| Selah Sa-1's Damaged During Shipment Had you considered contacting Selah Audio? It is possible that when the connections are restored/reconnected,that the speakers may be up and running. From what I have heard ,customer service is very good. | |
| which is better msb ilink or wadia 170 The "real question" is:Who will provide better support. | |
| How am I frying all my amps? Oscillating? Help Who built the Zobel networks? I have heard that these can cause problems when improperly designed/implemented. If not the Zobels,then look at the pre-a trip back to Cary?? | |
| Glowpower Zyxt Heard these and the less expensive model,in a friends' system.Not bad for a copper solid-core.Probably worth exactly what he paid at auction>>$69/Zyxt and $35/entry model.He sold them and is moving on,but for an inexpensive cable it wasn't a... | |
| New to tubes Most speaker-level inputs on subs provide a couple Kohms to convert high to low-level.This value doesn't affect the impedance that the amplifier sees. You will probably be happier with chinese output tubes,as some of the russian are more forward i... | |
| Phono stage revealing limitations of cartridge? I like to have gear plugged in and running for three days,before evaluating.It allows the connections and power supplies to "come up". A pair of the original Mullards may be your cup-of-tea. | |
| New to tubes I don't think you would have a problem with any of the units that were mentioned.The speakers are 6 ohm/90db and better yet-a two-way (less complex a crossover).As long as you are not trying to fill a huge room,you're in good shape. | |

| Usher BE-10/20, what do you use to drive them? The 100W/ch Jadis might be a good combo (Defy 7?). | |
| Usher BE-10/20, what do you use to drive them? Room size:smaller>>BE-10,larger BE-20.Same drivers,but the 10 has a single.40-50W/ch tube units drive them just fine. | |
| Subwoofer and tweeter for Quads Have used the Hartley/Quad/Decca combo,but preferred the Magnepan bass panel (3B).Wish I could have heard them with a set of Fountec ribbons. | |
| How do I spend $5000? A CD player or DAC for my De Agree with the single-box solution.With 5K to spend,you are in the price-range of the Gamut CD-3,AA Capitole and possibly the DCS P-8 used. | |
| Tube amps vs solid state for large speakers Prima Luna Prologue monos with KT-88s.Auto-bias,making tube rolling much easier. | |
| Primaluna Dialogue Two + Wilson Sophia I Tiger,are you implying that all tubes are "colored"? I have yet to hear a SS amp that has as complete a waveform as tube units do.Most SS accentuates the leading edge and disregards some of the decay.With SS you would be talking about pure "class ... | |
| Primaluna Dialogue Two + Wilson Sophia I There are some inexpensive input/driver tubes substitutions for the Prologue units that significantly increase their musicality and naturalness,without losing the positive qualities they already possess. |
