| Why do my ears ring with my new amplifier? Noom, it is my experience that if you have to turn up the volume to hear one thing at the expense of something else, in your case to hear instruments in the background the problem isn't necessarily too much detail as a general lack of overall reso... | |
| SOS: Andy Bowman - Vintage Tube Services I'll only say this, if you want to GET what you pay for, sometimes, often less. Andy is the best vendor I've come across and I've dealt with virtually all of them at one time or another, several NEVER again. He has great testing equipment and he K... | |
| Why do my ears ring with my new amplifier? "I don't think that the high frequencies are the problem."You may not think HF's are the problem but I think you might be mistaken. A funny thing happened to me a while back when I listened to a DIY Class D amp. Initially, the first 5 minutes it s... | |
| Should I repair my amp? I just wonder what the basis of quoting you 2.5K to repair an amp they haven't even evaluated to see what the problem is. I agree with Bojack, THAT is outrageous. Has Levinson even looked at the amp? | |
| Greatest Children musicians of all times As far as most world class classical concert pianists are concerned, most of them were probably prodogies and most started playing 5 years old or younger, Argerich, Perahia, Serkin, Rubinstein, Hofman, Kissin, Lang Lang are examples. A few started... | |
| Building the Audio Note Kit 1 SET amp... Thank you Rebbi for sharing with us. You've done an excellent job, not just building the amp but communicating the experience. Keep us abreast of your impressions. | |
| is there an audiophile war going on "The problem is, they evangelize"Don't audiophiles do the same? What's worse is they do it among themselves, at least some do and it can be a REAL turnoff, particularly to those on the outside looking in. Often times with audiophiles I get the sen... | |
| Greatest Children musicians of all times Stevie Wonder maybe one. | |
| Onkyo m510 grand integra It goes to prove how subjective this hobby is. Are you KIDDING me, 4.5k for a 25-30 year old 510? I know this is an old post but to those that might be tempted by a "legendary" component from days bygone, just be aware of what you're willing to pa... | |
| Tony Bennett & Lady Gaga?...Gag Me? "I have a hunch that his reason for the recordings he does now is to help others"That is a terrific insight Schubert. I mean I would never have thought of that but now that you mention it, it makes perfect sense. Take Stephanie for instance, he mo... | |
| Tony Bennett & Lady Gaga?...Gag Me? Amen Schubert, love conquers all. | |
| Tony Bennett & Lady Gaga?...Gag Me? Yeah she is a bit weird and different but one thing for sure, she IS talented and has always had a certain appeal, at least to me. I love Tony Bennett probably because he loves and appreciates his audience as much as he loves to sing and sing he s... | |
| My Triton Ones are being delivered to me tomorrow Sometimes the temptation to post a comment unrelated to the thread is too difficult to pass up. I realized this when I posted my first response on this thread. It REALLY is unfair to rain on the parade of Stereo5 in his enthusiasm of his new speak... | |
| My Triton Ones are being delivered to me tomorrow I'm happy for you Stereo5, I really am. Enjoy your new speakers! | |
| My Triton Ones are being delivered to me tomorrow It's nice to know that a US based company is employing Chinese workers to manufacturer it's products. To some price will override considerations of the where it is manufactured but not to all. The question from a QC point is whether the speakers a... |
