| Interconnects for Pass Labs X260.8 @moto_man when I tried the Alpha V2 it was on the XA30.8. It did something strange to the high frequencies that irritated me. I was planning on replacing the AQ Hurricane with it and kept the Hurricane. However, the AQ H didn’t work as well with t... | |
| Interconnects for Pass Labs X260.8 @ghdprentice how would you describe the sound signature of the Transparent Ultra? | |
| Interconnects for Pass Labs X260.8 @moto_man I’ll add the Shunyata to the list. Although I wasn’t in love with their Alpha V2 power cord. May be the interconnects are better. @duckmanst3 yes the AU24SX are on the list. @jjss49 thanks but hard to imagine these cables approach the ... | |

| Question about Shunyata Power Conditioners Hiss is usually caused by components, especially tubed. And if you have very efficient speakers and powerful amp you’re going to be in for an unpleasant surprise. Hum is typically caused by faulty parts in one or more components or a ground loop.... | |
| Streamer/dac …. Organic/euphonic sound signature Bricasti M3 with Network option (roon ready) is very organic/natural, full bodied and rounded sounding but it isn’t colored or euphoric. If you want colored and euphoric, add a vintage tube preamp with a Class A solid state amp or a tube or Class ... | |
| The weirdness of it all I’m trying one out now but it’s broken in. I need two for the amps. Was just wondering about the break in. I remember my 55n with FI-50 NCF plugs took well over 500-600hrs. I lost count and then it just all came together. | |
| Roon….The Gordon Knot of concierge musical services? Every time my iPhone or iPad can’t find core it’s because the device is on a different network (I have several). Once I switch the remote device to the network where the Roon core resides, it works fine. My core runs on mac mini. So OP…check if yo... | |
| The weirdness of it all Yes the DPS-4.1 with FI-50 NCF is awesome. @celtic66 how long is the break in process? | |
| What are your favorite songs or albums for illustrating a deep soundstage? Nice setup @blisshifi ! Glad you were able to squeeze a bit more out of it. Speaker and listening chair positioning is critical. Looks like you got room acoustics covered as well. Very cool. | |
| What are your favorite songs or albums for illustrating a deep soundstage? Buena Vista Social Club “Chan Chan” The Stimulators “New Years Eve on The Water” from their Unplugged at Kunstalon album | |
| What are your favorite songs or albums for illustrating a deep soundstage? Care to share what you did @blisshifi ? | |
| Amp suggestions for Goldenear Triton One.r speakers Kinki Studio integrated should be on your list. I have not heard it but it’s in your price range and has power to drive those GE speakers. | |
| Upgrade Preamp from MyTek Manhattan II? @theph0xx21 find a used Pass XP12. I compared it with running my Bricasti M3 DAC directly into an amp. While the M3 sounded great snd has a decent built in preamp, the XP12 was better. | |
| Cable differences -- power, interconnect, digital, and in what order? After I ran two dedicated lines, I actually prefer the sound of my Pass XP22 preamp when connected direct to outlet. It wasn’t the case prior to implementing the dedicated circuits. |
