  1. 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?

  6. 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.

  8. 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!!
  9. AL 3. And they're still original.
  10. 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.
  11. 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.
  12. I have Crites A-4500Hz crossovers in them with Crites CT-125 tweeters.
  13. It would be like losing a lifelong friend. My La Scalas have given me sooo much listening pleasure of the years, but boy those Heresy IV sounded good.
  14. I'm thinking about trading my 1990 La Scalas for Heresy IV and cash. I've owned the La Scalas for over 25 years and love them. I'm getting older and the mid and high frequencies are starting to fatigue my ears. I picked up a recapped Marantz 2270 that were powering the Heresys and I loved the sound. After negotiating with the person I got the Marantz from, he's ready to deal. If I do the deal I know I'm never going to find another pair of La Scalas for what I got them for. Any opinions out there?
  15. Try a set of JJ tubes. They sound more detailed over the tubes that Decware sends. I also have Quicksilver Horn Mono tube amps. 25 watts per channel and you can roll in 6l6, 6550, EL34, and KT88 tubes. I use them with my La Scalas.

  19. Traveling in a fried-out Kombi On a hippie trail, head full of zombie I met a strange lady, she made me nervous She took me in and gave me breakfast And she said "Do you come from a land down under Where women glow and men plunder? Can't you hear, can't you hear the thunder? You better run, you better take cover" Buying bread from a man in Brussels He was six-foot-four and full of muscle I said, "Do you speak-a my language?" He just smiled and gave me a Vegemite sandwich And he said "I come from a land down under Where beer does flow and men chunder Can't you hear, can't you hear the thunder? You better run, you better take cover, yeah" Lying in a den in Bombay With a slack jaw and not much to say I said to the man, "Are you trying to tempt me? Because I come from the land of plenty" And he said Oh, "Do you come from a land down under? (Oh, yeah-yeah) Where women glow and men plunder? Can't you hear, can't you hear the thunder? You better run, you better take cover", 'cause we are Living in a land down under Where women glow and men plunder (yeah) Can't you hear, can't you hear the thunder? (Thunder) You better-better run, you better take cover Living in a land down under Where women glow and men plunder Can't you hear, can't you hear the thunder? Ooh, yeah You better run, you better take cover Where women glow and men plunder Can't you, can't you hear the thunder? (Can't you, can't you hear the thunder?) You better run, you better take cover
