| Carver, THE standard of excellence IMO @ozzy,Your 350 mono blocks are really something special. | |
| Need Long Length Speaker Cables You guys are wrong, he won’t lose anything as long as he goes with a 12 gauge cable. Canare 4S11 speaker cable which is 11 gauge will run you less than $2.00 a foot plus termination from Blue Jeans Cable. You are probably looking at around $300.... | |
| Compaing the ESS AMT ! and the JBL L100 speakers I own a pair of the new JBL L100 Classics. They were a little disappointing at first and compared to my brothers L100A’s, don’t go as deep in the bass. The treble on the new L100 are much better, not piercing anymore. I had to add a SVS subwoofer ... | |
| Benchmark / Anthem / Rogue I owned a RP-5 for almost two years. I replaced the JJ tubes with NOS Mullard and was extremely happy. It was low noise, worked perfectly. I did feel the remote was quite cheesy, but for $3500.00, it was perfect for me. The only reason I sold i... | |
| Cary SLI-80 or SLI-100? @river251,you only posted a day ago. Give it a chance. | |
| Tonearm sugestion Agree with MC 100%. | |
| Carver, THE standard of excellence IMO Bob Carver is a great guy, my wife and I had a very long talk with him at RMAF in 2017. We did not discuss audio at all, just talked about everyday things. He is a wealth on knowledge, besides the audio. However, his earlier products were built to... | |
| Why are Ayon tube amps not mentioned very often? @jerrg123,I was replying to "speakermaster" who said they aren't advertised in the major audio magazines, which they certainly are. | |
| Why are Ayon tube amps not mentioned very often? @speakermaster,I consistently see ads for Ayon in TAS and Stereophile. Where are you looking? | |
| Arrangement of components on rack For myself, it’s turntable on top followed by preamp, music server, SACD player, tuner and amp. No hum, no issues. | |
| Any real difference in RCA cables quality for sub? @grapeleap,I am using Blue Jeans Cables Mogami 16 foot pair of interconnects to my SVS sub. Cost was less than $50.00. Bass is phenomenal. Wouldn’t waste more on that as my sub cuts out at 60hz at 18 dB per octave. | |
| Transient vs. Analysis Plus @rickisme,I am running 22 foot speaker cables from my McIntosh MC302 amp to my GE Triton Reference speakers. I use Canare 4S11 speaker cable and the sound is fantastic. The Canare is 11 gauge, more than enough for the 22 foot runs. I have been usi... | |
| Odyssey Khartago ES or PS Audio Stellar S300? @auxinput,My previous Stratos had two 400VA transformers and 180,000uf of Caps and the bass was amazing. Much, much better than my 2 previous Classe Ten and Fifteen amps and my Conrad Johnson MF2550 amp. My 300wpc McIntosh Amp betters them all b... | |
| ..so you think there's no need....... @stringreen,I appreciate the offer but truly not necessary. | |
| Raven Blackhawk LE... am I going to be disappointed? @arafiq ,It is MC’s condescending attitude that is bothersome. That is different than being uncivil. He is very generous with his information but the condescending attitude spoils his good intentions. I believe that is what some are talking abo... |
