| phono stage for Rega Apheta 2 thanks for the help so far. I did have a question about the gain. One of the reviews I came across about the Chinook cautioned that the gain was a little lower than other phono stages so careful matching to the cartridge was in order. And if I ... | |
| Border Patrol Dac I have one and love it. I have it hooked up to Marantz CD player (CD6006) and have Prima Luna HP integrated with Totem Sttaf speakers and it was a big leap forward. Of course your mileage may vary but I tend to agree with the description in the ... | |
| Totem like sound for tube amplification You mentioned some of the Totem line but not the Sttaf. I have the Primaluna Premium HP integrated driving a pair of Sttaf. I think it is a great combination. From your post I assume that the thinking is that the Primaluna does not pair with the... | |
| Vocals and upper midrange too forward? Thanks for the updated suggestions. Looking forward to trying the 4 ohm tap as that suggestion sounds intriguing. I am hanging on to that one when I get a chance to get back and experiment! | |
| Vocals and upper midrange too forward? Thanks everyone. I am not giving up yet. Gonna try a few things and then I still have the Totem speakers to go back to if needed. | |
| Vocals and upper midrange too forward? Thanks for all the replies. Looks like I've got some experimenting to do. Positioning them straight ahead may be the way to go in that room with these speakers and oddly enough I thought there MAY have been improvement when there were no spikes (... | |

| very dumb question Thanks again for all the input. And that Decware phono stage that tablejockey mentioned is certainly interesting if the Aria is too bright. | |
| very dumb question So I called and caught them before anything had shipped and cancelled the Brio. Was able to change it to an open box Rega Aria phono stage that they had. Originally that was what was in my mind at the original order I think (Brio, Aria, Brio, Ar... | |
| very dumb question Thanks for all the responses and advice. It was basically a screw up when I purchased the Brio-R. I wanted to Rega RP6 so that is ok but then the conversation turned to the phono stage and there was a communication breakdown between me and the s... | |
| Primaluna Dialogue HP integrated the last sentence should say the Prima Luna was plugged in | |
| Primaluna Dialogue HP integrated I currently have the HP Integrated. I like it a lot. Previously used it with Totem Sttaf speakers. (sensitivity at 87db). Now currently using it with Devore Fidelity Gibbon 88 (sensitivity at 90db if remember correctly). Anyway, the HP Integra... | |
| Speaker choice : need help between Nola and Sonus Faber Thanks all for the replies. I plan to go with the Silverline Prelude Plus here shortly. | |
| Speaker choice : need help between Nola and Sonus Faber good to know about an experience with the silver line. I think I am headed that direction | |
| Speaker choice : need help between Nola and Sonus Faber Thanks for the info. Those Silverline Prelude Plus speakers certainly look interesting . . |
