| Preamp Deal of the Century Ait,How long did it take to get your Chenin from the time you ordered it?Ray,I am sure the 50 watter will work well for you. On Mick's website, he says that he drove very difficult speakers with the Melbac using EL34 tubes (which probably reduces ... | |
| Preamp Deal of the Century I wish I did have the money for a Grange. You guys must have read my post wrong. I have the Cortese with sheoak and black top. I am hoping it won't take near as long for you guys to get your amps with Mick's new partnership. I have heard that some... | |
| Preamp Deal of the Century WOW guys, looks like I need to get on the stick and order a pair of Melbacs. My problem is I don't know if I could part with my Berning ZH270. I really love that amp.PS: Glad I ordered my Cortese in the black top, save me $1000 when ordering the a... | |

| My Supratek Chenin is Shipping Monday My Cortese was shipped DHL. It was held up in customs because they said it did not have SS# on it. It was there, they just could not see it. If it was a snake, it would have bit them! | |
| My Supratek Chenin is Shipping Monday Ait,I sent my ss# to Mick in various e-mails (a few digits at a time). The shipper should contact you if it is held up in customs to obtain any necessary info to get it to you. It may take a few extra days though. Congrats, you are going to live t... | |
| Morph The Cat : Revisited No, I do not own Nightfly. Is the music as good as Morph the Cat? | |
| Preamp Deal of the Century Just received an e-mail from Mick on the Malbec amps. It seems there are going to be two versions of the amp. One is a low power 30wpc version that Mick says will have a sweet sound to it. He says this amp will work fine for most people. This amp ... | |
| Review: VPI Industries VPI Aries 2 Extended Turntable Hello Thaluza,Thanks for your comments. Yeh, I have said I am getting out of the audio buying business, but alas, like so many, I am addicted to this crazy (but fun)hobby. If you get a Cortese, I don't think you will be sorry. The phono stage is t... | |
| Canadian Musicians Jean Bardy-A Few Notes is a great cd. This is Jazz music and Bardy plays upright acoustic bass. The cd is made in Canada on Lost Charts Records. | |
| Preamp Deal of the Century Sorlowski,I have found on my Cortese that the preamp has very little dynamics in the low gain position. The high gain position is much better for me. I also keep the gain knob on the back set to one step below full gain. | |
| Preamp Deal of the Century Sorlowski,The low gain position should be when the toggle switches are in the back position. High gain should be in the forward facing position. | |
| Preamp Deal of the Century Ethifi,Have you contacted Mick yet? | |
| Has Anyone Ever Combined Tonearm Wire? Hello Doug,My situation is a little different with the JMW arm already having a junction box. I should have pointed out that my suggestion was for owners of JMW arms. I would love to own a UNIverse cartridge someday. I have a friend that recently ... | |
| Has Anyone Ever Combined Tonearm Wire? Hello Thomasheising,A very good friend of mine (Larry)gasman on Audiogon has been e-mailing you about advice on his new Graham Phantom arm. It is nice to talk with you. Yes, I like the Discovery wire, but coming across this combo of Discovery and ... |
