| In search of low powered tube amp that isn’t overly hot Super helpful, Larryi. I have recently become aware of Charney Audio's Maestro speaker which also is best positioned in the corner (like Audio Notes) but are easier to drive. 101 db sensitivity, 8 ohm load. Might work better with the 45 amp, gi... | |
| In search of low powered tube amp that isn’t overly hot Great to hear about the Alan Eaton. That's one I have been reading about this weekend. Is this the monoblock? Or something else? Thank you. (And thanks all for the great ideas here.) | |

| speaker cable that would work under a rug Thanks, everyone. Great advice! | |
| In search of low powered tube amp that isn’t overly hot so much good advice. thank you all. (love the picture with reel to reel in the office!) On Dennis Had, where do I find those amps? I not finding a webpage for him. Is there a distributor? Thanks! | |
| Audio Note speakers thanks all for the really helpful advice! | |
| In search of low powered tube amp that isn’t overly hot great idea, Jim. Rogue Sphinx and LIO come to mind. What else is out there in this category? | |
| Audio Note speakers Thank you all for the great feedback. If I go with an Audio Note amplifier (was just listening to an interview with Peter Q yesterday and heard his whole philosophy) - how much heat do they produce? Are there models that won't make my 12 x 15 ro... | |
| speaker cable that would work under a rug PS - Another option would be to run cable up and over an archway, and not under the rug. This would be a very long run. Not sure which option is preferable in terms of sound quality? But maybe something like the Duelund cables from Parts Connec... | |
| settings on my Hegel cdp Hi- Thanks for the ideas. I am glad to know about Pasternack. (Current cable is Black Cat Cable--BNC on one end with RCA adapter on the end that connects to Bifrost DAC.) I checked coax settings etc on Bifrost. That doesn't seem to be it. ... | |

| vibration control - cd player Hi all- Thanks for all the good ideas and I'm happy to provide more details on my system. The cd player (Hegel Viking) is 16 pounds. It sits on a shelf in a built in wood cabinet (not audio equipment). The room is small -9 by 11- and there is ... | |
| help! no sound Hi all! Just an update as I just got a new pair of tubes. Put them in the Lyr 2 and there was sound. So it was the tubes! Phew. Thanks all for your advice and help. So appreciated! (She btw.) cheers, Margot | |
| help! no sound Hi all! Thanks for the help. I think I have done all of these things. Spoke to Schiit and they think the tubes may be bad. (Seems weird that would lead to NO SOUND rather than hissing) but I'll get some new tubes and see if that works. Thank ... | |
| help! no sound Hi. Thanks for your help. To be more clear- I run an RCA cable from a cd player to an amplifier that connects to my non-powered speakers; from that same cd player I run a bnc out to the Schitt bifrost. That is the then connected by RCA to the L... |
