| Step up transformer for Benz Ebony TR cartridge Mulveling,you were spot on correct. I received the Benz Micro Ebony TR cartridge yesterday and paired it with the Bob's SUT with a 40:1 gain capability. Its a magic combination; all the reviews are correct. very nice choice.thanks | |
| What speakers for horizontal tri-amp configuration Correction. PMC, ATC, & McIntosh. | |
| What speakers for horizontal tri-amp configuration Thanks. So far I have only seen PMC and ATC with this capability. | |
| McIntosh Vintage C22 Telefunken 12AX7 or ECC803's? Larryi, your right the 803S are bright. I am currently running 2 MC275's in a horizontal bi amp config with all Telefunken 801S, 802S and 803S NOS tubes. Adding 803S to the C22 pre-amp will be too much. I am going to experiment with a softer tube ... | |
| How good does a TT have to be for a good cartridge Mechans, I'm curious what decision you made after reading all the answers and the results? | |
| McIntosh Vintage C22 Telefunken 12AX7 or ECC803's? Mechans,I like the sound that the currently installed Telefunken 12AX7s provide, very lush and not analytical . I have just 2 objectives with considering the 803s; reduction of noise for phono and increased performance in clarity or sound stage if... | |
| McIntosh Vintage C22 Telefunken 12AX7 or ECC803's? Larryi,, yes I am referring to the NOS Telefunken 803s from the Ulm factory in West Germany. I agree with your assessment. I am considering the NOS 803s for the C22 but they maybe too bright. Hence why I was looking for opinions. Thanks for your p... | |
| Step up transformer for Benz Ebony TR cartridge Mulveling, Talked to a few experts, read several reviews and exchanged emails with Bob; I ordered 1 Cinemag 1131 today. Thanks for that reference.Also, what cables are you using from the TT to the SUT and from the SUT to the Pre-Amp? I am consider... | |
| Step up transformer for Benz Ebony TR cartridge Thanks for the detailed in put. Your response, which is much more detailed that I can be, is much appreciated and unfortunately what i expected. The dealer is still checking but I think if I want to hang with a Benz and keep my Lyra i will have to... | |
| Step up transformer for Benz Ebony TR cartridge I have a Lyra Erodion SUT and enjoy it. Any thoughts on its abilities to handle the TR? I would like to purchase the Benz Ebony TR and prefer to pair the Erodion with it.I see the Erodin specs 2 to 10 ohms spec. Is that a show stopper for the TR a... | |
| Best MC step up transformer I use a Lyra Erodin. Very transparent, does not color the sound and let's the cartridge do its thing. | |
| New AMG tt just arrived. Documentroom,That's for all the posts and a shame about the designer.How would you compare the AMG to the clearaudio wood innovation? | |
| B&W 800D or ATC 150 Passive thanks for the comments. I suspect you are correct that the active ATC's are better than the passives.I like the sonic flavor of "tubes" and the vintage MC275's/C22 with the right tubes hit the mark. I am running a pair of ATC passive 150's now; d... | |
| Usher CD 7 MkII I use one. It's ok not great. Uses Cirus logc for the DAC. For better sound Swap the fuse out with stronger higher quality and use external DAC. | |
| Victical bi-amp or mono block? I agree. Monoblocks would be much simpler but I hear from many (in person not on this web site) to set up a horizontal bi-amp with an active crossover for max sound quality. I may just have to set up both to experience the difference myself.thanks... |
