| SS/Mono Amps Warm,Musical,Detailed For the cheap but can be modified try the B&K mono's. They show up for $700 a pair every so often and can be moidified for under $1000. 150 peak amps, 200 wpc. They are warm musical and with the mods offer really nice details.Happy Listening. | |
| Does the original Audio Logic stand up to new dacs OK, put me down as number three (3). The 34 may have slightly less bass dynamics/slam then some of the SS DACs I have owned, but talk about how real vocals sound and it is hard to beat especially for the used prices on Agon. Then just sit back and... | |
| RIP Ray Charles I saw Ray about 5 years ago in a little place, he was just plain fantastic. Love ya Ray!! | |
| AL 24MXL VS Trivista DAC? No contest. The AL DAC was a more refined DAC, wider and deeper soundstage, just much more musical to my ears. You can get them so cheap used that they are a complete bargin. Buy one, get some good tubes and don't ever think about it.Happy Listening. | |

| Tube Recommendations for Counterpoint 5000 & 220? I am looking for a real sound that probably leans towards a tube mid range sound or warmer sound. Does anyone have experience with trying different tubes in the SA-220 amp and what were your results? I was thinking about Amperex Bugle Boy 6DJ8s I ... | |

| BAT VK 75SE and ARC VT 100 MKIII Btstrg makes a strong point. You cannot comment on a thread, add nothing that helps a person make a decision and then have your amp up for sale, especially since you hae not added to Agon with other threads.Now, it really all comes down to speaker... | |
| Comments please: ARC LS 25 mk 2 vs. Ref 2 mk 1 I also agree with the above. The Ref 2 is more tube like than the 25 MKII. You will need to change the power cord on the Ref 1 and then enjoy.Happy Listening. | |
| Stereo system Too Bright Whoa, how far out into the room are the speakers? Change the position to see what happens first. Next get a 14" bike inner tube, blow it up some and set it under the CDP to see if the sound becomes less bright. Do the same to the preamp. If not, t... | |

| Musical Fidelity X-24K The DAC can receive an input of 16 and 24 bits. It has lights to tell you what it is receiving. If your CDP can only send a 16 bit signal then that is all the DAC will spit out. There are a few DIPs that take the signal and up it to 24 bits so tha... |
