| My favorite classical recordings Chopin "Etudes" played by Frederic Pollini Brahms "Symphonies" Otto Klemperer | |
| Help me find a pre-amp Try a BAT VK-33SE tube pre or a VTL TL5.5 tube pre. They're a step above the rest in that price range. The BAT has a mono switch that sounds better with some material like King Crimson Red album for example. maybe Rogue Audio RP7 | |
| PASS Labs Power awesome jaytor, Thanks for the input. Appreciate it | |
| What to do with dead equipment olyaudio, Try and trade in for newer model especially if you enjoy the BAT sound. I sold a old VK-3ix on Ebay for 70% new when I bought it so the used market is healthy and alive | |

| Preamp headphone amplifier Congrats! those are probably going to sound pretty sweet. Sennheiser makes great headphones and those are rated at 103dB sensitivity. Looks like the No.526 has a low / high setting for the headphone amp output so may see how that sounds to your ... | |
| standby mode Good to know that yogiboy. Thank you | |
| standby mode I don't believe so stereo5, Thanks for the tip! The amp does generate a lot of heat This is most likely a repair job if I can't find a issue with the wall outlet or XLR input cables | |
| Thiel Owners Mine has that as well just slightly noticeable. Being I purchased the pair brand new in 2005 it's got to be the many years of temperature fluctuating and normal playback wear and tear. Maybe take a Hex Key and tighten all the front screws in the c... | |
| Which Would You Choose? have you tried a really well built tube preamplifier? | |
