| Outlet shoot out Sean, i should have said "tire treads".....but you got the idea. ;^)Sol322, the problem is that you don't violate your local electrical codes by "direct to the wall" wireing. have a competent electrician do any high-voltage unless you happen to be... | |
| Outlet shoot out well, i have something really important to do (i just gotta go clean the rocks out of my tires RIGHT NOW) or i would go do an Outlet shootout.but somewhat seriously, i confess i just accepted the advice of Jennifer Crock and bought her (Jena Labs)... | |
| Is there an end.......ever? No.....there is never an end to the joy that fresh, new, music can bring. as much as i enjoy my system and it's performance i get the most satisfation from connecting with a new artist....when that happens i will search out other recordings by tha... | |
| Which comm. speaker mfgr. makes the best cabinet? the Kharma Exquisite must be one of the speakers with possibly the "best" cabinet. the cabinet is made from 1" slices of a resin composite, very inert and non-resonant, with irregular interior cut-outs in each slice, then bonded and glued together... | |
| edge vs boulder vs halcro adnan,i've listened to all three at various times but only the Halcro DM-58 in my room for a few days.....the Halcro (on my Watt/Puppy 6s) were the fastest, most detailed and transparent amps i have heard; amazing detail and extension.....very neu... | |
| Please help tube amp for panels and SS for woofer Tekunda, Jonathan is pulling your leg on the cable issue but is sincerely recommending the Wolcotts. if your preamp has 2 outputs and you still want to try bi-amping you actually only need to attenuate one side of the bi-amping (you would need to ... | |
| SACD player with Analog Volume Control. the passive Placette RVC (remote volume control) is the answer. either rca ($1000 list) or balanced ($1800 list), it will give you a state of the art vishay-resistor 128-step volume attenuator with remote control. you will not be limited to a part... | |
| Kharma Ceramic 1.0 speaker with Atma Sphere Amps ? Stealth, i love my Tenors with my Kharma Exquisites. i have listened to the Grand Ceramiques on the Lamm ML1s and they were very good, but short of the overall clarity, speed and extension of the Tenors.Charles von Oostrom, Mr. Kharma, uses Tenor ... | |
| best 50 watt tube amplifier? Mejames, as the Dunlavy's are not very OTL friendly, you will either need a "big" OTL, such as the Atmasphere MA2s or maybe the MA1s.....or....the Lamm ML1s. a friend tried the Tenors with the Dunlavys and was not satisfied with the dynamics (she ... | |
| best 50 watt tube amplifier? Mejames, if you identify the speakers you intend to use and size of your room the answers to this question might be more specific.OTOH if this is one of those "what is the BEST....." then my 2 cents would be the Tenor 75Wi is "the BEST 50 watt tub... | |
| Amp shootout.....Tenor 75wi verses Berning ZH270 i am really disappointed that my thread did not get to 100 posts in one week......come on guys.....where's the passion?i think we beat this issue into submission...... | |
| Amp shootout.....Tenor 75wi verses Berning ZH270 Oneproof, when i first demoed the Tenors i did it on the Wilson watt/puppy 6s. the WP6 is among the most brutal speakers for an OTL; difficult impedence curve (6 ohm -- 2.3 ohm), and best normally with monster amps. in fact, my long-time reference... | |
| Beyond SACD with Redbook: Price No Object Albert, thanks for the kind comments. you have set the standard around here for enlightened musical direction for as long as i've been participating on Audiogon and the feeling is mutual on my desire to listen to your system(s).the "less is more" ... | |
| Beyond SACD with Redbook: Price No Object i agree with Albert and some others that very good or great vinyl is quite a ways beyond the best digital avalible today......and that would be SACD.....not Redbook....and these formats are not really that close.i have not heard better Redbook tha... | |
| Amp shootout.....Tenor 75wi verses Berning ZH270 Allan, hopefully, you don't think i'm an audio snob....i certainly don't want to be. some comments in this thread mention that possibly Tenor owners are in another class or something like that.....i don't see it that way at all....just because you... |
