| Kharma, Wilson Sophia, JM Labs I'm confussed???? Nrchy:I have to agree ,I actually own the Kharma 1.0 also and recommended the 2.0 or 2.1 due to the actual closeness of sound to the 1.0. and the room size mentioned. I demo-ed 2.0 3.0 and 1.0 and they all sounded exceptional but haveing a large r... | |
| Kharma, Wilson Sophia, JM Labs I'm confussed???? I think a used Kharma 2.0 or 2.1 would work nicely. Easy load,good bass,exceptional mids and highs and will work great in a medium size room. | |

| Review: Ridge Street Audio Poiema Speaker cable I have to agree with you assesment of the Poiemas. I am currently burning in my Poeima i/cs and sp. cables and though have only 10 hours or so on them I too have noticed my system sounds more lively,better pace and depth.

| replacing tweeter help I am not an expert,but I would think that the down side would not knowing which tweeter to put in,possibly making matters worse. Try to find someone who has done exactly the same upgrade or do you homework big time. | |
| New ACME outlet sounds worse It sounds to me like you do not have enough time on them yet. I just purchased new cables and in the literature it explains alsmost exactly what your experiancing.Try giving it more time before you give up on them... | |

| Sweetest sounding 12AU7? I actually think that the Amperex Bugle Boy ( Holland or France ) are some of the best NOS tubes available. Many like Mullards and Telefunkens,but for me the Amperex Bugle boys are the best of the best.... | |
| interconnect ? Being that you can't afford more than one piece.I would buy the best common size ( 1 meter etc. ) interconnect I could afford ( that has exceptional reviews ) and place it on whichever peice it sounds best . Also your considerations should be with... | |
