| Audio Horizons vs. Modwright SWL 9.0 SE Signature I owned a 9.0SE for several months,great value at the price point.Can't comment on the tube rectifier version,as I didn't demo one.Having said that I'll go out on a limb and suggest it still won't hold its own against the AH.I'm fairly comfortable... | |
| what makes a tube sound the way it does? Tube amps are voltage driven which produce even harmonics,solid state is current driven which produces uneven harmonics.That pretty much sums it up,right. | |
| Audio Horizons TP 2.0 Preamplifier I agree with Joe's comments,the balanced option represent an audible improvement in the musical presentation.Also,the manual states that the XLR outputs provide superior performance to single ended connectors. | |
| Can tube amps give true high end bass? Have to disagree,yes solid state can provide that kick ass bass,but you gotta ask yourself is that what it's supposed to sound like.Suggest,if at all feasible, you do a shoot out between a top shelf tube and an solid state.If you enjoy music the w... | |
| Audio Horizons TP 2.0 Preamplifier Have to get my 2 cents in.I'm using Innersound EROS 3 Electrostats and the AH is an excellent match,the bass is tight and well defined.It should be a seamless integration with your Logans.I concur with others on the Siemens tube recommendation.Of ... | |
| Audio Horizons TP 2.0 Preamplifier Well it was an interesting social experiment and it confirms in my mind,that buyers are very much stuck on brand names.I had 8 hits,however,only 275 views.I recall when I posted my Calypso I had several hits but 485 views.As an aside,it appears th... | |
| Audio Horizons TP 2.0 Preamplifier Hey that's unfortunate,but your daughter is O.K. so that's a happy ending.After hearing the costs for medical I most definitely appreciate the free health care offered in Canada. | |
| Audio Horizons TP 2.0 Preamplifier No I'm only selling one.I purchased the second from a fellow audiophile who has since become a friend.My reasons are simply altruistic,as he doesn't reside in a border town and does not have a US mailing address.It's not that he disliked the Audio... | |
| Audio Horizons TP 2.0 Preamplifier Hey those audio points look cool,in fact the whole system is very impressive.Not only do we have similar tastes in equipment our media room is the same colour as yours. | |
| Audio Horizons TP 2.0 Preamplifier And mine are honey oak. | |
| Audio Horizons TP 2.0 Preamplifier Hi guys,just heard from Joseph,the Russian super tubes are not recommended for use in the TP 2.0 as it may cause over heating of the filament.Frank and Sherod,if we should ever meet the drinks are on me.As Forest Gump would say,life is like a box ... | |
| Audio Horizons TP 2.0 Preamplifier Thanx for your concern everyone,awaiting response from Joseph and company. | |
| Audio Horizons TP 2.0 Preamplifier It's show and tell.After several listening sessions,the most recent with a particularly fine bottle of Petite Syrah, I can,without doubt say that the quad of tubes I purchased from a fellow audiophile was the best I have heard in the AH.They are N... | |
| Audio Horizons TP 2.0 Preamplifier Sherod and others,I say 2 weeks because the tubes won't be in my hot little hands until next week.I will report my impressions and other particulars thereafter. | |
| Audio Horizons TP 2.0 Preamplifier I've purchased a quad of KR tubes.Outrageously expensive but I'm worth it.I'm informed they were extremely difficult to acquire and are the ultimate match for the AH.So,stay tuned and I will share my opinion with you guys sometime in the next coup... |
