| Acoustic Zen Adagio vs Thiel 2.4 Thanks Cmalak. Question though - how far apart are your speakers from one another? I can do no better than 7 feet apart, which would leave less that 2 feet from the side walls (same distance as you from the back). From what I've read about the Thi... | |
| Recommended tube preamp with HT bypass? Looks like the c220 doesn't have an HT bypass, so I'm removing it from the list. Adding the Supratek Cortese for now. That leaves me with the following:Conrad Johnson Premier 17ls Primaluna Dialogue 3 Mac c2200VAC Standard LE Cary SLP-03VTL 2.5Car... | |
| At what distance are balanced XLR cables needed? Thanks Kal. When discussing the output current, I'm assuming you meant my HT's output. If my apartment is relatively noise free, any concerns with running about 20 feet unbalanced given the d2v's impedance? | |
| At what distance are balanced XLR cables needed? Hope this helps:My HT processor is an Anthem D2V. According to its specs, its input impedance is 20 kΩ, and its output impedance for "main" is 300Ω (RCA), 600 Ω (XLR), and for "zone 2" is 51Ω.Impossible for me to determine EMI, but I plan on movin... | |

| Recommended tube preamp with HT bypass? Thanks Ait. To be honest, I never heard of Supratek before. Did a little search - they seem highly regarded. Am I right that they went out of business in 2007? | |
| Recommended tube preamp with HT bypass? I'd like it to be a little on the warm side, but I don't want to stray too far from neutral. That's the main reason I'm aiming for a tube preamp to match with my SS amp.The Cary SLP-05 is an amazing piece. It's just more than I'd like to spend, ev... | |
| Recommended tube preamp with HT bypass? Thanks for all your responses. I think I'm taking the Aesthetix off the list after reading a few negative things about it (including reliability). I'm taking the Conrad Johnson PV-15 off as well as I think the premier 17LS is a better alternative.... |
