| Willsenton R8 KT88/EL34 x4 Tube Integrated Amp? There are quite a few china amps that perform as good,. Cayin, Line Magnetic, and many others. Cayin is my fav. Prima Luna also are quite good.But I know you are refering to budget priced amps. So that eliminates PL's line. | |
| HiFi vs MidFi add my personal experience: I have $20K speakers but my earlier 1K speakers delivered the music. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~There is more snakeoil going on in speaker hype that all other snakeoil concerning all things audio,, well, except for the cable ... | |
| The smoothest amp you've heard? All the tube amps I've heard, pretty much all sound very close..If that makes sense.Speakers make allllll the difference. Which is why I am a WBer cultist. | |
| Jadis JA30 Mk2, how great??? IMHO The JA30 is my fav Jadis amp.Has that bass solid /tight punch of the JA200.Its quite a special amplifer. I saw a pair for 4G's months ago, Would love to swap the Defy out for the 30;'s. but as i have upgrades in the Defy, not doable.The KT1... | |

| Vintage vs Modern speakers. What I hear in both speakers is calledResonancesMost folks , as yourself, have absoluetly no issues with resonances.All speakers have soem degree of resonances. Some more, others less. I tend towards the very lowest possible resonances throughout ... | |
| Interesting experience with two very different speaker designs Are you sure you are being honest here???Unbiased and fair.IMHO there is no possible way a Tekton or any other xover speaker is going to beat out the Tang Band 2145. This is a impossibility and I am afraid to say I do not believe for even 1 second... | |
| Vintage vs Modern speakers. I am happy to have both. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~I morphed both low sens and high sens together, Best of both worlds , separate cabinets but one cohesive meshed soundstage.Best of both designs. Could I be happy with only 1 single WBer, Sure i coul... | |
| Jadis JA30 Mk2, how great??? Even the JA80's are too heavy, Jadis should have madeJA30, JA60 and say about 4 or 5 intergrated and thats it. | |
| Are Pre-Amps necessary? Just looked overa few DAC's, that I like, None have vol pot.I have to cancel my above opinion,. Linestage are necessary as now you get more opportunities to pick which CD player/DAC you want.So yes linestage are valid and necessary. | |
| Are Pre-Amps necessary? chorus670 posts10-14-2021 11:41pmNever heard a pre that "Improved" the SQ compared to "No Pre". ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~WEll true and not so true.My Jadis DPL , 20+ yrs old, bought last year , now have Mundorf EVO caps and Takman Rey resistors + runn... | |
| Tang Band 2145 in action Ok you could very well make a system with dual tang bands, 2145 + 1878and end up with close to same results as in this dual davidLouisPity the sound in this vid is severly compromise.These WBers bring this legendary concert to a near real experi... | |
| My Experience With Tekton However I am not one of them, and I sort of “believe in” the 20-20k Hz range as being valid. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~Just listening to Mahvishnu Orchestra Live Central part 1973Well sure, that legendary recording needs, demands 20hz (Billy Cobham d... | |
| Jadis JA30 Mk2, how great??? **not stable,,,flawed design,,** are the 2 comments i heard made by 2 dif local tech geeks.I ain't buying. I think Jadis should have only made the JA30 and JA80, a few intergrated.Whats the point in designing amps weighing over 80 lbs?? | |
| Jadis JA30 Mk2, how great??? Here's a look inside at the upgrades.fast forward to 6 mintes,, in this vid, I still have the Millennium tweeter, Which I dumped earlir this year and went WBer set up as heard above.The dual WBers completely annihilates the Seas in midrange fq's... |
