| OTL amplifiers Yes, I agree with Wellfed. I think that basically the only challenge in running AtmaSphere amplifiers is finding a loudspeaker with highish impedance. And, if you don't, there are still two options available. First, you could go with the Zero Auto... | |
| Darryl and Darryl ask ... where would you start? I agree that Daryl is correct!Honestly, my advice is usually to buy the component you love. The likelihood is that your tastes will not change radically, so choosing a component that really fits you can make for a lasting purchase(remember those?)... | |
| OTL amplifiers Some thoughts about reliability and feeding tubes to an OTL faster than spark plugs to a Hemi...I would be out of line to speak about amplifiers other than the AtmaSphere M60, but I can tell you I have nothing but the utmost respect for what Ralph... | |
| OTL amplifiers I really cannot add much to the advantage/disadvantage of OTL amps, except to say that they certainly do possess a magic and realness that is hard to beat. But, I would like to say something about the Zero autoformers. If they work for you, and yo... | |
| What's more important; sound or brand name? Just stand up to the barrage Psychicanimal, and hold your ground!I personally heard of a group of "real" audiophiles(not us) getting together and listening to a bunch of powercords, and The Absolute Power Cord did quite well. Quite well. To the po... | |
| Shanling T100 to the T200 shootout Yes, I definitely wanted to make a point and not flame. My list said people who do not prefer SACD to CD fall into ONE of those categories, not all. And, yes, I truly come across peole who lie about the sonics. I use SACD in my second system, and ... | |
| Shanling T100 to the T200 shootout First, an audiophile who does not admit to the superiority of SACD over CD falls into one of the following:1) the system does not have the capability to show the differences2) they themselves do not have the capability of hearing the difference3) ... | |
| Krell....what is the difference in the ....... Damn! I intend to be at Vinh's on Sunday, and was really looking forward to meeting you, Russ.Anyway, do have a good time and enjoy the music! | |
| Jadis Orchestra Reference ---- tube biasing I have owned this tube amp for over 4 years now, with the tubes still going strong despite putting about 15 hours/week on them.Still, I don't doubt this is perhaps the most difficult tube amp to bias out there. And, while most people consider my A... | |
| Delta Labs Sorry for not comparing the Redline against anything else.I have tried the cable in an iteration of my system a few years ago. Like any cable company, the hype far outpaces the performance. If that sounds like I am criticizing Delta, I am not.My i... | |
| Delta Labs Delta Labs, which I will refer to as Brand X, is a very, very dirty word around these parts!I would not be surprised if the censors didn't let my post through.They scammed many an Audiogoner back in 2000, and are persona non grata on this site. Th... | |
| Shanling T100 to the T200 shootout Personally, I am not sure why anyone would choose a Redbook only player when the SACD version of the player is also available. I think that SACD definitely offers real sonic improvement, and while the format is not growing at breakneck pace, it is... | |
| Someone help me Sound Too Thin ????? First let me say that it's definitely not the CD player. I owned Cambridge D500 SE in the past, and the one thing they were not was lightweight or thin.Yes, I would agree with the speaker assertion. One other thing before giving up on the Triangle... | |
| How many AudiogoNers are amateur chefs? There is only one hobby that supercedes audio for me, and that is food. My only regret in life is that I don't spend nearly as much time as I would like cooking or listening.The passion that comes from really getting in to the moment of cooking is... | |
| Can I get "Great" used speakers for $1800?? What you wish for is REEAALLYY easy!The only trick, and this is a big deal for most of us, is to just be patient. Oh, and I should mention that you will be looking at used speakers if you follow this plan. But hey, one good thing about used speake... |
