| Should listings include the age of the item? Yeah, it would be nice to list the age. But if it's not listed, just ask. Easy, no? | |
| Components that you regret parting with? Tandberg TR-2045 receiver. Transformer failed. | |
| Help me diagnose the problem I am going to move the suspect KT90 to a different tube socket. If I continue to blow the V1 fuse it's not the tube. If I blow the fuse corresponding to wherebI move the tube, It's the tube- | |
| Stereophile Class A tables I've heard some class A items, and have had mixed feelings. Some have been wonderful and other were just expensive. What I don't understand is if A is supposed to be the best without any practical consideration why should their be such a wide vari... | |
| Anyone else receive low offers right away ? Regardless of what the offer is the seller always has the right to say NO. This is business, it's not personal.I've made some lowish offers. I do this to get the ball rolling. And to my surprise, my first offer is sometimes accepted. | |
| Rogue Audio Tempest ii and Tempest iii I own a Tempest II Magnum. Since the III was released I communicated with Rogue to find out what the differences are and what the update cost is. From what I was told, there is the headphone amps you mention plus a switchable active line stage. Th... | |
| Fremer lays an Ostrich egg... Too much "ink spilled" on two diverging opinions already. I would not hang my hat on the words of any reviewer.For me a review is a starting point, not the destination. I would certainly want to hear something based on a great review but would not... | |
| In what price range do I need to go for a Dac ? FWIW I like the 260D better than a $4,000 Meridian I once owned. If you like the basic big boned presentation of the 260D you may flip over the 650 | |
| Headphone Amps Add this to your list to consider- Heed Canamp. | |
| Mcintosh MC501 or MC 352 for Sonus Faber Cremona I have heard Cremonas with the MC352 in a friend's system. Nice set up, and far more than powerful enough. Not lacking in detail or slow (I often feel the two are related), in my opinion. Coherency? Could be a point. | |
| Warm, lush and smooth interconnect help You have to audition cables in your system. How a particular cable is considered in another system may not be very revealing at all. I have found- in my system- Analysis Plus Solo Crystal cables are excellent and well priced, especially if buying ... | |
| Tube Amp For Revel F52`s...? I have RevelF30's which are no easier to drive and maybe a touch tougher because the impedance drops a little lower than the F52's. I am driving my F30s quite well with a Rogue Tempest II Magnum. I think a Rogue Cronus Magnum would also work quite... | |
| Free stuff you didn't know you needed Free? Hah! My young son, after seeing this app in action, is begging me to get a McIntosh preamp. I suppose it's my fault he even knows that the meters resemble those found on a Mac Pre. | |
| Speaker placement question- I went to the Cardas site and found the page on speaker placement. Plugging in my room width, the Cardas site suggests placing my speakers a touch closer to each other but noticably further into the room. It's a nice placement at the expense of ba... | |
| best vintage stereo receiver Once owned a Tandberg 2045. Very nice till the transformer failed. I also have had quite good experiences with some mid 70's Pioneer and Marantz receivers. FWIW, 35 years ago or so, manufacturers really did put out good receivers. I always thought... |
