Baba,
I was thinking about you tonight. I was thinking to converts some of my tapes to digital but I do not want to play with the quality aspects of the transfers. So, I wander: what if I encourage you to do more interesting transfers then ha...

N-set, I see you are determined to live and die with the charts. So be it. Prost.I think, BTW, Romy knows more than he tells about the parallel 6C33Cs. In any case, there are stable commercial examples to draw from, eg., the many examples from BAT....

Many audio publications grand some kind of idiotic rewards: “Product of Year”, “Editor Choose Award”, the “Best Sound at Show, “The Golden Ears” and so on. Trying to stay in the moronic awards-granting crowd I decided to form my own award: I would ca...

Yes, of course you know about the BAT but, once again, I should fact check before posting, eg., "BAT SET"; or better yet, just put a sock in it.I think the candidates are up the thread.....instead of posting, maybe I'll dig out Beethoven's PS #15...B...

Well, it is not necessary a fully qualified urban legend as the problem does take please with fixed based 6C33C but..... only under certain conditions. I have written about it a lot on my site but will very briefly recall it again.

Pearl (Stereo) LP, SHE553Here is a "bagatelle" from Dvorak; rather, a sack full. The work is done up in 6 short-ish "movements" that are +/- rounds based on the Ukranian "dumka", a sort of semi-hysterical peasant dance that typically features the al...

Stewart screens are probably the most highly regarded screens. Their website has a lot of detail including measurements of the "cans" that hold motorized screens. The cans are not all that big so you may be happy with flush mounting to the ceiling. Y...

Romy,do not spit in my eyes as I do have solid state PassLabs 350.5 but even with this 50W Class A amp (push pull) it is exactly the same problem if it is switched off completely even for a short while. I can take ~ 2 - 3 days to be back to norma...

Well got my very hefty piece APS PP 2000 today. This item is well packaged and weighs in at over 70 lps. You could pull something if your not careful positioning 2000 in your rack. Glad i have my Audiav Crystal rack for this behometh. My loaned 1050 ...

Poking around for options to acquire downloads of the Bruckner symphonies, including the performances briefly streamed free in April, I came across the following options on HDTracks.com. In no particular order we have, covering at least B4 through B9...

No not hum but hmmm. I don't hear anything like sparkle using the PP. It's deader allowing more ambient cues to come through consistently. Of course my hearing is no longer bat like, so maybe the youthful ears of Amir and NSet are able to hear what I...

in my case what I discovered is certainly very convincing. I tested today 3 times. The last time I has SS it was Lamm 1.1 and BAT 200, they did need 30 min to warm up but the sonic difference was not as huge as I observe with B2. Before 2 hours B2 in...

Doesn't Avantgarde make/offer giant speakers now? I thought they used to use TAD? I would not even mention this, except I have heard good/promising sound from Avantgarde on several occasions. I do not have recent experience with large/lower frequency...

In the past there was such a concept of full-function preamplifiers that included MM and MC inputs. With time such devises die out and nowadays it is VERY difficult to find a full-function preamplifier generally and a good sounding full-function ...

I have found the problem and was able to resolve the noise quandary.
The Lavry ADC has balance analog input and the Sansui has single-ended output. I use my PAD’s Dominus cable with an RCA to XLR adapter. The adaptor was made by BAT and I used it f...

Hi Romy,Interesting scale you've come up with there. I would like you to take a look at a preamplifier from Korea called Silvaweld. I have found that with this preamp (model SWC 1000) in my system I can differentiate easily the ...

This is always good advice, to get to know the character of the phono stage. Because my favorite cartridges are not low voltage (I use Decca London Jubilee and Reference) I have never had a need for the ET SU-1 step up unit. In fact, I had this in my...

Greg, I have written about my "DEBZ" speakers several times at this site, including Post ID 3269, early in my original Lamm ML2 thread. I mention these speakers now to compare what we are aiming at here to what I have already done, wh...

I do not exactly comfortable with oxric’s preoccupation with “parts”. Yes, there are some amps that invest a lot of attention into parts quality – the silver winding in Kondo, oil caps in BAT, of silver foil caps in AN might be the examples. Melquiad...

One more thing that I would like to point out in context of the recent Marc Mickelson’s review. Marc wrote:
“The Atma-Sphere amps are certainly more powerful than the ML3 Signatures, but not noticeably so unless you clip the Lamm amps. “

The basically the same tubes. The 6E5P has own unit pins layout with heaters connected across the tube – very moronic in my view and it does not allow twisting the AC filament wires to the very end. The 6E6P has a common pins layout that most of west...
