Re: How to: add a RELt5i to the tundra 2.2 Tarandus via hi-level connection

I don't believe you can use a Y-cable between the outputs of a Tundra stereo unless you want to turn it into a mono amplifier. I expect Fredrik will correct me if I am wrong.

Re: Tundra monos driving subwoofers?

It's really going to depend on how efficient the subs are and how loud you want to drive them. I drove an 18" JBL 4645C subwoofer in conjunction with the 3677s I had for several years. Fredrik and I also used that setup at a Rocky Mountain Audio Fest with great results. I was using a single subwoofe...

Re: stevan's studio system

That's quite interesting. I've never heard the Larsen speakers but I have wondered about them. I curated a system for one of my brothers that I put together as a very iconic retro system from the 60s. For that system I found him a pair of Sonab oa116 which I substantially refurbished. The Larsen spe...

Re: The heart of the Domesticaone home system

That appears to be a very nice system. I also have yet to hear the Klangedangs but Fredrik and others speak highly of them. The records leaning against the side remind me of the similar stacks in my room except mine lean against a record cabinet that I need to reorganize to fit more of them in.

Re: stevan's studio system

Very interesting looking and sounding system, Stevan! If I remember correctly the DV turntable is a custom version of a Well Tempered, which seem to be good turntables. I think you will find people here more open to different kinds of speakers and more interested in how well music comes out of them....

Re: Sagatun and Sagatun Mono

Thanks a lot Tony That sounds really interesting indeed. In a bit longer perspective, my next upgrade may very well be going MC, from Adikt/Slipsik 8 to Krystal/Entity for my Akurate-ish LP12. But that's quite costly, so doing the upgrade of the Sagatun in the meantime sounds logical. I like to do ...

I have now perfromed a fair number of the 1.7 upgrades to both Sagatun Mono and Sagatun stereo units. The improvement is significant and easily worthwhile. Currently I have four customers who I did Tundra Mono 3 upgrades for and I offered them Sagatun Mono 1.7 upgrades to make their systems as music...

Re: Lejonklou Boazu Integrated Amp

Spannko and TMV, you will be at least partially happy. The Boazu 2 will definitely have the darker, more grey logo - Fredrik likes subtlety and is pretty obviously the king of anti-bling! Anything in that chassis will have the Källa logo look going forward just as the TM3 does. As to not having the ...

This was a bit of a tough one and I went back and forth between A and B a lot. I don't care for C and found it a significant step below A and B. Both A and B are quite good and I have a hard time picking purely by tune method as there they are quite close there overall. At first I was leaning toward...

Am I right in thinking you listen to the Silvers individually Thomas?

Yes, I listened to each cable individually using a mono recording from the Källa to...
