| EL34 SED, Black Sable or Genelex Gold Lion? Musicophile; My eperience ( my system ) with the SED Cryo'd El34 is that they do not sound the same ( or as good ) as the stock SED El34..Point being they sound warmer ( quite a bit ) and not quite as much air..If you need more warmth,thats a diff... | |
| EL34 SED, Black Sable or Genelex Gold Lion? If the Black Sable is just the Cryo'd version it ain't worth the cost over the stock SED..The cryo'd version is a touch warmer and less transparent ( in my Thor Mono's ) and at twice the cost...I'll stick with the Stock SED El34. | |
| Vintage speakers 80s-90s..... For that kind of money Klipsch KG4....... Great overachiever.I just picked up a pair that look like they just came off the showroom floor ( Black ) ..I paid $125 and they sound great ( for the cost ).. I swear you could power them with a flashligh... | |
| Would an SACD Player improve my sound? You may want to consider upgrading your Thor linestage ( T1000 ? ) with the new Mundorf Caps..I did my T1000 and its a huge improvement over the last current model...My guess is you will get more performence this way than going to a SACD and buyin... | |
| KEF 107 - opinions please To me the problem is getting ( great speakers ) a speaker that is long in the tooth,,,More than likely it will need the Drivers re done...If you don't mind investing some $$$ and can find a nice pair ,,then go for it...For me I would suggest the V... | |
| Whats the consensus on Zu's loudspeaker cables? Start out ( used ) with Paul Speltz Anti cables..Great low cost bargain and will probably work as well as anything out there for Modestly priced system..If for some reason you don't like them ( most do ) you can sell them for pretty much what you ... | |
| SED Winged C el34. Help Excellent ,reliable tube..Check again at tube depot..I bought mine there...Looks like they still have them .........$50 pr......I have bought at least 4 quads from them ..Never a problem...Great sounding New production El34........ | |
| slightly neurotic question from a tube newbie Just don't mess with the tube anymore and you will not have anymore problems..If you get more nuerotic and try to bend it again it may then fail..Leave it be and enjoy...... | |
| Any tweaks recommded for under cd player? Star Sound Audiopoints......... | |
| Cables for Musical Fidelity A3.5 & JBL L100t3 Paul Speltz Anti cables should do very nicely..Depending on type of fasteners on speakers and or Music Fidelity you can go bare wire or spades..I chose bare wire and feel it works very well.. | |
| Speaker most similar to Proac REsponse 2 Just a guess but possibly one of the Harbeth Monitors......... | |
| Moving up from Marantz 2325, to new amp and preamp In my opinion the Bryston ( though a great product ) might not have quite the same sound as your elder Marantz..Quite a difference in sound..I might consider a Top quality new or used Intergrated Tube amp ( many available ) ..I think at least you ... | |
| Preamp to match Parasound JC1 monos Jump on the Thor T2000 on this site..You will never have to look back..Awesome preamp.......... | |
| Improve my system I would say make sure you have quality AC lines/and recepticles ( plugs ) coming in..Most will start from the electrical panel in, and provide at least 3 Dedicated ac lines..This would be where I would start ( if you haven't already ) and what eve... | |
| SS Amp Recommendations? Try to find an old Crown D300 ...If you can find one in good condition it will definatly play rock very well.. |
