| Tube dampeners on ARC gear ... FREE TWEAK Very very interesting stuff indeedI wonder whether Herbies would make any significant improvement on the lone 6922 in my arc ls2?Looks like about $29, not a lot of money tbhWas considering fuses but $119 for a sr black.....ouch. | |
| Decided to change my cd player, suggestions please? Have now lived with my "new" system for a while and just my thoughts.Replaced both the krell power amp and cd player with Esoteric sa-50 and BAT VK600SE.After selling off the Krells I am probably out $4k total with some new cables as well.Did i ge... | |
| To Pre or not to Pre? Here is my take Very Interesting products George, however it would have to be the balanced as I am using xlr and the bat only takes xlr input unless you buy the xlr to rca adaptersmore food for thought.... | |
| To Pre or not to Pre? Here is my take The more and more I hear other peoples observations with ARC, the more I feel it is a pre I should never get rid of! Maybe upgrade it or even a newer ARC but for my ears this ARC tube sound just sounds well right for want of a better word. | |
| To Pre or not to Pre? Here is my take To make it even more subjective, the preference may also depend on the type of music played through the system. Exactly!I listen to rock music only and just found the direct path too cold and sterile for my tasteI know I am listening to some ty... | |
| To Pre or not to Pre? Here is my take "There is no preamp which sounds as good as no preamp "And that was my initial thoughts and point behind this postBut my ears with my system in my room and my music just tell me different, and at the end of the day what I LIKE the sound of is wh... | |
| To Pre or not to Pre? Here is my take And I agree with just about everybody here and appreicate them taking the time and trouble to comment as it helps my mindset somewhat.I am fairly content with knowing that in my room, with my equipment listening to my music with my ears that my ar... | |
| To Pre or not to Pre? Here is my take Good to hear on the arc as i have had this one now for over 3 years and have yet to feel the desperate need to change...lol. But you know how that goes!I was watching a bat vk31se on ebay as i thought it may make a good mate for the bat vk600 powe... | |
| To Pre or not to Pre? Here is my take " Way too many variables in the audio chain to make a general conclusion. Results are completely system/cable dependent. Worth the experimentation nonetheless. "I agree entirely, move my equipment to another room and the result could be entirely ... | |
| To Pre or not to Pre? Here is my take "What is the relevance of this post ? Is this for anyone who happens to have exactly the same components and room to not use a esoteric as a preamp and use the arc ? OK Got it . Thanks "Just to say that even though this shows to me that my pre i... | |
| To Pre or not to Pre? Here is my take #1/ For sure I know my room is terrible but it is what it is, due to space restrictions that is something I cannot change right now but will be changed in under 2 years when I move.#2/ Interesting as I found just the opposite, running through the ... | |
| Replacing Emotiva XPA-2 & XPA-5 power amps in HT system with class D All good that I am hearing so far on the d-sonic, thanks to everybody for that!Has anybody experienced Nuforce class d amps at all? | |
| Replacing Emotiva XPA-2 & XPA-5 power amps in HT system with class D Gregthat is a most generous offer but unfortunately way south in florida!and yes part of the plan is also to condense the present two box amps down to one so a d-sonic 7 channel is the way, about $3500 in the config i was looking at | |
| Replacing Emotiva XPA-2 & XPA-5 power amps in HT system with class D Sounds so far that d-sonic may be the best affordable way to gomay just go with the 3x800w and 4x400w as i have very easy to drive focal 807v fronts and martin logan center.the only other one i had researched a little so far was the primare c30.7 ... | |
| Replacing Emotiva XPA-2 & XPA-5 power amps in HT system with class D What configuration was that?I was looking at their present line and the top of the range is freaking outrageous, with 1500w for two front, 800w for center and 400w for the 4 surrounds. Not sure as i would truly need that much juice and it costs $3... |
