Tube dampeners on ARC gear ... FREE TWEAK

Allan ...

Naw ... It'll be the REF-6 if I do anything. I have to have that additional 15%. Its a curse, I know. 

Just a minute ago I as listening to the Dave Brubeck Quartet playing a live concert in Mexico City. It was like being there. I keep wondering how much more information can be gleaned from those record grooves and digital bits. More Herbie's tube dampeners will tell the story .,.. for awhile.   

By the way, Allan ... this is the Brubeck CD I referred to in the above post:

If you like Brubeck, Desmond and Morello ... buy this one.

Frank,

Have you ever connect your CD7 to the Ref75 directly?

Thanks for your recommendation above.  I do like traditional jazz but more into female jazz vocalist like Diana Krall, Lisa Lovbrand, Melody Gardot, Nora Jones, etc.

Allan

Nope, never tried that. 

I see you like the modern female jazz singers. I have all of Diana Krall's CD's. Most of my audiophile friends don't care for her, or her recordings. Too processed and too much digital reverb to suit their tastes. I like her though. I think she's a swinging piano player too.

I'm more into the more traditional jazz singers like Sarah Vaughn, Dinah Wasington, Jo Stafford and Billy Holiday. If you like great female jazz singers, you might want to explore these ladies. :-)

Thx Frank. I will explore them for sure:)
