| From Vandersteen 2CE to Devore Gibbons 8 or Focal I bit the bullett and picked up the DeVore Gibbon 8 speakers which I bought off a fellow audiophile on Audiogon on Dec 30th. I have since set them up to my liking and have these observations based on 3 days of listening. Most importantly, the brig... | |
| From Vandersteen 2CE to Devore Gibbons 8 or Focal Yesterday, I drove 825 miles round trip to pick up a pair of DeVore Gibbon 8 speakers I bought off someone on Audiogon. I have finished setting them up and all I can say is WOW. So much better than the Vandersteens in every way. The mids and highs... | |
| From Vandersteen 2CE to Devore Gibbons 8 or Focal I picked up the pair of DeVore Fidelity Gibbon 8 speakers today from a gentleman on Audiogon. I drove 825 miles round trip in one day and I am too tired to take the speakers out of the boxes. I will set them up tomorrow and post my initial impress... | |
| From Vandersteen 2CE to Devore Gibbons 8 or Focal There was a great deal for a pair of DeVore Gibbon 8 speakers on Audiogon, so I bought them. I am driving down to the gentlemans house on Wednesday to pick them up. I will keep everyone posted once I get them set up on Thursday. If anyone else has... | |
| From Vandersteen 2CE to Devore Gibbons 8 or Focal I have experimented with speaker placement. My cables are MIT Terminator 2 speaker cables and interconnects. I have replaced most of my source components, in addition to the Raysonic cd player, I have a Marantz SA8001 sacd player, a Magnum-Dynalab... | |
| classe twenty five and classe fifteen I run the 15 amp with a tube preamp, specifically a Modulus 3A preamp. I am very happy with the marriage. | |
| mixing power cords? All of my audio equipment is powered by Shunyata Power cords which in turn are plugged into Shunyata power conditioners. | |
| Vandersteen vs. JBL rock music etc. I own Vandersteen 2ce signatures and play them through an Audible Illusions Mod3a and Classe 15 power amp. With 175 watts of clean power per channel available, they can boogie really well. My taste runs from Pink Floyd (my absolute favorite), to J... | |
| Tubes for Modulus 3A Art Ferris called me this evening regarding a post I made about my secondary preamp the Modulus 3 (origional) I have a problem with one channel in the phono section and we had a great chat. He said their web site will be updated before the end of ... | |
| Tubes for Modulus 3A what is the difference between the 3a and 3b? There is no mention of the 3b on AI website. | |
| Optimum Tracking force for Dynavector 20XL I set the cartridge for 2 grams, got overhang right on the money, vta is perfect, but on even slightly warped record records, cartridge drags on the record!!! What is wrong?? | |
| Tubes for Modulus 3A Funny you mention this as that is exactly what I was planning on. Yesterday, I ordered the JJ6922 tubes from The Tube Store and when they arrive, I will put the EH6922 tubes from my Raysonic into the Modulus 3a and the JJ's will go into the Rayson... | |
| Tubes for Modulus 3A I didn't try the tubes from my other preamp as I had already installed it in my office system. The sound seems to be getting better as the tubes break in, There is definitely more detail than my Modulus 3 had and the bass is tight, but not full. R... | |
| Tubes for Raysonic CD 168 What I am looking for is the lush tube sound but I don't want to spend a lot of $$$ on NOS tubes. I am looking for something mainstream and easy to get that won't break the bank for under 60.00 a pair.I tried some Sovtek 6922 and some 6H23EB tubes... | |
| Sony SACD XA777ES V Apollo, Marantz 8003 HELP I compared the redbook portion of the sa8001 to a Jolida jd100a tube cd player. The Jolida player walks all over the Marantz. I also have a Pioneer Elite pd-65 cd player (the one with the stable platter and Legatto link processor) and although it ... |
