In your Era/JLTI comparison, had the Slee been powered up for 24 hours or more? If not, give it a try after a few days. Although, the price comparison between the two is no longer fair seeing that ...

That's a helluva list. In fact, it's just about every phono I've had an interest in the last couple of years.I used to own the Gram Slee Era Gold mkV w/ the transformer-less GS EXP stepup a...

Terry Cain always said the Fi/Abby combo was "magic in a bottle". The A205A/Abby combo is another one of those freakish pairings. Try picking up a used one for ~$600 around here, you will...

Hey Restock,Have you ever had a chance to try out an Almarro A205A EL34 SEP amp with your Abbys? Man, it is one seriously sweet combo - quite possibly, one of the best amp/speaker c...

The 3 VPI dual-motor flywheel drive units is an interesting approach. What is your reasoning for the ultra low power drive units?Seems to be the exact opposite of how Voyd used 3 high-torgu...

Hi Mitch,This is going to sound neurotic, but I've actually been thinking about moving the speakers back over to the open side the last few weeks. Unfortunately, I can't remeber clearly wha...

All SET!

I've always wondered how 2 watts would sound on my speakers. I've wanted to try 2A3 or 45 amps. The I-Bens are the same efficency as yours, so tell me, how does it work?What kind of music d...

That's a really nice looking Madisound kit. The cabinery is fantastic.I bet that setup has an "immediate" sound, you can't get any more direct than an integrated SET amp and Foste...

No subwoofers used in my readings. Just the IM-Ben double horns. I used 80dB as the base level because of how far the lows dipped under the "0" level, needed some padding. To comp...
