| upgrade from Devore Nines I forgot to add, that I do not find them to sound "thin" at all. They are also quite a bit more dynamic sounding! | |
| upgrade from Devore Nines ProfThe Super Nines (S9's) are a definite upgrade over the 0/93's, which are an upgrade over the Nines. I have owned all of them. The S9's are a big improvement over the 0/93's in every category...better extension, imaging, etc., yet still possess... | |
| Devore The Nines owners compare The Nines to The Super Nines or ....? I owned the Nines, then went for the 0/93's and I now own the Super Nines. Each was a definite upgrade over the Nines. | |
| Sugden IA-4 As a former 0/93 owner ( I moved up to the Super Nines), I would not consider the Pass XA25 due to its high damping factor. The 0/93 bass response in my opinion sounds "unnatural" with amps that have high damping factors. I auditioned am amp that ... | |
| upgrade from Devore Nines You are welcome! I heard the Perspective 2 Graphenes at an audio show and they sounded quite good...but at $15k, they are out of my price. | |
| Luxman Integrated - What do they sound like arturgorniak:I also have the Super Nines and I was wondering about the bass response using the Luxman 509x since it has a damping factor of 350? When I owned the Devore 0/93's I auditioned an amp that had a damping factor around 270 and I felt th... | |
| upgrade from Devore Nines I went from the 0/93's to the Super Nines (last March) and it was well worth the upgrade! The S9's are more extended in both frequency extremes and more dynamic. Imaging is better as well. For those contemplating getting new 0'93's, I say just mov... | |
| Tube life Likely gradual unless a tube starts going bad. You will know when that happens. Most hybrid amps have tubes in the input (which last a long time) and solid state outputs. Check out Brent Jesse or Upscale Audio for tube options. I would wait a whi... | |
| Has anyone tried these stunning new CPT power cord? I only have about 50 hours on my Deep Core and I am very impressed so far! The soundstage has grown quite a bit, depth wise and horizontally, while the bass response has also improved. My system is quieter and low leveling listening has become eve... | |
| Has anyone tried these stunning new CPT power cord? Kudos to Walter for shipping out the Deep Cores and the 1800's to make everyone whole. I don't think he was obligated (legally) to do this as he only purchased the Core Power assets and none of the liabilities. I wonder how many of the other poten... | |
| Has anyone tried these stunning new CPT power cord? Walter contacted me about Deep Core and said to expect it by mid-July. | |
| Has anyone tried these stunning new CPT power cord? Likewise...congrats Walter and best of luck to you in this new venture!Glenn | |

| Preview: CODA Technologies new generation number#8 Stereo Amplifier Sounds like a great amp! I haven't seen it yet on their website, but I am concerned by the low input impedances into the balanced inputs of their other amps. Some of them are only 1K ohms into a balanced input, but 50K into the RCA inputs. I don't... | |
| Tavish Design Adagio Owners Thanks Rob, I may have to give that a try.Glenn |
