@kdude66 Kenny, I was interested in the reworking of your DI's.  In particular how you changed your woofers from the alphas to the betas.  On paper these are two different drivers.  I could see how the betas with their larger magnets might offer s...

beernut,Owned the marantz 8005 and was very favorably impressed.  It drove my magnepan 1.7's beautifully.  (I liked the sound better than a well known $3000 hybrid power amp that is well regarded by many)  I was so impressed I sent stuck with the ...

Yes, mofojo, Eric was quite open about the brand of caps and coils your $300 got you.  So not quite sure where audioman is getting the impression this is all guarded information.Teajay, I also noted my original review that the DI's do a very nice ...

Kenny,Glad you like it.  This work is a sentimental favorite of mine that takes me back 30 some years ago to my undergrad days at Michigan.  Seems like yesterday I was peering out the window of the undergrad library listening to that piece on a  s...

Deadfan 23,I agree that the DI's would be plenty of speaker for your room.  Now as to which one would please you best--tough call.You might be very wise to await Terry London's review of the Ulfbrecht if that is in your budget. Will it sound 4x as...

Good to hear some feedback on C-core  transformers.  When I went to the Audio Note Kit site, their 34 C-core mono blocks looked interesting along with I believe their L4 preamp which used a triple c-core on its output.  Not sure how important thos...
