Melos vs ARC Hey thanks for the advice. After giving it some thought I do remember listening to a LS-22. It was a bit cool sounding as far as tube go. | |
CJ PV series + SS amp Unsound,I suppose if my friend had a McCormack I would consider it. But as my original post stated, I want to choose between the 2 amps becuase I can buy them dirt cheap. so the 3BSt impedance won't effect my decision to much.thanks for the help. | |
CJ PV series + SS amp Unsound,Maybe the sound has changed now, I was listening to a DNA-2, a real thumper! At the time I also auditioned Classe, CJ, and Bryston. I found the DNA-2 to a bit forward for me.I haven't listened to the latest version. So maybe things have ch... | |
CJ PV series + SS amp Thanks for the input, I read the CJ web page and I think a PV11 or a 12A would be the way to go. Avoiding the PV12, since CJ did some upgrading when they came out with the PV12a.I once heard a McCormack with a VAC CLA-1 MKII ( defintely a warm pre... | |
Jadis Defy 7 vs Antique Sound Lab Hurricane The Defy 7 MK 1, and 2 were plagued with problems. After that they were improved as far as liability was concerned. I would think since you are in Europe, you will find more Jadis dealers ( for service ) than you will find ASL Dealers.This is a no... | |
mids showdown. I wasn't looking for philosophical answers :) I was looking to have some friendly input from people who enjoy sharing their stereo equipment likes and dislikes.But if no one want's to come out play, that's fine too.Is sweetness a subjective qualit... | |
300B amp options Great ideas! Thanks for all the help! I will defintiely check out these amps on the net. If I go the kit route I'm sure I'll be back with more questions. | |
amperex 6922 options Albertporter ( and the rest ) funny you should mention the Mullards, and the Telefunkens. I have both of them. So maybe I should just leave well enough alone. You know what they say, " ignorance is bliss ". I was only intersted in the Amperex becu... | |
best tube for BAT VK5i Ok, now for the next question. I am finding differnt kinds of Amperex. 7308, 6922, 6DJ8, all claim to be Amperex. I see halo getters, and "A" frame getters. Orange labels, and white labels. Which Amperex? How do I know for sure I am getting Ampere... | |
3-way under 1000 new. Twl,I have heeded your advice and have put Vandersteen on my short list. I just wish they wern't so dogon big :) | |
3-way under 1000 new. Twl,I hear what your saying, but unfortunately I just don't have the equipmwnt to make my own cabinets. But if it is true that most of the money is going to manufactures and dealers. Then why can't I go buy a cheap pair of speakers and then upgrad... | |
3-way under 1000 new. Audiokinesis, What I'm trying to say is that I will be running 2 different amplifiers to my biwire speakers. I most likely will run a ss amp to the woofers, and tube to the top. I have also been told that even using the same amp I can run 2 sepera... | |
3-way under 1000 new. The problem with biwiring a 2-way is that the midrange comes out of the woofer. On a 3-way the midrange and tweeter are on one set of post, while the woofer is on the other set. | |
3-way under 1000 new. I want 3-way speakers becuase I want to biwire using 2 sets of cables. Possibly even using 2 differnt types of cables. | |
3-way under 1000 new. Thanks for the advice, I have heard good things about the 2ce's but their so dang big. I have thought about the 1c's ( even though their 2-way ) anyone ever listened to these? Nut much into building my own cabinets, but if I was I'm sure I could i... |
