| What are the more subtle sounding tube preamps? Hello, Robertsong.I'm biased because I own the first preamp I'm going to suggest. Take a gander at the Don Sachs Model 2 6SN7 preamp. Depending on what caps, tubes and connections you select, I think the price will land somewhere between $2500 and... | |
| Are there any $1500 tube preamps that that can compare with Tubes4hifi's SP14? Hello, amritash. My first tube preamp was an Audio by Van Alstine T-8. I thought it was pretty awesome until I heard Don Sachs's SP14/Model 2 preamp. I know guys who are satisfied with their T-8 preamps. AVA now has a new tube preamp for under $10... | |
| Climbing the Preamp ladder Hello, dpm.Until just six weeks ago, I was in your very shoes. I had spent close to a year searching for ’the’ preamp that was going to keep me satisfied for a long time. I wasn’t interested in an incremental upgrade. I wanted a big increase in SQ... | |

| Harbeth Compact 7s vs. Pioneer's $129 speakers My thanks to the OP. I have read several posters' thoughts on the Pioneer speakers. I have got to try a pair myself. I'll bet they pair nicely with my sub.As for Dysons....I must have bought the same vacuum cleaner as Donjr (a Miele). The salesman... | |
| Cables more hype than value? Hello. I thank you for the welcome.The upgrade bug bit me a few months ago when I noticed a gentleman was offering to sell his Simaudio i3.3 Amplifier here on Agon. He was kind enough to sell it to me. I love it! That amp (even with an ordinary po... | |
| Cables more hype than value? I'm almost afraid to post this, but here goes...I just started (okay, restarted) this hobby after a 25 year hiatus. I just upgraded my stock power cable (looks just like a computer power cable) to a Shunyata Venom 3. I can hear a big difference. M... | |
| Anyone else receive low offers right away ? I'm pretty new to Audiogon and fairly new to high end audio, so I don't have a lot of experience here. I have bought a pair of Sennheiser HD650s here and I'm very happy with them. I think I got a good deal and I hope the seller was happy as well. ... |
