| How to improve XM Radio audio quality? Without being propelled up to XM's satalite with a bagfull of audiophile jewlery and a digital geek or two, the most cost effective way to de-grundge, re-liquify and bore a hole in the soundstage is a "tube buffer" added at the outputs of XM's dig... | |
| Review: Martin Logan CLS IIZ Speaker "Creation1" underlines the fact that Electrostatic speakers (the Marin Logan CLS's inparticular) "are only what you feed them". I am a believer and follower of pure tube amplification. I am a romantic about it. I have heard only a few SS amps that... | |
| Spica TC-50 Owners What amp do you like w/ TC-50? Hello,I am using the Halo Audio SPM-25 SE (KT88x2.. 12AX7LPS) with my TC-60's. The results are excellent. At the moment, I am using a Rega Planet (original) through a Musical Fidelity X-10D straight to the Halos... Great soundstage and bloom.. Kil... | |
| Halo Audio SET amps,,,,,,,,any one heard of em' ?? I have owned a pair of Halo Audio SPM 25's for about a year. They have proven to be VERY rugged, reliable and one of the best sounding amps that I have ever owned (I would take a stab at perhaps 100 or more). I generally don't keep them around for... | |
| Balance - sound is too far to the right TWL is correct in suspecting the anti-stating and also the cartridge alignment. You may want to check your connections, as well. Oxidation, broken wire strands and bad solder joints are usually a main culprit (in signal loss). If all else fails, t... | |
| HELP: I need a solid state amp with a tube sound Another pathway to "tube" euphoria would be to use a Musical Fidelity (Thank's PhaseCorrect !) X-10D between the Pre-amp and amp. They really do turn the sterile, chalky, Surface of the Sun, bleached sound (of Solid State) into a pleasing and list... | |
| HELP: Tweaking my system is killing my back... Invest in a "inversion" machine. This machine enables you to hang "upside down" by your ankles. Your ankles are attached by wide padded straps to a tall, tube cage that inverts you and allows you to hang like a bat (no insult to Balanced Audio Tec... | |
| HELP: I need a solid state amp with a tube sound With regards to the liquid musical timber, the pace, attack and vibrancy that a tube amplifier can naturally offer (if it is a good tube design and driving a load within it's peak operational performance values), I would suggest that you purchase ... | |
| Review: Martin Logan CLS IIZ Speaker I agree with META. Correct amplification is a must with the CLS. Mine are the original CLS. There is plenty of debate waiting for which design is better. There is no debate, however, that the CLS demands an amplifier that is correct in timbre, pac... | |
| Has anyone listened to Legacy speakers? Test only | |
| Has anyone listened to Legacy speakers? I have some news on an excellent amp for use with the Legacy speakers. I have been searching for an amp that is fast, with good control of bass lines and liquid smooth in the mids and highs. The trouble is that it has to be cheap. Fixed incomes ar... | |
| Has anyone listened to Legacy speakers? Thank's everyone for your support on this fun journey into LegacyLand. (jmcgrogan2) My listening area is my living room. It is 15 x 20 x 8.5. The speakers are set at an angle along the "long" wall. They are spaced 7 ft apart and the angled distanc... | |
| Has anyone listened to Legacy speakers? The Legacy Convergence crossover. It is very well done. In terms of quality, structural integrity and/or workmanship the Legacy crossover is as good (or better) than you will ever see in many Hi-End speaker systems. With regard to the construction... | |
| Has anyone listened to Legacy speakers? (Sbox) ... I will take a look at the crossover today and report back to you on it. I am indeed a curious puppy now. Just a note about the power. Although very efficiant, the Legacies can absorb tons of raw earth shaking power. They seem to do it w... | |
| Has anyone listened to Legacy speakers? Kimber Kable, heavy guage angulated tube ports, compartmentized internal bracing and silver solder is what I found inside the Legacy Convergence. After reading the horrors, in the postings about the "bad wiring", (on selected Legacy's) I wanted to... |
