Thanks for the info everyone.
I do have both the T3 and T3 UHC.
I really like the warmth
of these cables. So, if I go with a Hologram A
will I lose any of this warmth? |
I have a Galileo on its way. Can anyone tell me
how long they take to fully break in? I plan on
using it on my PowerCell se. If that works out,
I will try one on my Hologram D. So, I would like
to from any one who has tried a G-MPC on a Hologram D
and another PC. Not sure if mixing a digital power
cord and a T3 would be detrimental or not. |
Hello Teslaphiles,
I would like to know if any of you have had the
chance to try out the Tesla D3 or D2 digital
cables. I am currently using an Illuminati D60
on a Bel Canto Dac 3. I recently upgraded to
the Hologram D pc and I am blown away. Along
with the powercell se, and T3's my system has
so much air it would be hard to believe that there
is room for any more.
So, if anyone would like to share I would be interested
in your findings. |
I would like to hear from those of you how have
had a chance to compare the T3 UHC PC to the
Hologram A PC. |
Hi everyone,
Does anyone know if it would be okay to use a dual lead
Galileo mpc on a D2 digital ic. Is it possible that the
spare lead would pick up any interference? Is there a
way to ground the unused lead. I wont to stick with the
dual lead G-mpc so that I have the option to try the G-mpc
on future SR ic's.
Thanks. |
Tbg, can you give us a price for the Galileo Universal Cable Cells and the migs?
I am also curious how the migs are any different from
all the other isolation feet out there. They either
seem to increase sound staging and air at the expense
of diminished texture and added brightness, or the
other way around. |
So, do the migs placed under a powercell
provide enough clearance for the mpc's
plugged into the back? Currently, I am
using a book for clearance. I also have
shelving that is fairly thick glass so
would like to hear any input on the migs
compatibility with glass shelving.
Thanks |
So if the migs do not provide enough clearance for the mpc's on a powercell se, does anyone have any advise
on an alternative method. I am currently using a book
for clearance. I am looking for a more relaxed sound
without losing any sound staging, air or detail. |
Tbg, thanks for the advise, but unfortunately this is not
an option for my rack since there are support posts in the
way. So, did the increase in sound stage come at the cost
of increased edge or brightness?
Ozzie, does SR offer these jumper plugs, and are they
quantum tunneled?
Also, I would like to know if any of you have achieved
a relaxation effect using the migs. |
Thanks for the advise Tbg. Unfortunately, if I place the
Powercell se upside down then plug for the Precision pc
would be too far away. I also have a qls 6 feed by a T3 UHC,and Tesla plex but I am using this for my Niam gear. The Naim XS integrated amp and also a Teddy cap do not sound right with the Powercell. The prat suffers and there is hardness imparted to the sound.
So, what I am trying is the use of three racket balls and ankle weights on top of the powercell. Kind of a diy gingko isolation method. So, far i am liking the effect. I am getting better front to back layering and
the highs are more relaxed with more texture.
My experience with metal cones has always been an increase
in transparency in addition to an increase in brightness. |
I have actually tried the Black Diamond Racing cones
and they definitely added too much hardness in my
system at the time.
Tbg, a Teddycap is an external power supply for the
Naim XS preamp section. I am still experimenting
with footers. After trying the racket balls under
the Powercell I am now trying the much smaller
squash balls under my Naim XS. I can't believe the
transformation in sound. Much more air, wider and deeper
with more texture. However, like you mentioned Tbg
the bass is noticeably softer. Keep in mind I have
a lead shot loaded metal frame with fairly thick glass.
So, now I am really curious about mixing components
with either Ginko footers and Migs.
Has anyone noticed any added hardness to their system
with the Migs? I would think that glass would be more
susceptible. |
Airportsyndrome, can you tell us the differences you heard between the two. Did you experience any hardness to the sound? |
Rilbr, can you please expand on the Alan Maher product that you are using and what effects you are hearing. |
I have a question for all you teslaphiles.
I would like to know if any of you have compared
Stillpoints to the migs. I currently have a
plethora of SR products from the powercell se,
apex ic's, hologram A and D and the D2 with
a mix of G-mpcs. So, I am getting that wrap
around sound stage that others have talked about.
I recently picked up a set of Stillpoints with
risers placed under my dac and I am blown away by
the increase in harmonic richness combined with a
more infinite sense of depth with much more front to
back layering. I am amazed they accomplished better
sound staging while reducing glare and improving timbre.
I have more Stillpoints coming to experiment with, but
I would like to consider mixing migs and stillpoints.
I am sure this has been mentioned in this never ending
thread, but i would like to know if the migs tilt the
highs in any way.
I should also mention that my rack is a steel frame loaded
with lead shot with fairly thick glass shelves.
|
Fplanner, did you give the stillpoints at least 2 days to settle in? Did you also have the risers? When I first installed them under my dac the sound was thin and not even listenable for 2 days. This may have something to do with the fairly light weight of my Dac. I also have a second set
without the risers and they are not as nearly as effective.
So, are you also saying that the migs increase the amount
of bass in your system. After I added the Hologram A I ended up with a little too much bass for my room and the
stillpoints cleaned this up with more control.
Besides the bass question I really need to know what the
migs do for vocal timbres and weather or not the migs
relax the highs or tilt them towards brightness. Just the
one set of stillpoints with risers eliminated a lot of glare
in my system. |
Thanks for the input Tbg. Have you had a chance to try the
Ultra SS feet under any components?
Glory, pardon me for my typo and thanks for exposing my brain
spasm. Your superior grammar skills are a valuable asset to this forum. However, I am exceedingly disappointed that you did not enlighten us on the etymology of weather vs whether. |
Right you are Tbg. The StillPoint Ultra SS footers are amazing. However, they
are not a good solution for my Macbook Pro. Most importantly, what I am looking for is a platform that can provide a more organic midrange for my Macbook Pro. An increase in sound staging would be a bonus. Just wondering
if I can achieve both with the Basik. Looks like I will just have to try them when
I get the time.
Anyone who has compared the two, please do share. |
Has any one compared the Tranquility Basik to the Base? I guess it baffles me
how the price can double by just adding a few more layers and a grounding
plane. |
