| Allison Krauss fans, try this one. Check out Chris Thile also on Bela Fleck's "Perpetual Motion" CD of classical pieces. He is one of the guests. Fantastic recording! It is amazing to hear good musicians of different genres harmonizing their styles with impeccable taste. | |
| Power cord recommendation for Transcendent T8 OTL You may want to know that Bruce Rozenblitz, the Transcendent designer, does not think you need an upgrade power cord with his amp. I used to own his stereo OTL and could not tell the difference between the stock cord and an upgraded cord (I do use... | |
| Innersound Isis Also email member Iasi. He has them also and may be selling them. | |
| Recommended Repair Facility Without a doubt, the best is Millersound in Philadelphia.Call Bill Legall on 215-412-7700 and tell him Vinh Vu sent you. He is a magician. Your repaired speakers will sound better than the original, guaranteed!! | |
| Transcendent tn8 vs. atmasphere s 30 I have owned both. The T8 has a faster, lighter sound, while the S-30 has more weight, a fuller sound. I was using them to drive my Merlin VSM-M. Both worked well but I'd give the nod to the S-30 (despite its weird looking shape, it is long and do... | |
| Bill Miller of Miller Sound............... The phone number is right (215-412-7700) but his name is Bill LeGall, not Bill Miller. Millersound (one word) is the name of his business (in honor of his grandfather).Bill is one of the true geniuses in this business, an honest businessman, and a... | |
| Balanced XLR cables suggestions I'd second the Innersound. Fantastic value. | |
| OTL amps with Wilson Watt/Puppy 6s Yes OTLs like high impendance load but thanks to the Zeros, I am driving a pair of Vandersteen 4A full range (5-way, 4 ohms nominal, with double 12 inch sub woofers) with a pair of Atma-Sphere M60 MkII monos. See this link for info about the Zeros... | |
| HELP No sound from tweeter. Call Bill at Millersound (215) 412-7700. He is speaker repairman extraordinaire and used to sell Mordaunt Shorts and probably can tell you what to do. If you would care to send the speakers into him (outside Philadelphia), he will make them sound ... | |
| Rega P3 / Music Hall MMF 5 or 7 Turntable decision I have had my share of TT, in order of chronology, Sota Sapphire, Systemdek IIX, Thorens 160, Rega P3, Thorens 320MkII, Michell Gyrodec SE (Origin Live-modded RB250 arm),and now just got the MMF-7. Clearly among them the Michell tops the list but ... | |
| Supermod for Meitner Bidat I would second Mike's recommendation of the DI/O. I have owned some high end DACs including the highly-regarded EVS Millennium DAC 1B and now use the ART DI/O. It fits well in my setup (Merlin VSM-M, Transcendent Sound OTL, Jeff Rowland Coherence ... | |
| "Fast sounding tube amp" with plenty of power? any? Transcendent Sound SC150 monos. As fast as solid state.I should know. I own them and have used many solid state amps (McCormack, Sim Audio, PSE, Meitner, Adcom, to name a few). I am auctioning my SC150 now on audiogon because I am using a lower po... | |
| Pre amp for Merlin VSM se's and Transcendent Stereo 25 I have the Merlin VSM-M and the Transcendent Sound Stereo OTL. I am using a Jeff Rowland Coherence One MkII. Have also used the Jeff Rowland Consonance. Both works great.I would think the Transcendent Grounded Grid pre would be good too but have n... | |
| Is there anyone who came back from tubes to SS? I went from tube preamps (Counterpoint SA5.1, Audible Illusions M3) to Jeff Rowland Coherence One and Consonance SS preamps. I like Rowland products. They sound tubey but has a lot of details and you don't have to fiddle with tubes. | |
| Recommend Higher Power SET Amp I own a Transcendent Sound T8 stereo OTL, 25 watts/side into 8 ohms, paired with the Merlin VSM-M, and a pair of Zero autoformers, and never felt wanting for more power. Once you tried OTL, you will not go back to regular amps, tube or SS. Transce... |
