Top Ten Speaker Cables of all time?...
I've seen Fabio's setup and he uses transparent with the modified Martin-logans. It was in a stereophile about 4 years ago. Hard to tell which are the best because my system changes and probably my ears do too. I've spent a lot of time checking di... 
High current or high wattage amps
sol322 You may e-mail me at drfish941@msn.com for info. The amps cost around 4k with the inductive power. I used one and had great sound then I tried bi-amping was awestruck with the soundstage. I also sold a CAT ultimate preamp and got a Aloia. A... 
Best ss Line Level Preamp under $10K ??
The T is for Carl Thompson who does the circuit board layout on the blowtorch. I just replaced the CAT ultimate with an Aloia preamp. A steal at under 4k 
TOP TEN solid state amps of all time?
A relative new amp on the block but the best I've heard in my system is the Aloia 1301 with Inductive power supply really took control of the Dunlavy V's 
High current or high wattage amps
I won't embarass myself in talking tech but I just solved a major problem involving wattage. I own dunlavy V's and had poor sound with 250 plus Wolcott amps. I tried to remedy this with VTL 750's and the sound was the same. I called Dunlavy and th... 
Tired of same ol' CD'd...
When I'm in a music rut I go to Echoes.org. It is a radio show on NPR that has tons of new music. Since we don't have this program on NPR in the cultural-ridden Tampa Bay I use their website. Just about everything nentioned on these type threads i... 
Who R U?
I'm an audiophile and not a geek. According to this thread, is that possible? 
Best amp for Dunlavy V
I couldn't believe that 30 Watts could drive these either but its obvious that Watts aren't what's the concern. It's the clean current driving the voice coil that really controls this speaker from an inductance power supply. 
Aloia 13.01i Amps Has anyone heard them?
Totally amazed at how these amps controlled the Dunlavy V's. Absolutely stomped the Wolcott tubes in every aspect. Sold the CAT Ultimate preamp also. The Aloia preamp is dead quiet. 
Best solid-state amp made anywhere
You're right Imho on these amps. The Aloia's with the inductive supply have stunning control. These are a great match with the Dunlavy V's. I have heard Dunlavy may be using these amps as his reference. 
Best amp for Dunlavy V
I received the Aloia's aweek ago and was absolutely floored on how they controlled this speaker. One amp was enough to get unbelievable sound. Bi-amping added a touch bigger soundstage. I sold the Wolcotts immediately and realised what an awful ma... 
WOOLCOT AMPS - Anybody heard these?
I am not so sure how these Amps match up to all speakers. With Dunlavy V's they seem to lack power to drive the bass.I replaced them with Aloia 1301 inductive amps to get the awesome control. I've talked to another person who had the same problems... 
Biwire questions - Best cable for
Thanks Megasam read the Vandersteen article. It amazes me how far apart the great speaker designers can be. Dunlavy is a major designer of cables and still is opposite of the Vandersteen ideas. 
WOOLCOT AMPS - Anybody heard these?
These were the best Amps I had in my system however they have broken down twice in the last year. That was enough for me. I think everyone else has had 0 problems. I am auditioning the Aloia 1301 inductive amps as there replacement. 
Aloia 13.01i Amps Has anyone heard them?
Hi Calloway, My Wolcott Amps failed for the second time so I ordered the Aloia's for bi-amping along with the aloia pre-amp. I talked directly with Lars and he cant believe how good they compared to his 50,000 in Lamm equipment. I am using Dunlavy...
