| Best Solid State for Avalon Isis Cpcorreia,FWIW, I have been speaking with someone else with SF Strads (4ohms but 2.7ohms across fairly wide amount of the bandwidth)...and he thinks he may need to go up in power from Soulution 710 to Goldmund Telos 600 monos. I think AValon Isis ... | |
| conrad johnson GAT vs ACT 2 series 2 thanks! | |
| Gryphon Diablo & Dartzeel CTH-8550 Did you like what you heard? | |
| Audible low level humm from Vincent st-70 Good luck...sounds like you have got 'at least half' the problem solved...and if it really is tubes, then you've got the problem entirely solved! | |
| Tube Dac to Tube pre? Hi Steve,From your description, yes, it should be do-able. Your DAC should have analog outputs...RCA, XLR or both. Either of these could go directly into your preamp analog inputs. Just remember to check what analog outputs your DAC has...and what... | |
| Review: Nordost QX4 AC filter Hi Boeing,I run the QX4 from wall into the power conditioner, and also place the QX4 on top of the power conditioner (Transp Ref Isolation). I admit...i did not experiment a lot...i liked what i heard and left it, based on recommendation from manu... | |
| conrad johnson GAT vs ACT 2 series 2 Thanks Onemug...good to know and will keep that in mind if i ever get to hear ARTs. Rlw3 - what other CD players have you heard besides the Simaudio Supernova? Was interested in how they compare against others. have read good things about it. have... | |
| conrad johnson GAT vs ACT 2 series 2 Thanks, Onemug. Ditto. FWIW, I know the GHs well...and i tell you, those are one seriously memorable speaker. My favorite of all the SF speakers i have heard/owned. (i have not heard Aidas or the Sonus Faber/Fenice)...but i have heard nearly all o... | |
| conrad johnson GAT vs ACT 2 series 2 Hi OnemugLet us know if you hear it...i can see you are quite experienced with CJ! I have spoken with 3 people who know/liked/owned the ART 3, and all have moved across to the GAT. I know that does not mean you still wont be the 5% who prefers tha... | |
| Any used amp as good as denon pma 2000ae ? For 800 bucks second-hand, i would say my favorite 2 amps are Forte 4 (Class A Solid State...50 watts) and if you're lucky, you might get a CJ MV60SE (though i generally see them above 1000)...60 watts/channel but many have said and written it sou... | |
| Best amp for Avalon I have read in many places people love Pass Labs with AValons. People also really like CJ tubes with Avalon as i understand. Karan also comes to mind. Good luck! | |
| How much power is enough for B&W Nautilus 804's? i would go for 1 or 2. Personally, try 2 first...because my guess is that in the short run...properly set up you'll get loads of bass...and potentially in the long run, you'll change 804s for something (even if its 10 yrs from now)...but i would n... | |
| conrad johnson GAT vs ACT 2 series 2 Hi Ray,Check out the review from Jeff Dorgay, who apparently did not wish to upgrade to ART 3...but he did find the GAT more compelling as i understand, having spoken with him. GAT better than both it seems. (i have never heard the ART 3). I did n... | |
| Simple way to play hi-res files You could use your SACD player as a transport into a brad new DAC with all the flexibility you are looking for. and still go direct from your SACD player into your preamp.remember - you generally cannot get sacd into a digital stream...because it ... | |
| Amp/Preamp combo for Wilson Sophia 3's Hi Tpsully,If you are thinking Boulder 2000 series, you've got a load of options...which is great news. I believe Jfrech uses MXRs for his Maxx 3s. With my Wilson X1/Grand Slamms, i use CJ tubed pre into Gryphon pure Class A SS. (which is tonally ... |
