| Looking for a crystal clear / dynamic tube preamp Supratek Syrah. Be sure to check whether it comes with a remote. Some do and some don't. It is certainly a contender at this price point (and beyond...)Good luck. | |
| David Elrod. the man , the cable the company. Yet another vote for both Don of DCCA and David Elrod. Both of these gentlemen have arranged lengthy auditions for me and kept in regular contact during the time I had their cables to answer questions and get my feedback. Not only are these guys t... | |
| About Lugnut -- Patrick Malone Warrenh, obviously you've never met my beagle, Cortez the Killer.I guess four syllables is a bit much. How about Cinnamon for short, then?Tobias, that Rilke poem is gorgeous. | |
| About Lugnut -- Patrick Malone In honor of Neil Young and Pat's fondness of him, how about "Cinnamon Girl"? | |

| Cardas vs Shunyata power cords question Sherod,If you think the Powerwave Extreme is good, you should try the Extreme Reference. I took delivery of the cord on Friday and was just astounded by the improvement it made in my system, even after settling in for only a few hours. Don says it... | |
| Your insight on a CDP purchase Congratulations on your new Modwright. Once you hear it, I doubt you'll worry anymore about the price of that Prima or how to respond to questions about your purchase.Happy listening! | |
| Your insight on a CDP purchase Agree completely with 1markr. I've had the Modwright 999es for about a month, and it is just stunning. SACD is certainly a nice bonus, and redbook play is tremendous. I saw Dolfan's ad, and agree that this is a no brainer. Jump on it and don't loo... | |

| Preamp w/ big sound AND extended frequencies ? Hi Opus88,While I do not have any experience with your Air Tights and do not doubt or question the findings of Noble111 (yes, I saw the other thread on the recessed soundstage concerns), I can tell you that my own experience with the Supratek is p... | |
| Any Bob fans out there? I love it, too. I've been raving about this album for weeks to friends who have pretty much given up on Bob since he broke up Sugar. I think this album is equal to anything Sugar produced, which is saying something, and nearly on par with the best... | |
| Electraglide Epiphany vs Kubala-Ssna vs.... Any updates on this shootout? What's the word, guys? | |
| Preamp w/ big sound AND extended frequencies ? I have had both the First Sound and the Supratek, and ended up keeping the Supratek. The First Sound IS a very dynamic, "big" sounding preamp with the blackest background I have ever heard with any tube equipment. It is a great choice. I went with... | |

| Anyone tried Oritek X-1 cables? I got a pair today, and even after a few hours, I am very pleased with what I am hearing. They must be "pre-cooked" or not require much break-in, because they are already incredibly good out of the box. I need a few more days with them to give a f... |
