| Can tube amps give true high end bass? So one guy wants to make a n offer on my JOR. I told him "don't you know what you are buying, , Its Jadis. Not your everyday average tube intergrated". Man Jadis 10+ yrs now, and so few folk know what jadis really is. We need a Jadis topic.Paul | |
| problem with rega planet Narrod, sure, But thought I'd pass on a 'best kept secret". No harm done , right? Or should I demo competition so I can find out I;'m wrong, that the cayin is less than my opinion??? Not sure why my experience counts for so little around here. How... | |
| Tube amps and speaker ohms Eagleman, feel free to ask w/o feeling you will get criticized. I get snides and insults due to lack of tech knowledge, snotty attitude, "mister-know-it-all", negativity, closed minded-ness. So as long as you don't follow me, you'll do all right h... | |
| Tube amps and speaker ohms Paul , ss amps may be the "ideal" for demanding speakers, but since I do not care for ss amps, I look for certain tube amps that can carry a relatively heavy load. I agree stats/panels/ribbons need ss current for optimum response. Vandersteens nee... | |
| problem with rega planet ahh you should had bought a Cayin 17. Mine is working perfect after 4 yrs. cdp's have a notorious reputation of break downs. Know which break down(avoid) and which are reliable(purchase). | |
| Tube amps and speaker ohms Yeah but can they produce a musical image equal or similar as does 2 tube amp labs that i have in mind. Its all about who can get closest to the high fidelity musical image. Audiofeil feels since i know nothing of the tech side and so suffer from ... | |
| Tube amps and speaker ohms Tvad, I should have posted about driver in house design vs mass market poly cones, on the topic Harbeth vs Tyler. i goofed up, and mixed comments. Back to topic of tube amps transformers and the resistance from the motor and crossovers in speaker ... | |
| Tube amps and speaker ohms Raul you hit on a essential issue in tube amp output. The impedance factor of the speakers, how difficult is it to keep the motor of the speakers moving in a musical line as the fq's change or amount of fq's are thrown at the amp. Which big orch d... | |
| Tube amps and speaker ohms raul. i googled amplifier output impedance and got several hits. The info if over my understanding, but will try to work with the ideas. I grasp that quality of transformers is vital in tube design, especially when driving a devil of a speaker suc... | |
| Harbeth vs. Tyler Interesting that the comments made on Ty's open forum line up closely with reviews here and on Audioreview.com.Ooka ha sto do his own DD and make his decision. Thats how I found my speakers, through hours of research. And I had a good idea of what... | |
| Harbeth vs. Tyler Well mark don't believe Sally. Like you I don;t believe mags reviews either. On this one she was correct. In spite of her throwing in a compliment on the Spendor. Which I subsequently heard and totatlly disagree with her on.As I say I am not a fan... | |
| Harbeth vs. Tyler Newbee good point. You'll never see Seas and Dr Appolito renaming the thor 'thor mk2'. Its a final design. Madisound offers you an upgrade version of the xover, which i galdly pd $150 more. The design has been out now 5 or 6 yrs and its the same s... | |
| Harbeth vs. Tyler Sonfun you really like to back up your country's products. Lets keep things civil OK. No need to go into trashy uncool remarks. I gave my opinion, you went beyond the bounds. If the Harbeth is such a great speaker , nothing i say could/would take ... | |
| Harbeth vs. Tyler Mark S's "dis-information" comment that the Tyler's "Lack natural tonal qualities and musicalities". Mark your opinion goes totally against everything Sally Renolyds wrote in Oct issue of Absolute Sound. Also go to audioreview.com. Every review gi... | |
| Harbeth vs. Tyler Ahh here's the big difference for me. harbeth is british. i do not like the british sound. Though Ooka may like it. Its personal preference. And i was not refering only to the cabinet. The poly drivers look cheap. |
