| Preamp Output Capacitor: Mundorf Supreme vs. Supreme Silver Oil Hey @wig. What caps were you using before the ODAM’s? You still have the Don Sachs? | |
| Preamp Deal of the Century Thanks @markusthenaimnut Any idea what stock caps Mick uses? He told me the Cabernet has upgraded caps and transformers but I never asked him what those were. Between having a separate power supply chassis, adjustable gain from a simple knob, and... | |
| Need a line stage preamp Yeah if you can stretch a little to $800 this looks like a good candidate. I just recently was introduced to Mapletree Audio so I’m considering one myself...http://www.mapletreeaudio.com/#Preamplifiers | |
| Preamp Deal of the Century Man you guys are making it hard for me to decide which preamp I want to get next. I like the idea of having a separate power supply box so Supratek intrigues me. Does Micks preamps come with adjustable gain or is that an optional upgrade? My curre... | |
| Hornshoppe "the Truth" preamp - any opinions? Excellent feedback grannyring, thank you! | |
| Hornshoppe "the Truth" preamp - any opinions? Yes, great review @grannyring There seems to be quite a few preamps these days with a loyal following. Don Sachs, Supratek, Aric Audio, and The Truth to name a few. I recently got to hear the Don Sachs and it is a superb preamp that was better t... | |
| A method to more quickly extract the benefits from a Perfect Path Mat, Alpha Card or Gate @grannyring The two mats you “charged” at the breaker box were mats you’ve had in your system for quite some time already? I have two original mats at my breaker box and two mats on my power conditioners that have been in place for the last yea... | |
| Aric Audio Systems Unlimited Preamp Does anybody have an Unlimited or the Transcend 6sn7 preamp with remote? Looking at Aric’s website I don’t see a remote option until you get to the Special 6sn7 level. Just wondering if it’s even an option for remote volume on the “lower” tier pre... | |
| Preamp Output Capacitor: Mundorf Supreme vs. Supreme Silver Oil I just ordered a pair of Vcap odam caps to try in my preamp. Currently have some Mundorf m-cap supreme silvers. I’m tempted to try the bypass method with Vcap cutf’s after seeing what grannyring wrote. | |
| New Omega E Mat from Perfect Path Technologies I can understand not cutting it during the trial period if you’re thinking of returning the mat but I trimmed mine to fit inside the door to the breaker panel and noticed big gains to the overall sound after a couple of weeks. | |
| New Omega E Mat from Perfect Path Technologies Thanks guys. Frank, after perusing thru various jazz albums on my Roon app last night I came across this one that I think sounds great. Never heard of Kenny Dorham but I like this particular album.https://youtu.be/SqQF2Iw4X_UI should add, the part... | |
| New Omega E Mat from Perfect Path Technologies Just curious if any of you guys are adding the E+ mats to the originals in your system or are you replacing the originals altogether? | |
| MHDT Orchid or Lampizator Amber 3? Wow, very cool grannyring! Hopefully your'e able to demo in your listening room and make a great comparison. | |
| MHDT Orchid or Lampizator Amber 3? @ghasley Do you know if the new engine in the Amber 3 is what is also in the Atlantic TRP upgrade? I own an Atlantic Plus and have wondered if the TRP upgrade is worth it. | |
| Get your First Watt SIT-3 now? Any chance some of you have heard an M2 in your system and compared it to a SIT-3? I bought a clone of the Pass Aleph J and love it but am getting curious about some of these First Watt designs. I have efficient 101db speakers with a dac that puts... |
