Ringing Sound In Tube Gear
;) hey if it stopped...great! If you like your tube dampers...you may wish to try EAT tube dampers at some point. 19 bucks each and they are stunningly good. I got one on the recommendation of the distributor. I now have them on my other tubes as ... 
What are your general thoughts of B&W speakers
1. Everyone's got an opinion. Yours is the one that matters most. Now that this caveat is out of the way...2. If you've heard 804s and are still asking about 800 Diamond line, you've probably already decided you liked what you heard...good start.3... 
REL G2 or JL Audio F112 ..thoughts for 2 channel
I have heard good things about REL-SF as well. Personally, i used the Velodyne DD-18 with SF to very good effect. Specs of sub are important...but i personally am not that patient nor that experienced at setup...and thus the Velodyne's extremely f... 
Ultra High Definition 32-Bit Master?
I have heard FIM 32-bit Remasters and own a few. They are excellent...personaly, i focus much less on the technology...and instead try to understand whether the people doing the remastering job are well respected in their field. I always pay atten...

Meridian 808.2i second hand...all-in-one and upgradeable to 808.3i someday if you wish. 808.i (original) is even less second hand. real world-class stuff at attractive price given the functionality. Listed here. http://app.audiogon.com/listings/me...

Gryphon Colosseum vs. Karan M2000 monoblocks
Hi Sidekick - nice system as i have noted before. However, what is Goldnote? Will be curious to know if you prefer AA La Fontaine with Callisto or without. As good as the La F is by all accounts...that Callisto is quite a special piece from what i... 
Ringing Sound In Tube Gear
Hah! Good luck Tarraga...hopefully the knowledge experience and good will...will prevail and your ring will be sorted out. Good luck...and remember - sometimes when you tap on output tubes...be careful. If the tube is causing a problem even the ge... 
Ringing Sound In Tube Gear
hmmm...take them out, tap them gently on top and replace them back in the socket? i do get occassional ringing (faint), and Brent Jessee has recommended this easy first step. It has worked for me in the past. 
SS amps as good as the classic ARC 100.2?
I cannot speak to long-term reliability but if you are looking for well-reviewed SS Class A without the enormous price tag, you might try Clayton Audio. Or you could go for the older Forte 4 amps...you could buy 2 for 1500 or perhaps less...and mo... 
Ringing Sound In Tube Gear
Does it increase in volume when you turn it up? In my limited experience with tubes, it is always a good start to replace the tubes and see if the problem goes away. A lot of ringing/buzzing/soft intermittent pops/crackles are tube related as the ... 
Worlds best DAC
Thanks! good luck with the move...will try to do some homework if nothing else to read about what makes it so great. 
Cable For Esoteric UX-3 Universal Player
You may wish to try a second-hand pair of Acrolink...which i believe is Esoterics own cables. If you are looking for 'sparkle' without losing the bass...perhaps Cardas Neutral? You may also wish to try Sablon Audio...no affiliation...but Mark Cole...
