Re: Preamp Experiences

Welcome back to the pre amp user group Ivor! Not sure what cartridge you have fitted on your Roksan but if it's mc and your new pre/phono is mm only, I may be able to help. Have a step-up transformer that could easily be traded for wine. Let me know. Steve. Having only just purchased (and still very...

Re: Preamp Experiences

Hi Steve, I went from Valve to SS over the last year - I think! The blurb from Dyna reads as follows.. "The L200 eliminates mechanical contacts ( switches and pots ) and wiring from the signal path. The L200 provides "perfect" channel matching right across the volume range, eliminates...

Re: Pre-launch of new range of Ciúnas Dacs & USB transports

John, You asked for examples of how you might consider the look of your new product. This 'Wavelength' is quite similar to your 'Ciúnas' in size and material.

Re: Pre-launch of new range of Ciúnas Dacs & USB transports

John, I'd be very interested in working with you on designing a logo/packaging/website for Ciúnas. Couldn't do gratis but would consider kit as part payment (would need to be Mac friendly!).

Re: Tir Na Hifi Meet Up @ The Listening Suite

Many thanks to all for making us newbies feel so welcome; to J and D for the info, demo and facilities and to John Martyn in particular, for his patience and not getting hacked off doing the same number over, and over and over...

Re: Question about my phono stage

Frankie. Have a read of the following... http://www.audioasylum.com/reviews/Phon ... 64265.html

It uses your amp, a step up transformer and a Audio Technica 0C9 moving coil cartridge. I use the MKIII version of this cartridge and it works very well.

Re: Croft Iosis Power Amp

The hifi establishment with the Isobariks was Ceol Products run by Tony Boushel in Swanville Place, opposite Burdocks. There was a coffee shop/restaurant called Red Shoes.
