| NAD 2600 and thumping noise Not normal for this amp...the relays are shot and need to be replaced. | |
| Help with Modified Audible Illusions Modulus 3 Clearly, someone has added some green cylinder-type devices and circled them with yellow wire. They have also added some silver and yellow ones and done the same. There appears to already be enough wire, so why add more I have no idea. Very, very ... | |
| Anyone have experience with "burn-in generators"? Light them on fire (?) | |
| Where's the trade off? I have a novel idea: Sell everything and buy an NAD C317 and pair of B&W DM 602s. My little NAD 7225 stomps all over many of today's gear in musical terms and has stood the test of time for the very reason you mention...it makes you want to li... | |
| how low can you go? 110 will not hurt anything. | |
| Spendors comparable to Harbeth C7ES3? I have owned Spendor 3/1s, 3/1Ps, 2/3s, and now 1/2Es (circa '97). The SP1/2Es are what I would take a look at (some are labeled SP1/2 but are really E versions BTW) if you want music that approaches decent volume without overloading the bass. It ... | |
| Which cables cause issues for high bandwidth amps? Man, I would not even THINK of using the same cables when you get your amp back! 12ga stranded will work fine IMO. | |
| Programmable remotes I use a Logitech w/Marantz, NAD, and Samsung TV/DVD. In 30 minutes, I had all codes downloaded off site, and it works perfectly...love it. | |
| Sablon Audio Cables Yes, I have the Sablon Molto Paella and the Largo Pancetta, which I find to have a nearly non-existent noise floor...almost a "black hole effect" they are so quiet. The only (and I mean ONLY) drawback with the Paella is that it is a bit "spicy" in... | |
| Most "Musical" sounding speaker cable under $1000 In the words of John MacEnroe, "Are you kidding me?" Please, I implore those spending soooooo much money on wire to wake up...WAKE UUUUPP. Wire is wire is wire, and all you have to do is go back and read the original blind tests performed by none ... | |
| The finest Cable Elevators you ever auditioned? I actually had real elevators (albeit on a small scale) built and installed by my electrician and have found that using them with the toilet paper works best. Sometimes when I'm not looking or am at work, my cables like to ride up and down just fo... | |
| B&W 804s too bright This may be audiophile sacrilege, but I would get a Behringer 2496EQ. Mine is completely transparent, has no effect on transients, is dead quiet, and cheap! Simply create an EQ preset in the offensive band that knocks 1-3 dB off, and you're set. T... | |
| What is a high end stereo SUPPOSED to sound like? CDC,All systems, even the uber expensive ones, impart color of some type. Hi-end is all about determining what color you want and can live with long term. As to your 3 points:1] A system will make a recording sound different than what it was monit... | |
| Almarro has poping sound, please help I had a speaker that had a pooping sound one day. Very concerned, I removed its grill to make sure everything was OK. Sure enough, it had had, well, "an accident" with its woofer shall we say. | |
| Why aren't current country albums on vinyl It's because most vinyl lovers listen to music. |
