| 3.5mm to RCA cable suggestions. Excellent point on the TS jacks AL.Just a side question...is there any advantage to upgrading power cords on powered monitors at this level? I was thinking something like Pangea AC 14SE MKII.Thanks again for taking the time to offer your experienc... | |
| 3.5mm to RCA cable suggestions. Here is the 3.5mm/TRS also:http://www.musiciansfriend.com/accessories/kirlin-original-y-cable-3.5mm-trs-plug--2-x-1-4-in.-mono-... | |
| 3.5mm to RCA cable suggestions. Al, thank you so much for the very helpful info. I had to read it a few times to understand it as my electrical expertise isn’t that polished. I was considering a headphone type tube preamp like this:https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00A2QMAI2/re... | |
| 3.5mm to RCA cable suggestions. Well I’m going to stick with unbalanced. If I end up going straight from the DAC to the speakers, the 3.5mm to RCA cable will be fine (I can USB or BT into the DAC). I don’t think I’d see a benefit with balanced on one end there. If I add a small ... | |
| 3.5mm to RCA cable suggestions. Thanks for the advice,Those don't look too expensive for my modest desktop needs. I'll only need .6m anyway. It sounds like you have a nice setup. I'm rolling with Mackie MR8s and soon an AudioQuest Beetle DAC/BT adapter (when it's released). I mi... | |
| 3.5mm to RCA cable suggestions. I think I’m going to go this route with a 3.5mm to balanced:http://www.musiciansfriend.com/accessories/hosa-3.5mm-male-trs-to-dual-xlr-male-stereo-breakout-y-ca...I have the options of balanced, unbalanced and 1/4" TRS on my monitors. Which is the... | |
| Sorbathane under granite slabs for speaker bases? Thank so again for the replies everyone,Does anyone know what Herbie’s soft fat and thin dots are made of? It seems there is a lot of advice here to avoid sorbathane but use his products. Wouldn’t they have a similar effect? I don’t mind supportin... | |
| Sorbathane under granite slabs for speaker bases? Thanks ghost,Are you using spikes as well? I think I'm going to roll with just the granite slabs directly on the tile shelf w/spikes under the KEFs. | |
| Sorbathane under granite slabs for speaker bases? Dill, so I should use something under the granite? | |
| Best floorstander at $2k or less? Thanks for the input,I figured there are a bunch of choices and no definitive targets so I'm going to keep trolling the used market. I like my KEFs so I'm in no hurry. | |
| 3 channel watching and 2 channel listening Sorry to piggyback here but I have a Yamaha 1060 AVR that I'm using as a preamp with HT ability and a Parasound A23 Halo for my mains. I also have a Bluesound Node 2. Doesn't connecting the Node via coaxial and controlling the volume via it act as... | |
| Power cord replacement on a Node 2? Seems like a lot of people are getting excellent results with low cost Pangea power cords with other components. I'm not sure spending big bucks always equates to serious changes. | |
| Node 2 and Yamaha AVR, go digital or analog? Thanks Steve and everyone else for your input,I’ll give both a try. I’m hoping the D-60 sounds better as it’s longer than the Silver Sonic cables and would work best where the Node 2 is going. I'm trying to use what I already have in my cable stas... | |
| Power cord replacement on a Node 2? Thanks for the reply,Thrilled meaning it made it worse or no improvement? | |
| Bluesound Node 2 vs. Auralic Aries Mini I just went through this decision and finally decided on the Node 2. It's basically splitting hairs though from what I read. I leaned towards the Node 2 as it has Roon support if I go that route, MQA support and it seems a larger customer base in ... |
