| I would appreciate your advice on rectifier tubes Thanks very much. | |
| Which DACs are known to be sweet/rich/relaxed? I would like to give you advice that is outside of the expensive solutions. I too have been chasing the perfection of music from a digital source and purchase an Uptone Audio EtherRegen switch lowered the noise floor but kept reading positive repo... | |
| Hook Up Wire for Pre and Power Amps Thanks for your recommendations! I have learned that solid core wire might have an advantage over stranded. The 845 tubes I have in my amps draw as much as 1000VDC so will require a lower gauge for sure. Correct? | |
| AC Regenerator With respect to all of the posts before mine, I'll try not to restate other observations.I started with a P300 for my 2 channel system and then purchased a Power Plant Premier for my home theater system. The howl it made trying to handle a plasma... | |
| Upgrading power cord.. proven upgrade? or crap? Very interesting and thought provoking posts. I only want to share, after spending far too many thousands of dollars on gear upgrades, that power and room acoustics are the most important aspects of building a great sounding audio system. We will ... | |
| Why do digital cables sound different? To my ear and eye solid silver wire sounds best for digital signals. You only need to see what a solid silver HDMI cable does for a plasma TV to know. The irony is that silver is the worst conductor for analog signals (at least to my ear) | |
| Need "warm" interconnects advice All of my auditioning and purchases over many years tell me that staying away from silver gives you a chance for warmth. If you use multi-strand wire then it should be Litz and if you like the warmth of Cardas and want better detail then think abo... | |
| Power Cord Wall to Conditioner I have just finished a long testing of power cords. My PS Audio P10 power regenerator sounds much better with a quality power cord connecting it to the wall outlet. It doesn't make sense to me considering that the AC is regenerated into a new pure... | |
| Audio fuses I use Walker Audio SST Contact enhancer on every contact including fuses, tube pins, interconnects, etc. It makes a nice difference. | |
| Audio fuses I agree with Audioman58 on the Hi-Fi Tuning Supreme fuses for digital and phono sources. They preserve the harmonics better which involves me more but are not as dynamic in pre and power amps. Recently I experimented with Audio Horizons' Platinum ... | |
| Modding Synergistic Research MPC to Galileo status I took a flyer on Michael's mod for the MPC attached to the Tranquility Basik platform. At the price I wouldn't be bothered if the mod didn't work as well for this application as it did for cables. I was pleasantly surprised by the increase in tra... | |
| Review: Audio Horizons RTS Coupler Tweak Follow-up: I made the assumption that my PS Audio PerfectWave Transport would not benefit from an RTS Coupler because the matching DAC has a Digital Lens jitter reduction system built into it that should make the transport mute. I decided to exper... | |
| lessloss blackbody If I hadn't had a positive experience with the Lessloss DFPC I might have suspected that the Blackbody was "Black Magic" in the same category as pebbles and rocks. Instead I purchased 2 of these units and have tried them in many different places w... |
