| Please Help Me Choose a Speaker Cable I always thought the Harmonic Technology Pro 9+ or Audioquest Clear cables sounded very good. Reasonable in used condition now. | |
| Amplifier heat...help! Whoa, whoa, whoa! Tube amps in confined spaces is a big no-no in any users manual. You're sure to forget to turn the amp off some night....not good. (Sugden amps do sound good but run way too hot as well.)Beyond that, tube amps like to have speake... | |
| Looking for a new pre-amp!! I'd go for the listed, Quicksilver, Full Function Tube Preamp w/ phono. Still one of the most versatile,w/ huge power supply, very good phono section best sounding preamps you can find for around $1000. Try changing out some of the caps for Dynaca... | |
| Which Zu for you Yes, go with a model that has the amazing Radian tweeter. | |
| Mark of a scammer...learn not to burn. Addendum: "Swiss" chap chose not to meet my (Albert recommended) terms..."when fun turns into tragedy".....but, disaster averted! No sale. Good points though if you do continue to use paypal; only send to verified address listed on paypal account... | |
| Mark of a scammer...learn not to burn. Thank you Albert, good advice taken.Further investigation alarmingly reveals:From Paypal website, agreement form:"4.3 Risk of Reversals, Chargebacks and Claims. When you receive a payment, you are liable to PayPal for the full amount of the paymen... | |
| Anti skate. I think something's wrong I believe I can help cut through this anti-skating complexity by just applying our audiophile mantra "just listen". Re-reading the Soundsmith set-up instructions, I was pleased to see confirmation of my suspicion that more anti-skating means more ... | |
| AMR DP-777, what am I missing ? Essrand, in response to your question, the SE version does indeed also have 2 dacs. I will add that there is an optimizing feature (for both SE and Non-SE versions) which chooses the better dac for the sampling rate, the better jitter management &... | |
| AMR DP-777, what am I missing ? I have 3 DP-777's I like them so much. Upgraded one to the SE version and found it worthwhile enough to upgrade the other two! (Better bass and more aire.) A friend with a high-end ($30k) turntable e/ Anna cartridge upgraded to SE and loves it, fi... | |
| Just moved to an apartment need speaker suggestions My suggestion would be to buy DeCapo 3MM monitors with stands , forget about subwoofers. Maggie's, in my experience, need to be driven to a bit higher volume levels to sound good...not good for an apt. Go the higher efficiency route and gravitate ... | |
| Most unusual/mesmerizing female voice. Jazzy - Stacey Kent is interesting in her smart phrasing. | |
| Integrated Amp Vs. Outboard DAC I'll address your Zu question. As a Def IV owner, I'm very enthusiastic about the company's approach with high efficiency, high impedance speakers flexible enough for most any amp (why not?) but especially the SET and OTL's that so many audiogoner... | |
| ENTIRE SYSTEM NEEDED TO SELL Go ahead and list the components and we may be able to suggest what you might expect to receive if you want to go to the minor chore of listing them or putting them up for auction... or let us know (generally/city) where you are and perhaps someon... | |
| Good looking Towers for < $2000? Opera makes some beautiful furniture, fast and compellingly tone-full floor standers $$. | |
| Best mellow sounding 12ax7 for Thor TA-1000 preamp Ok. I stand corrected. That's what these forum are for....to get to the truth of the matter.Cheers,Truman |
