    Sound options for a PC

    I've been reading up on the Lepai LP-2020A+ and it seems pretty cool. Where do you get one though? The only local place I can find is importitall.co.za, and there you get basically no guarantee and US 110volt power supply. Anybody have a "Indeed", which appears slightly better build quality...

    Sound options for a PC

    Hello, I am going to get a new PC soon and I want relatively OK stereo only sound. I included a Logitec (or some such) powered speaker set on my spec list. But now I'm thinking I have a great pair of Tannoy bookshelf speakers just sitting here. To use them I would need a small footprint...

    NAD1020 or NAD3020

    Ps how much would a 1300 ("monitor series") in good condition be worth? Its phono stage has a lot of settings.

    NAD1020 or NAD3020

    In some cases you could go: 3020 + 4020 = 7020

    lame joke

    With no disrespect intended to anyone, but I just thought of possibly my first original joke: (and maybe it's not even new). What does a sports car, a valve amplifier, and a woman have in common? They look much better with the top off.

    Dealer for Valve Amplifier wanted?

    Hi Rodney, That is one way to go but it is limiting geographically, mostly because people want to see & hear, which is understandable. Also it seems there is actually quite a market of people who don't hang around online & on forums, and who would not otherwise even know of the existence. I am...

    Dealer for Valve Amplifier wanted?

    PS the typical kind of dealer I imagine would probably be a small personal setup where prospective customers can audition various combinations, get advice, etc.  probably more focussed on stereo than HT. Kind of the opposite of HiFi Corporation.

    Dealer for Valve Amplifier wanted?

    Hello, I'm interested to hear from forum members who are in the business and have shopfronts, who might be interested in becoming dealers for Vacuustica Anima valve amplifiers (www.auralescape.co.za) Even if you're not interested I would really like to learn more about the typical relationship...

    The Mike effect?

    Yes I do mean when you're beyond the real crappy stuff. Incidently the old amp in my example is a NAD Monitor series pre-amp, followed by an unknown USA hybrid power amp which, at the time, sounded better than the 2 bridged NAD power amps I was using!

    The Mike effect?

    Hello, I'd like your opinion on something I want to call "The Mike Effect", after Mike Gebert at Tafelberg Furnishers who told me of this years ago. I'm not one who can hear the improvement that a system change does immediately. I have to listen for hours & days to be convinced, and quite...

    Build Your Own Tube Amplifier - workshop in 2011

    "over designed" is part of the valve lure... Is that cover just loose over it, or does it form any part of the structural integrity?

    Build Your Own Tube Amplifier - workshop in 2011

    very nice cover over the power tranny. Is the transformer the same as the others underneath? Or does it mount differently?
