    Lampizator Valve / Tube Rolling Review Thread

    Here’s my TRP3 with the F2a adapters. No longer using the Sophia rectifier. Currently using the Cossor 53KU.

    “All of which leaves me pondering the two-way Clarysis Studio. Smaller, lighter, capable of active operation; maybe, just maybe…” Roy Gregory So do I— active operation. Florian, we’ll be talking about this at AXPONA.

    Clarisys audio - Auditorium!

    Florian, care to expand on the Picolo? Is it smaller than the Minuet?

    It certainly doesn’t for me. Vocals are not positioned the same for every recording and do not vary based on loudness.

    Ron, how wide apart are the speakers? And distance to seating? I know pics can be deceiving. Just an fyi, when positioning mine, I spent time getting the bass right first ( played pink noise and used analyzer app to do crude placement) then refined from there. Set up Studios and Minuets this...

    I know I was never able to get the quantity and quality of the bass out of my Apogee Scintillas. The Sudios go lower, have more impact(you can feel the bass) and even in the upper 20s, lower 30 hz range you can really differentiate the notes and tone—at least for me in my setup.

    I have no doubt that is the case. At the time I bought the Apogee/Krell system I had never heard of Lamm. Were they around back then?

    Yes, no doubt VAC is great with these speakers(I like the way VAC is voiced), but I’m surprised how musical the Hegel monos are. And I’m coming from Manley mono tube amps.

    Ron’s New System

    I think I have sensitivities like Ron and one reason I’ve liked the Clarisys is their midrange balance.

    Congrats Ron! Looking forward to your comments when broken in and the Hegel amps are up and running.

    Couldn’t believe the change at the 225-225 hour mark.

    As I mentioned earlier, I owned the Scintilla’s and was lucky enough to have spent time with almost every model except the Grands. One of the dealers was 5 blocks from my house!

    Axpona 2024 who is going and why?

    Clarisys speakers (Minuets) will be in one of the Holm Audio rooms and in the Hegel room. Florian is bringing the Auditorium with the revised midrange and tweeter ribbons. I don’t know what room yet.
