| Really...My favorite power tube is reissue that's not widely popular Op, Agreed. I ran some current production “Tung Sol” el34s and for my tastes nothing else came close. I was initially turned off at the exploitation of the name but the tubes/their quality do the name some justice. re. 6922s Although there may... | |

| Which ARC ref linestage to try: Ref3, Ref5, Ref5SE? HATE forward sounding systems @bobbydd FWIW I knew exactly what you meant. Definitely appreciate your thoughts. | |
| Which ARC ref linestage to try: Ref3, Ref5, Ref5SE? HATE forward sounding systems I want to thank everyone. This was a very productive thread for me (and others, I hope) even though… …since I have so much PS Audio Equipment, It probably makes sense that I should try the PSA BHK before I go down the ARC road. However, with this... | |
| Which ARC ref linestage to try: Ref3, Ref5, Ref5SE? HATE forward sounding systems @jafant you have me thinking… I heard about the huge soundstage, which I love…but, how does it treat poorly recorded music in your experience? Is the soundstage at all forwardish? Does it truly have to be run balanced to sing? (Everyone: for... | |
| Which ARC ref linestage to try: Ref3, Ref5, Ref5SE? HATE forward sounding systems @jafant good observation… I probably will end up trying one of those as I’m a HUGE ps audio fan. I have the stellar phono and their DAC, which I love. Yeah…that’s probably the most logical. I’ve read that it’s no slouch. Just possibly wanted to gi... | |

| Which ARC ref linestage to try: Ref3, Ref5, Ref5SE? HATE forward sounding systems @nmolnar I was thinking of including the LSs in my query…absolutely should. Was there anything that stood out with the ls28/se or 27(se) etc. versus others you’ve heard? BIG CORRECTION related too). I owned the ls25mk 2…not the 27 as I wrote…big ... | |
| Which ARC ref linestage to try: Ref3, Ref5, Ref5SE? HATE forward sounding systems @ghdprentice no, unfortunately it was not just the unit… it was sort of a known thing…to the point that (for lack of better term) a cottage industry developed for CJ owners looking for more rugged 6922s to avoid this issue. FWIW, Kevin D. Crusaded... | |
| Which ARC ref linestage to try: Ref3, Ref5, Ref5SE? HATE forward sounding systems Thanks guys…that’s kinda what I was thinking…..may need to go to one of the non-supertube (or earlier supertube ) models to get what I’m looking for. I know that the ref3 and the ref2 mk2 have it…but maybe best of both worlds… I really appreci... | |
| Learned something new today and it isn't good. @kijanki nicely done. | |
| I Was Stunned I really like the look of that Etsy one. Congratulations OP. | |
| Preamp for VPI Prime 21 turntable $300-800 In this price range…I’d watch out for a Vincent pho700/701…used…they are giant killers in my experience, for my tastes. | |
| Where does "MidFi" differ from "HiFi" or "LOFI"? Wow @waytoomuchstuff , that’s actually pretty good stuff. | |
| The best plug in filter ever! @normb Hmmm…some pretty impressive sounding grammar… “…insupportable shibboleths are challenged in online forums” How long you must have waited to use “shibboleths!” |
