| Best300b.com??? I bought twice from Frank at Best300B around 2 years ago and all went well. KR 5U4G RK each time. It's a wonderful tube. | |
| Low Output MC recommendations? The AT ART-9 MCs are a steal and hard to beat at multiples of the price. | |
| Buying New TV Need A Soundbar Recommendation I just did a shootout between the Bose 900 and Sonos Arc soundbars, and kept the Sonos. In my large room it did a better job of creating a visceral experience while maintaining clear dialog. Both are $900. I also compared them with their wireless ... | |
| SME is selling tonearms again! Crazy Eddie prices--insane! I paid $1,800 for my M2-12R when it first came out. Excellent arm but not at today's $4,100. | |
| Difference between Brinkmann Bardo and Oasis? Here we are, nearly a decade later, and I'm still enjoying my Oasis. It's not my only deck but I won't part with it. The Bardo and Oasis share the same platter, with the adhered crystal mat coming stock on the Oasis. After experimenting with sever... | |
| The problem with streaming If streaming puts you in the zone, buy all means, float downstream. I love streaming, and if I were a younger audiophile or just starting out, that’s the direction I’d take, pouring my resources into the best possible streaming sound. Unlimited mu... | |
| Linlai E 6sn7 tubes Too bad the Linlai 6sn7 is so huge. I’d like to try it but my amp takes two pairs and they’d be too close together for proper ventilation. Perhaps Linlai will make a more sensibly-sized version someday and dramatically expand their market. Hint, h... | |
| Line Magnetic LM-845 Premium - How quiet is it? @neptune123, glad it worked out! @sbank , I ended up selling the LX-380 and buying a used MQ-300 to mate with the Cornwall IV, and I love the combo. Remarkably, its 8 SET watts are more than enough in my large room. Just a great amp. | |
| Who uses ADS Speakers ADS threads come up periodically and it’s always nice to see these speakers get their due. I have LL1290 mkII powered by an HK 430 receiver and they sound absurdly good together. I think I paid like $500 combined, maybe 12 years ago. A crazy barga... | |
| SIMPLY AMAZING: Coda Technologies 07x Preamplifier Thanks, guys. | |
| SIMPLY AMAZING: Coda Technologies 07x Preamplifier Can any 07x owners clarify how many different sources can be connected? Reviewing the manual online is no help. From pics of the back, it looks like a total of 5: 2xXLR and 3xRCA (including processor in, which I'd assume works like another source ... | |
| SUT Interconnects I try to use a short length of whatever I'm using as a tonearm cable. | |
| Best Phono You've Heard Under $2200 The Modwright PH 9.0 is quite good. Separate MC and MM inputs; on the fly loading; selectable gain; tubed with Lundahl step ups. Even has a mono switch, which is surprisingly uncommon but useful. MSRP is a bit above your budget but you might be ab... | |
| Cartridge alignment, WallyTractor, SmartTractor, oscilloscope and Analogmaigk. If you're asking me, the answer should be obvious from my post: fewer than I have. Got it now? | |
| Klipsch Cornwall IV Uh, it's all in there. Why not sort through it yourself? You'll learn something. |
