A DAC to help overcome compressed music?
Hello deadheadI don't want to disappoint, but how great it would be to have at least some control over these recordings. When I was a musician, and even now when I need a bit of EQ I always lower the frequencies that do not need change, so the fre... 
interconnects vs speaker cables vs power cords - which make the biggest difference?
I’ll revive a pretty important topic for us and for those we try to help.I say get everything with your power done right, including very stable grounding. Then, Ii you don’t think power cables are the right ’first upgrade’ to buy then, wait, and b... 
SET 45 and their (real) required speaker efficiency
Hey,In looking around, I keep checking out Decewares' site to compare how their rated efficient speakers stand next to others. I've been looking at a lot of Lowther cabs. I guess at this point I should move this over to the speaker section, but si... 
SET 45 and their (real) required speaker efficiency
I know how you feel about wanting to see gear go to a good home. I’ve had a couple of limited production amps that I purchased for the investment. Wow, and did I ever get a great trade with one of them. I’m still shaking my head. But, I did start ...

Thanks jmolsberg. Another declaration of confidence in my amp of choice and current speakers.  
SET 45 and their (real) required speaker efficiency
Hello ricwa,such great news thanks man. I think i'll call Louis for sure on Monday to try and get his honest opinion on the amp I'm looking at, and what he thinks. I just realized the new Super Alnico tower is 97db. Looks like two exact drivers w/... 
SET 45 and their (real) required speaker efficiency
Thanks for that extra bit isochronism, gives a bit more to check out. It's starting to look like I'm going to find the speaker before I order the 45. I do have a 2a3 shipping any day now, so that will help with the speaker choice. As it's not quit... 
SET 45 and their (real) required speaker efficiency
Yep, I've considered those just for the size aspect. I don't want crossovers, but hey, at 100db, with the bonus of that size for my room. All win win. I did run across a thread where the original Heresy is around 96db. Do you have the original, ...

SET 45 and their (real) required speaker efficiency
Hello Isochronism,Thanks for that. I had not idea a single driver could get there. Curious, after having made a great gold find, have you done any post research to see if there are any other Lowther, or perhaps Fostex, drivers/cab pairing that giv... 
SET 45 and their (real) required speaker efficiency
Thanks David, I literally just finished re-reading segments of an 'article'(?) I had intended to include in my question that relates to your statement. You are most indeed correct, Classical/Contemp. Classical can run the full gamut of dynamics. B... 
KLE RCA plugs are the real deal!!
I hope to have more time to read the entire thread as I like these connectors a lot. I got as far as people finding the thin silver flaking off, and a few other issues. Why would you not tin this MINUTE piece of metal prior to soldering your wire ...
