| Morrow IC's To Morrow or not to Morrow…that is the question. And what’s wrong with Indianapolis? (Rhetorical question…please do not respond). Also, I want to find the guy who bought Morrow cables when they were NOT on sale…who is that guy? In any case, cables... | |
| Does anyone know what happened to SUMO Electronics? Curiousjim…no problemo, and full disclosure (!), I bought a Freya last November and it's a fun thing that's great for tube rolling. Also Stoddard wrote a book (or made a book out of a book length bunch of posts) about his adventures in the audio b... | |
| Does anyone know what happened to SUMO Electronics? I just did a web search and found piles of Sumo info…Jason Stoddard of Schiit was very involved, Jim Bongiorno…a Sumo fan Youtube site, etc. | |
| Question for tube aficionados I mentioned the 6SN7GTBs as between my preamp (Schiit Freya) and my amp (Dennis Had Firebottle HO) that's all there is for non power or rectifier tubes. My previous amp used 12AX7s and 12AT7s with my preference winding up as new Gold Lions for the... | |
| Question for tube aficionados EH and Sovteks can be amazing sounding tubes so those are well chosen...Gold Lion 12AX7s (new ones) are great and not too pricey…NOS Mullard 6201s are also very nice, and yeah…you can tell the difference. I now use 6SN7GTBs in both my SE power amp... | |
| Shiit Loki The Loki is inexpensive enough that sending it back is no big deal, and my experience with Behringer since it came along years ago is that it's very much made on the cheap, nearly disposable side of things. I know touring solo musicians who buy th... | |
| MAKING THE JUMP ... From Inherited Speakers to the right choice < 2K Price I recently bought a new pair of Klipsch Heresy IIIs after auditioning them and they might be the best 1500 bucks I've spent on audio. They need a sub though…but so do most other speakers. | |
| Two Type of sound and listener preference are there more? "Writing about music is like dancing about architecture"…a quote attributed to more than one author, but could be applied to writing about audio. Any system sounds right when you decide that for yourself. I am professionally involved in live music... | |
| Shiit Loki The highest Loki adjustment at 8khz should help, but if you're serious about sound you really need to get some rugs on the tile floors, and maybe curtains on the sides of the windows…you don't need to close 'em of course…nobody needs claustrophobi... | |
| Shiit Loki If there is too much bass reinforcement from the walls in gammaut's system, the Loki could certainly help it out…the 20hz knobulation design is amazingly well done, and if used with care it earns it's keep with aplomb. Aplombulation. | |
| Morrow IC's Comparing Morrow cables to others in some sort of "shoot out" seems like it could be a frustrating endeavor as disconnecting the Morrows is alleged to prompt "a day or two" of them recovering their mojo. This requires the cable reviewer to remembe... | |
| In search of Audible Nirvana, on a budget. Schiit Freya…a lot of fun for ridiculously little money, sounds great, balanced ins and outs, and it's a great excuse for a tube rolling obsession. | |
| Dealers hijacking the discussions I will never, and I mean never, whine to the wonderful, hard working, smart and good looking moderators (see how I did that?) about anyone's opinions, sales threads, or their criticisms about my posts….I'd rather discuss it. | |
| Coherent Speakers from Canada I'm pregnant with anticipation. | |
| Vandersteen 2CE Signature II: Is it worth the price of $2700? Why are so many for sale? I actually considered taking the covers off my 1Bs but instead sent them to Vandy for re-covering after they were abused by cats…a cat trampoline is part of the deal. Got them back and sold them immediately as I couldn't take it…I had done the fla... |
