| Pass XA 25 versus Parasound A21+ - anyone compare? If you haven't done so reach out to Taylor at GoldPrint Audio in North Carolina. He carries Joseph Audio and I believe Parasound and beyond being a get dealer takes in JA trades frequently as pass past customers move up the JA line. I have no re... | |
| GaN based SU-R1000 Technics Integrated Class-D, review by TAS George you have been critical of many designers, engineers, builders and brands. What amps, preamps, DACs have you designed built or what patients do you hold? Just wondering before I invest in my next piece of audio equipment. | |
| Cary V-12 using KT-77 tubes? I have not owned the Cary but many other tube amps. I really enjoyed Gold Lion KT-66’s. Really a great tube based on my experience. | |
| Class D amps seem poised to take over. Then what? As mentioned earlier all amps have their pro's and cons. I've had my share of tube and ss amps over the past 35 years. Currently using Bel Canto Ref600M's with Rogue RP7 Pre. I'm not missing my PrimaLuna HP integrated at all. The kids maybe a ... | |
| Any experience with PS Audio Power Plants I would not hesitate calling PS Audio. They know most equipment needs and are more than willing to work with you to determine needs even when talking about used equipment. Great company. | |
| I knew I shouldn’t have thrown my Electrical Engineering text book in the campus pond! Reading your post I felt like I was reading about myself. I had the same challenge while getting my Industrial Engineering degree back in '79. I live in NC and know Taylor at Goldprint pretty well. He is a great person as is Jeff Joseph. I own... | |
| Network Switches I would read the FAQ's and or setup on Small Green Computer or Lumin Web site (or any of the well respected music server / streamer companies) I think you will arrive at the right conclusion. | |
| Tube Preamp - What to buy? You might want to consider a new Rogue RP1 or maybe you can find a used RP5. Also might be able to find a used Modwright. In my opinion both companies are US based, offer great value and great customer support. They are also stand alone compani... | |

| Your tube preamp and ss amp thread I moved from Primaluna hp integrated to Rogue RP7 and Bel Canto Ref600M monos class D. Been a tube guy for years but wanted more headroom less heat and less weight. Not missing the tubes so far but only been a few months. Maybe not quite as inv... | |
| Solid state amplifiers and sound stage, especially front to back "depth" I went from PrimaLuna integrated to Bel Canto Ref600M's (class "D") and believe sound stage improved. Still breaking in but happy so far. For reference I am using a tube preamp. | |
| What do you have on order RIGHT NOW. I'm waiting for a Rogue RP-7 to come in so I can pick up new Bel Canto's Ref600m's and the RP-7. All is good enjoying the NCAA. | |
| Audio Companies with Integrity?? I have had good experiences with most companies and individuals I've dealt with over the past 40 years. However there are a few that standout:Dan Wright - Modwright InstrumentsTaylor - Goldprint AudioJoe Skubinski - JPS LabsBrian Von Bork - Carda... | |
| Other Rectifier tubes Alternative for 5AR4 I'm not sure what other rectifier tubes are a safe replacement for 5ARA but when I played around with different vintages of 5ARA I found the metal base tubes (mid 1950's) made the largest positive change to my SQ than any other charge I had previo... | |
| Rogue DragoN or Bel Canto Ref600 M George I was wondering what you think about the build quality design quality of the Rogue RP-7? |
