| How do I connect my speaker cables to this Coda Amp I changed the binding posts on my upper set to posts w/o the safety cover. Pop the top and get out your soldering iron and Bob's your uncle. Otherwise you could try an adapter on the spade that is a banana as Erik suggests. | |
| Considering switching to XLR cables, @salc IMO, your targeted cables are not commensurate with the high level gear you have. If I was a smart guy I guess I would have long ago tasted the quality cables I am now getting to. For a painful journey see my systems page. I suggest Wywir... | |
| "audiophiles listen to their equipment" When evaluating my system for faults or opportunities for improvement, I listen critically, typically to well-culled tunes with ranges of frequencies. When exploring new music I want something that touches me in an emotional way. And if it strikes... | |
| Any Nashville enthusiasts? Now at 18 "members" and GTG's planned for the next 3 months. Join the fun. | |
| Gain level on a REL sub @sns His response is right on target. The wiring is most likely the issue. I just put 2 T/9X's in yesterday and while they were in route I verified the proper wiring scheme to use. Here is what customer service offered: "Thank you for reaching o... | |
| Shunyata Ethernet Cable User Experience- Delta vs Theta I have been using the Shunyata Sigma USB or about 5 years now. I have not found any cable that bettered it. I am curious about the Snake River Boomslang USB. As far as ethernet, I should probably look to more research, but grabbed an Avanti here a... | |
| Sound proofing floor Are they "hearing" the bass or midrange/treble as well? It doesn't make sense that all frequencies are passing through unless the whole floor is hitting a resonance with your music. It's pretty hard to stop the long bass wavelengths. Isolating you... | |
| Snake River Audio Power Cables - Best Unboxing I picked up a used set of Mamushi Signature IC's and tried them out for an hour tonight. They are very impressive. With more time I might see them edging out my Synergistic Euphoria X xlr's. More to come. | |
| Sound proofing floor Mass loaded vinyl is the shiznit. I have used it to soundproof a ceiling from the living room above and I have used it to soundproof the family room below my room. Just lay it down and put your vinyl flooring right over it. Not cheap, but very eff... | |
| Furutech 's Project V1 Power Cord.....question. Sounds like a wonderful cable, but as was pointed out in one review, the Synergistic power cables cost 4 times less and provide fantastic results. I use SR PC's throughout my system now and am mighty impressed. But you got me interested so I poke... | |
| Treating the ceiling and floor, who else has had great results? I have treated ceilings many times, even the floor in front of speakers when in dedicated spaces. I kinda had to do the ceiling in this room with the speakers so near a first reflection point: https://www.audiogon.com/systems/10635#&gid=1&am... | |
| Can you do anything to make power tubes last longer ? I use a variable speed cabinet fan at the lowest speed to pull heat out of my ARC preamp. Can't hear it and it certainly does not hurt. Of course, no data to say the tube life is being extended. But, I only use the system an hour here and there d... | |
| The best plug in filter ever! @gavin1977 Not even close. I use Purons and Main Streams with the PSM. There isn't enough real estate in the Puron style devices to do what the PSM can do. My PSM has been a mainstay of a quiet system for almost 5 years. Add the Verifi's in paral... | |
| I feel for you Good thread. I kinda knew Carl’s skillset from years here and other sites. Well respected by me having worked in science and technology myself for 4 decades. @awise1961 We may have dabbled in some of the same aircraft. My dad was a tinsmith by ... | |
| No one talks about Purist Audio Design cables. I've had Museaus, Venustas, and Corvus XLR's and an older pair of Venustas triwire speaker cables. They were all very good cables. I would say neutral category. I still have a 4 meter Venustas XLR Diamond rev set for sale. Switched to many other b... |
