Tboooe, did you buy your digital cable new or used?, tell us your impressions here as well, we do not mind at all.
I have a tube cd-player running direct to a modded krell 700cx solid state amp, looking into, perhaps krell's finest pre-amps ever made to grace my amp in the near future, my bucket list so to speak of, you guys know how this goes, Exspensive!, takes time for me to get anything it seems, that will change very soon!
Tboooe, Hi, Thanks, I look forward to what you have to say about the digital cables.
Hi Tboooe, I do not know your budget, However, If you want the last digital cable you will ever buy?, There is a Tara Labs digital Zero Gold with HFX grounding station that retails for $7,500.00 going for $2,450.00 here on the audiogon used market in mint shape, I am sure you can shoot a little lower offer and try to buy, then you could call it the day and live happy ever after.
hey, lets all be courgial here, sorry for the spelling, I'm just some dumb person that lives in alabama!, Now laugh the both of you, outlets?, these are no more than $300.00 a piece if that, lets talk about pre-amps?, like the krell EVO 2, LOL!, that is what I need that I cannot afford right now, Ha!, then it's off to the EVO 707 proccessor for two channel use?, waite a minute, how about the krell Phantom?
Sabai, great post!, I appreciate the re-posting of the review, I have read this review many times, when I think about what it just said, I do not have a nuetral to cool system, neither nuetral to warm either, kinda in between I suppose, I am hearing the most resolute sound I have ever heard in my life anywhere, cost no object, I do not expect no one to believe this statement, does not bother me what anybody believes about what I just said, I know what I hear, The wife is up getting ready for work, I asked her what thoughts are, " A Happy medium", That's what she said, and she is a musician, with a grat ear!, so about these recepticles, I have to becareful of my choice for sure here, The main reason I am going to buy a GTX-D recepticle is not for sound at all!, that's right, not for SQ at all!, I am wanting a recepticle that can with stand a 30amp load and not melt or over heat, or down right fall to pieces under these circumstances, you guessed it, I am installing my brand new 30 amp single pole breaker that is in the bag in my utility room for MY AMPLIFIER, this way, my amp will get more current, even become more effortless, and run smoother with less heat!, the soundstage will also increase in size, not that I need any of this, but for the price of admission, why not hear what happens, I can always change it back, that is the Beauty of it all, cheers gentleman.
Hey fellas, please stop being Hostile towards each other, this is not good for the thread, it is really a turn off to other readers that wanted to comment on anything audio, Thankyou gentleman.
Tara Labs has some NEW power cords that are not on their web site yet that you can inquire about directly to Tara Labs about the info on them,and they are ready to buy now!, I have all the spec info, you may pm me via Audiogon if you like to know specifics, The new model power cords are as follows, The Cobalt A/C Reference, The Omega Evolution A/C power cable, The Grandmaster Evolution A/C power cable, cheers.
please mapman, do not open that can!, However, welcome to the thread, talk about any topic you like here, no snobs to say otherwise!
David, you would have to call Tara labs and ask for Devon scott there for pricing of cables, I do know, however, it is not my place, and Tara Labs asked me not to tell prices but to refer people to them, one good reason is like any other audio out there, there is different pricing from distributors to dealers, to other countries through out the world, LOL!, I would get in way to much trouble for anything like that!, Devon is a nice guy from New york if you know how to deal with the type, I do, anyway, my next power cable is exactly the Tara Labs Evolution Omega power cord!, cheers david.
Hi calvinj, what have you decided to put together for your new system?, any ideas yet?
Melbguy1, I took a peak at you Gigawatt power conditioner/surge protector, I believe you made an excellent choice,but by adding a dedicated line and circuit, and plug the Gigawatt to that, the only way is up in performance, this cannot degrade your sound at all, whether it be subtle or more, depends on the equipment and current draw, the main thing with the dedicated line and circuit is that you have seperation from everything else in the house and system which improves your power to be ALOT cleaner, so when you use a ceiling fan, blender,vacum cleaner, etc..., the noise from these products that they introduce into you power lines that are likly daisy chained to each other in the walls cannot effect the dedicated line and circuit, thus, even useing the Gigawatt fine product on the dedicated line and circuit you will have a GAIN in improvement in SQ, Cheers.
David, all my tara labs cable models have the 8nines copper, the differnce is the dielctric in the new two top models, my models have been deemed third now, last year, was the top cables when I bought them, they had an 18 year run!, with tweeks along the way to make them better than the last few iratations of them,I have the current models of the Zero gold, Omega Gold, and standard Cobalt power cord with oyaide terminations, cheers.
Sabai, I enjoyed what you have explained about Furutech products, and you are most welcome to this thread, I would enjoy your input here on many matters, However, Please stop frustrating Melbguy1 to continue having a conflict with you on this thread, at this point, it does not matter who is wrong or right, nobody will come to this thread when they read into the conflict at hand, I know I would not stick around to long if I was the reader, I am worse than both of you with conflicts, if you do not believe me, check out the amp threads, Burmester and krell thread, this guy made out that Burmester was the Holy grail of all audio, I lost it, however, I knew when to stop and walk away, in this case here, I want all of you to stay!, just change the subject, I bet if the both of you was to share to each other what equipment you have or like, you and melbguy1 would find common ground to share the love of music and audio with each other, I want to learn from the both of you, nobody knows it all, it's wise to gain knowledge from others to add to what you have is my theory, cheers.
Hi Roccl007, Tara Labs Has just introduced some new power cords that have not yet made it to thier web site, they are the New Cobalt Reference, The New Evolution Omega, The New Evolution Grandmaster power cords, if you need specifics on the specs of these cables other than prices, you can E-mail me, you would have to call Tara Labs for pricing, Welcome to the thread.
Melbguy1, I was talking to misternice, he trys out differnt cable brands often, some good, some not to his liking., cheers.
sabai, please stop these Rants of post, this has been a very good thread, if you have problems with any one, I ask you to take it to E-mails instead of polluting this thread with negativity, please respect my wishes here, please!
Congrats Melbguy1 on the Jorma Statement speaker cables, Awsome!,I suppose I may give the Furutech GTX-D Rhodium a Spinn myself, can always take it out if it is not to my likeing,the presatation of the soundstage is my concern, I do not like a forward sound, nor a to recessed sound, a balancing act so to speak of, that in my opinion is the way live music sounds.
David, that's cool!, hey, I was really hopeing you got both the recepticles, you have solid state, I believe you could have sold the looser to one of us here for a fair price for you and them, man!, I am confused more than ever now!, go ahead and laugh, I am having more problems on this damn decision than any other, LOL!
Sabai, I have a friend here in mobile,Al that has all top of the line Shunyata z-tron anaconda everything, He listened to my Tara labs Zero Gold and Omega Gold, I almost could not make it out his house with my cables!, The differnce was not subtle!, The shunyatas are great cables, However, The three top models of Tara Labs is a different league, and so is the cost of admission,I do not have exsperience with David Elrod cables, Though, I hear great feed back here on Audiogon for the brand, I admitt, The cost is really crazy for the Three top models of Tara Labs, The Evolution Grandmaster, The Evolution Zero and matching Evolution Omega, Then third in the new line up, is what I have, The Zero Gold and Matching Omega Gold, I do not agree with the pricing, but to get what you want, you have to pay, as it turns out,you get what you pay for!, on another note, I understand your position of your fun,Really, It is Best not to continue frustrating Melbguy1 at this point, you have surely done enough!, Let's just move on!, like I said, you guys can get along, there is so much out there in audio, I bet the both of you can share some common ground if you allow for it, cheers.
Hi sabai, I have forfeited alot in my life to satiesfy my ocd for good sound, thus, the cables I own!, at times I feel crazy!, but when I listen, I have a smile on my face as big as the Grand canyon here in the u.s.a.!, really, The elrod cables are exspensive to, so I do not understand your point?
whether we like it or not, I want all of you here to know melbguy1 has a profound system!
Hi, I would like to let all of you to know, stereophile is releaseing a review this month or october, give or take, of the new Evolution Zero and Evolution Omega Tara Labs cables, should be a good read, then the Absolute Sound will be following suite of the same cables or The Tara Labs Evolution Grandmaster cable system later in the year between october and december, cheers.
ok, to all that will ever read this thread, The Review I mentioned in the post above will be absolutly in the october, 2014 issue of Stereophile magazine of the Tara Labs Evolution Zero and Evolution Omega interconnect and speaker cables, I just talked to Stereophile myself for conformation, cheers gentleman.
Hi Misternice, You can contact Devon Scott there at Tara Labs and ask him what cables they will be showing, and at what audio show, he can accomidate your answers you seek, cheers.
Misternice, man do I know the feeling of the stereo getting all my money!, you are not alone!, welcome to the endless pit of High-end audio my friend, the thing is with me, I know what i want, get it, done, I do not go the way of the ever spinning merry go round of tring many differnt cables out!, That is where all your money is hitting you hard!, alternatives are futile, you should save more money toward climbing the Tara Labs cable food chain, That is what I do, the return for the price of admission is priceless!, cheers.
Melbguy1, are you going to try both the Rhodium and Gold GTX-D outlets?, if you do, when they burn-in, give us some feed back here on your impressions, Happy Listening.
Tboooe, Hi, have you had enough time to form any substantial impressions of your digital cable yet?
Tboooe, Thankyou for your reply, However, why not try the tara Labs, The one digital with ISM on Board cable?, would be a good fit for your system for sure, comes in either 75ohm RCA or 110ohm balanced digital cable.
Melbguy1, hey, make sure you tell us here your impressions of your Furutech GTX-D Gold, congrats!
Tboooe, I can see what I can do, either on the used market, or another way, E-mail me and we can elaborate on it, however, I cannot make any promises, cheers.
Misternice, How is the Revelation audio labs precept cable sounding Now?, Do you still have the Tara Labs Onyx Interconnect?, you said in the post above you are getting two Furutech GTX-D outlets, are you getting the Gold or Rhodium?
I agree, +1 for Tboooe, congrats on the outlets, if you go jorma cables, that cool with me, let us know your impressions if you get a loan from the cable co, cheers.
Congrats Melbguy1!, david, Go to the Tara Labs site and down load the free Cascade burn-in disc, suppose to be really good, read what Tara said as to why this disc is better than most, cheers.
Melbguy1, Have you watched the youtube video of the, I believe the same vitus equipment you have being played with my cables?, The tara labs Zero Gold with HFX grounding station and the matching Tara Labs Omega Gold speaker cables I have here at my house as well?, sounds pretty good!
Hi Melbguy1, did you sale your Jorma Prime speaker cables on audiogon?, If so, I was not aware you had them for sale, You will never believe who I just talked to?, Matthew Bond himself, The designer of Tara labs cables, and Founder!
Matthew Bond is a gentleman and a incredible genius!, He sent me a profound E-mail explaining alot of how he has broght the industry of cables to where it is now, and more!, This is by far my favorite designer!
Tboooe, wow!, I have not down loaded the Tara labs cascade Burn-in file my self, after reading your exsperience here, I will get it down loaded in the next couple of days for sure, thankyou Tommy for reporting your impressions.
Melbguy1, are you leaving us?, Holidays?, do mean vacation?, How long will you be gone?, make sure you come back here when you get back, I have enjoyed your company, cheers.
Melbguy1, The brand new Tara Labs Evolution Zero interconnect and Evolution Omega speaker cables will be in the october issue of Stereophile audio magazine, Enjoy your vacation david, get back to us here when you get back, your friend, Keith.
LOL!, kudos, The opposite, you would be up all night re-discovering your recordings, Ha, Ha., on another note, I cannot understand as to why Tara labs has not posted their New power cords on their web-site yet?, The new Reference Cobalt power cord, The New Omega Power cord, The new Grandmaster power cord, I have known about these for a couple of months, then again, I knew of the New interconnects and speaker cables for a year before their introduction to the public!, cheers.
Hi Jebsmith73, yes, that listing of the Tara Zero sale was LEGIT, I gave my opinions of why it may have been removed, I am sure you can call Tara On the phone and Tara would honor the ad and sale you what you want at that pricing, Happy Listening.
