First Watt F8, passive preamp, DAC I think you should be ok with digital, do you know the output of your DAC? I have run a DAC directly into a SIT-2 which is 18db of gain and it worked great. Running the same DAC into a SIT-3 with only 11.5 of gain was also fine, although I did r... | |
Axpona 2022 My favorite room is the Nenuphar,room with silversmith Cables.I think they are using Pass labs or ayre gear sorry I can’t remember You got to hear Nelson's Beast With 1000 JFETS! Congrats, I'm jealous. | |
JBL L100 Classic 75's - Thoughts, Impressions, Serial Numbers Congrats, the 75's really look stunning. I only heard the L100 at the dealer. They can rock effortlessly. They scared me off because to me they seemed very bass heavy, and this was in a large listening room at the dealer with quite a bit of spa... | |
Best cable for record cleaner, ever You won the forum today. | |
Who loves Cotton ?? I used some really skinny gauge Jupiter copper hookup wire in cotton as a speaker cable on some of the Zu 16 ohm models (skinny wire had been recommended by my tube amp designer and by Sean at Zu). It worked quite well, the wire sounded just as g... | |
Quick speaker review: Ojas DIY kit Wow, those look awesome. Congrats. I'd love to hear them after seeing the cool video profiles that people have recently done on Devon. | |
Guess How Big My Speakers Are Looks like room bass node at 30hz. Given the flat response above 10khz, I'd say 3 way floorstanding speaker with 8 inch woofer. | |
How good is Pass INT25? I believe the INT25 is basically the XA25 with a 6db gain buffer in front of it for a preamp section, so you can also use XA25 reviews as your guide. I use Nelson's First Watt SIT amps with my Coherent speakers (which are also high efficiency lik... | |
Sansui 2000X Zu Dirty Weekends pair great with a vintage Sansui! Playing an AU-666 with a pair of Zu as I type. | |
Zu introduces Soul 6 I should clarify my original post, it was taken from Zu's site on the day Soul 6 was released. Some corrections/additions:Cabinet is the same size as Soul mk.II: 31.5 inchesEntire cabinet structure is Okoume, not veneered fiberboardBass extension ... | |
Devore 0/96 - Integrated AMP help Not to stray too far off topic but has anyone had the opportunity to compare Devore with Coherent Audio speakers from Canada?Yes, I have had both O/93s and Coherent Model 10’s in my room at the same time. I prefer the Coherents on sound, and facto... | |
Zu introduces Soul 6 Zu has been slow getting them rolled out due to supply issues. There are a couple of people on the Zu owners facebook group who have them and say they are the real deal. | |
Cheap Amazon Chinese tube pre amps I've used an APPJ mini2013 every day for the last 6 years in my bedroom system with my Zus. Love it, and it holds its own when I've hooked up much more expensive amps against it. | |
Class D for a Tube Lover I would also concur with SPEC amps. As Bjeisen said they are not cheap. Also they like a higher impedance load. I would not describe them as tubey but they do sound richly toned with higher impedance speakers like Zu Omen and DeVore O93. | |
Zu Soul Supreme with Leben CS300xs (or Harbeth XX.X?) If you keep it below 80db then I think it would be a fantastic combo. Between 9-10:00 on the dial was extremely loud with the Zus. |
