    Contact info for Dared audio?

    Hello all - Does anyone have a suggestion on contacting Dared Audio? Messages through their main website (in Hong Kong?) go unanswered and I’m hoping someone her can direct me to a North American source (distributor, dealer, etc.) so I can get some info. The remote on my SL2000 preamp has...

    ANOTHER C26 Recapping Post!

    Hey guys! I'm relatively new to this forum. I'm trying to rehab an old C26 Pre-amp. My father, who loved Jazz bought this system in the late 70's. Its my inheritance from him, that and a good sense of humor, and a love of old Jazz. I've taken the unit apart, and cleaned all the pots and...
