Tube Amplifier Modifications

I don't know where else to put this, so Stephen can feel free to move it to another category.

I have been looking around for a place to modify (and hopefully, improve) my Audio Innovations Model 1000 tube monoblocks.

I ran across a local fellow who, on his website, quotes a positive endorsement from Art Dudley. I took him at his word and dropped the amps off last Thursday. His name is Blackie Pagano (dba "Tubesville").

Vincent equipment

Hi folks,

Is anyone familiar with Vincent gear? There is very little on the net about it...most in languages I can't read. A local audio dealer recently began carrying the brand but only has the top-of-the-line models (i.e., items I can't afford ) for demo. I'm just looking for the basic 2 channel integrated amp and cdp.

Thanks.

Mike

B&W 802d with NAD Master Series or Lyngdorf TDA 2200/CD1?

I HAVE A DREAM (and a dilemma) :-)

First a little background:

As a student and have a limited income, but have got a fair price for my old surround system, changing to stereo now. But my pocket doesn't contain limited depths.

For the new system, I have decided to focus on the speakers as the main and heavy part of the setup (and economy) and buy an amp/player, that, while not being completely up to the price/performance standard of the speakers, will get the job done within certain sense.

Denon DVD-5910CI vs. Marantz DV-9600 vs. Pioneer DV-79AVi

Hi all,

I'd appreciate your help - any thoughts or experiences regarding all three universal players?

1080p capability isn't as big a deal as the sound reproduction, as I'll be spending 95% of my time listening to SACD/DVD-A/CDs. I also have a tube amp, which will likely add a bit of warmth to the equation.

Thanks in advance,

Bill
