| Trade- off, power SS vs tube magic. The one quality I consistently prefer in tubes over SS is in creating the perception of dimensionality, or body. | |
| MUSE Erato II - Anyone using this player? My SS Clayton monos are also amps that transcend the old SS vs. tubes debate. You know you are not listening to tubes, but you focus more on their strengths than on what you are giving up by not having tubes. They do not have quite the (larger tha... | |
| Trade- off, power SS vs tube magic. One observation...if you keep the speakers out of it, both SS and tubed amps begin to sound remarkably....alike :?)Seriously, you just gotta listen to a lot of gear then buy what you like. Both tubed amps and SS amps can sound good but they tend t... | |

| MUSE Erato II - Anyone using this player? Not sure what I am going to do with the preamp. I just had it upgraded, it sounds good, and I really wanted to like it better than my Lamm LL2 Deluxe, but after recently reinstalling the Lamm, I believe the MUSE is just not as good sonically. Mayb... | |
| MUSE Erato II - Anyone using this player? So you have the newer style faceplate shown when you select the "products" tab on their website? That is the only picture of the faceplate I can find, since they had not yet updated it at the time of the pictures in the HiFi+ review. Unfortunately... | |
| MUSE Erato II - Anyone using this player? Finally, someone who has heard (owns) this player. Thanks for responding! You must have the attenuator module if you are running direct. I would be using it into a preamp. Three questions I have for you are whether the player is good at conveying ... | |
| MUSE Erato II - Anyone using this player? Mds, thanks for looking and posting here.I have also seen those reviews. The designer told me the Model Ten (which I owned) would be superior to the Eleven (for redbook CD playback). The designer also considers the Erato II superior to the Polyhym... | |
| Imaging and Detail. My favorite system for 70's rock is the stock system in my Ford Explorer....with the windows down....to quote Ziggy Stardust, "TO BE PLAYED AT MAXIMUM VOLUME" | |
| Herron VTSP-3A Since the Lamm is off topic, and I don't want to hijack the Herron thread, I will send you an e-mail. | |
| Herron VTSP-3A No, Lewinski, unfortunately I have not yet tried the Herron and I am currently running a MUSE Model Three Signature preamp with outboard display/power supply into my balanced Clayton M300 amps. Although nowhere near as expensive as some preamps I ... | |
| MUSE Erato II - Anyone using this player? Good one Chayro. | |
| MUSE Erato II - Anyone using this player? Amazing, that not a single person that posts on this forum or on Audio Asylum has heard a player that Roy Gregory of HiFi+ calls,"a performance marker against which other products should be compared, a benchmark in the truest sense of the word." | |
| CDP choices-Looking for advice If you can stretch your budget just a little, I would upgrade the CDP 0.6 recommended by Drrsutliff above to the Lector CDP 7TL. Even the first generation 7TL machine is likely to be an improvement over the 0.6 due to the outboard and beefier powe... | |
