Thermal Distortion your loudspeaker most likely suffers from it. But do you care? I think this heat issue may effect high frequencies most. And it may be that the AG sold, “Deulund-Mundorf Ultra Speaker Purifiers” could be the solution to the heat issue. After 100++ hours of breakin they have had a profound effect on the sound... | |
Power Cables and Wall Sockets @ghdprentice Hearing your system was spectacular! Thank you. Even though hard to quantify, I believe a major difference between your system and mine was how “present” yours was. I attributed this to your dedicated AC lines. Inspired, I have se... | |
High Fidelity Cable replaces NPS 1260 I was concerned until I texted Rick and was answered right away. Have no doubt that I will receive my Q45T this week. Sent a screen shot of my PayPal invoice and he responded “Perfect, will ship in 1-2 days.”. | |
High Fidelity Cable replaces NPS 1260 I expect to receive my NPS Q45T this coming week. Communications have been good and normal. Have been quite anxious to try the Q45T since the results with just my fuses and phono cable treated with the original NPS 1260 has been nothing short of... | |
Low Level Listening and Distortion I had JBL Century 100 s. Looks like many also had them in the early ‘70s. Miss those college days and cranking the JBLs! | |
Low Level Listening and Distortion Just now, listening average mid 60s db. Normally mid to high 70s. Quite engaging making it difficult to write this post. Imaging and soundstage are right on. And, in a way, drawing me into the music more than louder. Class D GANfet AGD Audions. ... | |
American Made Audio Products I was under the impression that Boarder Patrol were made in GB. Think you can add AGD Production. Maybe companies which rebuild Quads and Idler drive TT like Woodsong Audio? | |
American Made Audio Products However, I believe you have listed companies that are actually distributors or importers. Boarder Patrol for example. | |
American Made Audio Products A very incomplete list. And many selling product built abroad. | |
Limited soundstage between speakers The Zobel networks are the simple and super effective fix. I could have never imagined. But now every record is a concert with the musicians standing realistically across a vivid soundstage. On AG they are called Deulund-Mundorf Ultra Speaker Puri... | |
Looking for warm tube preamp (should pair well with Pass power amp), budget $6000 If you are interested in playing vinyl, Atma-Sphere MP-3 is best in your price. Not exactly warm but accurate is more desirable. True balanced means pricey IC are not needed. I use $50 Mogami. The built in phono stage is as good or better than a... | |
Speakers: Anything really new under the sun? Line arrays have appeared several times over the years and most have been very interesting and very good. Pipedreams come to mind. But the latest and most interesting are Arions. I have a Mundorf AMT in my Tetra 606s. Dipole, they produce open an... | |
Tweaks, money pit or real value? If we talk about cables and another tweak turned on to through the Forum, Silversmith Fidelium speaker cables! They replaced $6K cables which are now relatively junk. It has been said by a reviewer or two that they can go against the $30K stuff. ... | |
What stereo equipment do respected musicians listen to? Herbie has Tetra 606 in his studio and Tetra 120Us in his home theater. Ron has Tetra 606 in his living room. And Keith goes on tour with a pair of Tetra 406s. | |
Limited soundstage between speakers I had serious issues with my soundstage and imaging. But it appears to be caused by hash or noise in my high treble. These issues were solved by the addition of what are known as Zobel networks plugged into the binding posts of my speakers. In m... |
