| EL34 Integrated Pubul57, your enthusiasm for the Ars as the only and best int amp for Merlins has to be admired, but you have not heard the Jadis DA 88 Signature with them (I have) - and how do you know the Ear isn't a match? Anyway, the questioner is talking "ba... | |
| Where to buy racks? simple, inexpensive but efficient and sturdy wood racks at wood-tech.com | |
| Question re input Sensitivity and 110 db speakers Thanks all; there are no specific speakers that I had in mind, it was a theoretical question, since I have had so many divergent answers from friends about the versatility of a 60 WPC Class A amp with 125 mV input sensitivity that I wanted a conse... | |
| We have a Winner -- Major "MINI" monitors Very, very good point, Jaybo. I have been guilty of writing mini-reviews after one day, too. There is no doubt that distance lends veracity to the view. | |
| We have a Winner -- Major "MINI" monitors BbChem, what happened to the Ruby's? What are the placement restraints on these SPTech mini's? Do they have to be far from the front walls like the Mark-Daniel monitors? | |
| Tube amps with BALLS in the low end registrer ??? Second Moscode 401R - I have 2, bi-amping and they can be each used in mono-mode (switch on back) - they have huge balls - and you can make the tubes soft and wet:) | |
| Has Anyone Used 6AWG Wire For Speaker Cable? Thanks, Freemand. I found some copper lugs at a hardware store, which involved cutting them into spades, tough crimping, but they work. They sound pretty good, but, like Xiekitchen, I have gone to Cardas (Golden Reference). Like all insane audio r... | |
| Best Small Speaker System You've ever Heard Mark-Daniel Maximus Monitor blows away anything I have ever heard in the way of small monitors in terms of approximating reality, soundstaging, depth, imaging and pure palpable vibrancy. Unfortunately, they gobble power to do this - I drive them w... | |
| Has Anyone Used 6AWG Wire For Speaker Cable? Freemand/eddykale@aol.com, Can you give me the name of the supplier of the 6 AWG bananas/spades please, as I cant find any? Thanks a lot. | |
| Has Anyone Used 6AWG Wire For Speaker Cable? Where do you find connectors (bananas/spades) for Lowe's 6AWG wire? All the usual places (AQ,Ram's, G&W, etc) only accomodate 8 AWG wire. | |
| Tubes with different gain for Moscode 401HR I will try horizontally bi-amping with one amp tubed with NOS 6DJ8s (quad) and the other with NOS 12Au7s. Former for LFs, latter for HFs. | |
| Have you ever deceived your wife-audio purchase This is very simple and has taken me 30 years to figure out:1. Haul the boxes in when she's asleep2. Have an entire floor that is so untidy/revolting/messy (she regards a speaker more than 3 nm from the wall as messy, wire on the floor as untidy a... | |
| Totem response re: recommended tube amp for Sttaf Nice post, Sfar! | |
| Moving away from tubes. Is this a good idea? In case it helps you, let me tell you that my Atmasphere tube amps (MA-2) have 58 tubes, the MP-1 has 5 tubes and in 3 1/2 years I have not had to replace even ONE tube nor had any problems whatsoever! (except when I installed the amps, I literall... | |
| Acoustic Zen Adagio: How far from the wall? My Adagios are 23" from the front wall, 2 feet from the corners and image very well - just as well as my Kharma 3.2s - I am sure they would image even better, as all speakers would, out a little further, but I cant do it in my 12 X 14 X 19 ft room... |
