| phono preamp to power amp This Bellari VP 549 lists for $149.00. If you do a search on HIFI shark there are a few for $100 bucks. I’m sure the sellers will take less! https://www.bellariaudio.com/index.php/products/vp549-riaa-phono-preamp/ | |
| phono preamp to power amp What is your budget? | |
| phono preamp to power amp It all depends on the gain of the phono preamp, cartridge output and the input sensitivity of the amp! Since your amp has a volume control you have nothing to lose givin’ it a try!! | |
| Sound Stage and Imaging These Falcon IMF 100 are well under 2 grand shipped. You will need stands. My nephew has them and they are a true bargain! https://www.falconacoustics.co.uk/imf-100-completeathome-loudspeaker-system.html | |
| Effects of concrete as base for subs, speakers and potentially equipment I use these concrete step stones for a base under my speaker stands. I painted them black to match the color of the stands. The results are outstanding!! https://www.homedepot.com/b/Outdoors-Garden-Center-Hardscapes-Pavers-Stepping-Stones/N-5yc... | |
| Need an amp upgrade suggestion..... But not the usual upgrade request :-) Van Alstine should fit the bill. My friend is using the DVA SET 500 with his Harbeths and he is very happy with it! https://avahifi.com/collections/power-amplifiers | |
| Most recent speaker you audited in room and returned? Why did you return it? None! What say you? | |
| What does one need to know about playing old 78 rpm records? Here ya go! https://gradolabs.com/cartridges/prestige-series-specialty-cartridges/item/78-78-rpm | |
| Why don't they record in ‘surround stereo’? Quadrophonic was introduced back in the early seventies. It failed tremendously! | |
| power amp ideas for less than $3000 This Van Alstine should fit the bill. My friend is using that amp with his Harbeth M30.1s and is raving about it! https://avahifi.com/products/dva-set-500-stereo-power-amplifier | |
| Integrated with jacks for 2 sets of speakers? Any Yamaha has that feature! https://shop.usa.yamaha.com/en/c/audio-home-theater/hi-fi-components/integrated-amplifiers | |
| Cannot remove the grills from my Harbeth 30.2XD I use this magnet puller to remove the grills on my Harbeths. Many used Harbeths come with ripped grills and damaged edges from incorrect removal! https://www.homedepot.com/p/Master-Magnet-100-lb-Pull-Power-Handle-Magnets-96544/203613179 | |
| Is my amp good enough? @ tomic601 +1! | |
| What does the "high gain" option refer to when buying preamp tubes Tube depot charges $2.00 to test the tube. Like I said the gain is the same on all 6SN7s tubes. No test is going to change that! You should give them a call to explain what they mean! | |
| What does the "high gain" option refer to when buying preamp tubes All 6SN7s tubes are the same gain! 6SN7 is a dual triode vacuum tube with an eight-pin octal base. It provides a medium gain (20 dB). |
