PS Audio BHK 250 Power Amp owners? Isn't a Magtech a Coda cousin? I have a Coda 8 Continuum and it has to be the best amp (of 35 owned) in 20 years. I'd love to swing a Coda 16. When I bought my Wilson Sasha's at Albert's shop we auditioned them with the BHK's and I absolutely ha... | |
聖HIJIRI Users thread I now live in Gallatin, but drive into west side of Nashville every day for work. Moved down from Owensboro last year. Come on over and critique my gear. I'm trying to get Bill to come over as well. | |
Why a dearth of some brands on the used market? I have budgetary numbers I am comfortable with, typically based on what I may have paid for a product in the past that I want another of. When I see prices beyond what I deem reasonable, I pass, unless I am feely spunky that day and "lowball" some... | |
聖HIJIRI Users thread Yes. In heavy flux as I try to optimize sound. | |
聖HIJIRI Users thread Colin loaned me a Nagomi pc 2 weeks ago. I tried it first feeding the Puritan per his suggestion, but I did not really hear much change. More anticipatory excitement telling me I would hear something. But I don't think there was much there there. ... | |
Silversmith Fidelium Eventually I will try a pair of Sternklang to see if they can dethrone the Fideliums. Flat ribbon to flat ribbon comparison. | |
Aric Audio's Motherlode II line-stage keep me up all last night @yoby I purchased many, and I mean many, butcherblock slabs over the years for isolation on the Adona racks and on the floor, etc. I just put small rubber bumpers or equivalent Vibrapods between the steel and wood. No heat build-up on my compo... | |
Aric Audio's Motherlode II line-stage keep me up all last night @zm I had a Sachs and really liked it, BUT, for the life of me I could not eliminate the noise it sent through the tweeters. I tried every trick in the book and eventually gave up. I had even wrapped it in Sapele Pommele veneer as I had enjoyed ... | |
Aric Audio's Motherlode II line-stage keep me up all last night I love mine. Have Linlai Globes in it. Check out my system page. I need more up-close photos of it. | |
DAW vs Alexia 1 vs Sasha 2, descending order of $$ I had a similar conundrum. I sold my Sasha 1's in 2022 and auditioned the DAW's and Sabrina's in Tennessee where I was headed. I definitely wanted the DAW's and at that time the dealer would not take my Sasha's. So I sold them and moved to Tenness... | |
New Pass amp X250.8 Try risk free a NRG The Five power cable from Canada. I stumbled on them and they have transformed my system by reducing all noise on the AC lines. High-Fidelity | Audiophile | NRG Custom Cables | Home Audio | Canada | |
Power conditioner wire gauge? Serious issue Buy a Kill-a-watt meter and put your mind at ease. You'll most likely find that you are pulling way less amps than the wire can handle and have a very high MoS. Several years ago I measured my entire system through one of these and was just under... | |
Power cord length No worries. I have a 27 foot cable from the rack to the amp out in front. Electrons are quick!! ha | |
TV screen behind speakers When you go to First Reflection websites such as: Locating areas of first reflections (acoustic.ua) They indicate the center position between the speakers as a reflection point. So covering that up when listening critically is important. | |
Any Nashville enthusiasts? "Ha! I am here in Franklin, TN for another year still!" Awesome. I am about done with my room. Who wants to help me heave my Alexia's up a flight of stairs? I also need to check out the Sternklang cables at Colin's. I've been very busy wit... |
