How many shipments can audio equipment survive? In all the ausdio components I have bought and sold, most of the boxes were very rugged and would survive multiple trips. The packaging on my ************* speakers (returned them) had the flimsiest box I had ever seen. The cardboard was so thin... | |
Odyssey Stratos vs Parasound A23? I own a Odyssey Stereo Stratos Extreme amp in my main rig and had a Rogue Cronus Magnum in my secondary rig. In my main rig, the system is worth upwards of 40K and although I have replaced most of the other parts of the system, I feel the amp is ... | |
Just Ordered New Speakers @giantsalamiThanks! You must come listen once I get them dialed in. I moved up my retirement date to June 30th, the end of the school year. I will have the whole Summer to get the Triton Reference perfectly set up. | |
Integrated Amps with Phono for $3000 or less (or separate phono and Integrated) Parasound Halo Integrated 160wpc, built in dac, mm and mc phono stage, 4 aux inputs also has balanced inputs and outputs. The best part, real tone controls. | |
Just Ordered New Speakers I just heard it is going to be more like July for the first production run :-( | |
FM radio on my laptop Try I heart radio. | |
Are there any $1500 tube preamps that that can compare with Tubes4hifi's SP14? Check out Rogue Audio RP-1 tube preamp. | |
Just Ordered New Speakers I will be giving my first second and last impressions on them. Looks like it is going to be late June before the dealers receive them :( | |
What signal tubes to use when rollin on a Primaluna Pre Power setup? The Tung Sol KT-150 power tubes will solve your problem. Try a pair of Mullard 12AX7 NOS tubes for the signal, or RCA Cleartops. | |
Specific Pre-Amp advice A new Rogue Audio RP-5 all tube preamp sells new for 3,500.00. I am sure you can get a used one for far less. This is a full function preamp with an excellent mm/mc phono stage with many adjustable options. It is fully remote control and I like... | |
Just Ordered New Speakers I don't care that much for the name Golden Ear as it reminds me of the Golden Ear Awards in The Absolute Sound. However, I love the sound of the Triton 1 and 2 and can only hope I will love the Triton References even more. | |
Tube rolling in the Candela I do not have the Candela, but in my tube equipment I have found the Mullard NOS cv4003 is the best sounding 12au7 tube for its rich midrange and fatigue free treble. The RCA cleartops come in second. Thy will take a lifeless sounding piece o... | |
Anthem Statement P5 amp and Golden Ear Triton One speakers No, I haven't heard them as I was not at CES. I do know that everyone who heard them, drooled all over them and it has the GE house sound. The Triton 1 and 2 only sounded thin and bright because they were hooked up to home theater equipment at t... | |
A Question For All You VPI Prime Owners I don't want to go through the extra expense of another maple platform. I paid 400.00 for the one I have now. Was having the cover custom made expensive? |
