| Anyone own one of these preamps ? I couldn't have said it better. Keith and Joan are wonderful folks. | |
| Anyone own one of these preamps ? I have a Herron Audio VTSP-360 Ref ESP. The most recent preamp I compared it with in my system was a NAD M66. In terms of user ergonomics, always somewhat a subjective thing, I found the Herron to be superior and much less idiosyncratic than the N... | |
| Need Ideas on speaker cables @tonyrox and @connollymj beat me to it -- take a look at WBC (World’s Best Cables) on Amazon. I bought a few of their low-capacitance phono interconnects as a reasonably price stop-gap and now months later they are still in the system with no desi... | |
| JBL K2 S9900 vs Klipsch Heritage Jubilee Horn Speakers. I have to agree with the original poster -- the Klipsch Heritage Jubilees are truly special speakers. I discovered an authorized dealer about an hour from where I live that had a pair on demo and arranged an appointment to listen. Even though I ha... | |

| Seeking to Upgrade Subwoofer from SVS SB2000 I am unaware of any other high-end brand of subwoofer at the budget you want to stay within that would compete with SVS. | |
| Seeking to Upgrade Subwoofer from SVS SB2000 Your idea of a pair of SB-4000 is a very good one. As an owner of six SB16Ultras (2 stacks of 3 each) I'd say if you can stretch your budget, the SB16Ultras would be an even better choice and they are on discount now too, since the release of SVS'... | |

Very enthusiastic about music and providing the most cost-effective solutions for audiophiles on a budget. H... | |
| 300B or 2a3 SET Class A for Heretic Model A? PS: @yaluaka -- Best posts I've read in years. What I want is My-fi, not some else's idea of hi-fi. Stev eZ | |
| 300B or 2a3 SET Class A for Heretic Model A? All good amplifier possibilities by the OP. I'd like to suggest another possibility that would let you have your cake and eat it too -- Why not consider building an Ele-kit TU-8900 from Victor Kung at VKmusic.ca? I have one and really love it wit... | |
| Herron HL-1 Preamplifier, Solid State; Herron still in business? Thoughts about sound? I’ve known Keith for years and owned several of his preamps and phono amps, though I haven’t had the pleasure of owning an HL-1. However, right at the time he was introducing it I caught up with Keith at CES when he still made the trips to the sho... | |

| help me identify this amplifier Zip ties were indeed available in the 80s. I used them in the Navy in the late 70s and early 80s. | |

| THE NEW DCS APEX DAC VS THE PREVIOUS ROSSINI Thanks for the time and effort taken to share your listening session. Of interest to me since I am considering having the Apex upgrade done to my Vivaldi and the system you listened to at the dealer is similar though not identical to my own (D’Ago... |
