| Would You Rather Own A Good SET Amp, Or A Great Push Pull Amp? I use data especially when matching speaker and amps. For instance, at first glance it would seem any flea powered SET would be fine for my 103db efficient Khorns, but upon closer examination there are two impedance dips down to around 3ohms and 4... | |
| Electrical question I monitor voltage 24/7, 120-121 constant, 1200 watt microwave 116v, microwave and toaster oven together 112v. | |
| The Accidental Tweak EMI/RFI contamination could be downside of cover off. I have trifield meter, certain closely placed components could give off relatively large amounts of EMI/RFI, transformers are notorious for this, mu-metal shielding around these. | |
| Would You Rather Own A Good SET Amp, Or A Great Push Pull Amp? @kevn I've experienced any number of sound stages over the decades, this both from my own systems and others. It's been a long term migration towards SET and horns, simply my preference at this time, could change somewhat as I continue to experime... | |
| ??? Where Does "High End" Start ??? Intention and sound quality are the arbiters of high end, not name brand or price. I've heard many systems over many decades, high price and brand name don't necessarily result in high engagement factor. Many boutique manufacturers out there, inte... | |
| Would You Rather Own A Good SET Amp, Or A Great Push Pull Amp? @kevn There is still plenty of differentation and or uniqueness amongst recordings, this includes sound staging. Still you can't get past inherent or a static generalized pattern of sound staging with any particular system, therefore, my system wi... | |
| Why don’t more members post their systems in their profile? The photos aren't the important thing, its about the equipment, this isn't a beauty contest. This all about context, actual experience counts, this why members should maintain past as well as present equipment on virtual system list. | |
| ??? Where Does "High End" Start ??? Putting a dollar value on it is not an objective measure. Listen to many systems at all price points, develop your listening and evaluation skills. Hearing systems that appeal to you, try to replicate that at home, once you've reached your goal yo... | |
| Would You Rather Own A Good SET Amp, Or A Great Push Pull Amp? @atmasphere Amp in question is special order Tektron, Italian company, amp was Robin at Robyatt Audio personal amp. | |

| Would You Rather Own A Good SET Amp, Or A Great Push Pull Amp? Interesting, the analogy to a camera lens, although the vaseline quip not accurate. So, if we are discussing image outlines, I don't like my image outlines drawn overly precise so does that mean lens out of focus, seems I do like it a bit out of f... | |
| Would You Rather Own A Good SET Amp, Or A Great Push Pull Amp? I do have fond memories of that Dynaco ST35, will have first listening session with the Bendix 6094/EL84 amps this weekend. | |
| Electrical question You need dedicated line. The lower voltage won't hurt things b ut the sudden surge when microwave turns off could harm things in long run. | |
| The Accidental Tweak Some nudes are beautiful, all those parts very sexy. | |
| Would You Rather Own A Good SET Amp, Or A Great Push Pull Amp? Never owned a Dynaco ST35 but my best bud had one back in the day, this with Dynaco speakers in quad setup, Linn LP12, very nice. I built a Latino ST70 some years ago, adding some of my own mods, this with Merlin VSM. The Art Audio Carissa Sig... |
