| SS versus Tubes Well said Garfish. System matching and type of music will dictate more than anything on your preference. Another reason I dropped the tubes was reliability | |
| VTL 450 SIG. vs. Wolcott P220M Wolcott was a bad match with the Dunlavy V's. Bright sounding and lacking upper Bass | |
| Warm sounding ss power amps Try the Aloia's. Lars fredell ranks them in equality to his Lamm gear. They drive the Dunlavy V's better than tubes I've used | |
| Audio Tekne Phono cables Mike, I replaced synergistic, transparent,nordost and most of the JPS full sets. Its probably a better phono cable than the transparent or TG Audio( Bob Crump) cable. Rest of system is Dunlavy,Aloia, Audiomeca, and VPI w/Benz ruby. | |
| The "Broken Blue Point Special Club" I had 3 BPS in a row installed by the dealer which failed for no reason. The dealer dropped the line because of it. | |
| Finally gonna buy new speakers, ideas? Dunlavy V's is great choice if you have a large room. Very compatible to many amps and room friendly | |
| Info on the Cary slp90L? I owned the Cary and it is midfi at most. Their amps are Cary's strength | |
| avalon ascent to avalon eidolon I heard the Eidolons for a short time and was not ultra impressed. This could have been an electonics issue among other things. When I asked the dealer why they seemed a bit bass shy he told me that it takes a long time for them to break in. He th... | |
| What causes listener fatique? cure? Hey Clint, Is there a cure for country music. Great adress | |
| Tired of SS amp. I found the Dunlavy's a hard match with tubes. I replaced Cary-200's and Wolcott mono's with Aloia and got the best control. | |
| Your vote - BEST CD PLAYER in the world?? Sutts, I agree on the Audiomeca. The Mephisto II is just a transport though. | |
| Best Solid State Amp For 10k Or Less Shouldn't be a problem using the Aloia (inductive). This is mere speculation though. How inefficient are the Dynaudio's. They can easily control all the Dunlavy speakers. You can bi-amp for less than 8k. | |
| California Brownouts and equipment Get out of Cal. | |
| How much does your system retail for? Retail 75,000 Black Market price around 20,000. What a steal | |
| Audiomecca Mephisto I have the Mephisto II and the Enkianthus. It does not get any better period. I was especially amazed at the transports ability to separate the instruments and pinpoint imaging. Some think this combo is the best digital playback. I agree |
