| Power tubes on a lps Nice article on the tube comparisons. Thanks. I am now looking at some 6sn options as well. the gold lions I am using in my pre/dac/streamer sound better than the bugle boys I had been using. But I think its time to revisit those and a rect... | |
| Power tubes on a lps I do want to add something I keep going back to. I do miss the Vinnie Rossie / Red Wine overall sound. It can do it all and better with the right speakers. But I haven’t finished exploring what the rest if my system can do. Either iteration... | |
| Cables & streamers Maybe should read cables & amps. | |
| A New Integrated Amp I would suggest finding your speakers first. The more efficient they are, the more integrated amp choices you will have. I got nice sound from a rega, ps audio and rogue pharaoh with dali’s and jm reynauds. The rega hit its ceiling with my magn... | |
| AMT Tweeters integration I listened to Dali Opticon 6 MK 2’s and they had detail and nice tone, filled my small room very nicely with a solid center image. They were easy to drive as well. | |
| DAC's Streamer and Preamps I believe you can get into a new PS Audio Gold dac at 40% off. Go to their website. Nice reviews and it has a decent analog output stage if you need time to buy a preamp. | |

| Using digital 75/50 ohm cables for analog Thank you both for the information. If I should be at 100mOhm or lower, it sounds like the 75Ohm cable is not idea though maybe not necessarily audible unless it's putting "strain" on the device it's connected to? | |
| 14 ohm 7” midrange driver As I recall, I was not able to source replacement drivers and I reached out to a number of places. | |
| 14 ohm 7” midrange driver I was fortunate to find a guy who could repair mine. He did great work and there is no inconsistency between the left & right speaker. The speakers are still working today , quality work. Outlier Audio, 773-844-1983 | |
| Adding streaming services to a streamer via usb I appreciate the additional insight into your individual experiences. I'm going to grab a long lightning usb cable w/camera adapter and hard wire it to the Sonica usb port while I digest some of these ideas. My family uses the system as well ... | |
| Adding streaming services to a streamer via usb Looks like I'm going to try the hardwired route and see what happens. I might throw Volumio on a usb drive and see what happens but it appears Volumio might actually need to be tied to a cpu. I thought I read somewhere a while back about a thi... | |
| New streamer I just tried a few streamers because my setup changed due to one of my kids taking part of my system to college. A lumin U1 mini w/sbooster into a Ps Audio strata as preamp feeding meridian g57 amp & ProAc 3.8’s sounded amazing- detail, ton... | |
| Thinking of upgrading speakers from ProAc 3.8 I have enjoyed in my system for 23 years. The PS Audio speakers are getting excellent reviews and I believe they have a 30 day in home trial period. They use a high-quality ribbon type tweeter as well. They also recently had a sale on them that may/may not still be going on. | |
| Thinking of upgrading speakers from ProAc 3.8 I have enjoyed in my system for 23 years. I have a pair of 3.8’s that I like a lot. I have heard the TAD ME1’s several times at Axpona and have thought they would be a worthy upgrade with a nice sub. |
