| Questionable service at Soundsmith @rviloria pretty passive aggressive to vent on A-Gon about your experience with SS. You don't like all of the responses you are receiving so then you jump ship on a thread you started...smh... | |
| Best Way to Spend ~ $2000 for System Improvement @xrayz @lowrider57 this is good advice. I would suggest having the electrician keep the 20A breaker as far away from any breaker that powers a dimmer. Also, most of the wires come out of the top of my breaker box so the electrician put the dedicat... | |
| Rogue Cronus Magnum (hum/noise) @tabascocat1994 I wouldn't say they are cheaply built either however, I have spoken with Rogue and inquired about the phono-pre. The person I spoke with confirmed that the one installed is in line with a $250-$400 external phono-pre. The person I ... | |
| Best Way to Spend ~ $2000 for System Improvement @xrayz @lowrider57 provided good advice however, I am trying to understand what a dedicated 20A line, 10-2AWG wire and Furutech GTX-D Rhodium outlets mean to my system. Thus, I am still using the stock 15A power cables that came with my Rogue Cron... | |
| Rogue Cronus Magnum (hum/noise) I have a dedicated 20A circuit which is extremely isolated and I have light hum and more hum in the phono stage. I have not read in any professional reviews where this amp was dead silent. | |
| Best Way to Spend ~ $2000 for System Improvement It’s been mentioned already but address your power situation. I just did this and while the wall receptacles are still burning-in, I have noticed dramatic differences already most notably a lowered noise floor, clear and dynamic sound, more air ar... | |
| 15A vs. 20A power cord questions @zephyr24069 thanks, I would describe the hold much as you did so I think that's normal. I would assume upgraded power cables may have larger or more robust blades which would enhance grip. I think there have been immediate improvements although s... | |
| 15A vs. 20A power cord questions @jea48 @zephyr24069 I am already hearing substantial improvement with clarity, space, noise floor and soundstage depth. I can now listen at lower levels with excellent detail retrieval which was a goal as our master is above our music room. I noti... | |
| 15A vs. 20A power cord questions Regarding the phono-pre, this is down the line. I currently only use an integrated and a turntable. Which duplex should the turntable be plugged in to?Will a burned-in/not burned-in receptacle make a difference for the turntable motor? Do I n... | |
| 15A vs. 20A power cord questions @jea48 Thanks, I am only using the CDP for burn-in. I think you answered another question though. I have two duplexes and 4 receptacles. Do I need to burn-in each of the 4 receptacles. For instance, just because i’m running a box fan in one recept... | |
| 15A vs. 20A power cord questions @jea48 currently same receptacle as the amp, although I am running the fan in the amps position. | |
| 15A vs. 20A power cord questions @jea48 good call on the box fan. I am running a CD player On the second outlet, first receptacle. The second duplex will be used should I invest in a phono pre. Lots more detail, bass I've not heard before. Why don't they burn these in at the fact... | |
| 15A vs. 20A power cord questions @zephyr24069 Thanks for the information. Please define 'initial best sound'. |
