| Vandersteen 3ASigs amp? Bigtee- Did you compare a higher power DNA 1 to a pair of 0.5s bi-amped? | |
| Cooling Help in a Closet Equipment Room Thats the truth and could be a real issue. | |
| Trying to Enter the "HiFi" Bizz Great thread, lots of good advice, basically the same as being successful in any other start up business: work hard, deliver a good product, work hard, keep your promises, work hard, be lucky, work hard! Oh did I mention hard work? Can you tell I'... | |
| Cooling Help in a Closet Equipment Room Can you change the door to a louvered door (could actually be a half-louvered door, lower half) and then put in a small exhaust fan mounted high (hot air rises) behind a dryer type vent? You could use one of those wood stove circulating fans or a ... | |
| New Eva Cassidy - "Imagine" JD- you've got it right. Guitar and voice excellent, performance only so-so. Its a little sterile sounding. For me, the emotional impact of her work is primary and I must admit to being a little disappointed. | |
| Quick bi-wire question Sugarbrie- never heard that idea on shotgun biwire; is there an theory on that or is it based on your experience? Just curious, I've got double runs of Syn Res Sig 2 on my Vandy 3asigs and I've got one run for mid/tweet and other for woof, both pl... | |
| New Eva Cassidy - "Imagine" As you can tell, I'm with Paulwp (esp on his choice of favorite tracks). No goosebumps here, even tho its the best audio quality so far. Worth having, but somehow its doesn't seem that Eva made an emotional connection with these songs. | |
| Quick bi-wire question I'm pretty sure that using A and B speaker outputs to biwire a single stereo pair of speakers is not right. Others with more technical knowledge than me can explain, but I would certainly go with either a single biwire set up from one set of outpu... | |
| Experiences, good and bad, with VTL $60 each for cartons? that should tell you right there their attitude towards resales and customer service. | |
| Calling BAT amp/preamp owner OK, guys, I've never heard ANY noise on muting, on/off, input change, etc, from VK3i. However, now I have a rythymic, low volume "ping" when unit is powered on, with no input. Not present when its muted. Sounds fantastic, no way it could be heard ... | |
| Where does your user name come from? Winning aswers will be selected based on originality and coolness. Accuracy is not a judging criteria. And besides, T-bone, you peeked. | |
| New Eva Cassidy - "Imagine" Sorry to take an opposite viewpoint, but I found it more intimate and better recorded but didn't care for the covers as much as some of her other material. Blues Alley and Time After Time were, IMO, much better in terms of material. Guess that's w... | |
| Blew my first tube, what next? you will find lots of tube advice on AA in the tube asylum including some fairly comprehensive reviews of various NOS tubes. I don't have any experience with your pre-amp, but the used CCas I just bought sound glorious, if the AR uses 6922/6DJ8/E8... | |
| Where does your user name come from? In the interest of enhancing the mystery, a prize will be awarded to the best guess posted here (no fair telling, Craig). And if I really like it, I will adopt it as part of my persona, public and private. | |
| System for weekly traveller to use in hotel room I just tried my HD 600s with the MD player, works fine. Won't match the Airhead/CDP HD 600 combo, but each MD is about 1/4 the size of a CD and if you're traveling by air you can use the compression (not sure if its actually data compression or wh... |
