| No sound from left channel on power amp I do not own that amp but my suggestion is to look at your fuses,almost all of my amp problems were due to a bad or blown fuse some uses a resistor.maybe very minor,check the left channel fuses/resistor.hope that is all,good luck.Thierry. | |
| Anyone own a Red Rose Preamp? Just a quick note,I also own an audioprism mantissa and I am almost positive that the silver signature while much costlier did not come with the upgraded power supply(for the cost of the silver mantissa you would think it would have).the upgraded ... | |

| Tube DAC or new CD player? quick response,I use a roksan caspian cdp very nice but quite too smooth for my taste and wanted more liveliness out of the music minus any edginess/brightness which the roksan does not have anyway.The result is quite wonderful and that is with ju... | |
| Will I be a jaw dropping Wow for an upgraded CDP? If compatible why not try a $200 cal sigma tube dac? I am using one along with a roksan caspian cdp and it does wonders even with this too smooth "high end CDP".Aloha! | |
