| 300b lovers On Don Sachs' recommendation, I have been using them both his preamp and amps for quite a while. Nothing but... dead.... silence. | |
| Fiber optic USB cable users? Sorry, I can't answer your question. | |
| Cube Audio Nenuphar Single Driver Speaker (10 inch) TQWT Enclosure I have had the Cube Jazzon speakers since late June of this year. David Ten has raved about Cube speakers on this thread and others and that is what I heard at Axpona when they were played with Pass Labs gear. Sensation speakers is what I heard. ... | |
| Recommendation Request for Tube Power Amplifier I second Soix's recommendation on a Don Sachs Kt88 amp. I have one and it will drive your 8 ohm 86db sensitive speakers just fine. I'd take a look at the link Soix provided and consider buying it. I wouldn't sell mine for anywhere nearly as low... | |
| 300b lovers Lynn, I appreciate your candid views about the efficacy of DACs at varying price points. I was in the Spatial room when you heaped praise on the Mola Mola dac in the Songer/Whammerdyne room, a far less expensive DAC than the Lampi DAC in your roo... | |
| 300b lovers Pindac, Please define EE and VC for my edification. I am slow. | |
| 300b lovers Lynn, I hope you bounce back soon from Covid. I got Covid in the remote state of South Dakota last year so go figure. Your meds will surely alleviate the symptoms. Pindac, I heard the Jubilees in a local dealer's room and they are truly sublim... | |
| 300b lovers Robert, We are among the fortunate to have Don's gear and I certainly share your opinion of the the room. We both got to meet Don in person for the first time and he is a great guy, for sure. Same with Lynn Olson. Now with a month of run in wi... | |
| 300b lovers Lynn makes note of hearing Purifi Class D amps at the show in a favorable way. I did hear Atma-Sphere's new GaN mono amps driving the the Tekton Moabs and I thought they sounded excellent. I could easily see a synergy between the Raven and Ralp... | |
| 300b lovers First things first. I share Lynn's sorrow for Edisoncarter's perceptions of how he was treated in the room and honor his impressions, with the exception of this thread being a shrill for their gear. But personally being camped out in the room o... | |
| 300b lovers Understood. The Kootenai is a fantastic amp, as I know having one. Let your pocketbook be your guide, but to be honest, Don and Lynn's 300b monos are in a whole different realm of musical excellence. Maybe you can come hear them at the Seattle ... | |
| 300b lovers Wig, Dandy system you have, for sure. You have nominal 4 ohm speakers and if the Kootenai drives them to your satisfaction, then the 300b Statement monos will drive them as well, with an astonishing clarity that will be simply stunning. Cheers. | |
| 300b lovers Don and Thom, Gents, with all due respect, an 81-83 db SPL from my speakers conveys none of the emotional aspect of my music so I prefer it more around 88-90 db, thereabouts. I want a visceral impact to the sound of my system and 83 db does not ... | |
| 300b lovers Lynn, Oh yea of little faith... Very few speakers play nearly as well as the Spatials in less-than-perfect rooms and your front end will be tremendous so great sound is a foregone conclusion. Your room is gonna sound sensational and I am going ... | |
| 300b lovers Lynn, My local tube tech was good friends with Charlie who lived near Sacramento and he had immense respect for him. He published a magazine which I am sure you aware of, 100% tube centric. I never met him but he was a legend in this neck of th... |
