10.3 | information please | BLIVIT::JUCH | | Thu Dec 29 1988 23:44 | 3 |
| I wnat some information about VTL amps and preamps. How are they
regarded in their "country of origin"?
|
10.4 | US VTL Reviews | USRCV1::THOMPSONP | Paul Thompson, Rochester, NY | Fri Dec 30 1988 01:40 | 19 |
| If th US is their country of origin, the Hi-Fi magazines have raved
about their performance. J. Gordon Holt of Stereophile has rated
the VTL 300 as the best sounding amp he has heard, over the ARC
300's. His only concern was that since the company is relatively
new, they haven't yet established a track record of performance.
I seem to remember that he experienced some problems with the test
unit.
The Absolute Sound reviewed the 100, 300 and 500 and thought that they
were all very good. They reported that these units provided the
best low end performance they had heard from a tube amp, bettering
all but the best solid state amps in this area. The Ultimate pre
amp was also well reviewed, but not as highly rated as the power
amps. Some raved about it while others thought it was good, but
not the best available. One comment made about the power amps was
that you could definitely hear a family resemblance throughout the
line. For more money you get more watts and more volume, but the
sound quality is consistent throughout the line.

An amplifier (and tuner) to fit between a Linn LP12/Basik/K9 and a pair
of Gale 401 loudspeakers. Even a recommendation on what to put there
would be welcome. Have heard that NAIM works well with the Linn
but will it drive the Gales?

| The Boss is upset cos they are moving Radio 2 to FM in August an
she only has AM on her car radio an its not fair.
She does not particularly want the kind of stereo which Cortinas
with furry dice usually have, which can be heard pulsating at 500
yards; she only wants a basic mono car radio with FM.
So if anybody out there has upgraded their system recently, and
has an FM car radio going spare, please give me a call.

| Here's something to upset you audiophiles.
I've just bought a fab new guitar & synthesiser and am getting fed up
with plugging it in & out of my hi-fi in order to hear the full stereo noises
that it generates.
Has anyone got an old unwanted free or cheap stereo amplifier (ideally
with speakers) that they would like to part with. I won't be gigging it so it
doesn't need to be very high powered or robust.

10.24 | ST-S700-ES Sony tuner manual needed | ISIDRO::RUPEREZ | | Thu Apr 18 1991 17:37 | 14 |
| I've had the opportunity to buy the good ST-S700-ES stereo tuner
from SONY at a very good price, since it was an ex-demo unit.
It actually cost me less than 50% of its original price, but it
also has some inconvenience, the guys at the store didn't know
where the manual was.
Does anybody have the same unit and would be so kind to send me
an extract or fotocopy of the explanations to use it,
by internal mail?. Specially the programming part is not that easy.
Many thanks in advance

10.25 | | FORTY2::SHIPMAN | | Thu Apr 18 1991 18:32 | 22 |
| I've got one. I'll try to find my manual. Programming is easy. For the
presets, use up/down tuning to find a station, pick mono/stereo and IF
wide/narrow as appropriate to the signal. Press 'mem-set' (or whatever it's
called), then the numbered button for the memory you want to store the station
in.
Are you also interested in how to set the powerup sequence for timed recording?
I'm not so familiar with that but I think you turn the lock switch to
'program', then press 'mem-set' and the preset button for each successive
station you want on powerup (it's easier to do it than to describe it). It'll
remember up to four settings. Turn the lock switch back to 'memory' (I think
that's its name) and when you next power the unit up, it'll tune your first
selection; on the next powerup, it'll tune the second, and so on. You need an
outboard timer to use this, though, along with a tape deck that'll record on
powerup.
It's a nice tuner. Nice audio but it needs a good signal to get really quiet.
Worst features are the lack of memories (only ten) and the vicious mute circuit
when in stereo mode - a single crack of noise mutes the output for half a
second or so. One day I'll get in and try to disconnect the muting.

another topic when I've got used to the damned thing.
The price of Naim's CD is ridiculous, funny money. Now if Linn were to
put the D to A part of the Numerik into a chip set, and base a DAC
around it to be used with any half-decent transport, you'd be talking
business.....
mmmm, I feel two new topics coming on!

10.34 | Micromega Optic revisited | BAHTAT::SALLITT | | Fri Jul 26 1991 13:16 | 23 |
| Re my ealier request for an English copy of Micromega Optic
instructions, please ignore! Apparently it was never meant for export
outside of France and Belgium, so the user guide never was printed in
English. So, back to the drawing board....
I am told by the importers that the Optic is based around the Philips
582 chassis. As such, a remote control for the Philips 582 should work
with the Optic, and the user guide should also apply.
Does anybody out there have one of these things who could:-
1. Send me a photostat of the user guide,
and
2. Give a part code and a source for the remote control?
(Yes, I *know* the Linn Kairn's remote should work with a Philips
chassis, but I can't afford a Kairn yet....;->)
Thanks in advance.

Why not buy the remote control for the Kairn - its available
separatly I think. Then you have a good excuse to buy the real thing
when funds permit.

A home stereo amplifier.
Nothing fancy or flash. Cheap and chearful is OK for the purpose
I have in mind. Nice 'n' cheap. Treble and bass would be handy
plus volume control.
If you've got an amp laying around doing nothing and you think its
worthless then drop me a line at the address in the top left corner

Hi,
I am looking for a power amp - must be powerful - say 150-200W RMS/channel
into 8 ohms, both channels driven with <0.1% distortion, robust, have ballanced
line inputs and gain controls. Something like an Amcron DC300 for example
No, I can't afford a KSA150!
This is for stage sound re-inforcement/PA work.
Any ideas (offers????)
Thanks!
