| Recommendations for speakers that sound great at lower volume levels. This may be a stupid question…what cables are you using in your system?

| Power Cord & Power Conditioner Recommendations I would look for a used Shunyata Hydra 4 or Hydra 6. Get the best 2 power cords you can afford - one for the Hydra (you can pick up a used Shunyata Taipan Helix Alpha 20a for around $300) and one for the Naim. Skip the power cords for the GEs for ... | |
| Quality 1 meter RCA Interconnects under $100? I replaced BlueJeans RCAs with Audience Ohno and it was a nice improvement. In your price range. Check them out on TheCableCo. | |
| Power cord choice? I owned this very same CD player years ago. When I had it I used Shunyata Python Alpha VX and the results were phenomenal. I run a Bryston BDA-3 DAC now with Nordost Heimdall 2 power cable and I like the sound a lot. Plenty of details, low noise f... | |
| Need a DAC Recommendation. Chord Qutest is hard to beat in this price range new or used. I compared it with Mytek brooklyn DAC + and preferred the Chord for its natural tone and presentation. | |
| Help with first cable upgrade. I would give Audience Ohno interconnects and Audience Forte F3 power cord a try. I’ve used these in my system and liked them a lot. The Ohno bested the BlueJeans ICs and the Forte F3 power cord was a significant improvement over stock power cord o... | |
| Beginner looking for guidance into tube sound. Used Rogue Cronus integrated amp. Or Cronus Magnum. Buy something you can resell at minimal or no loss. If you like the Cronus you can sell your peachtree and get a used DAC to connect your node 2i and cd player and take the performance up another... | |
| What tubes are in you Rogue RP-5? Well I’m happy to report that I like the RP-5 a lot so far!I have placed the two Brimar tubes in second row and two stock JJs are in the first row. This was the first improvement. The second leap forward was when I moved the power cords around. La... | |
| What tubes are in you Rogue RP-5? @stereo5 ok got it…thanks! So basically the same as a pair of Brimar cv4003 I have in there now.Avanti…Thanks! Yes the GE don’t sound good in the rogue preamps. They never did it for me in the RP-1 and sound the same which is woolly and mooshy in ... | |
| What tubes are in you Rogue RP-5? All…thanks! I do plan to give guys at Rogue Audio a call on Monday. @stereo5 you sure you are using 12AX7? RP-5 calls for 12AU7 and I don’t see NOS Mullard 12AU7 variant on upscale website. | |
| Rogue Rap-1 to RP-5 Thanks! What amplifier are you driving with the RH-5? | |
| Rogue Rap-1 to RP-5 I fat-fingered that title…RP-1 to RP-5 is what I’m asking about. | |
| Rogue Audio Stereo 100, Atlas Magnum III anybody running them? Sound signatures? I run the ST-100 with Martin Logan Montis. The amplifier is dead quiet for a tube amp, neutral, dynamic and transparent. No harshness but no rounding of edges either. One of the best amps I ever had. No plans to upgrade. | |
| Looking for an amp that punches way about its weight and I can grow with I use Rogue ST-100 with Martin Logan Montis in my system. Preamp is Rogue RP-1. Can’t fault the ST-100. Quiet, transparent, dynamic. Have been using this amplifier for about 2 years and have no plans to switch to another amp. But keep in mind the ... |
