| Need to re-discover analog - please help Add phonostage to MP-1 - that's exactly what Larry at Hollywood Sound said and didn't even want to debate the issue: synergy, less cables, no more searching. I was impressed that as far as he was concerned that was so obvious as to exclude any dis... | |
| Need to re-discover analog - please help Thanks for the Rhea suggestion,, Rush. I will call Larry and Mehran on Monday. The Rhea sounds ideal, but, unfortunately, takes up a large amount of real estate (18" deep) which is not available in my set-up. Too bad, as there is a barely used one... | |

| Need to re-discover analog - please help Rush,I like the budget and simplicity. Would the JMW 9 tonearm mate with the ZYX cartridge? If not, which of the cartridges you mention would be closest in character to the XYX? My MP-1 is linestage only. Dont feel like shipping it back so which P... | |

| Review: Portal Panache Integrated Amplifier My sympathies to Slate1, who simply wrote a sincere review of a piece of equipment that he liked. Then a torrent of critiscms and invective because an individual, who happens to be in the audio industry, took issue with the marketing strategies an... | |

| What is a 'fast' amp? The Atma-Sphere MA 2.2 has a slew rate of 600V/microsecond, which, when I last looked, was the fastest slew rate of any amplifier. Is this still true and is this what we're talking about? Its sonics certainly jive with this remarkable figure.But t... | |
| What is the best tube integrated amp? If you can suffer the hassle and pain of biasing the unit, the Jadis Orchestra Reference just blows away anything else in its price range (used about $1500-$1800)for pure musicality, tonal and timbral correctness, midrange mellowness and sweetness... | |
| Jadis Orchestra Reference I agree entirely that Jadis should be ashamed of themselves,making biasing such a huge a huge chore; however, aside from this, the sound alone is so good as to compensate, I think, for this. However, I have not had to bias mine, since the previous... | |
| Jadis Orchestra Reference If you cant figure out the biasing, I'll copy the manual Joe Trelli made for me and send it to you. It sounds great with El 34s. | |
| Jadis Orchestra Reference I hope you like your JOR as much as I do. What tubes are you using? |
