| Those rare albums that are great on first listen. David Gray "White Ladder"...just perfect. | |
| New expensive power cord for amp and no change in sound? I'm going out on a limb and saying you didn't hear any difference because there WAS no difference! Sigh...so much money wasted on silly  aftermarket cords. | |
| Thoughts? - First Watt F8 / Vandersteen Treo's What you will not get with the F8 on that speaker is real dynamic swing. Yes, it might sound good tonally, but those speakers deserve more power. I base this opinion from someone going from a FirstWatt M2 (25W) to Quicksilver Mono 120s (120W) on 8... | |
| Tube vs Solid state for Preamp AI preamps (L3, M3) are capable of incredible bass performance...absolutely no need to jump to SS. I've owned an M3B for 7 years, btw. | |
| No discussion about the Synergistic Pink fuse? All part of their new diversity and inclusion plan...Pink is now no longer a marginalized fuse. | |
| Solar Eclipse Music "There Goes the Sun," the track overshadowed by the more popular "Here Comes the Sun." | |
| Overkill for small room I own the Contour 20i's and drive them in a small room with a 25W, Class A, First Watt M2...they sound GREAT. Plenty of dynamics, tight bass, and power at all volumes. These are not that hard to drive. And btw, my amp has a damping factor of 20...... | |
| power cord for pass 250.8 ...as the aftermarket cord manufacturers go laughing all the way to the bank. | |
| Stuff You Tried To Love Anyone who does not get "Kind of Blue" a) lacks a soul and b) does not deserve to even call themselves a music lover. Harsh but true! | |
| How does a preamp die from sitting unused for a few months? I agree probably lonliness as well. Years ago, I separated one monoblock from the other, and the left channel amp died within just a few months...the right channel has never been the same since 😢 | |
| NAD Monitor Series: opinions My primary preamp/tuner for 10 years was the Monitor 1600, which contains the preamp section from the 1300 and 7600. The 1300 is a superb sounding unit overall: neutral, dead quiet, flexible controls, and nonfatiguing. Just beware that these were ... | |
| Anyone have experience with using de-esser for sibilance in home audio system? Correct, the Lokius is not an EQ but rather a tone control and thus will not allow one to hone in on the offending frequency band precisely enough. | |
| Anyone have experience with using de-esser for sibilance in home audio system? I totally get where you are coming from, Stuartk. I have found that even though it is not the "purist" approach, the dBx 231S, 2-channel, stereo EQ unit does a great job at allowing me to reduce (not totally eliminate) sibilance in my hi-end syste... | |
| Eliminated my preamp with amazing results It's just a matter of time before one makes a mistake with the volume, which can take out $$$ tweeters/drivers...That's why I always prefer physical knobs. | |
| Purchase on Audiogon arrived not as described Can't wait to see who this loser seller is... what a sleezeball. |
