| NRBQ live at The Doug Fir Lounge in Portland this Friday (tomorrow)! I think I popped in there for a drink during a business travel couple years ago? Too bad the "timing" wasn't for this. Enjoy it! | |
| Prima Luna evo300 owners It would be a good idea for the OP to study the PL website. It has plenty of information about the amps. There is more detailed info on tube use. Hopefully, the OP s recognizes he is being given subjective opinion i.e.- "I guess the last weaknes... | |
| Close, but no cigar ... WHATEVER you get, spend time to optimize room/speaker. After that, stay off audio forums to enjoy music. | |
| Solid state or Tubes preamp phono stage. ""What I can say if you want equal to Trumpet you need to look in the 20-50K$ price range That's some endorsement. No need to look for a used Herron, Manley Steelhead or an ARC Ref10 for that matter. I do believe in all the positive user commen... | |

| EgglestonWorks Andra in nearfield? Have you already looked at Stereophiles measurements? They don't appear to be a speaker that can be moved around easily-210 lbs! No mention of a low volume, nearfield presentation, but I imagine they sound great cranked. https://www.stereophile... | |

| Beyonce releases first album in six years RENAISSANCE Beyonce is a singer. She is liked by millions. Is she in the league of a pre 80's Jazz diva? When Beyonce comes to mind, I think of a overproduced, distracting background dancers, flashing lights spectacle. Perhaps her actual singing talent is t... | |
| Troubleshooting Fosage Signature phono amp. blisshifi- The input is appreciated, and your reasoning is sound, but your comment " internal step up transformers or not. The fact that it comes back in means the transformers are ok." I believe is incorrect. There ARE no "internal" step up tra... | |
| Empire EDR9 cart into Lehmann Audio Decade phono preamp, sounds awful The manual is available here. Looks straight forward once you know where everything is. https://www.lehmannaudio.com/downloads.html | |
| Not a question, but a comment. Good to hear. As long as he behaves in the forums and doesn't shamelessly plug his business as that D&T guy manages to do in threads-pathetic and tolerated by the forum police. | |
| Beyonce releases first album in six years RENAISSANCE The irony-there actually are fans of this womans.....uh music? Millennial crowd diva/genius. Heard through millions of Iphones. | |
| New Rega P10 setup "I went with an P10 with Aphelion 2." You can now get off the merry -go -round until you're ready to dump some serious cash. Now direct audio neurosis towards getting period, original mint pressings of what you listen to. Enjoy. | |
| Sonus Faber Amati Trads or Serafinos + Gravis Vi? Dealer who doesn't recommend the OP's speaker brand choice and by coincidence ISN"T a SF dealer...whooda thunk? Tacky SF's sound great with any music...geez |
