| What is your favorite Mod for the EAR 834P Yes. So far you have been applying effective tweaks. The full capacitor and resistors mods will greatly improve the 834P. I will second Mitch, but I've heard of good results from Great Northern Sound and others. | |
| K&K any comments? Hi Raul. Where have you been lately? Phil, and others, I did not mean to discourage input. I was under the impression that Padrillo had already made his decision and just wanted to support him a bit. I completely agree with comments about system s... | |
| K&K any comments? Phil, I think he already decided on the K&K so why rain on the parade? And you want to compare units that retail at 3 and 4 times the price? | |
| K&K any comments? I,m betting that the K&K will keep you happy for a long time. If you do get the urge to swap it out, make sure to take the effort to listen to whatever you may have your eye side by side with the K&K before you decide.Best and enjoy,Dan | |
| BIX TT Won't Hold Speed - Bearing Lube? I agree, ATF does work well. I think you might want to avoid any that contain certain additives, like teflon, etc, but I'm not sure. Maybe try a search on this over at AA. | |
| What will beat ear 834p by a margin My comments on battery powered stages has nothing to do with any reviewer's comments. I don't read any audio magazines. My opinion, and again I may be wrong, is my own. I am an electrical engineer, not that it makes me an expert or anything. There... | |
| Who is Nick Doshi? Patience, Realrookie. It just might work out. Are you anywhere near Surf City? I could be persuaded to carry mine (once they're delivered) over to the left coast. But it would be coming home with me. :) | |
| What will beat ear 834p by a margin I've owned the fully modified (Mitch) 834P and Rhea. I did not think the Rhea was noisier than the 834P. In comparison, the 834P isn't really all that quiet. The Rhea was more dynamic across the frequency range. Much more bass extension. However, ... | |
| Who is Nick Doshi? :) Nick, if he can get as far as Doug's I'll gladly drive down and meet him half way. I'm assuming Larry would be coming from NYC or NJ. | |
| Who is Nick Doshi? Found it! (I really should Google more often.) Ann Arbor, Mich. Just a little out of my way. | |
| Who is Nick Doshi? BTW, where is Paragon Sight and Sound? Someday I might want to drop in an meet the new Grand Poobah of the Doshi sect. | |
| BIX TT Won't Hold Speed - Bearing Lube? I have to admit upfront that I'm ignorant as to what type of bearing the BIX uses. What you describe kind of sounds like temp related issues, but I have a hard time believing that a few degrees difference inside your house between winter and summe... | |
| Who is Nick Doshi? I'm really pissed about this! All of those gold fish I had to swallow live, crawling through the hot, glowing coals, the hours spend memorizing the Alaap plebs credo. And that secret handshake gave me carpal tunnel!Now I can't even look forward to... | |
| Teres, Galibier and Redpoint H John,I do realize that sometimes what we post and how we post can impact someone's business. When ever I post an opinion on a component I do try to think things through so that I don't post something that would be seen as a condemnation. It is v... | |
| Teres, Galibier and Redpoint Hi John,I tried to give my "report" based on my impressions after a very long day topped with another 5 hours in the evening. I tried to listen passed both unfamiliar systems (BTW, that was my most extensive session with horns) and just tune into ... |
