| I wouod like a power cord recomendation that's in the budget category Was going to mention VH Audio as well, but I was going to suggest buy the plugs and cable from Chris and build your own. I’m sure Chris will give you your best option either way. | |
| Replacement for Kimber 8TC cables For the fun of it try some Canare 4s11 as it very affordable and I think you’ll be surprised how it compares against your 8TC. Even if you don’t like it you’ll lose very little if you sell them off and that’s if you don’t keep them. Out of the sho... | |
| Need recomendations for Preamp Discontinued but if you can find a Parks Audio Budgie you’ll be a very happy camper. | |
| You could work for any manufacturer, past or present... Many great names listed above, and maybe I missed some or if not mentioned I’ll add David Hafler and Saul Marantz. Living today would be Nelson Pass if I could pick only one. To have drinks with I suspect Mike Moffat would be entertaining. | |
| amp for vandersteens I had an Cambridge 840A years ago on my Vandys and it worked very well; heck before that I had an old B&O receiver and even it sounded really nice. Can’t imagine anything not sounding good on Vandersteens. Tried an older Marantz Reference inte... | |
| Replacement for Kimber 8TC cables Why do you want to replace? Are they the weakest link and if so what are you looking to improve? | |
| 3 budget speaker cable choices Can only comment on the Canare which is a great cable for the money. I would not say the Canare rolls off the top end but it is a little soft but very organic sounding. Big plus is its cost, can be purchased in bulk, flexible, and I believe it com... | |
| Would you donate a dollar to have these Members Review a Product? YMMV | |
| Disassembling BlueSound Node 2i? I found this on the Vault to open its case. No idea if it’s the same on the Node but I wouldn’t be surprised if it’s the same.“On either end of the recess in which there are the power inlet and ports, there is a ¾” by 2” (approx..) plastic cover. ... | |
| Speaker Cables For Big Horns & Tubes If you’re looking for something affordable that is very good, maybe great considering it’s cost. Canare 4S11. Very nice sounding cable. | |
| Full feature preamp $1500 Audio Research SP-9 MKII. No remote but not sure a newer preamp of today with remote and phono will surpass. There’s one on US/AM currently. | |
| Anyone open up the case on a Bluesound Vault 2? Found this, but curious if anyone has done it and did a fuse swap? I’ll probably pop the cover tomorrow and see what’s inside and will post my findings if others are curious as well.“On either end of the recess in which there are the power inlet a... | |
| Speaker suggestion between $1000 and $2000 please........ There’s a set of ProAc Studio 200’s here for $1,199. I know this speaker well and is easy to drive and sounds wonderful with either tubes or solid state. Be surprised you’d find yourself needing a sub. Just a wonderful sounding speaker that is sel... | |
| Need under $1500 preamp for my system I’ve posted it several times here that I feel a used ModWright SWL 9.0 SE is hard to beat for what they go for. The only negative thing is it may keep you up late. They don’t show up too often and if you buy it right and don’t like, I’d be surpris... | |
| Canare 4S11 Good to hear. You might be surprised how good the Canare Digital coax cable is with their own True 75 ohm RCA plugs or BNC if you equipment has that’s even better. Had one probably twenty years ago, well maybe not that many years ago but close I b... |
