| Preamp Deal of the Century IKKyu2, I have noticed the same image problem you mention with my Chardonnay. There do seem to be an emphasis to the right, but the funny thing is that I do not notice it when playing my tuner, just cd. I checked my speaker position, but that was ... | |
| Preamp Deal of the Century I finaly took a look under the hood of my Chardonnay.I decided to change the feet for some Bright Star Isonodes, so first I open up the power supply, did some damping and Deoxit spray the power switch, made it feel much better, not as dry and chea... | |
| Preamp Deal of the Century Grounding Hum!! Never had it, never heard it.If you had it or heard it, something wasn't right in your system. | |
| Audioquest King Cobra or Similar Cables TplavasHow am I cable denier, I never said cables don't make a difference. Belden is a cable also in case you don't know.Why don't you give it a try, if you have less than four thumbs. | |
| Preamp Deal of the Century The only disadvantages I see to seperates is maybe the extra cost of the unit, extra cables and maybe a extra shelf on the rack.Other than that its all better. There is less on one chassis, less heat, less interferance, if something goes its easie... | |

| Preamp Deal of the Century I got a pair of Sovtec KT66 and tried them in my Chardonnay.They made a big improvement in the soundstage, they just opened it up wide. They are really nice, looks great also. | |
| Best DVD for my System Why buy any now, wait for Blu Ray. | |
| Preamp Deal of the Century Dbarger, that just was my impresion of it. It was like not even the gain controls could control it, the microphonics were so bad. | |
| Preamp Deal of the Century Thanks for the tip on the Sovteks, I will order a couple to try. | |
| Anybody else wanna pull their hair out ? Not just the wires, but having two or three manuals open in front of you, tring to figure out why something won't work in one system, when it works fine with the same hookup in another system. Not to mention the remotes.I just got a flat screen an... |
