| Hey K.....tt, Do you even have speakers?? I'm a little confused by this thread as I'm wondering, who am I supposed to ridicule? | |
| Pass Labs and Fuses In a few of my posts regarding fuse mythology I've asked the question, are all of the wires used in a component sorted for directionality? Wait...I think I know the answer: the answer is no. Moving on...Is the wiring in that jumble of direction ch... | |
| Upgrading System...Help/opinions on Parasound and others? Vincent makes great stuff, and a friend owns the earlier version of the SV237...236 maybe? In any case, I've listened to it a lot and it's pretty much all the amp one might need. Note the thing is massive...Audio Advisor allows returns without a r... | |
| Pass Labs and Fuses It's as if Ted Denny or his marketing department at SR puts out a signal to the sales force that they're overstocked with the fuses....which likely cost about eighty cents to produce including the orange paint. Get some cash flowing into the snake... | |
| Pass Labs and Fuses Tubes and capacitors are not fuses, not even close, and tube swapping (I don't change capacitors unless some malfunction has occurred, or, as in the case of a 60 year old tube guitar amp, they leak) results in interesting and obvious tonal changes... | |
| SET vs Class A vs tubes vs Class AB amps Lewinskih01/Horatio...on the Audio Aficionado site there are hundreds of pages devoted to all aspects of Dennis Had amps. That site can keep you busy for hours and make your head spin with the "what power tubes with what rectifier with what input ... | |
| Pass Labs and Fuses Fuses simply do not have a "sound" as they're not designed to...it doesn't matter how many hyperbole festooned claims of their sonic influence are written...they just can't and don't and will never do anything except wait patiently for something t... | |
| SET vs Class A vs tubes vs Class AB amps I like my SEP lower powered amp, as it simply sounds far better than any other amp I've used in my current (or previous) system, possibly because Dennis Had knows how to design a brilliant amp that I can afford (I saved over 50 grand by not buying... | |
| KEF-LS50 with REL T-Zero? Anyone? Adjusting things by listening to them? What a concept...I'm not a DSP fan and having used a couple of RELs for years I found that adjusting them by ear is really easy. I put the RELs at the point where the mains lose their bass production ability,... | |
| Quad Tube Rolling If your phono stage and preamp allow balanced connections you should 'em. Otherwise single ended works fine. | |
| What is your top priority items on Black Friday Sale. The only thing I look forward to on "Black Friday" is news coverage of shopping riots. | |
| What do you say to your audiophile friends who say you just listen to your equipment more My non audiophile friends know I'm a musician and concert sound mixer/producer so the audio geek thing makes sense to them. However, none of them gives a damn about my gear issues unless I'm using said gear to entertain them somehow, and even then... | |
| Pre Amp / Amp for Klipsch KLF-10 I've owned some great SS amps, and I think they all were Class A biased for the first few watts...most recently a fine sounding Forte Model 55 (the last of this brand and made without the IGBT transistors, using bipolars instead) that actually r... | |
| Rel sub cable options It took you over four and a half years for that response? | |
| Pre Amp / Amp for Klipsch KLF-10 My "I didn't actually NEED this thing" Schiit Aegir arrived yesterday and my initial opinion is that it's a sweet little amp. I'll wait a while before opining at length about it as I imagine it's going to be breaking-in a bit, but I can say it's d... |
