| Technics SL1210 MKII It's hard to beat in it's price range. | |
| worth the jump to Cornwall IV's from Forte IV's? Keep the Fortes. An upgrade would be Volti. | |
| Mcintosh MC275 alternatives? Quicksilver 40 watt Mid Monos. Not pretty but no better amp available. | |
| Best low power amps under 800$ (10-60 w) @teo_audio Smells Like Tube Spirit.... But his budget doesn't. | |
| Any Quicksilver MX-190 owners here? I'd just measure the cutout and find one that works. It really doesn't need to be identical looking. Knowing Quicksilver, it's just a generic switch. | |
| Price Isn't Always Indicitive of Quality or Performance Use what sounds good. Sometimes it's 150 bucks and sometimes it's 3500. | |
| Duelund 12AWG Biwire Amp runs hot I'm thinking one of the runs is shorted. | |
| What is the best 2 channel listening chair? @juanmanuelfangioii I am a bit of a minimalist and love my listening chair I bought at Ikea It's a very good listening chair. Try the foot stool for a little bit more comfort, best combo I have found. | |
| Upgrade path direction Upscale has the Lintons on sale with free stands right now. | |
| Rogue 100 dark Maybe I should post asking for a 75 wpc tube amp that will give me that tubey sound. I would recommend a Prima Luna amp with EL-34s or maybe 6L6 tubes. That is where good tube magic happens. I have EL-34s in most of my tube amps. Edit: The EL-... | |
| Harmon Kardon Citation 12 Amp with AR 9 LS Speakers: OHM's Question The Citation 12 will be fine. I'm pretty sure it puts out more than 60 wpc. That was the amp that taught me 60wpc is enough as long as I didn't want to play louder than comfortable levels. | |
| Rogue 100 dark With a SLP-98 and proper speaker placement in a good room, you should have everything you need. The benefits of tubes happens after you have everything else sorted out. I'd look at setup rather than gear. | |
| Stoked their are sound buffs like myself... Sounds like you need some new loudspeakers? | |
| Help me choose speakers If you can't place your speakers for best performance, you are just stuck with what you have. You will still hear an improvement with better loudspeakers, but you may be far from optimized. | |
| Connections of Kimber Hero Unscrew the other end and look. I think that is possible on Hero? |
