Audio Horizons TP 2.0 Preamplifier

For me, a remote is a requirement since moving to a computer-driven delivery setup. The ability to pick and choose tracks, which almost always vary in recording level justify the remote. Much different than popping in one CD and listening end-to-end, in which the levels mostly remain constant. Just my take...

Grannyring,
If by tube dampers you mean flexible rings that can be rolled down over the tubes to quiet vibrations due to heat and signal then, yes, I do use them with both the preamplifier and the DAC. I was surprised to hear that the rings do improve the music slightly.
I use the Siemens ECC tubes provided by Joseph as an upgrade. I bought the rings that I am using on Audiogon. There may be more sophisticated materials available. I have not tried others.

Now that my TP 2.0nB is a permanent piece, I am wondering anybody have first hand comparison too Joseph's Dimension interconnect and Cardas Golden Reference. I have the Cardas and like it's signature sound, I need one more set of cables for my CD side, and I'm curious about Joseph's. I'm so pleased with his Preamp I'd be willing to try his cables!

Grannyring, check out Herbie's Audio Lab for tube damping rings, best stuff out there.

I also use his special footers under my components, including the preamp.

Herblin is a friendly, honest guy, his products *really work* and the prices are down to earth (like Joseph Chow)

Something barely heard of nowdays in audio land.

Yes, I have used Herbie's Audio rings/dampers before and was wondering if they worked well in the AH gear. Thanks for your comments as I may try some.

Thanks

Bill
