| Why Can't Modern Tube Manufacturers Make a Proper Tube? Uh, they can and they do. I've had no issues with many KT150's I've bought for my ARC amps, same with Electroharmonix and others- in fact, I've had no issues with any tubes I've bought. | |
| Nuclues plus bricked When Roon works its great, when it does an update and gets hung up for an hour regardless of you rebooting, resetting network and all the other "tips" Roon suggests its infuriating. It never seems to be totally stable- I've had it for three years ... | |
| Immersive Audio and How to Achieve It Related (somewhat) to this post- does anyone have advice as to how to decode my Vizio output via its HDMI into high quality 2 channel audio I can listen to through my main audio system? I have a PS Audio Directstream Junior DAC with many differant... | |
| Are higher end preamps worth the investment when you are only streaming Tidal & Spotify ? Uh- yeah. The better the pre amp and the rest of the system the better it all sounds generally speaking (not withstanding that Spotify is pretty limited). I stream exclusively and use Quboz via Roon (gave up on Tidal due to being unable to opt of ... | |
| A Story about a Defective Signature Platinum Bummer, I agree that either MoFi should be lobbying on your behalf for an exchange, a repair, an evaluation- something- or- the dealer should be too. Unless your'e an experienced microscopic cartridge rebuilder and totally confident you can correc... | |
| How cam Morrow Audio keep offering 45%-65% discounts for trade-ups? Uh, the same way PS Audio does it- when you're the manufacturer and you control (and keep) all the margin and you set the "MSRP" at whatever number you can then there's ton's of built in margin to play with on trades/discounts etc. | |
| How much hum is normal from a new tube amp I have very recent experience with this. I've had a Pass XP10 pre amp running my Pass 250.8 through a JL Audio CR1 active crossover. I have a purpose built very solid, very tight and quiet listening room. I could hear a very faint hum at 7 am when... | |
| Why Don’t You Post Your System on Your Profile? @kota1 THat's what I get, then i name it, I'm signed it and it then shows. a red bar and "user name can't be blank". Same thing another member is getting regardless of browser. | |
| Why Don’t You Post Your System on Your Profile? @toddsyr same results for me, logged in with safari and tried it. got the same red bar even though I'm logged in and named my system. Not worth the continued efforts and posts about it. You'd think that after all these years Agon would have a func... | |
| Why Don’t You Post Your System on Your Profile? Thanks, when I click it takes me to the right place yet when I hit create system it says user can't be blank- even though it shows me as signed in? | |
| Why Don’t You Post Your System on Your Profile? Forgive my ignorance- but- how can I post my system details in my profile? I've tried to figure out how to do it and it eludes me. Happy to do it if someone can tell me how ? thanks | |

| Audio Research amp repair in New Jersey/New York @bhvf - thanks just sent you a pm as you had meters replaced which is a similar repair potential to mine, thanks | |
| Audio Research amp repair in New Jersey/New York @jeffseight Thanks but not sure how asking for referrals for ARC servicers or my original post demonstrates being bent out of shape nor is wasting people's time. In terms of "one LED", well, it kind of is a big deal given it was a $5k used amp p... |
