Does anyone own the Audio Aero Prestige Monoblocks I've been auditioning the Audio Aero Capitole, not yours from Audio Federation out of Boulder. Neli, one of the owners, who I have been talking to about it is very knowledgeable and could probably help you. Try her, worst thing is you know no more... | |
Help Alien spores on my vinyl... I haven't a clue but having said that I found one situation when I clustered my clothes to close together in the closet that it caused mildew and mold to form. This in northern california an hour's north of the Golden Gate Bridge. I am not saying ... | |
CD player in the $2,500 to $5,000 range I have read some really good reviews of the audio aero both their prima and capitole model. They are available on audiogon for your price range. At least worth a look. | |
Tube amp warm up In general yes, about 15 minutes to half an hour usually, should give an idea in the owner's manual or just ask the company. | |

What other hobby or hobbies do you have? news and political junkie, I don't care which side wins I just like watching the game. | |
Differences in tube sounds: 6550 / EL34 I have just acquired an Audio Aero Capitole amp for demoing. It uses both EL34's and KT88's. I recently, today, changed out the KT88's for some 6550's. The 6550's do not have the base control of the KT88's but they do allow the sweetness of the EL... | |
PV-11 Phono Stage...How Does It Rate With Others? I had a PV-11 that I bought new in 1990 give or take a year.I found when I upgraded to separates that it was a better phono section than some separate phono pre amps. Listen to your ears, listen and determine what you think. | |
Can a scratched record... There is a machine that is $400.00 that heats up a record and allows any warps to go away. Beyond that I do not know. Good Luck. | |
c-j technical questions Have you asked C-J? They're pretty good at getting back and providing any info they have, try them via their website. conradjohnson.com Good luck. | |
Best phono preamp? Want world class the best So much depends on what you listen to(acoutic or electric) and what you listen for. I tend towards tubes and C-J's Premier 15 just did not quite cut it with an MC cartridge with your grado it probably would be more than fine. Just a thought. BTW I... | |
"best" version for "Toccata and Fugue D minor? I know you asked for CD but there is an LP version that really should be heard. E> Power Biggs has been mentioned, one particular album set he put out has him doing an organ tour of Germany and Holland, playing on organs built by APR SCHNITGER(... | |
What is your comfort level? I would say I have limits until I hear something that sounds so right that I am willing to ignore them completely and figure out how to afford it. This rarely happens but when it does I am content in that department for quite a long time. Hope thi... | |
The Nitty Gritty Record Cleaner?? No your not but the Nitty Gritty is. Having had one and gone up the Loricraft model, the difference is cleaning ability is not to be guessed at.Can not speak about the VPI model but the Loricraft does it for me.Michael | |
Listening devices when will they start to fail? I will be your age later this year, a year or two ago I received a free hearing test offer from a local hearing aid outlet trying to drum(no pun intended) up some business. I found that my hearing was far away and above most not only my age but yo... |
