| New expensive power cord for amp and no change in sound? Depending on the manufacturer a couple of weeks may not be enough break in time. For example, my experience with Morrow Audio cables take at least 300 hours to break in. In my experience power cords can have a significant impact depending on the... | |
| Should Amps be plugged into a power conditioner? I use a PS Audio P-12 PowerPlant on a dedicated circuit for my Pass Labs 150.8. There is a noticeable improvement in soundstage depth when in use. I tried a number of “conditioners” and all had a detrimental effect as compared to the PowerPlant an... | |
| Revelation audio labs After reading pretty negative reviews of Revelation Audio’s customer service and pretty positive reviews of cable performance, I decided that AMEX would always bail me out. I placed an order for the HDMI I2S and hoped for the best. As others repor... | |
| Experience with Intona USB 2.0 Hi-Speed Isolator Well, the swap to Curious cable did improve the dynamics so it appears the Morrow USB may not be compatible with the Intona. The VPI Brick held the Intona down (the Curious Cable is quite stiff) but I couldn't discern any effect on SQ. Long sto... | |
| Experience with Intona USB 2.0 Hi-Speed Isolator Funny, there is nothing on iFi's website about the unit. | |
| Experience with Intona USB 2.0 Hi-Speed Isolator Is the iFi Audio iGalvanic 3.0 a real thing? I can't find it on iFi's website (which seems to get more confusing by the day) | |
| Experience with Intona USB 2.0 Hi-Speed Isolator geoffkait, I did all that with the Quicksilvers and didn't hear much of a change in SQ. With regard to the Intona, there is no transformer so the brick may just be damping some vibrations. I'll post my findings in a couple of days. randy-11, I'll ... | |
| Experience with Intona USB 2.0 Hi-Speed Isolator I used the bricks on some Quicksilver amps that I had years ago. They looked good, but I can't say the bricks did much. I've got one brick on top of the Intona now with the Curious USB cable. I will let that settle in for a day or so and then take... | |
| Experience with Intona USB 2.0 Hi-Speed Isolator I recall from VPI that its steel plates from a transformer. I have several "magic bricks" that I can't say did much other than to hold lightweight components from moving. | |
| Experience with Intona USB 2.0 Hi-Speed Isolator Thanks for the post. I'm going to try a VPI brick (a piece of steel in a nice wood box) that I've had forever. I also have a Curious USB that I will try. Thanks! | |
| Experience with Intona USB 2.0 Hi-Speed Isolator Thanks thanks for your response. I will try a VPI brick to weight it down. What USB cables are you using? I'm thinking that the incompatibility might lie there. |
