| Good power cord vs Killer power cord? I'd say use your best cord from conditioner to the wall. But do experiment, I agree with Tvad, as every system is different. | |
| Virtual Dynamics Clio, cable company offers a trial. It is a $600 cable though. That's the downside. But what it did with my Bel Canto DAC2, I can not even describe in words. I am not imagining this since several people heard the change. Biggest change this cable ... | |
| Virtual Dynamics Clio, as I said, I am not familiar with their analog ICs and speaker cables, but I am extremely impressed with the excellent performance of their digital ICs. I don't know what digital cable you are now using with your Audio Mirror dac, but with m... | |
| Virtual Dynamics The VD cables are great stuff. No doubt. But why they use these RCA connectors? They are pretty loose. I think I would prefer locking WBT instead of the Cardas. Just my opinion. | |
| TRL Audio Mirror D1 Signature I too had bad experience with modded player(Sound Odyssey Music Hall CD25). That's why I am hesitant to mod anything else. The only thing I would mod without thinking twice is my McCormack DNA-125 amp. And that is only because Steve McCormack is t... | |
| Zu Wax and Acoustic Zen satori I tried Zu Libtec and then I bought the Satori SHotgun and returned the Libtek back to Zu. Never looked back. No comparison. The Satori just sounds much more involving and is more transparent than Zu Libtec. And Libtek is more expensive than Wax..... | |
| Virtual Dynamics I am currently auditioning a Virtual Dynamics NiteII digital cable(courtesy of Cable Company) and I've never used a better digital cable. It is expensive, yes, but is also outstanding. Beat by a very nice margin everything I used prior: AZ Silver ... | |
| Mixing speaker cable for Bass & Treble Acoustic Zen Satori Shotgun or Audience AU24 bi-wire, both are 2 separate runs, will probably do a better job. Plus, using these will remove all doubts about impedance and frequency mismatch. Just a thought. Unless you do have to use AQ... | |
| TRL Audio Mirror D1 Signature good. thanks. by the way, I compared Audio Mirror D2 to Bel Canto DAC2 in the same system. This would be a nice topic to discuss, but I am a lazy typist. | |
| TRL Audio Mirror D1 Signature Well, I wasn't talking about D1 in particular(I don't own it). I am actually thinking of modding my Bel Canto DAC2. I don't know what I will end up doing yet, but this is one of the possibilities I am considering. thanks. | |
| TRL Audio Mirror D1 Signature Clio, thanks for your comments. I appreciate the offer to come by and listen. I am in NYC so it won't be possible. I just wanted to get a feel on what to expect from TRL mods. I did talk to them and they explained what the results of the mods shou... | |
| TRL Audio Mirror D1 Signature Can anybody describe the signature or what to expect from the TRL mods? Is there a common quality of sound that is associated with the TRL mods? Did anyone have more than one piece of equipment modified by them? Just curious what can be improved b... | |
| Breakin of Marantz SA8260 SACD player If you read Stereophile recommended components, they mention in the beginning of the CD player section that all SACD and DVD-A players are recommended based on their ability to play their respected media, not the redbook cd. So, as far as redbook ... | |
| NAD S200 vs. McCormack DNA125 McCormack. | |
| Audio Research Reference CD-7 I doubt it Audiotomb. CD7 was not meant to be a replacement of CD3. But, I would like to see that you are right about this though. |
