| Thor TA-1000 - inerverting or non-inverting absolute phase? Mine never had any hint of brightness which is why I never had an inclination to upgrade. Yes, the Thor is a true gem. I would never part with mine | |
| Thor TA-1000 - inerverting or non-inverting absolute phase? Who did the Upgrade? I have a Mk 2. | |
| Recommend an amp for two sets of speakers Sounds real - I've heard very good things about Vitus but that's way beyond my reach of $4K or less. | |
| Recommend an amp for two sets of speakers Forgot to mention...the max recommended power on the 95db speaker is 60W. Sounds-Real...what?? No amp recommendation for $50K this time? | |
| Adding a sub - what will I loose? Johnny53, you brought up a good point about room acoustics. I have some room treatment on the walls, corner traps and bass traps. All DIY stuff but it works. The bass traps made a huge improvement when I had full range speakers. | |
| Adding a sub - what will I loose? Has anyone experimented with using standard RCA cables with Y-adapter vs. using a Y-cable? I only see the real cheap generic Y-cables available as most cable companies don't make the latter. Seems like the using a cheap $5 Y-adaptor on any cable w... | |
| Adding a sub - what will I loose? Wow! Lots of great info here...except for SoundsReal and his $10K sub. LOLDoak - you bring up a good point. I'll have to check with the speaker manufacturer.My plan is to use two small 8" subs. Found a good deal on Sunfire HRS-8 that's within my b... | |
| What next after Audience AU24 and Siltech G3? Thanks Budburma.The problem with going up the Siltech G line is they cost alot of "G's"..$$.. :) | |
| What next after Audience AU24 and Siltech G3? Philojet,No offense taken. Yes, the Au24 may not be a good match for all tube system...too much of a good thing if you will. | |
| What next after Audience AU24 and Siltech G3? Philojet,The Au24 may sound "thin and lifeless" in your system but I find it to be very full and liquid sounding and very good tonally in my system. | |
| What next after Audience AU24 and Siltech G3? That was my first thought but I'm not sure if the "e" is worth the price difference rather then trying a different cable. | |
| Has anyone used a pair BAT VK-55 as mono blocs Jfrech,Very nice system!I've been waiting to post my system until I'm making changes...seems like that will never happen. | |
| Has anyone used a pair BAT VK-55 as mono blocs Joman,I'm planning to drive SF Cremonas. If your driving Soundlabs, then it shouldn't be a problem at all to drive the Cremonas. These speakers are not power hungry but open up with more power.Currently using a Pass Labs 250.5. I like the sound al... | |
| Musical Fidelity and Sonus Grand Piano too bright. After some trials and tribulations, I changed pretty much all of the components (except for the speakers and speaker wires). Here's an updated list. Of course this may change in the next few months too and is still a work in progress. I hate this ... | |
| Musical Fidelity and Sonus Grand Piano too bright. I thought about doing some sort of isolation. This might be the most cost effective altnerative. Also want to add that I'm using the MF x10v3 Tube Buffer between the DAC and transport (old CD player), so my system just might need a little tweeking. |
