    what are you listening to?

    Probably not. I have two Hafler DH-200s I built from kits and have generally used one for each channel, without biamping so one channel was idle the other doing the work and the system sounded better. Another improvement using those amps was when I moved the power cords to the wall outlet...

    what are you listening to?

    Well since I had a disc tray loaded, I swapped amps and fired up that Underworld-Beaucoup Fish I have been waiting to hear…then turned up the volume after it got started…twice. Followed by Ultravox-Quartet, U2-Zooropa and Tina Brooks-True Blue. Rig is without the subs, DQ-10s and amp is now the...

    what are you listening to?

    I thought the clipping shutdown sounded unusual, now thermal shutdown, done it a hundred times over the decades. I keep reading good things about those amps.

    what are you listening to?

    I read a lot about folks skipping the tubes in the hot weather but my room is large enough and the tube amps not so bad that I have never really had them heat the room. But I do use the sand amps in the warm weather and neither of them gets warm even when putting out max effort.

    Nichicon Audio Grade Capacitors Discontinued?

    Nichicon lost the workers that can make the 5mm and 6.3mm diameter caps and they are being discontinued across the line. The world comes to a screeching halt every time commonly recommended parts go EOL over on ak. There are other suppliers. I did not research if the caps you are mentioning...

    what are you listening to?

    We are well aware of how much better phono sounds on my rig than the upgraded CDP or the Rega. Played the CD Wilco Yankee Hotel Foxtrot and compared to the record and all four uninitiated listeners preferred the record. Friend that had the CDs saved just the disc and front, removable artwork...

    what are you listening to?

    I was going to close with that but I'm still plowing through those 370 new to me CDs after having finished the 1200 new to me CDs a couple years ago. With my Discogs listings I'm learning which ones I really like and can load the change with a 5 pack, good for the days listening. More for...

    Friday evening neighbor kid behind me txt'd, wanting to cruise to tunz. Nice night, thought he was tending a fire that he likes to do. Nope, wanted to hear the rig. Come on over. 28-year old and I'm playing different tunes from my start in music and explaining the change in music in the late...

    Those that want to close this thread, are the topics, especially age related degradation causing you to think about your condition? I’m not worried about Biden running the country for the next couple/few years. He has a lot of professional people guiding him. Most of Donald’s crew is in jail...

    Sleepy Joe

    Vegetable, don't need that word anymore. Jamie Oliver and I'm sure others just use the word veg. Seems right to me in both this thread and as the general word for regular use. We can stop adding the table to the word, doesn't add anything. What a shitty choice we have so far. At least...

    what are you listening to?

    Well, I listened to the 80s on Friday but the 90s were even further from what I enjoy knowing most of the artists but never seeking out any of their work. So I set up a rig in the tv room to test some repaired speakers and an amp that supposedly needed to be shot, with DeoxiT. Yes the Denon...
