| Good Listening Lately Sons of Champlain...brilliant...we used to say they were FAR better than Chicago (way ahead of their time I think) and ironically Bill Champlain winds up in Chicago (maybe his longest gig)...strange... Champlain's solo stuff from late 70s or early... | |
| Why are subwoofers so polarizing? Than...not that. | |
| Why are subwoofers so polarizing? Balderdash...I trust my own ears far more that an avalanche of nonesense. | |
| Why are subwoofers so polarizing? Bo1972 is utterly full of crap in his ridiculously overstated comments regarding the myth of sub "speed" and should be ignored. Otherwise he's fine. | |
| emotiva mono block amps any good? Sometimes the best part of the upper crust is the flakiest. | |
| KT120 longevity Isochronism...I rarely changed guitar amp tubes. Unless something started sounding strange or blew up (VERY rare) I blasted through various Twin Reverbs, my white Bandmaster head, and whatever Boogie/Marshall/Hiwatt I had. Maybe because I couldn't... | |
| KT120 longevity Thanks for nothing my fellow tubeheads. I'm aware of Tube Death Theory but still wonder how long this particular tube type can continue before becoming land fill. Mine are still seemingly in the 4,750 hour break-in period. They're boring me with t... | |
| suggest an under $2000 amp to match 4ohm speakers A powerful Jolida is less expensive (in your budget as new actually) than a Primaluna, you can play with the "ez bias" which makes you a part of the amp instead of a mere bystander, and tubes are simply more fun. Mid-fi is a weirdly lame category ... | |
| Does this speaker exist? Silverline Prelude. | |
| A question about preamplifiers and headphones My tube headphone amp (from Ebay..."Bravo" 12AU7 brand, although there are various versions out there) from China took a week to get here and cost around forty bucks shipped. The power supply died and they shipped me a new supply free of charge ri... | |
| Recommendations for a "summer" amp? I think a quiet room fan obviates any tube amp issues from the heat sensitive among us, and a quiet fan won't disturb the experience any more than hearing Uncle Clem outside with your cousin Betsy screaming from the moonshine still behind the pigs... | |
| Bob Carver LLC has been purchased by Emotiva Knghfi...my assumptions are never wrong, or so I assume. I'm absolutely certain Emotiva has no desire to make money and exists merely to serve mankind as a humble hifi friend, and to make Bob Carver's life easier with a pile of money...or at least... | |
| Why do some audiophiles beat up McIntosh? The description of selling Mac stuff to doctors and lawyers back in the day seems perfect...note again that with every manufacturer (of nearly anything) that's been around that long there's great stuff, and some not so great stuff, and so what? I ... | |
| Bob Carver LLC has been purchased by Emotiva I don't get the reasons for Emotiva lowering the price of these amps. I assumed that with all the hype and glowing reviews these things are selling well, and keeping the prices at the same level is more profitable...I can only assume Emotiva doesn... | |
| Bob Carver LLC has been purchased by Emotiva I have nothing to do with Canada but I plan to take Canada Day off anyway...why not? |
