| REL .LFE input For what it's worth I have a REL Studio 3 paired SF Guarneri Mementos powered by JRDG Model 7's modified by JRDG to Class D. At the time I set this up REL Support provided me with a "Digital" Neutrik cable. No hum and great sound. A couple of y... | |
| Dynamic range - effect on different speaker cables - even very high quality ones I hesitate to comment on this post as it seems to have devolved into a lot of name calling instead of thoughtful reasoned discussion. I agree with kalali that the answer to the OP has to do with the recordings. Am curious if the OP used the same... | |
| Thoughts on vintage Accuphase I owned an E202 and T101 for 35 plus years. Still have the T101, Great Tuner but doesn't get a lot of use these days. Never had any problems with the E202. While it was an integrated amp, you could also use it either as an amp only or pre-amp o... | |
| Advice on Setting Up System After Storage Agreed Bob,As Tom Petty says, "The Waiting Is the Hardest Part", but the spouse will set the priorities. With respect to Casey Jones, I always enjoy giving my kids a start by playing the Power & the Majesty first thing in the morning to get th... | |
| Advice on Setting Up System After Storage Hello Dave,Agree with your advice as well. Most likely we will be busy unpacking everything else before I even get to the system. Will probably take a couple of days. Biggest issue will be placing the speakers and finding the right spot for tuning... | |
| Advice on Setting Up System After Storage Hello Elizabeth,Thanks for the note and advice. Agreed, the system has not been in storage for a long time. Biggest issue was moving during the winter and the travel over the mtns. Needless to say things got pretty cold in the trailer according to... | |
| ZYX R 1000 Sigma X - thoughts, comments, reviews Thanks Mark for your response. Couldn't agree more. Room acoustics and set up are key. Also agree that I am not concerned with having a $10,000 cartridge. My whole philosophy with the upgrading has been what does it sound like, will I notice the d... | |
| ZYX R 1000 Sigma X - thoughts, comments, reviews Couldn't agree with you more on Gandalf's wisdom. Yes, it is all about enjoying the music! And I have been at that. Never really appreciated how good audio equipment could sound and by that the music produced from said equipment could sound until ... | |
| ZYX R 1000 Sigma X - thoughts, comments, reviews Thanks again Dougdeacon,You pretty much answered the way I thought. Is there ever an end to upgrading one's system? Somehow this audio sickness we all have seems to be a self fullfilling prophecy. We upgrade one component only to have to upgrade a... | |
| ZYX R 1000 Sigma X - thoughts, comments, reviews Thanks for the response Dougdeacon. Read your review of the UNIverse and it sounds wonderful. Question for you is depending upon price, would you go for a UNI or a Sigma. Audiogon classifieds have the UNI listed at $7,500 with selling for $5,000. ... | |
| Jeff Rowland Model 7 & Model 5 Upgrade Hello Guidocorona, Can't say for sure as to whether or not Jeff included that within the modification. I know that he was using the latest updates in ICE Technology within the modification. He may very well have included the power correction logic... | |
| Jeff Rowland Model 7 & Model 5 Upgrade Couln't agree with you more Sirspeedy. The whole process and communication with Jeff was, in my experience, unprecedented. Your comments about the sound are right on. The voicing of the whole system has been greatly improved, and it doesn't matter... | |
| Jeff Rowland Model 7 & Model 5 Upgrade The answer to your question about the cost of the upgrade is multifaceted. Remember these were the first Model 7 amps to be upgraded by Jeff. In my discussions with him before the upgrade he wasn't sure what the total cost would be. He wasn't sure... | |
| Jeff Rowland Model 7 & Model 5 Upgrade I originally purchased these amps for two reasons. Like yourself I like the sound of tubes and these amps, to my ears, and the reviews that they had received, came closest to it in a solid state design. I wanted that sound without worrying about t... |
