HAVE YOU ARRIVED AT YOUR FINAL SYSTEM AND WHAT’S IN IT? WHAT ARTIST IS YOUR GO TO? OH CALVIN! Will you ever stop shouting? It's simply rude. | |
Are Tubes the "DEI" of the Audio World? @bigtwin I must say, your topic is a grope too far for a simple soul such as I. | |
HAVE CABLES EVER TAKEN YOUR SYSTEM FROM SOUNDING JUST OK TO SOUNDING GREAT? Experiences ? @OP: @calvinj Mr. Calvin Johnson, did you initially disclose, prior to starting this (and your other) threads, that you peddle a line of cables? If not, do you not think that full-disclosure is essential to establish your credibility, and avoidi... | |
HOW MUCH IS TOO MUCH TO SPEND ON A SYSTEM? IF YOU GET THE SOUND DOES IT MATTER? SOME MIGHT SAY THAT TOO MUCH IS NEVER ENOUGH WHILE SOME MIGHT SAY TOO MUCH IS SIMPLY TOO MUCH. Clearly this is a serious conundrum for many. And sadly, the audiophile landscape is littered with all too many failed marriages due to unresolved WA... | |
WHY DO SOME AUDIOPHILES TRY TO TELL OTHERS WHAT THEY CAN OR CAN’T HEAR IN A SYSTEM? "What is a rhetorical question? A rhetorical question is an inquiry that ends in a question mark but is asked for effect rather than to elicit an answer. It’s often used in persuasive writing but is also common in everyday conversation. Dependin... | |
WHY DO SOME AUDIOPHILES TRY TO TELL OTHERS WHAT THEY CAN OR CAN’T HEAR IN A SYSTEM? WHY DO SOME feel the need to SHOUT when they START THEIR THREADS? | |
WHY DO SOME AUDIOPHILES TRY TO TELL OTHERS WHAT THEY CAN OR CAN’T HEAR IN A SYSTEM? @rodman99999 ’ "Feynman was and will remain, my favorite lecturer.... He mentioned often (and: I took to heart) his favorite Rule of Life: "Never stop learning!" ’ For me, one of the greatest joys of living longer is having the opportunity, ... | |
WHY DO SOME AUDIOPHILES TRY TO TELL OTHERS WHAT THEY CAN OR CAN’T HEAR IN A SYSTEM? OP asks what is perhaps the most profound question ever asked here. It is one which touches upon age-old human behavior far beyond the narrow confines of high-end audio. | |
HAVE CABLES EVER TAKEN YOUR SYSTEM FROM SOUNDING JUST OK TO SOUNDING GREAT? Experiences ? No. And goodness knows I’ve tried a lot of ‘em. 10% improvement in some areas in the best case scenarios. If that. And ROI? Minimal. If that. | |
Accuphase e260 OP: FWIW, I liked my Accuphase E280 so much that I very recently moved further up in the Accuphase integrated amplifier lineup. I cannot speak about the E260, but can reiterate what I and others have said about Accuphase SQ and build quality. ... | |
Will Accuphase E-800 be enough to power Klipsch La Scala speakers? I have an E-800 and it drives both my Sonus Faber Guarneri Homage and Magnepan LRS+ effortlessly. Mucho, mucho headroom. With even more efficient speakers, my goodness, you might be able to reach the volume levels of a stadium rock concert! :) ... | |
Accuphase e260 I have an Accuphase E-280. I find it to be more to my liking than the amp it replaced, which was a Luxman 550AXii. The build quality of both Accuphase and Luxman is superb. Accuphase has chosen to offer internal DAC and phono stage as add-on op... | |
Solid state amp that tube fan can be happy with? Wells Audio may be just what you're looking for. | |
More potential bad news for some big names... @wswright20 "Thank God the people have spoken!" Any reference to some "supreme being" in the context of this particular president-elect is ironic and absurd. We are mere mortals and often, all too often, as the Bard reflected, fools. | |
???What's The LEAST Expensive "End Game"Amplifier You've Ever Heard??? Ever since I sold my venerable tube separates i’ve been searching for a "least expensive" or at least moderately -priced ’endgame’ (that’s a rather awful term IMO) After trying various components, too many to mention, I’m now thinking Accuphase C... |
