| Best transformer to mate with 2a3 based tube? Way to go, Clueless. Great recommendations. | |
| Best transformer to mate with 2a3 based tube? I just checked some websites for info, and found that C-Core transformers are ideally used with negative source impedance when using mixed-feedback circuit designs. If you are using a no feedback design, this may not be the best choice for your ap... | |
| The Hives:Real Deal or just a tease??? If you like the '60's psychedelic stuff, you should try a band called "Plastic-land". They were around in the '80s and had a sound like the 13th Floor Elevators. Except without the "Duk-a-duk-a-duk-a-doo". If you know the 13th Flr. Elevators, you ... | |

| High Sensitvity = good transient response ? Marakanetz, perhaps you just prefer the sound of push-pull amps better than SET's. There is nothing inherently wrong with push-pull amps, and they have more power to kick the bass a little harder. My little Berning amp is actually a push-pull, usi... | |
| Speaker Mods I can tell you 4 reasons why I use the Bybee Ultimate Speaker Filters.#1 - They work and sound great.#2 - I don't have any crossover unit and there is nothing between my speaker driver leads and the Bybees except a pair of Cardas posts and 11 inch... | |
| Remote turnon of power conditioner via dc trigger? Does your powercenter have a provision for being turned-on remotely, by a jack somewhere on it? If it does not, then you have to make a simple relay circuit using a 12vdc wall wart, a 5vdc controlled relay rated for 12Vdc on the switched side, ano... | |
| Why are you listening to that? ? Thefalls1117, are you referring to the never-ending eternal epic saga of the Freebird? :-) | |
| Music to test with: I like Rickie Lee Jones 1st album, and Pirates. Willie Nelson's, Stardust album. Carmina Burana with the Czech Philharmonic. Suite for Flute and Jazz Piano, by Claude Bolling/Jean-Pierre Rampal. John Klemmer, Straight From The Heart, on Nautilus D... | |
| High Sensitvity = good transient response ? Marakanetz, I do indeed enjoy your posts and feel you are a very informed and perceptive individual. On the high-efficiency speaker with SET comment you made, though, I believe you are in error. If you sat down in front of my system which consists... | |
| High Sensitvity = good transient response ? Again, we arrive at the inevitable conclusion, every design has its flaws.For Mwilson, I have been using Lowther fullrange drivers recently and they have 98db/1watt efficiency unloaded, 100db/1watt in a cabinet. In my cabinet, they are good down t... | |
| Why is Shahinian not more popular I find them interesting, but I prefer the sound of direct radiator speakers. I never really enjoyed omnidirectional designs. | |
| High Sensitvity = good transient response ? I know everyone hates this kind of response, but, it depends on the speaker. Most would say that electrostatics and some other planar and ribbon speakers have excellent transient response, but they generally have pretty low sensitivity in the mid ... | |
| Preamp Deal of the Century Just an opinion to be added at this point. I understand that it is frustrating to have to wait for your new gear. But, everyone here must understand that part of the allure of the product you have ordered, is that it is individually hand made by t... | |
| Review: Rega Planar 2 Turntable This was a nice, informative review. Much better than most others I've been reading. Good job. |
