| The imperfect amp: Pass or Ayre? I use Elixer Nanoweb lights. | |
| Matching Gear matter to you? I like my (Silver) Schiit Freya preamp...I like it a lot...does Schiit make a single ended all tube hand wired point to point power amp? Since they don't, my little (black with gold front panel) tube amp will suffice, and it suffices the hell outt... | |
| The imperfect amp: Pass or Ayre? My power amp, one of Dennis Had's SEP High Output tubsters (10 to 17 WPC allegedly), is one that I hope nobody ever measures for anything as that could harsh my mellow. | |
| Rel "legacy" subs and fixing the amplifiers. I was told by REL they won't fix my older model subs (which are working fine) which simply means I'll be having nothing to do with their new products...nice marketing there REL! | |
| The imperfect amp: Pass or Ayre? I get Eric's point as it is amazing that people nearly unanimously think those ridiculous Pass and Ayre amps sound great. Why? From listening to them? BALDERDASH I say...it's all about esoteric measurements that, even if most music fans don't unde... | |
| Anyone have experience with the Tung Sol 7581a vs. EL34, KT66, KT88, 6L6 No clue about the bias requirements as that seems to be amp specific, but if you can use all the tubes you noted I bet the 7581a would work fine. | |
| Pass XA25 or Pass XA 30.8 What’s that, Ess A? The SA just snuck if there as a Mex street cred moment, but it’s good to see that anybody reads my posts. | |
| Anyone heard Schiit's Aegir? Because they're BAD BAD BAD. And, it doesn't seem to matter much. | |
| Pass XA25 or Pass XA 30.8 I was seriously considering the extremely well regarded SA25 until I read the Schiit Aegir review in Stereophile (and, of course, I believe everything I read there...I mean who doesn’t?)...before spending 5 grand or whatever on the Pass amp (likel... | |
| From tubes back to SS? I'm planning to check out a Schiit Aegir just from curiosity, and it's one fifth the cost of a Pass XA25 which was another amp I was interested in (still am). My little Dennis Had SEP is a great sounding amp but, again, curiosity, and I'll keep th... | |
| Klipsch!. The worst speaker company, EVER? MJCMT...my ears have been subjected to being attached to a head that's been in the music biz for over 5 decades, and they work fine. I don't mix these small venue live shows to ear blasting loudness so that's not hard on my ears at all, and the st... | |
| How to listen to music. You can't possibly be hearing any difference between those fuses. | |
| Schiit Freya S or Freya +? I like to roll through the 3 output options on my "original version" Freya from time to time although it's in the tube mode normally...it's a way to see if your tubes are in good shape, and that's possible instantly on my Freya. To satisfy some cr... | |
| Sonist Audio Still, it's listed as a post and that in itself is sort of interesting. | |
| Something For The Fuse Guys ... Oregonpapa...with your new hyperbole laden thread you're the one providing the "new horse," and if anyone could be accused of "beating it to death" (however unfortunate that anachronistic saying might be) with paragraph after paragraph of nonsense... |
