| Speaker repair...is it easy? I removed the solder and blown voice coil/diaphragm from my Mezzo Utopia's tweeter and resoldered in place a new voice coil/diaphragm. It wasn't easy but I did it and it sounds perfect. | |
| So how can a great system solve less than great recordings Set up a mono turntable using a true mono cartridge such as a Miyajima Zero. You may be quite surprised that mono can surpass stereo LP's. | |
| Herron VTPH-2A discontinued I’ve heard a lot about the Herron but I wound up buying a customized Rogue Audio Ares Magnum for 2 tables. 1 mono 1 stereo and 1 mono switch. Hopefully it is on par with the VTPH2A. | |
| Garth Powell on Why Audioquest does not make AC Regenerators I corresponded with Garth many times regarding the Niagara 5000 and 7000. I wound up buying P.I. Audio's UberBuss w/ Standard and Digi Buss outlets. | |
| No-one talks about Rowlands anymore I have 2 Rowland Model 12 monoblocks powering JM Lab Mezzo Utopia's and would be interested in knowing who makes a better amp for the same money...I expect crickets..... | |
| Looking for Linear Power Supply for my Mytek Brooklyn DAC. Suggestions? I bought an SBooster for my Node 2i after upgrading the PSU interface.It came with a thin, stock 18g power cable.....Is there any sense to upgrading a power cable to a linear power supply? I wonder since a PSU is its own transformer and just deliv... | |
| Your tube preamp and ss amp thread I have been considering getting a tubed Rogue RP-7 to pair with my Jeff Rowland S.S. Model 12 monoblocks but I was not certain that the RP-7 would be $4500 better than my Classe SSP-800's analog pass through. | |
| Better/best fullrange nearfield speakers? Klipschorn AK6 | |
| Dumb question HT bypass @fiesta75 "Ok good luck. It is my opinion that you won't achieve good 2 channel sound that way." fiesta75- Were you answering to me? I'm not certain...If so, can you describe why not?It seemed to me that if I connected my phono stage and BluRay t... | |
| Dumb question HT bypass @soix " Ah, forgot you don’t have pre outs on your AVR. So, are you routing your stereo preamp line outs into your AVR?"Sort of. A pair of XLR's from the Classe to the Rogue RP-7 for home theater. That's the only cables from my AVR. My balanced in... | |
| Dumb question HT bypass Thanks. Since I have a Rogue Audio Ares Magnum tube phono stage, now I’m veering towards a Rogue Audio RP-7 tube preamp which gets rave reviews at a fair price. Likely a better match for my Model 12’s...And maybe a SMSL SU-9 DAC.Which DAC are you ... | |
| Dumb question HT bypass @fuzztone I am dealing with this question as I speak. I have a Classe SSP-800 AV processor of which the 2 channel sounds good. But not the best it can be so I've been corresponding with the President of Classe, Dave Nauber about Classe's new Delta... | |
| New Classe Delta amps and stereo pre amp I have the Classe SSP-800 home theater processor but am seriously looking into the Classe Delta Pre for 2 channel. They are connected with a pair of balanced interconnects and then I get the best of both worlds. @millercarbon See what kind of infu... | |
| Pure analog system with high power I just bought a Rogue Ares Magnum phono drive so I say, go Rogue or go home! |
