| need new rack with isolation in mind if you don't need adjustable, then SolidSteel makes some great component tables with isolation cones under each shelf. Very good vibration control.Musidirect.com carries SolidSteel and so does cable company. | |
| How many us a Line Conditioner with a Big SS Amp Joe, I'd be curious to find out if Running Springs Audio would work good with Pass. Please post a reply if you get a chance to try it. I'm running the X250.5 direct without Hydra. I think I would like a conditioner/protection for this amp without ... | |
| How many us a Line Conditioner with a Big SS Amp 01-08-07: TvadThanks for explaining what you meant by "crapped out". Usually, this term refers to mechanical or electrical failure.or an uncontrolled bowel movement.....but that's in another forum.:) | |
| Options to replace Supratek Chennin Pre Aesthetix Calypso, Audio Research Ref2 could be within your budget, BAT 31SE. | |
| ARC Pre + which SS amp? I second DNA-500. However, one note of caution, with the 500, the input impedance of this amp is rather low at 10kohms, so careful matching with a tube preamp is a must. You can't have too high of a gain or you won't be able to finely adjust the v... | |
| Postive or Negative Results -Big Amp & Conditioner Jmcgrogan2, I don't know why, but you sound kind of agravated.I always speak highly of Shunyata products. I think they make very good stuff. I'm not trying to nix the whole product line. I am surprised to see you are taking this rather personally.... | |
| ARC Pre + which SS amp? Rwwear, can you be more specific as to which Krell it is, what speakers, etc? | |
| ARC Pre + which SS amp? I use LS-25 with Pass Labs X250.5 and I think this combo synergizes extremely well. Also, there is a nice difference between running ARC balanced or single ended. Balanced is always better. I tried.I see you use B&W speakers. FWIW, I found the... | |
| McIntosh C1000 tube pre vs. ARC Ref 3? most people who like McIntosh do not like ARC and vice versa. The house sound is different between the 2 brands. Hantrax,To say one is better than the other is absurd until side by side comparison is done with a knowledge of one's sonic preference. | |
| Postive or Negative Results -Big Amp & Conditioner It's very simple. It depends on the amp. You have to try it to determine if it works or not. That's all.Example:I had 3 different McCormack amps where the Shunyata Hydra was an improvement. Now wih my Pass Labs X250.5, Hydra slows the amp down and... | |
| Exemplar Audio DVD5910 You hate writing a comment like this? I think this is great that you posted your opinion. It helps people in their research and prevents some from making a mistake.There seems to be almost like a cult for some modders(not poking at exemplar direct... | |
| Shunyata PC's - Taipan/Python Helix Teck5, are the cords you are testing fully broken in? Also, as your system gets more resolving with each upgrade, the shortcomings of your 13 year old cd player become more apparent. Just something to consider.In this case, don't shoot the messeng... | |
| beautiful piano recordings: solo or small ensemble If you are open to classical music suggestions, here's a solo recording of Liszt piano sonata in B minor performed by Markus Groh. Beautiful music and awesome recording quality. I highly recommend it. http://www.markusgroh.com/index_2.htm | |
| Which CDP Provides Weighty Presentation $2k ? Audio Research CD2 would fit your criteria. Absolutely not thin or lean. Very extended and not bright. Bass is awesome. Lays out an excellent soundstage. | |
