| Sonny Rollins has passed One of the best….i could listen to him for hours on end. I agree with @earthbound on Colossus. I recently picked up the Go West 3 record vinyl box set from Contemporary Records. It includes the nicely mastered Way Out West album. Beautiful!! And ... | |
| Quicksilver MidMono Owners & Past Owners Thanks everyone for your responses. @hilde45 I didn’t know QAS existed so will I be scouring thru the posts for some useable info. @oddiofyl I have a feeling I’ll also end up back with the EL34s. Coincidentally I have a Tool Shed amp and preamp... | |

| Speakers for Small Room @jjjgasp, I have Volti Rivals in my big room. Love them but never tried them in my small room. I did go thru 4 sets of speakers trying to find the best fit for a smaller space. I ended up with a beautiful pair of Omega Super Alnico Monitors custom... | |
| To all Klipsch Heritage fans Yeah, that was a decision I needed to make @kennyc. I bought the Belles new in 1984 so they were like family to me. Very tough to part with them, but happy to have Rivals. | |
| To all Klipsch Heritage fans I owned Klipsch Belles for over 40 years. They're not made any more but they were the furniture grade version of the LaScala's back in the day, one step down from the Klipschorn. I still own 2 sets of Heresy's. I know from experience that Klips... | |
| Bluesound died - is Wiim a good alternative? The Teddy Pardo contact is Morrison Agen at Hardcore Hifi in Ft. Wayne. https://hardcore-hifi.com/ You can buy the Wiim and ship it to him to modify (which I did), or I think he can supply the modified Wiim/LPS combo. | |
| Bluesound died - is Wiim a good alternative? The Wiim Ultra does a nice job in my small room system. Its interface with Qubuz is straight forward. I employ the Teddy Pardo LPS. The Wiim feeds a Denafrips Iris DDS via USB connected to a Denafrips Pontus 15th DAC via i2s. Total investment ... | |
| Inexpensive Streamer for Office System +1 Wiim Ultra but add a Teddy Pardo external LPS, all in for under $1K. That's all you need. | |

| Speaker for 300b amp? Btw, I also like Zu speakers and Ryan Casey @Marlin38. I had a pair of Dirty Weekends for 4 years during COVID and they really performed well with the Cary 300B. I always thought they punched way above there price level but unfortunately sold the... | |
| Speaker for 300b amp? You have some good recommendations above. I have two 300B amps, both running WE tubes, and have been playing around with speaker combinations with my Cary integrated amp for 15 years. I like horns but recently discovered Omega Audio speakers mad... | |
| Ozzie Ozbourne is Dead Crazy Train! RIP Ozzy! | |
| Modern EL34s VS NOS Winged C - and return policies? @trivema Thanks for your insight. | |
| Modern EL34s VS NOS Winged C - and return policies? Does anyone have an opinion on original Tesla EL34s (not JJ) and how they compare to the aforementioned SED Winged C? I've been running these in my QS MidMonos for several years and love the sound. The original set says 'Made in Czechoslovakia' ... |
