  3. Don't laugh! Joe Cool (vocal) is one bad azz jazz song by Vince Guaraldi New pressing on yellow vinyl Thanks to all the suggestions regarding my high frequency issue on some vinyl. Now this Vince Guaraldi pressing sounds fabulous highs, mids, and lows.
  4. Question for the vinyl lovers. I have a Rega Planar 3, Neo power supply, with a Rega Ania MC cartridge. Vincent PHO 701 phono preamp with a NOS RCA 12au7 black plate tube. Mids and bass are phenomenal. The highs on some vinyl are harsh. Not all, just some. I'm very sure the cartridge is setup properly because it's not all vinyl. Any recommendations? Or is it the nature of vinyl?

  9. I found this amp on my local Craigslist for a couple hundred. 1626 Darling 3/4 watt integrated tube amp. Yes, 3/4 watt. It drove my La Scalas just fine. Wonderful little amp. I sold a pair of minty Cerwin Vega MX400, supposedly 105db efficient. Demonstrated them with the 1626 and the guy could not believe it was only 3/4 watt. I bet I'm the only one to ever try that with Cerwin Vegas.
  10. Bottlehead Foreplay tube preamplifier
  11. I've tried many different amps with my La Scalas. Even Hafler 9270 mono bridged. Blew a few tweeter diaphrams with that setup. 120 decibels?! Yikes 😬 After listening to my Marantz 2270 for a few weeks now I am completely satisfied. The trade for the Heresy IV is off. Long live the La Scala!!
  12. AL 3. And they're still original.
  13. Mcintosh C26 preamp and Decware SE84UFO. I also have Quicksilver Horn Mono. I'm using those with my Forte II. I traded the Mcintosh for the Marantz 2270. The Marantz blows the Mcintosh Decware combo away.
  14. Ok, since I hooked my La Scalas to my Marantz 2270 I got last weekend it sounds muddy. When I stand off to the side it sounded better. The positive negative wires were reversed on the left speaker. DUH!!!🙄 The 70watts gives them that extra headroom, more punch. Something I've always liked about Marantz is the mid tone control. I turned it to 10:00. Toned the mids down a bit. Gary Numan-The Pleasure Principle!!!!!!! I might not trading after all.
  15. I have Crites A-4500Hz crossovers in them with Crites CT-125 tweeters.
