| Need some help with preamp selection I've been advised in the past to look at the Belles 28A Ref pre-amp. I have not had a chance to do so therefore, I cannot describe what I've heard. There are many good threads on pre-amps floating around on Audiogon from which you can glean much u... | |
| Krell Evo 505 vs Esoteric X-05 or X-03 I am a fan/current owner of Esoteric gear and have owned the DV-50s, UX-1/Limited and currently own the P-03U and D-03. They play everything (except Dual Disc as documented) without an issue and do it extremely well. I have also heard and been ext... | |
| Tara Labs the One vs the Two Ok, thanks...I have no experience with The One vs The Two for LP-related usage. For interconnects The One is just that much 'more' of everything if you get my meaning. My favorite version of The One interconnect is the version with the HFX Floatin... | |
| Tara Labs the One vs the Two What parts of your system are you looking to 'complete' with either The Two or The One? Can you give more details on your components and interconnects, speaker cable, etc...as it exists today? | |
| Hi. I need help to choose preamp for my system. If you choose the Krell pre-amp to mate with your Krell amps, I'd suggest A-B'ing balanced versus all-CAST. Anytime I've heard Krell gear, all-CAST is the best sound option. | |
| Hi. I need help to choose preamp for my system. Depending upon your budget and your desire to buy new or used and your desire to match/not match your amps, etc....I'd suggest Classe CP-500 or CP-700, SimAudio P7 or P8, Krell KCT, Krell 202 and others. | |
| Classe Owners Please Help need FCC Good luck with your new amps; I hope that you determine a way to get customs to release them. I've checked again, there is no such FCC number here and I've never heard of such a thing being required as long as the shipper created a proper invoice ... | |
| Any really good power cables for a Plasma HDTV ? Shunyata Python Helix VX. It does wonders for video quality and clarity for DLP, Plasma, LCD, DirectView CRT, etc...(have used it on all 3 types). | |
| Classe Owners Please Help need FCC I just checked the back of both boxes of my CP-700 pre-amp as well as looking in the CAM-400, Omega Mono, SSP-600 and other Classe manuals online. I'm not able to the find the FCC number you are referencing. I'd suggest you send an email to cservi... | |
| See if you can "predict" a future ground loop hum? The same thing could happen (and has to me) in an old setup with non-specialized but separate circuits; it happens due to the equipment plugged into the 2 separate circuits seeing different ground potential (at least as I understand what I've hear... | |
| Need Processor Input The SSP-600 is a great processor and sounds extremely good; it's 2-channel balanced bypass can take the place of a pre-amp for 2-channel listening if you don't have extra money to spend on the extra box. If you are using your player to decode the ... | |
| Need Processor Input Oops....my last post (12-21) once it is approved has discussion on balanced bypass. You were asking about HT bypass for which there is ample support from Classe procs and MANY others on the market. | |
| HELP : Best pre and power amps for B&W804 and HTM2 Having heard the Classe SSP-300 and SSP-600 with with Classe amps and B&W speakers (including he 804's and HTM2), I'd suggest looking at the SSP-300. One caveat is that the SSP-300 does not give you balanced inputs or outputs.Another fantastic... | |
| Need Processor Input If the quality of your 2-channel audio/music listening means alot to you, I'd suggest finding a great 2-channel pre-amp that has a home-theater bypass capability and using the pre-amp together with a good processor. I've done this in the past and ... | |
| HELP : Best pre and power amps for B&W804 and HTM2 You can still enjoy HDMI video by running an HDMI cable directly from your video player to your HDTV and using another input on the HDTV. The minor inconvenience is that you have to switch both your processor as well as your HDTV to the respective... |
