Preamp? @bluorion An update. I did purchase the ModWright PH9.0. In every sense, it is superior to the inbuilt phono stage in my Moon 390. My power amp is Moon 330A as well. More air and openness without sounding too tubey! I am really enjoying my Modwrig... |
