| Difference between Balanced Audio XLR's and Digital 75 ohm XLR's @elizabeth Thank you always helpful !! | |
| Nasty Static on Vinyl @tooblue These are brand new albums that are doing it on. And the Amp is muted or even on another source. I put my ear to the album and hear no pop but its coming through the speakers like crazy. | |
| Difference between Balanced Audio XLR's and Digital 75 ohm XLR's @elizabeth Yes my mistake it's a Wireworld Starlight 7 Digital 110 Ohm cable. So not good for balanced inputs on an amp right?For AES EBU usage? | |
| Nasty Static on Vinyl @elizabeth That thought did cross my mind. I recently changed my cart to a HanaSL and the blue cartridge wire connector fell off. I was able to insert it into the connector and work it onto the cartridge but I'm going to check and make sure that i... | |
| Nasty Static on Vinyl Lovan rack on brick fireplace hearth. Gonna go through the grounding tonight. I initially had problems with pop when stylus hit the needle even when amp is muted . Now it's escalated to static pops and clicks as vinyl plays even when amp is muted!... | |
| Which power cords help ameliorate digital glare/grain/digititus? I have found that power cords can help with noise and EMI I found the biggest improvement in my digital library was my DAC.

| Proper Ground for Tonearm and Turntable @three.. so presently not using the plinth ground at all. Just the TA1000 tonearm cable ground to the phonostage. Very weird because even with everything muted or even a different input selected on the amp I still hear a pop. Could it be static? | |
| Replacement for Vandersteen 2ce @bigkidz Since I started driving them with the Krell 200 watts per channel they sound much better. Yes I will speak to JohnnyR and see what he thinks. Maybe some new shorter cables will help. My old 15ft TaraLabs RSC Primes are probably hindering.... | |
| Replacement for Vandersteen 2ce @kalali okay I will square them off. Yes Sound Anchors with lead shot. Wood floors. | |
| Replacement for Vandersteen 2ce @mr_m The CE’s were purchased in 92-93 new from Ocean State Audio boxed for quite a few years and recently brought out. Did not like the old parasound HCA 1200 amp that powered them but my Krell has improved them significantly. Room is 16” wide x ... | |
