| Problems with my Tri-Vista 300--Need some help Timf, I thank you very much for your post. It seems as though our problems are very comparable both in development and solution. Like I said, who can truly grasp the strangeness of circuits and electricity. Even the best equipment can develop such... | |
| Problems with my Tri-Vista 300--Need some help check that. Inexplicably, the source selector has started to work properly again. Don't know why. Who can figure out the idiosyncrasies of circuits and electricity. I'll keep my fingers crossed in hopes that the selector continues to work properly... | |
| Problems with my Tri-Vista 300--Need some help I want to thank everyone once again for your replies on this thread. I managed to get my amp back today with new tubes. Indeed, the original trivistors were faulty and are now replaced. Probably the first instance of bad tubes on this gear.Secondl... | |
| JM Labs Electra 937Be vs.Diva Utopia Be vs. Mezzo David, I certainly appreciate what you are saying. I'm sure the Mezzos are a dynamite speaker for your system and certainly one that I'm strongly considering as well. Yes, the prices are good on that one. I wasn't aware of Yamaha's experiments pre... | |
| JM Labs Electra 937Be vs.Diva Utopia Be vs. Mezzo thanks for that reply David. I agree that the Mezzos are a pretty great speaker too. But I don't think the beryllium tweeter is only hype. I think JM Labs went to a lot of work on that one and produced a very clear, very dynamic tweeter. I'm still... | |
| JM Labs Electra 937Be vs.Diva Utopia Be vs. Mezzo Hi Panderso, Bill here. We talked before. I was all set to get the Micros in November, and then I had a change of heart after one last audition. I decided to go for more bass extension. I pondered it over and realized if I had more patience, I'd h... | |
| Problems with my Tri-Vista 300--Need some help Thanks Chris. Looks like I may have finally hit paydirt over here. Triode Electronics in Chicago finally came through after two weeks it seems. Going to have these tubes on Friday. I was getting worried after substantial waiting that they wouldn't... | |
| B&W Nuatilus Timpani, as I stated above, I think the new diamond series is overrated. I'd take the Signature 800 anyday over that series. I think your friend made a very wise decision. It's a great speaker--one of the top two or three I've ever heard. With the... | |
| JM Labs Electra 937Be vs.Diva Utopia Be vs. Mezzo yeah thanks for that post. I have been reading the tech info at the Focal site and it's quite interesting. But I'm not sure what the Utopia series adds specifically from the Electra. For example, how do the different crossover points affect the so... | |
| Problems with my Tri-Vista 300--Need some help Quick update. Looks like the local repair guy will be able to replace the tubes without a hitch. He tested them and said two were faulty. Called MF and they said it was their first experience with such a thing. Meanwhile, I have an order in with a... | |
| JM Lab Electra Be 'LIMITED'??? Heard the 937 Be yesterday and was very impressed. I've set up a new thread to compare it with the Diva, which is comparable, I'd say.Limited edition just means that a certain quantity are produced and they won't make anymore. The other speakers i... | |
| Musical Fidelity A5 CD player - long Nice review. What's the retail on this product and the A5 integrated? I wonder how it would stack up to the Nu-Vista 3D, which I own, and the Tri-Vista SACD on redbook, which I don't own. Did you have a chance to sample these at Upscale as well? I... | |
| Problems with my Tri-Vista 300--Need some help thanks for all the replies, everybody. We don't need to get into the merits or lack thereof of MF gear. I think they make great stuff and have a lot of integrity. But this is a rather odd problem that shouldn't be happening with a new piece of gea... | |
| Problems with my Tri-Vista 300--Need some help This has gotten quite ugly. I took the amp in for repairs to a shop in the electronics market here that handles all kinds of brands. I just got a call last evening with some very bad news. It seems that two of the six trivistor tubes used in the a... | |
| B&W Nuatilus rockethouse, it was all high, high end Esoteric amplification and digital sourcing. I don't remember the particular models because they were way, way out of my league in terms of price range. Well over 20 grand. But terrific they were. |
