ASR Emitter II Exclusive question

Ale: gotcha ;-)

Tony

thanks - thats what I was looking for. It's kinda nice having equipment that doesn't change with EVERY little tweek - that can tend to drive me crazy - always searching... I tried several different footers on the powers supplies(they are on Adona stands) & battery unit last night and with every footer there was either no difference or worse...
I just need to get a platform for the main unit - it's on carpeted floor sitting on tiles - no room in the rack.

One thing that did make a HUGE difference was using the direct input instead of balanced from my Modwright Transporter - my goodness was it better and this with very inexpensive RCA's.

Hi, I'm going to try some Fusion Audio Interlocker's RCA's soon - should get them tomorrow. I've used all Fusion in my system for a couple years now and like what they do for me the best.

I do have the gold boards - I got the unit used but with very few hrs so I'm told. I've only had it a couple days so don't have a good handle on what it's supposed to sound like but so far I'm really enjoying it ;)

Thanks
Tony

Ps68: do you recommend leaving the unit in standby all the time or? I usually listen every evening.

thanks

I've been using a KCI Silkworm II RCA - superb sounding cable. Brings a slight bit of warmth that I like(expecially coming from a full tube system). The cable is 24k gold - not plated - very detailed and rich but not slow sounding at all.

Ale, I am using the JPS with a jumper to the bass. I was going to put my ASR on top of a rack but it's just to big so I bought an HHG amp stand made of wenge rails & walnut posts with a granite insert. I was suprised to find that the HHG stand tightened up imaging a bit. I'll put some updated pics of my system up soon or just start a new virtual system.

I replaced the stock Magic power cables on the power supplies with the Kaplan HE cables with copper plugs. Very nice improvement - music is much more relaxed and smooth - still very detailed but with more warmth and absolutely no loss of detail - with these cables the system draws me in much more. The Kaplan are a very good price too - expecially in the crazy priced power cable world...

Artale, in case you didn't know but when the ASR is out of energy saving mode the battery supply is completely disconnected from the wall - of course it's not charging either but with 100hrs or so of reserve I've haven't found that to be a problem. In other words, I wouldn't bother changing the battery supply cable unless your in energy savings mode most of the time ;) I have my unit set to never enter energy mode (set to 0 from the factory 35).
