Manufacturers Are they still accepting orders? Maybe they are out of business. Remember counterpoint? Mike had the website up for three years even though he was not doing any upgrades or repairs.Go figure. | |
Has anyone compared old to new Audioquest Cables??? @ieales - I understand your posted position. Changes may be system dependent. My equipment is custom manufacturer by my company so I know that no body here hears what I hear. My question was asking based upon ones own experience what did they h... | |
Has anyone compared old to new Audioquest Cables??? What models of the older top of the line cables are the model names? I don't really know them.Two more questions:Between the Robin Hood and the WT models. I understand the wire thickness but how much better are they in reality?Last with my Vande... | |
Has anyone compared old to new Audioquest Cables??? @steven0713@desert38Both of you jumped from Rocket Series to WT right over the Robin Hood series - any input on why the jump? What and were did you hear the improvements over the Rocket Series with the WT series.Thanks. | |
Has anyone compared old to new Audioquest Cables??? @tvad meaning buy and try some used models? What model name of AQ cables would you recommend that I search for? | |
Downside to R2R Ladder DACs? Plenty of electronic components will drift over time. You probably won't hear it s it is gradual. In direct comparison if you had a time capsule and kept a new one 20 years later to compare, you may be able to hear the difference. Not all R2R b... | |
Downside to R2R Ladder DACs? Since we are an audio manufacturer that builds DHT R2R dacs, this is absolutely false. That would mean every component would have the same issues since everything has resistors in them.Dump that sales person. There is no superiority in r2r dacs,... | |
I blew up my receiver. Now what? Most likely took out a few capacitors and resistors and probably the output device. Hard to tell. Pop the top and see what the damage is. Check the transformer. Good luck. | |
The most criminal practice in the speaker industry revealed!! Keep reading Sorry I am a little tired and probably not clear on your post. It seems you are saying that without measurements one cannot tell which speaker is a better speaker than the other and relying on your ears is not a good way to judge this.First, I don... | |
Member Almarg passed away last night It is with the deepest sympathy that I write this message to Almarg's family. I know how hard it is to lose a loved one. Find strength in one another and surround yourself with dear friends. Remember all of the good times in your mind and in you... | |
Shootout of Nos 6sn7 tubes for the price of these tubes they offered a more tube sound than the new JJ Tesla 6SN7 tubes I was using. More musical, more dimension, a nicer more relaxed sound in direct comparison in the preamp. Have not tried them in my hybrid tube power am... | |
What makes a DAC so expensive? Chassis, parts used, build design, etc. Most DACs are of similiar design using a circuit board, chip set, cheap resistors and capacitors. If you are paying $3K or more for something you should know what does into it.Happy Listening. | |
For anyone who moved from tubes to solid state — a question This IMO is a general question as it does not apply to all amps SS or Tubes. My old Lafayette tube amp will probably out perform most SS amps. My Class A amp sounds different and each has advantages the other does not. I prefer this tube amp mys... | |
