| Life after DarTZeel were i to venture from darTZeel it would be toward SET tubes of some sortE, my point here was that if i were to venture away from musical neutrality into an amplifier with a sonic signature it would be toward the 'beauty' end of the spectrom. i dr... | |
| Life after DarTZeel Mtdking, i owned the Levinson 33H's for 2 years (1997-1999). a really fine amplifier.....i replaced them with the big Levinson 33's. the 33H is still one of the more 'listenable' solid state amps out there. i know that it has been somewhat updated... | |
| Life after DarTZeel interesting.Levinson 33H, Boulder 1060 and Bryston 28B preferred to darTZeel.there are many paths and viewpoints to musical nirvana.....and there is no 'wrong' only different. my comment has no hidden inference.personally; were i to venture from d... | |
| Air Tight Supreme compared to PC-1 to add my 2 cents to Lew's perspective; i would put more stock in Albert's perspective on the degree of improvement with the Supreme than Valin's. OTOH 8 years ago i purchased my Kharma Exquisite Reference 1D speakers sight unseen almost 100% due ... | |
| Air Tight Supreme compared to PC-1 all he has is that Pizza under a bridge by his old school :^)......and the blond waitress at the Pizza place.....Albert, last time i was at the Northlake 'that' blond was asking about you. my wife wondered just what you did to make such an impress... | |
| Air Tight Supreme compared to PC-1 rather than me relating hearsay to you.....i recommend you read Albert Porter's 'System' thread, his Technics SP-10 Mk3 thread, or e-mail him about this question. he has owned a couple of PC-1's and now owns the Supreme....he has had the PC-1's on... | |
| Al Stiefel of RMAF Has Passed Away Wow. This is very sad and a real loss. My thoughts and prayers are with Al's wife and family.I met Al prior to the first RMAF and and then saw him at all the RMAF's. He was always a gentleman and i really appreciated his efforts on behalf of the a... | |
| Dartzeel 108 amp driving Wilson Watt/Puppy 8 i agree with Cincy bob that the darTZeel will be happy on the WP8. i have heard a number of different speakers with the darTZeel and the dart has always had that 'live-ness' and 'musicality'. what the dart excells at will come thru; which is to so... | |
| Dartzeel 108 hi Rodrigo,i've not tried the darTZeel NHB-108NS/JM Labs Micro Utopia Be combo; however i have listened to the dart with a number of speaker systems and have listened to the Micro Utopia Be a number of times and i do have an opinion on how the com... | |
| Can we go back to 33's please? Agree totally with Rushton on the RCA Classic 45's; i have them all and play them frequently. i also have some of the RCA originals and the 45's are a whole new level of musical energy and information.A few of them are slightly 'hot' on top for my... | |
| VTA on a Triplanar one of the great design features of the Triplaner is that VTA can be set dynamically (as you are listening), it is easy to change, and the changes are repeatable (there is a scale).you need a reference LP which has a track with space and clarity. ... | |
| Tweaks when building a listening room? lots of good advice and ideas.i would recommend getting some professional advice on the effect of the shape of your ceiling on the sound. not all 'cathedral ceilings' are the same.....the solidity of the structure and the surface materials will ha... | |
| Celebrity Audiophiles? Do you guys know of any? Randy Johnson (argueably the best southpaw of the the last 30 years) is an audiophile. back in 1997 when i traded in my Wilson WP 3/2's for 5.1's; he purchased them for his home in Arizona. i met him at the local dealer here when he picked the WP'... | |
| Best Turntable/arm/cartridge system for $30k Arwp,your question has hit a nerve here for sure; what an exciting concept to be able to spend $30k for a first step into vinyl playback. it sounds like the investment in Lp software has also been considered.i own three tt's; one way over $30k and... | |
