| Quantum Science Audio Thread ‘Lumin U1 & Paul Hynes SR5 PSU. I am very surprised, but Yellow and Purple did not bring significant changes’Thru my time of upgrading fuses starting with the Hi Fi Tuning Supreme and the SR reds I have noticed the Streamer is the least sensit... | |
| Quantum Science Audio Thread At first install I was surprised how good the Light Blue sounded. Usually fuses are rollercoasters the first 100 hours or so. Definitely a nice pace and very enjoyable. After a couple weeks I swapped the SR Orange back in and just more lively and ... | |
| New Cary DMS 700 600. The 600SE I believe is a CD player/dac | |
| Quantum Science Audio Thread I went back to the SR orange over the Light Blue in my Rogue RP 7 tube linestage. At first I thought the Light blue was better. Gave it a couple weeks. Switched the Orange back in. Much more sparkle and detail. Reinstalled the blue for a few days.... | |
| Hans likes Cary 700 I have a 700. The remote can run the whole show. Not that it used a lot but it works. Really nice 1 box solution. I will spare the superlatives as everyone’s system and preferences are different. The integrated SD player is the best sounding of al... | |
| Townshend Springs under Speakers I just ordered 16 pods today 4a’s 4b’8c’s for my Streamer/dac, tube linestage and mono amps. I love the Podiums so if I can get 50% of that improvement I will be ecstatic45 day trial figure I have nothing to lose. Currently use Combak Harmonix fo... | |
| Boy, Oh Boy! Towshend! I am a big fan of his older stuff. First Circle probably being my fave. The new album is a little more structured than recent stuff. Not crazy about the first tune but the rest is pretty nice. Does sound live, especially with the podiums. Live rec... | |
| Boy, Oh Boy! Towshend! Your speakers fit perfect!! The details as you mentioned. I have numerous hi Rez album rips that I thought where pretty quiet. Now surface noise and the pops and clicks are much more defined. Got to take the good with the bad. Check out Pat Methe... | |
| Boy, Oh Boy! Towshend! Reach out to the pros at Townshend. They will guide you. The footprint of the Podium is pretty large so you may want to go with the 4’s if in fact they will fit your speaker. | |
| Review of Rogue Audio RP-9 preamp Love my RP-7 with NOS tubes. I have only one source and it’s hard to justify an upgrade. I know it sounds much better than my previous MicroZotl and Modwright anniversary preamps. | |
| New silversmith fidelium cable Without a doubt the Fidelium may sound more reserved at first listen. I was coming from Audience Au24 SX ( 3 times the price) and Cerious Technologies Matrix.My Personas are very revealing in the upper midrange and treble. Perfect cable for my sys... | |
| My swarm sub system is in The Absolute Sound !! Thanks for the kind words | |
| My swarm sub system is in The Absolute Sound !! Yes on the Coffered ceiling. The soffits where left from the garage frame and just moved up the cross ties to create a nice slope. Lot of planning but it came together nice and I was able to help with a lot of projects to keep the cost down. The a... | |
| Boy, Oh Boy! Towshend! ’That's good to hear, I'm looking forward to receiving my Podiums (waiting on shipment from UK).’size 4? The beauty of the Townshend that it makes every one of your upgrades better. From a fuse to a power supply. The Podiums really should be the ... | |
| My swarm sub system is in The Absolute Sound !! Would love to have Audiogoners over for a session. I am in North East Metro Detroit off Lake St.Clair. Get tuned up in the Tequila chairs and its starts sounding even better.Speaking of Tequila, did anybody ever try Michael Jordan's Cincoro Anejo... |
