| Which Cord Are U Using On Your Stealth? I'm currently using a Virtual Dynamics Nite SOL from the wall to the Stealth. I'm very happy with this setup. I'm also only using the Stealth for analog. I have my turntable, preamp and amp plugged into it. I currently am using a Tara Labs AD/6 fo... | |
| Problems with Cary 303-200 Take it back to the dealer and have it serviced. If it's increasing with frequency, the transport could be dying already. It shouldn't be after only 2 months, but stranger things have happened. You're not using one of those cd improvement discs th... | |
| Tube preamp with cinema bypass?? Audio Research LS-25 | |
| How to respond to those who say it's not a hobby? Must be newlyweds, eh? You are creating/building/assembling a system. Tell her buying clothes isn't a hobby either and go get yourself a cd player. Unless you're the unemployed student and she's the bread winner, then say yes ma'am and do as she s... | |
| CA-200 vs. ML 332 I agree with the first two responses. Keep your CA-200 and enjoy it. The ML is a very different animal. Different is not always better. You'll get more information, but it may not sound as musical, depending on your other components.Regards,John | |
| Best 5 ch. amp used - 2500-3500.00 price I'd go with either the Aragon 8008X5 or the Classe CAV-180. The Aragon slightly more dynamic, while the Classe is warmer. Both are excellent bang for the buck, IMHO. | |
| red light on classe 30 preamp? www.cservice@classeaudio.com .Armin Gschwendtner has always been very helpful in answering any technical questions. If it seems to work fine, I wouldn't be too concerned. Possibly the light may be faulty.Regards,John | |
| $3000 MF a3.2 seperates or Arye Integrated or ? I'd see if I could get a decent deal on a BAT VK-300x integrated. I've heard it and it's very impressive.Regards,John | |
| Best integrated for under $7000 BAT VK-300x with the 6H30 tube. | |
| Should I modify my Sony s9000es or get a DAC? In general, you will never get your money in return for mods. A typical 9000ES goes for around $700, put $1000 mod in one and you may get $1100, IMO. When I went from my VPI Jr turntable to my mk IV, I sold my Jr. and bought the mk IV. It's much c... | |
| Can anyone tell me about the Proceed PAV good /bad You may be best with the AI L1, it sounds like what you need and want. Have you tried placing a 'Want Ad' here at the 'Gon? I've found some very odd, rare pieces that way. You'd be surprised how many response you may get. Have you heard the AR? It... | |
| Unsettled and considering changing stuff It's the show. The purpose is to get your juices flowing and make you feel your system is inadequate. It looks like it was a successful show. Your system looks fine. I'm sure it sounds great too. Relax, take a few months, and then see if you still... | |
| Can anyone tell me about the Proceed PAV good /bad In that case, then by all means, your current preamp IS broken. You have to get a new one. | |
| Can anyone tell me about the Proceed PAV good /bad I'm not saying it isn't the preamp, it could be, but ground loops are tricky. For instance, I originally thought my preamp was the problem. I had a buzz coming through the speakers, when I unplugged the inputs to my amp, the buzz went away. I unpl... | |
| Can anyone tell me about the Proceed PAV good /bad When you disconnect which RCA's? I just went through a similar experience, the problem is a ground loop hum. I finally nailed it down. Originally I thought it was the preamp as well, but it turned out to be the incoming cable tv line. I put a MIT ... |
