| Tube rolling advice-Manley Stingray-Help? Sorry to be slow, but my reason on Telefunken 12at7:The are full bodied, I haven't found any weaknesses in the bottom or top ends, they run virtually forever and really don't color the sound. The GE's really rock but aren't as musical. Mullards ma... | |
| Hanging Speakers from the Ceiling... Macrame??? I would be concerned about speaker movement.....A lot of bass may make them sway while giving no bass at all. Commercially, many clubs use "all thread" to hang speakers. This is a giant threaded pole about 3/8" in diameter that will mount to the c... | |
| Budget amps that can hold their own. See if you can find an Anthem 40watt/ch tube amp! | |
| Tube rolling advice-Manley Stingray-Help? My preferences for el84's are Mullard first, telefunken 7189 next(ggreat substitute with more dynamics)and last would be amperex bugle boys.Telefunken 12at7's are unbeatable. | |
| Hum or buzz through speakers I love the Golden Dragon 6922's. They are great for the money or for any value. I've been using GD 6922's for about 5 years now and love them. The 12ax7's are quite good also. Very reliable, clean and unbiased sound. | |
| I need a quiet tube amp I agree with Marakanetz. What are you doing making a 300b work so hard. You should be looking at something with more like 100 watts/channel. Much of your noise is from having the volume so high. I'll bet these amps are silent on a 94db speaker????... | |
| Best of both worlds?? Dreaming perhaps?? I second the anthem!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! | |
| Stepping up from Rega 25 - suggest used turntable? I don't know why, but used SOTA tables sell at huge discounts. These are awesome and for $500 to $1000 used, you can't beat it. | |
| i need a 3 channel amp for B&W's HTM1 & 805N's.... Many a/b amps operate in class A for the first 10 or 20 watts only. After that they are in class B only. (some verify this please). If you listen quietly, it may be noticable. The downside of pure class A amps is the heat and usually a lower outpu... | |
| Speaker selection for difficult room conditions Spend some the the $4k budget on room treatments! | |
| Best speaker for $1500???, Have Cary SLI-80 Coincident Speakers are extremely tube friendly (92 to 102db depending on the model). They don't miss a beat! | |
| Any Experience with Anthem Products? I love my AVM-2. If I had the $$$ I would upgrade to the 20 without auditioning anything else. For the money, nothing else competes. You can pick up a used avm-2 for under 1k, and probably 2k for an avm-20. Go for it, you won't be sorry.Also, I re... | |
| Tuff decision, need help 1-The golds shouldn't need a sub. If the bass is getting muddy, I would guess that the amp isn't up to the task or like stated above it could be speaker placement.2-By using the speaker level inputs to the sub and from the sub to the speakers shou... | |
| No sound from left channel on power amp Contact Aragon. The customer service is great. They sent me fuses for free a couple of years ago. | |
| A pre-amp with multiple simultaneous outputs. I would really suggest a pre-amp with multi-zone capabilities. If theater isn't involved, the adcom is a really inexpensive option. Be careful with home theater receivers with multi-zone outputs, many don't do everything you want. Niles makes a mu... |
