Clarisys Audio Auditorium Loudspeaker
Yes, most probably so. In fact, considering your set-up and the fact that other members who've heard it, found it really good! I'm sure it's mighty impressive and well balanced since you've taken the time and effort to do so. On the other side of the spectrum, without listing the exact makes of...- Big Dog RJ

Ron Resnick Launches Audio Cafe LLC, a New Clarisys Audio Dealer
That's correct maties! Ron has bigger fish to fry... he's busy packing up the Pendragon's... those big fishies are frying! Once all done, let me know I'll come over with a bottle of wine. I prefer salmon though grilled that is. I'm just kidding Ron, don't mean to be poopy... I'm reading all...- Big Dog RJ

Clarisys Audio Auditorium Loudspeaker
Based on the above experience with the multiple array of amplifiers and active x-overs driving an already "high performance" speaker system, if the differences are "huge" and it's something that the owner/user is looking for then so be it! That's great to know that things have improved all...- Big Dog RJ

Clarisys Audio Auditorium Loudspeaker
Attn: Young Skywalker! I just saw your signature... BTW how's Lord Vader? I was fairly concerned about his asthma... and breathing issues. I'm wondering whether any of the interconnects or power cords could be upgraded for better voicing. Nordost perhaps? Star wars, and George Lucas's saga...- Big Dog RJ

Clarisys Audio Auditorium Loudspeaker
Good to hear mate, it definitely sounds like you've found the one! Yes, can certainly relate to the "end game factor"... I've found mine as well, so I know the feeling. Cheers to music and fine recordings. Enjoy those finest tunes! Woof! RJ- Big Dog RJ

Nordost- Making the Connection
Haaa, good one mate. It use to be that way in the old days, more or less. But now, since we've been together now for over 20yrs, I find that honesty and transparency is far better than hiding... plus when you're honest you get an extra cuddle or something to that effect. No more hiding from my...- Big Dog RJ

Clarisys Audio Auditorium Loudspeaker
Attn: Byrdparis How are those Auditorium's coming along? Are they humming yet...? I'm thinking that you're following the guidelines on the required break-in period. Looking at the sheer size of these, those ribbon panels will most definitely require a fair amount of hours to really open up...- Big Dog RJ

What is the best acoustic material to place on the floor?
Yes, the room the room the rooom! Very tricky to get right and even then is never perfect, nor is our hearing! When I purchased my final speakers back in Sept 2018, they were bigger than the little apartment we lived in! Wifey called it our beloved shoebox. Had various speakers in there, from...- Big Dog RJ

New darTZeel CTH 8550 MKII owner experience
Very correct as mentioned in the last post, the ART150 will truly be overkill for your AG Horns. The ART150 is a power house, using a quad set of KT150 tubes. These are wired in Ultra linear pentode mode and in push-pull config, they will blow your roof off driving the Uno's very high efficiency...- Big Dog RJ

New darTZeel CTH 8550 MKII owner experience
G'day mate, If those are the speakers that you're using: Avant Garde UNO SD, of course the Dartzeel amplifier will drive those! In fact, any high quality amplifier (tube or SS) will effortlessly drive horns. These are rated at 107dB 18 Ohm loads, which is a very benign load, there's absolutely...- Big Dog RJ

ZELLATON Reference loudspeaker installation at the Conrad Johnson factory
No reply as yet... Too busy enjoying those very fine tunes! And building that awesome gear with those outstanding Zellaton's as their primary reference speakers. Now that deserves a mighty WOOF! RJ *Side note: that room looks a bit dinghy though. I was expecting some plush furniture with...- Big Dog RJ

Conrad Johnson: New Preamp Flagship - ART88
If I had that particular preamp, I wouldn't even bother with tube rolling. Especially with the ART88! Rather just enjoy the music. I'd be happy as with whatever version of tooobs Jeff sends in the unit. I'd be happily woofty woof'n! Not that I'm woof'n right now... Woof! RJ- Big Dog RJ

Hong Kong HiFi shops to visit
Yes, not sure of any primary dealership as yet or whether in the process of setting up. I would've thought by now...2024/25, especially considering HK and its highend market buying capacity, they should have Alsyvox fully established but doesn't seem to be the case. I was thinking more on the...- Big Dog RJ
