@donsachs - I must say I applaud your efforts here and what you're doing for this client who's received a 3rd party piece. I have often extended that same courtesy, simply for the cost of parts. I love hearing about excellent service! Best regards, Aric
yet another tube preamp recommendation thread
hello, currently looking for tube preamp linestage upgrade recommentations.
recently tried an older cary audio slp98p f1 edition with new tubes. i do not need phono capability.
the cary had a lot going for it, an incredible midrange, very good bass and transparency, it just sounded unrefined and ragged in the treble on occasion, possibly due to the new tubes.
a new Slp 98 l with upgrades is a considetation.
also considering primaluna evo 300 or 400
and rogue audio rp7.
i value transparency, refinement and dynamics the most.
thanks.

I did not realize my Studebaker comment would ruffle such feathers. Studebaker was an automobile company which offered a model named Avanti. After looking it up just now, the model was marketed by them 1962 - 1963. (a Canadian co. took over that model for a couple more years) I was off by two years. I only intended an inside acknowledgment to the OP. My Dad had a 1956 Commander, which he taught me to drive in 1965 at the age of seven. (3 on the tree) just a little nostalgia, guys. Sheeze... |
Studebaker made some excellent cars which are real eye candy, and they have quite a following in the vintage car world. The Avanti is superlative and the Hawk are some pretty classy rides- I'd love to get my hands on one of either!! The Avanti was the fastest production car made in its day. Its impossible for me to see how that one word comment could be construed as some sort of insult. https://www.google.com/search?channel=fs&client=ubuntu&q=studebaker+hawk |
