| Help selecting a new preamp @gryphongryph Yes, I absolutely would, both in terms of build and sound quality. These are two outstanding designers. | |
| Help selecting a new preamp @markusthenaimnut -- I wish I could give you a more detailed comparison, but I have only had the Sachs preamp for a couple of weeks and am still waiting on Don's KT88 amp--which I also ordered-- to arrive. In the meantime, I've been using a prett... | |
| Help selecting a new preamp Don Sachs Model 2 preamp or one of the new generation of Suprateks would be excellent and leave you some money for other upgrades. A good preamp will make a significant difference in your system, at least in my experience. I have owned two Suprate... | |
| Review: Linear Tube Audio Z10 Integrated Amplifier @grannyring Bill, you might check with member ghasley, who wrote a wonderful review of the LTA Z10 integrated. If I recall correctly, I think he mentioned (but not necessarily in that review) that they might indeed be coming out with a more powerf... | |
| Interconnects under 300 Check out the Acoustic BBQ cables. I've tried a ton of different cables ranging up to $2-3K over the years, and Bill's cables are competitive with anything I've had. They are also affordable. Highly recommended. I especially like his Schroeder-sty... | |
| Supratek or Don Sachs - which way to go? @cal3713 Congrats on your purchase of the Don Sachs preamp. I'm waiting on one myself--in fact, he's working on mine this week and may be ready to ship in a few more days.Did you also buy his KT88 amp? I did, though it will be several more weeks b... | |
| Orchid vs TUBADOUR III - Help me choose @facten To the best of my recollection, the upgrade options are not on the website. Here is the info I received from Vlad via email:1. Duelund caps 2. Z-foil resistors 3. Balanced outputs 4. I2S input I did not include associated costs for each up... | |
| Orchid vs TUBADOUR III - Help me choose +1 on the Tubadour with upgrades. I got one about a month ago and love it.No experience with the Orchid, but my Tubadour isn't going anywhere anytime soon. | |
| Lyngdorf TDAI-3400 @mifanning I hope you enjoy the 3400 as much as I did. It is such a versatile, great-sounding piece. Great pleasure to meet you in person as well. | |
| How many audiophiles do you need to change a lightbulb? Doesn't matter. You're going to change it again in fifteen minutes. | |
| False Advertising @steakster I think you misunderstood my post, or else I didn't make myself clear. I am saying that the buyer has protection unless he used the Friends and Family option. | |
| False Advertising @t_ramey Unless you used the friends and family gift option through Paypal, you are holding all the cards. If it were me, I would give the guy a day or two to give you a partial refund that seems fair to you, but only if you want to keep the pream... | |
| Just wanted to share that I got a new reviewing gig with Six Moons.com website Congrats, Teajay. And well-earned. A lot of us are indebted to you for guiding us to affordable, but amazing sounding audio gear. I look forward to following your work in Six Moons. | |
| Tekton Design's new THE PERFECT SET equals "goosebumps time" @mac48025 --- that may depend on how many times you've received forgiveness :)For the time being, I will just have to live vicariously through several of you guys who have been able to take the leap. I do not think I can part with my Encores, wh... | |
| Tekton Design's new THE PERFECT SET equals "goosebumps time" Thanks a LOT, guys. Now I am trying to figure out a way to persuade my spouse to understand why I need a second system with the Perfect SET speakers and the Triode Labs 2A3 amp. As friends go, you guys are very expensive. :) |
