| Magico Q7 . . . wow I checked...they were the Q5s. | |
| Powered subwoofers running into power amp? El redundo amundo. "Loading" of the low impedance balanced signal from a pro audio mixer to the balanced inputs of pro amps in the real world is nearly non-existant, and nobody who mixes shows (like me, for decades) worries about this even when us... | |
| Cable re-burn in Can excessive gear burn-in lead to burn-in burnout? Can you be burned by listening to non burned-in gear? Can burn-in lead to burn up in extreme cases? If you lower the temperature of a listening room does your cable reverse burn-in? Is reverse bu... | |
| WHAT DO YOU THINK OF THE LINN K 9 CARTRIDGE? I stuck a Sumiko Pearl on an Akito and it sounds AMAZING...inexpensive little gem. | |
| Magico Q7 . . . wow Were those the Q5s? Maybe they were...I'll check...if they were the Q5s, please apply everything I said to the Q5s, and not the Q7s if in fact that's what they were. If they were the Q5s, they were huger than I remembered, and if the Q7s are huger... | |
| Kelsie/KAVD/Kavent gone? That's too bad, and makes me wonder what happened to whatever gear was left over, although I assume it was sold someplace. I also hope that anybody who repairs Vincent stuff could fix my preamp if it ever needs it since it has "Vincent" printed ri... | |
| Magico Q7 . . . wow I heard the Q7s at Goodwin's gigantic room. They are (like all Magicos) a completely insane design and I'm glad they're out there, just like I'm glad somebody makes Bugattis. For my final opinion (on the Q7s) please have 6 people squeeze 'em into ... | |
| Powered subwoofers running into power amp? Actually...plenty of powered bass bins (Mackies for example) have a "pass through" feature that will work exactly as you described. I've sent stereo signals to a powered sub equipped with SIGNAL outs from it to pro powered main speakers, and it wo... | |
| jolida fx10 If it's a "desktop" setup it maybe makes sense, but a used (or even new) tube integrated with more watts per side (like a Jolida or Primaluna something or other) can be relatively inexpensive, sound similar, and allows you to get some real juice g... | |
| Digital Emperor has no clothes Yeah...a LOT more fun. | |
| Digital Emperor has no clothes Tonyangel...your system IS high end, I bet it sounds great, and you clearly dig it...I have the same sort of stuff and have had a similar reaction to HDTracks...hit or miss just like everything else in art and music. I checked out some Magico Q7s ... | |
| Digital Emperor has no clothes Are we having fun yet? | |
| Digital Emperor has no clothes I was referred to this article by a successful tube amp designer...I have no opinions...except maybe these: A basic reality of audio is that better built gear sounds better, and better recordings sound better on that gear. Astonishing. I like the ... | |
| Jolida 502 KT120 tube swapping Don't be sorry. I appreciate the feedback and respect your technical tweak choices, although you assume I have the ability to install, match, and adjust this stuff when I rarely venture past soldering something that looks unsoldered. That said, I'... | |
| Speaker for Rogue Cronus Magnum with high WAF Totem Forests maybe. |
