| Phono cable advice. So no go on the DH Labs Air Matrix over the other options? I’m thinking of going that route between the phono preamp and turntable and staying consistent. | |
| Phono cable advice. Wolf I missed the Jelco. I’ll check that one out too. Where can I buy one online?Thanks! | |
| Phono cable advice. Thanks for the great replies,I'll checkout the audiosensibilty ones too. How about another pair of DH Labs Silver Sonic Air Matrix? I could find a used pair in my range? I'm also eyeballing Belden 8402 w/Switchcraft RCAs. I'd just have to add a gr... | |
| Phono cable advice. Thanks for the input. So the only difference between the first generation and MKII are the plugs? | |
| Power conditioner or outlet? How does everyone feel about plugging their sub directly in to the wall outlet (or surge protector only) and skipping conditioning? Also, I have KEF LS50 Wireless speakers with amps built in. Should I go direct into the wall/surge protector with t... | |
| Phono Stage for KEF LS50 Wireless. Ideas? Recommendations? I'm curious of what you chose here as I'm up against a similar decision. I'm also wondering about the general purpose preamp so I can run multiple sources into the KEF's single RCAs? My main two inputs would be a Node 2 and a turntable. I want a a... | |
| USB phono preamp quality? Any thoughts on the Parasound Zphono w/USB preamp or any other USB capable phono preamps? The added USB and extra inputs can come in handy. Am I giving up much in sound quality to other phono preamps in a similar sub $500 range or am I splitting h... | |
| New Bluesound's Node 2i What are the upgrades over the Node 2? It’s hard to tell from the Crutchfield link. Mostly AirPlay and BT changes? What about the DACs? I have a Node 2 I’d consider upgrading from. | |
| News: Qobuz Hi-Res platform's debut is scheduled for this October. See Qobuz Links below Any updates on the US release? I have the app and things look good. | |
| Best phone preamp for around $500? Thanks,I forgot about the JD9. I will check into it. I'm probably going used so I can get as much preamp as I can for my range. | |
| LS50 Wireless with turntable need a ground wire? Thanks for the replies,Yes, sorry I am going to need a preamp. This is my first time attempting a turntable with the KEFs. So do I just buy a separate ground wire for my turntable (Pro-Ject Debut Carbon DC Esprit) to my preamp as my RCAs (DH Labs ... | |
| Optical digital cables? Thanks everyone,I just bought a 36" Lifatec and am looking forward to it with my LS50 Wireless speakers in my new setup.I appreciate all the excellent replies. | |
| Optical digital cables? I might be overthinking the length I need for the Lifatec. I can get by with 20" but was going to get 24" for a small cushion. Now I’m thinking what if I move things around later, should I get 36"? Any disadvantages in lengths this short? It’s onl... | |
| Optical digital cables? Thanks everyone,I'm going to go with the Lifatec. I don't expect any sharp bends outside of the back of the KEFs to the back of the Node 2. I think I'll be fine with 20" but will go 24" for a cushion. | |
| I pulled the trigger, I bought OHM Walsh Micro Tall Speakers... I haven't listened to Ohms in years (80s) but remember them sounding awesome. Definitely 3D and room filling...the perfect party speaker. Very cool speakers indeed. |
