Music Night Alert! December 2nd from 6-9pm Whetstone Audio in Austin, TX will be hosting a music night featuring products from CCI (Colleen Cardas Imports) and Profundo. We will be introducing the new Unison Research Unico 50 Hybrid Integrated Amplifier and the new Trenner & Friedl Pharaoh Loudspeaker. Anyone that will be in (or can make it to...) the Austin area is heartily welcome. Should be fun!
Greetings to all, It's been a LONG TIME since i last checked in. Just about everything pictured I sent to view is gone. I'm currently to a vintage Linn intek with a pair of Epos ELS-3's. A NAD c440 is doing FM duty. The Linn is on loan and I'm leaning toward a purchase. I do have a Rotel 1070 my wife brought me last Christmas but no dedicated amp at the moment. Happy to see the EVO gang still here. Blessings to all.
A few days ago, I completed a power supply upgrade (designed and sourced from Dan Wright), on my Modwright SWP 9.0 SE phono stage. A substantial improvement on an already very good-sounding component.
Haven't checked in here for awhile, but I'm glad Tomaz is still posting cool music. I've been thinking about how the site seems to have become a bit dormant, which is a pity because it was so much fun when it was on the rise and everybody was contributing. I can't imagine why an audio site built on the premise of being friendly and informative isn't more popular or able to retain a loyal following. Could it be that audio blogs and boards only thrive when posters rank on each other and compete to squirrel out the most insidious "insider" gossip? I hope not.
The Cary's are back! And they do sound quite good. They have new (Electro-Harmonix) KT88's in them and a couple replaced pin-sleeves. But my main speakers are now out. I took out the woofers this weekend and sent them off to a guy who claims to be able to replace the surrounds without having to cut away the center of the driver....we'll see. In the meantime, I have pair of ProAc Tablette 50's that will have to fill in. Life is hard , I know. And yes, I try to keep back-ups to my back-ups for all my components.
