| I can't decide vr4jr's or Acoustic Zen Adagios? Heard all three you mentioned, including the VS and the AZ head-to-head about a month ago. It was absolutely no contest- the Adagios blew the VS away. I had actually gone specifically to listen to the much-heralded VS, and probably would have like... | |
| Replacement Fuse's - What are my options ???? Here's the info I received from Furutech's USA office (they have no US distributor yet):Dear Howard, Thank you for your interest in Furutech product. Our suggested retail price for Furutech Fuse 6.3A 30mm is $50.00 / piece. Currently we do not hav... | |
| Neutrik aftermarket cable for Rel Strata III Has anyone compared these aftermarket cables against each other? Thanks,Howard | |
| Your best picks for 2006 Best Speakers under 4K. I heard the Cremona Auditors a couple weeks ago - nice monitors! I believe Sonus Faber is using modified ScanSpeak drivers (or at the woofer) in those, but not sure.I was quoted $4800 new, though. | |
| Double your pleasure with same cable throughout? Jim, If you ever decide to look at cables again, I recommend you try Gregg Straley's "Reality Cables." Since my posting to this thread I have experimented with first his speaker cables, then interconnects, and now have my system completely wired w... | |
| Replacement Fuse's - What are my options ???? Tbg,Thanks for the tip on the fuse. We had an unexpected visitor tonight, which precluded me from testing the fuse. I'll run the test tomorrow night, though.I went to South Texas College of Law in Houston for the short period of time it was known ... | |
| Silver or copper fuses for amps and cdplayer ? Griss,Take a look at the thread "Replacement Fuses - What Are My Options?" for detailed and varied thoughts. It's currently under the old threads with new posts in last 24 hours section, as is this thread.Howard | |
| Replacement Fuse's - What are my options ???? Geoff,Great question. I suppose I should flip the fuse around to see if I hear a difference. (I can't believe I actually just wrote that. Then again, I didn't believe the fuses would make any difference in the first place.) The info sheet that com... | |
| Replacement Fuse's - What are my options ???? I bought an Isoclean fuse to compare against the HiFi Tuning fuse. I seriously doubted there would be any difference.Last night I sat down and spent three hours listening to several tracks twice - first time with one fuse in, second time with the ... | |
| Best used amp in the $1500 range I second the McCormack Virginia series amps (DNA-125 or DNA-225.) Remarkable sound for the price, and if you ever want an amp that will stay in your system for many, many years you can send it to Steve McCormack for modifications. | |
| Recommendation for interconnect and speaker cables Gregg Straley's cables. They beat cables that cost 3 times as much in my system as well as several other people I know.http://www.realitycables.com/ | |
| Running Two REL Subs off One Amp - Possible? Antonio, I currently run my ACI Titan from my RLD-1's second set of outputs, but the REL subs are specifically designed to be run off the amplifier using the high-level connection rather than the low-level connection from a preamp.I enjoy my syste... | |
| Running Two REL Subs off One Amp - Possible? Thanks, Mark. I'm running separates - McCormack RLD-1 preamp and DNA-125 amp.Now that I think about it, I believe I read in an online owner's manual that the recommended method for two subs and one amp is to use the line output on the first sub.Ho... | |
| Your best picks for 2006 Best Speakers under 4K. Acoustic Zen Adagios, hands down. They're now $4300, but when I heard them they were $3700. They're an absolute steal at either price. | |
| Acoustic Zen Adagio, How Good Are They? Robert,The transmission line terminates in an opening on the front of the Adagio, so I don't see why they wouldn't excel in a 14x14x10 room. My new living room will be 20x14x10 and I'm certain they'd be magic in that relatively small room. |
