| Music Reference RM-10mkiii Kit I wish some rich Silicon Valley audiophile would finance the continuation of these great products from the West Coast heritage of audio technology, I would love to see the Music Reference, Juicy Music, and Klyne (I know he's technically still in ... | |
| Music Reference RM-10mkiii Kit I am painstakingly trying to bring my Beveridge RM-1 back to life. Even though it is nearly 50 years old it is still an amazing preamp. I own an RM-3 active crossover as well. Two of them in fact. | |
| Music Reference RM-10mkiii Kit A lot of RM-200 MkII owners use them with Martin Logan speakers. They could power some Apogees as the amps power increases as the load decreases: 100 watts 8 ohms, 140 watts 4 ohms, 125 watts 2 ohms, and the amp is stable into 1 ohm loads. They sh... | |
| Music Reference RM-10mkiii Kit Depending on the design demping will vary with OTLs. I have owned both Atma-Sphere and Roger’s OTLs. Ralph Karsten uses very little to no feedback in his circuits and as such the damping is low. Atma-Sphere OTLs are also based on the Circlotron ar... | |
| Music Reference RM-10mkiii Kit The challenge one faces is manufacturing to scale. There is no shortage of interest in the MkIII, just not enough resources to make it work. When Roger conceived of this his goal was to find a way to make the RM-10 more affordable without sacrific... | |
| Music Reference RM-10mkiii Kit @enobenetto sorry but we never received your inquiry. We’ve sold a few of the kits and one of the builders has been taking his to some of the audio shows. The amp was in Las Vegas and Austin so far this year. Roger came up with the idea for the Mk... | |
| Need some help shipping speakers I recently shipped a pair of Quad ESL 57 speakers from NorCal to Chicago. The cost of crating/packing and shipping/insurance ranged from $1,500 to $2,000 and I checked several resources, including the one mentioned by @mofimadness. In the end a fr... | |
| Dipping my toes into EL84 tubes Even though we sell our own EL-84 kit amp, which we sometimes build for a customer at additional cost, I went ahead and ordered a Dynakit ST-35. Total cost will be just under $1000. Looks like a fun build as well. | |
| how to use Aurliac Altair G1 - no lightning DS App anymore Linn Kazoo is being retired I believe, it was recommended by Linn to download the Linn app which I did. I used the Linn app a few years ago and it worked fine with no gapless playback issues so I see no potential issues with it now. | |
| how to use Aurliac Altair G1 - no lightning DS App anymore @babyseaotter99 that is what I do too. As I mentioned JPlay works fine except I can't get it to play gapless with my G1 even thought I have it set to gapless for my device within the JPlay setting. You may or may not have the issue or need gapless... | |
| how to use Aurliac Altair G1 - no lightning DS App anymore While JPlay does work with my Auralic Aries G1 and I like the UI, gapless playback was not working. I enabled it on the app but for some reason with my G1 it still wouldn't work. So I went back to the Lightning app. | |
| how to use Aurliac Altair G1 - no lightning DS App anymore Download JPlay and give it a try. 14 day trial. I was using it with my Aries G1 for a bit. | |
| Spendor Classic 100 - An itch I want to scratch! I was a big Spendor fan back in the 90's when it was still owned by Spendor and Derek Hughes was still there. I still own a pair of Spendor 1/2e which I will never part with even though my reference speakers are Quad ESL 57. Recent Spendor designs... | |
| Apogee Scintilla’s: Buying advice and are they worth the hassle @rooze Having owned both ribbon planar and electrostatic speakers I can say they share a very similar sound. One may not be better than the other. It depends on the model of the speaker. Acoustat speakers can be very reliable, but you need to star... | |
| DDC Sound Improvements??? @mdalton I saw that thread but just scanned it. I will go back and take a closer look at it. I am inclined toward Volumio at the moment but, I have to say my previous experience with their app wasn't all that good. I use the Lightning app for the ... |
