| Question: Pathos Classic integrated amp models Thanks, much appreciated! | |
| Power supply for Cambridge Audio Azur 651P phono ? I contacted Audio Advisor and was told they could not get more of them from the manufacturer...I doubt this is the truth. | |
| Marantz TT-15 turntable: Speed control compatible? Thank you for your suggestion. After a bit of research, there seems to be incompatibility issues concerning the diameter of the pulley (whether a table's belt must be left on the smaller or larger diameter 33 or 45 rpm) which may stress the speed ... | |
| Quick poll: Rega RP6 or Marantz TT-15 ? Marantz TT-15 in my system. Thank you for your input. A very nice table, arm and cartridge. I couldn't ask for more at the price. Lovely looks and sound, and surprisingly quiet too. A great package overall, no regrets, just music! | |
| Quick poll: Rega RP6 or Marantz TT-15 ? Ended-up getting the "Marantz Acrylic Spectacular"!Very, very nice. Sounds great so far, no issues.It occurred to me that I could make it a bit more of the eye candy it already is by using some inexpensive LED lighthing to shine through the light-... | |
| Pathos logos strong enough to drive winds? This thread was about power and getting the best out of the speakers. How about how the amp SOUNDS and how it can convey the soul of music? In my humble opinion, The Pathos Logos is above everything other amp mentionned here by far. Class A tube p... | |

| Octave vs Ayon integrateds I am a past owner of the Ayon Orion II. It is a beautifull-looking amp but ultimately not very well put together and the protective housing over the transformers are not solidly attached. I also went through 3 remotes - not a big great deal but th... | |
| Brand Longevity A large number of ''audiophiles'' are flavour-of-the-month, gotta-to-have-the-latest-toy types.The longevity of brands is a non-issue when you only keep the gear for a short time. | |
| Why does your turntable sound the way it does. After two glasses of wine, I find that my turntable and in fact my whole system to sound noticeably better ;) | |
| Simaudio Moon 600i vs Lsa statement Given the nature of this hobby, consider this:The Sim sells better.The LSA sounds better.Choose your poison wisely, depending on what is important to you! | |
| integrated amp suggestions solid state I would suggest a ''downgrade'' that would result in an ''upgrade''. Yamaha AS2000. Do an A/B with the Sim and believe...This amplifier is more refined with sonics, more complete, and not overpriced, even at full retail. | |
| What so special about Sonic Frontiers ? It is well-known that SF gear used very good parts quality and build was excellent. However, I personally had some issues with their Line 1 preamp and on one occasion, with a Power 2 amplifier.Overall though, there is much to like about SF gear, I... | |

| Tube biasing question please Thanks everyone. I have owned many tube amps in the past and used to biasing, but I've never actually questioned what was going on regarding tube usage.Does this mean that, for example, a tube that is set at 450mv and used frequently, supposing it... |
