Has a Power Conditioner Improved Your Sound? @pmiller115 ”The funny/frustrating thing about this hobby is that one day we can interpret a change in the sound of our system as an improvement and by the next day we may change our mind and determine the opposite”, you sure hit it on the na... | |
Building Resonance Free Subwoofers @mijostyn Not only are you an avid audiophile, but also quite the wood craftsman. That is some serious work you did. Your wood shop is amazing. Congratulations on building an impressive subwoofer system. | |
PSVANE Discussion & Impressions Thread I received the Psvane Horizon tubes today. At first, I thought the order was messed up as the boxes they came in are printed with Psvane Classic series tubes, not Horizon. When I opened the boxes, that is when I saw that the tubes had Horizon etch... | |
PSVANE Discussion & Impressions Thread @hdm, For sure. I will provide immediate feedback and likewise after roughly 20-30 hours of use. | |
Audio Cables: All the Same? @fleschler Your response stands out to me as one of the most succinct and coherent responses related to the subject. I located a few Navy and NASA research papers regarding RF/EMI influence on signals and signal loss at varying lengths dependent... | |
PSVANE Discussion & Impressions Thread @ampus, I can certainly understand the defect concerns; however, that can be stated for any tune, new or NOS. I personally have had no failures with any variants, MKIIs or Art series. My failures were with NOS tubes. Also, the Octave Jubilee ... | |

Has a Power Conditioner Improved Your Sound? @jfrmusic Thank you for the response. The fact that Audioquest invested in a heavy duty power cord specifically made for the 707 is a testament to their commitment on building synergy for their products. I had the same experience with Bryston... | |

Has a Power Conditioner Improved Your Sound? @lalitk, Which power transformer conditioner are you using? I don’t think you mentioned it in your response. | |
SEEKING A NEW AUDIO RACK At that price range, You can get a McIntosh AV Rack It is taller. I don’t like racks less than 30” because of bending over and reach. I am looking at this one because I want to throw a reel to reel and another turntable. | |
PSVANE Discussion & Impressions Thread @ampus, Congratulations to you for obtaining the Octave Jubilee preamp. The Octave Jubillee has been my reference component for a while. You will have many happy listening hours with this unit. Don’t get caught up in the tube rolling merry... | |
Cullencable: XLR and speaker cables Not to resurrect this old thread, but I was trying to find the Cullen Cables web site. It appears as if their web site no longer exists. Did Cullen Cable go out of business? |
