+1 @jsalerno277 It amazes me how much better my gear sounded after investing in noise management. The more I invest the more the gear keeps getting better! I have a CAD GC1 and GC3 and 3 Akiko Corelli's in addition to dedicated lines and a Shunyata Denali. I also have a PS Audio P10 that runs the digital stuff. And I have taken all SMPS's off my dedicated lines. I had SMPS's on the P10 and it absolutely shredded the sound quality from my DAC and Music Server. After that upgrade you cables. If you can't remember the names of your Wireworld cables it didn't hurt enough when you bought them. I think really good cable prices are ridiculous but at the same time performance follows price. The difference between $500, $1000 and $1500 cables is evident and discernable with noise management. I believe a lot of the benefits of upgrading gear is missed without addressing the above. |
+1 @rikkipuu I never explored the grounding devices that are on the market but it is all a logical progression from good cables and power conditioning, to dedicated lines, to improvements in grounding to realize a reduction in noise in the electrical signal that I personally find exhibits itself as grain and hash that once removed results as richer timbre and improved liquidity, silence in backgrounds, and space evident between images. I should probably add ground improvements to my next system upgrade. |
