| Elrog 300b vs we300b Well, I have only single example based on personal experience. My AA Carissa Sig had 6922 and 12bh7 drivers vs 300B drivers in Coincident. A bit of time went by and system used at that time had changed somewhat in between AA and Coincident in syst... | |
| Zephyr MIMC vs Hana ML The AT does seem to be a rare bird in that I don't recall a single negative or even lukewarm review over a couple months searching. And this even in comparison to much more expensive cartridges. | |
| Elrog 300b vs we300b @david_ten I've heard this claim a number of times, not my experience, various driver tubes in two 845SET, one 2a3 and 300B, I've always heard difference between output tubes, easy to hear. My argument for stating all boutique 300B tubes are nice ... | |
| Elrog 300b vs we300b Hopefully the Elrogs hold up, I do recall seeing a single new production Elrog being sold couple months ago, suspected might be selling single as other one going bad? Anyway, keep us informed, Elrog will rise on my list of future 300B if they ... | |
| Zephyr MIMC vs Hana ML @normb I've been considering exact same two cartridges for upgrade, after much research seems the Audio Technica ART-9xa and Lyra Delos are two more of the favorites around this price level. These have become my top two contenders at this point. | |
| Opinions on Pure Audio Project Quintet 15 Horn 1 Please Hmm, I just had good experience listening to Spatial X3, that in comparison to my much modded Klipschorns. Not saying Spatials in this setup superior to what I have, but certainly didn't hear non fleshed out mids. Prima Luna Dialogue Four I modded... | |
| Distinctly Different Upgrades. Surprisingly Similar Musical Outcomes? @mahler123 That's what it sounds like to me as well. I used to hear this effect at times, many years ago on prior systems. When trying to figure out what I wanted out of a system, I'd go from analytical to romantic, really all over the place, I tr... | |
| How much of High End Audio is Horn Speakers? @coachpoconnor You're on right track with Coincident Statement and future Frankenstein. I use Statement MkII and custom built 300B monoblocks or Coincident 845SET with the Klipschorns. All are wonderful match for horns, different flavors with amps... | |
| SGC vs Roon Nucleus Nucleus plus uses I7 processor. | |
| Elrog 300b vs we300b Well, here we go again, one gets good results with particular tube another not. I couldn't stand KR 845 in Art Audio Carissa Signature I was running at time, sterile, clinical. It also suffered failure, blew resistors in amp. Various Chinese 845 ... | |
| How much of High End Audio is Horn Speakers? And, as some of you may know, a lot of horns conducive to modding, many sources for attaining your sound preferences. Volti mid horns part of my mods, so, yes Volti another horn to pay attention to. I did try damping my original mid horns, not to ... | |
| First tubes in 30 years Cool, I also have custom build 300B monoblocks, dual diy project with guy with access to great enclosures and his hand wound transformers. Love the diy aspect of this hobby, I'll be starting diy music server in January. I can see your having fun! | |
| Majority Of Your Listening Is Online Streaming Service, Do You Buy CD's Or Vinyl Any More? No more cds, still pick up lp's. I've been gifted hundreds upon hundreds of lp's over the years, just received another hundred or so last week. Periodically purchase as well. I still like large format of vinyl, and I get sense of inherent value,... | |
| How much of High End Audio is Horn Speakers? There is a lot of anti-horn sentiment out there. I had no interest in horns prior to 1980's era Klipschorns falling into my lap. Prior to that I had used a series of open baffle and box speakers, very much liked sound staging of open baffles, box ... | |
| Elrog 300b vs we300b @charles1dad Can't follow your link. I didn't know tooling for tubes that widely available, but then that is eastern Europe, probably lots of old Soviet tooling around. |
