| Help me pick a new pair of speakers If I was in your shoes, I would simply upgrade the components with better parts. That would be more on an impact than a new pair of speakers, etc. Happy Listening. | |
| Is Mark Levinson still considered up there with the best of the best? They have new products out that are designed by a few top designers today. The integrated amp (list price I think is $9500) is a really fantastic sounding unit. One of the best SS units I have heard. I believe that the people who designed this ... | |
| 2, Which speakers to exhibit in audio show? listening through ear buds, #1 was way more open, separate, and natural. #2 was smooth but blocked the open sound, less separation, etc. Should have used my tube equipment to solve all of your problem! Happy Listening. | |
| Why do preamplifiers have so many capacitors? All capacitors are not the same and resistors also. Just rebuilt a very high end DAC with better capacitors. Improved the openness, separation, dimension, speed, clarity, tone, etc. Close to 50 capacitors were replaced. All other responses abo... | |
| Quest for an external Dac has resulted in me way down the rabbit hole What do you think you will gain from spending $1000 over the Rotel CDP? You would be better off sending me the Rotel for an upgrade. $1000 can sure buy much better parts like Audio Note capacitors and resistors, a good choke, etc., that you won'... | |
| Can moving wire location at circuit breaker reduce hum? Sounds like there is something else on the line or something with the ground wire. Have you tried a cheater plug yet? See what ese works when just that line is working. Could be like a refrig, or something else cause the problem. | |
| Why Is Hi Fi Gear So Darn Expensive? Again, Price has nothing to do with sound. Can someone make something as good or better for less, why sure. There a differences though depending on who makes the product. I imagine no body here has tried to manufacturer anything and sell it in ... | |

| Cable recommandations @soix - from our experimentation there was not loss of sound quality. We compared this to many higher priced cables so were $14K per foot and this was as good or better. The thing that worked was separation of the pos and neg wires. Happy Li... | |
| Cable recommandations OK here is the deal. make your own speaker cables. This will compete with the higher priced cables. Mogami (forget the model number) but it has 4 wires in each casing. Strip the outer casing off. Use two wires to make the positive run and a se... | |
| For classical music lovers best amp for large orchestral forces? I am curious how you determined that the Pass was the issue. Compression and separation can come from each source. You can always have the units modified. It can be as simple upgrading resistors, capacitors, adding filter chokes, etc. Power supp... | |
| All New Yamaha NS-2000A Loudspeakers Are On The Market @mrdecibel thanks Mr.D, if you are ever visiting the NYC NJ area let me know Our. listening o.om is open. | |
| All New Yamaha NS-2000A Loudspeakers Are On The Market @mrdecibel yeah I was biting my tongue when I wrote that. IMO you have not heard the Vandersteen speakers until you hard them on my equipment. That is when I heard what they were meant to sound like. Happy Listening. | |
| All New Yamaha NS-2000A Loudspeakers Are On The Market And I care because??? I can get a nice pair of Vandersteen model 5A speakers used for less money. | |
| AudioQuest Hurricane and PS Audio AC12 unless someone here has your component, their recommendation is basically useless. Every system is different. We have proven this over and over and over again in many systems. |
