| Conrad Johnson Premier 16LS 2 help needed. No click at 91, 93, 95 and 97 just got it back from C-J due to a bad cap so I am not worried also I don't play it that loud. | |
| Shunyata or Transparent Power cables I would agree with Stanwal. While I did have them at the same time, the Shunyata's were a generation or two older than the most recent ones and the Transparent were present cycle, so that is not exactly a fair comparison but it may be of aid I hope. | |
| Tube Life When Thor Audio was around I talked with Paul Marks, its founder. His view was leave it on 24/7 and just change the tubes each year. So that would be about 9000 hours of use. Make a guess at how much you have used them and that's a very ballpark e... | |

| Help Me Build a Vinyl System You don't give a budget. So a good phono cable which you will need is a Seabreeze or Hovland MusicGroove2. Both can sometimes be found used. An entry level pro-ject, rega or similar turntable is a good start. Later when you know more that this is ... | |
| CJ custs – please help me get rid of my headache I had an MV-52 for years with a PV-11 that was very nice. Eventually upgraded to the Premier 16LSII and the Premier 11a. That was a very nice and easy to identify upgrade even for friends who are not audiophiles. So I would try the Premier 11a. th... | |
| What happens to an amp below 2 ohms? Another way to look at it is to search for the few, underline few, amps that can comfortably and reliably,heavily underline reliably, drive the Apogee Scintilla which goes down to 1 ohm. Looking at those amps will tell you what is necessary for an... | |
