| Have you changed your mind about a brand? Was it you, or them? I had ridiculously high expectations for the Levinson 333 amplifier and Wilson Watt3-Puppy2 after years of lusting and listening at dealers... flat lifeless disappointment. I suffered through 9 months of system changes before selling both.On the ... | |

| Need preamp recommendation I'll 2nd the Don Sachs Linestage. I purchased one on a whim just to check it out and ended up selling my AR-Ref-5se and my PS Audio BHK Reference. God bless Don Sachs. Wonderful man to do business with and a spectacular product! | |
| What has been your costliest mistake in this hobby? Adding damping material tweak to my 15" woofers... when removing one of the woofers from the enclosure I dropped it resulting in the magnet moving and locking the voice coil... Slick move trying to get that final 0.001% improvement that killed a w... | |
| Klipschorns vs JBL 4367’s What an interesting proposition. I tend to agree about sonics with br3098. Having had both... if you have the room for the Khorn then I recommend upgrading to the AK6 if not then the AL5 LaScala is excellent. These two speakers are substantial ... | |

| Reviews on SVS SB/PB 3000, Paradigm's seismic 110 subwoofer I auditioned this vary group of subs to augment my horn speakers below 50Hz. I ended up purchasing a PB-3000 with intension to purchase a 2nd if I liked the performance. I am happy with just the single, no need for the 2nd in my room for 2 channel. | |
| Cube Audio Nenuphar Single Driver Speaker (10 inch) TQWT Enclosure Having an outstanding tube line pre driving a 10k load is possible. I fact I had Don Sachs configure one output to drive a 10K load and one to drive the normal 100k load. Sounds fantastic! Just takes a big ass high quality cap. | |
| Preamplifier, in need of input It's not standard but Don can provide balanced inputs and outputs | |
| Preamplifier, in need of input Don Sachs will custom his new line pre with balanced outputs. It is my front end with full range horn speakers. He will tune the outputs to your amps input impedance which gives outstanding coupling and bass plus a wide sound stage. After livin... | |
| Best tube preamplifier for under $15k Don Sachs new custom line pre. It bested my Pass X-22, ARC-6se, and PSA-BHK... in my system. Your mileage may vary. | |
