| Preamp Deal of the Century Asa, Thanks for your quick answer. - It's a big help. Any clues on the best place to hunt up a pair of NOS WE350B's, WE 300VB's or Tungsol Brown Base 5881's ? If you were going to pick one of the group to start with, which one would you pick ?I wa... | |
| Electrocompaniet EMC II CD Player Tvad, Subaruguru. My error, the Spider is a milled (not cast) Aluminum Alloy with a magnet in the center.I don't agree with the Tvad on the lack of substantial improvement produced by the Spider. I would love to hear anyone else weigh in with thei... | |
| Preamp Deal of the Century Has anyone rolled the regulator tubes (6L6EH's) that come with the Cortese ? I was told that rolling the 2 regulators does not make much (if any) difference in the sound of the Cortese. Has anyone had great success in changing out the stock 6L6EH'... | |
| Alana line stage by Gill Audio Design This fall, I replaced my Sim Audio Moon P-5 SS pre-amp with a Supratek Cortese and have been absolutely thrilled. I started rolling some of the tubes just this weekend and was amazed that a sound that had become so wonderful after the addition of ... | |
| Electrocompaniet EMC II CD Player Tvad, I checked my EMC-1UP to see if the spindle allowed any play on my unit after installing the Spider and in my case it is solid as a rock. The significant sonic improvements that I am experiencing and increase in emotional involvement are not ... | |
| Electrocompaniet EMC II CD Player Barrelchief, I would not miss out on either the 1-UP upgrade or the Spider. I did the 1-UP upgrade a year and a half ago and it was a solid improvement. The Spider was surprisingly good, but my system is tremendously more revealing now when I adde... | |
| Electrocompaniet EMC II CD Player Subaruguru, I did not include in my post that the Spider is milled steel (looks like it took some extra work to get it done and then some). It does look more significant than a $ 25.00 disc or something you could crank out at home. I also did not ... | |
| Electrocompaniet EMC II CD Player Subaruguru, I would start chasing a Spider now. I did not include in my post that the Spider is milled steel (looks like it took some extra work to get it done and then some). It is well beyond a $ 25.00 disc. I also did not stress that the music ... | |
| Electrocompaniet EMC II CD Player My spider arrived, I opened the box and my first reaction upon opening the Spider package was " I paid $ 350.00 for this" ? I installed the Spider tonight and was able to do a couple of hours of comparative listening. It was fairly simple to insta... | |
| Electrocompaniet EMC II CD Player The Spider is finally here in the States. I have one coming that's " in the mail ". I will post my reaction once I have it in place and have done some listening (probably within a week). You can get one now from Brian @ Artistic Audio (good guy). ... | |
| Kharma 3.1 vs. Quad 988 A bit off the track, but does anyone have any hands on comparison between the Sonus Faber Extrmas, Kharma 3.1s or 3.2s and or the Quad 988 ? How would you describe the differences in sound ? | |
| Elrod EPS-3 sign. VS NBS statement MK.3 ? Jfz - Thanks for your detailed response. All of my cords now have over 1,500 hours on them, but never the less, I will see about organizing a box to try get some additional time on my refrigerator and let you know if I can hear a difference. Thanks | |
| Elrod EPS-3 sign. VS NBS statement MK.3 ? Jfz I agree with the long break-ins on power cords from my experience, but have only done them with running them 24/7 on my system. I have seen improvements after 1,000 hours. What is the easiest way to hook up a PC to a refrigerator and or a lig... |
