| Power Cord Advice Do yourself a huge favor and try a Hidiamond P4. Exemplary power cord. There is one on the Gon for sale. | |
| What Pre/Pro do you recommend? @Jdub39, I had a Emotiva UMC200 that sounded killer compared to my old oppo 105. I did sell them both and bought a 103 strictly for video HDMI. | |
| Golden Ear Triton 1 what front ends match well Mofojo, do you run a subwoofer with your triton ones? How is the speed, accuracy and bass in the speakers sound compared to a sub? I recently sold my sub(SVS PB13 Ultra) I had with my Casta Model D8's(recently sold) and purchased Casta Model C's. ... | |
| is oppo only bluray w/ hdmi in, stereo analog out? I've heard of it too but I haven't experienced one. The thing with the 105 is its Saber 9018 processing chip sounds so extended with so much resolution the midrange and bass sounds thin. The 103 is similar but uses the Cirris logic chip. I just us... | |
| Modding Synergistic Research MPC to Galileo status I've heard a lot of word about the Bybee Quantum Signal enhancers and if you install 10 + within your system($1000ish) it would take it to greater levels. I'm awaiting for some to be available. Even your tv will benefit from them......... | |
| is oppo only bluray w/ hdmi in, stereo analog out? I have a 103 at present for HDMI video only with audio from a Lexicon MC-1 through its expansion port bypassing all processing for 2-channel and it eats the 103. The 103 is just ok for spinning discs. I used a CEC TL51XR belt drive cd for music li... | |
| Emotiva XMC-1 owners.... I am going another route to try an Audiozen Noah reference dual mono power amplifier with seperate dual mono power supply. I think looking at this piece and its quality parts it may mate well with my Casta Model C's. | |
| Emotiva XMC-1 owners.... Kratos amp sounded ok but going another route. Combatability and too many issues definitely. I need to figure out which 2 channel amplifier I should use. | |
| Wall Outlet Oyaide, Furutek, Wattgate, and others @Audiolabyrinth, where do I get these magnetic zinc screws? | |
| Upgrade DAC/CD transport? @Rzado, I've had a cec TL51XR and it was really good. How would it compare to the CEC TL-1 you owned? I presently have a Lexicon MC-1 which I am using the co-ax expansion ports on rear which bypasses all processing. The sound competes with dacs wo... | |
| Wall Outlet Oyaide, Furutek, Wattgate, and others I have a Furutech wall frame and cover plate on its way to me. My Furutech GTX-D rodium is on 300ish hours now. Can't wait to ice the cake. | |
| What are your favorite speaker finishes? I had Casta model A's with a brown grain gloss. My new Casta model C's will be in the same finnish in a birch wood. Absolutely stunning look. Very rich and earthly and the feel is very smooth and silky. | |
| Processor help Go to the Emotiva lounge. There you'll find a lot of feedback and discussion on the XMC-1. Good luck. From what I've read, I'd go for the Emotiva XMC-1. | |
| Akiko Tuning Stick AC -- It IS Magic Nglazer, I know cable jungle too. I used to have a full 5.1 home theatre set-up with Synergistic Research cables. Now that's a jungle. Mpc's, powercells, power cord mpc's, bullets, more mpc's, power strip, power cord, mpc-power cord, bullets &... | |
| Shunyata vs. Audience vs. Bybee? I have the latest Audience Adept aR6 TSSD and it is the best I've heard. I am considering other avenues and have to part with it. If interested e-mail me. I'll tell ya all about it. |
