| Help My Krell amp is too big. Interesting that you're building a new home, have an amp that you love and couldn't find a way to accommodate it somehow into the new architecture. Is this cabinet custom built or off the shelf and that's the reason it won't fit? | |
| Attn Vinyl lovers - what CD Player do you use? CJ DV2B, Meridian 508.24 and a Jolida 100. These are about as "analog" as you can get. | |
| Anyone ever load a Shelter 501 II at 300 ohms? Running this cartridge through an EAR 834P that I think is around that impedance and it sounds great. | |
| Rogue Cronus too bright Have you also tried the 4 Ohm taps? | |

| Current recordings on vinyl? The band Low records on analog and their recordings are strictly AAA all the way though. | |
| Jolida JD-9A or Pro-ject Tube Box SE phono preamp? I had the sotck Jolida 9A and for the money you pay for the mods plus this phono stage, the EAR 834P is a much better choice. I now have two of them, one each in a SS and tube system. | |
| Why Don't More People Love Audio? People do: mark my words, the iPod will eventually be that which grows the high end business again. | |
| Going to see Roger Waters in concert Two entities that love and want to perform the same music. DSOTM is essentially a cover tune for these two entities. Sad that they can't join forces and perform it as an original instead of a cover. The politics and personalities of rock bands; so... | |
| Rogue Titan vs Tempest The "Titan" refers to the most recent series of affordable components from Rogue that includes the Metis preamp, Atlas power amp and Cronus integrated amp. I have a Cronus and though I have not had the chance to compare it to the Tempest, it is on... | |
| Trying to extract more from my Vandersteen Try switching your source to another CDP, or at least audition another. I've got a feeling this is the limiting part of your system. |
