    Re: Thoughts on Benchmark AHB2 sound ...

    Like you, I purchased the Benchmark amp before a lot of the reviews were out. I have to disagree with your impression that the reviewers have reservations about the amp. The majority of the reviews...

    Re: Benchmark ahb2 power amplifier?

    Yesterday, I posted twice to this thread. Today, they’re gone.
    I am the big fan of Benchmark. Long time owner of the Ahb2, La4, and Benchmark cables and interconnects.

    Re: Keces Ephono & Epower supply

    The buzz has been eliminated. My Rega tonearm has a Incognito wiring harness. The ground wire had a alligator clip. Clip cut-wire stripped-buzz gone!
    And so far, the Keces is awesome!

    This is not about my new Keces preamp, but a problem that I noticed since I plugged it in. No, I don’t think it s the Keces.

    Re: Keces Ephono & Epower supply

    Since it was on sale, and I am getting a 14 day trial, the Ephono & Ephono power supply have been ordered. Good timing, since the sale ended later the same day!

    The LA4 has now been plugged in for about a month. It has replaced my 2 year old Audio by Van Alstine T10 Rb tube preamp. I was happy with this preamp until I went to RMAF in October. Since I already...

    Re: First Watt moves to Pass Labs

    My F6 has been in my system since last May. It will be interesting to see if anything changes.

  25. Sticky: Poll: Re: What type of amps do you use? Tube? Solid State? Both? Hybrid?

    In May of last year, I purchased a First Watt F6.
    last week, I added a RB10 tube preamp from Audio by Van Alstine. It is a new model and sounds very good in my system!
