| What stereo equipment do respected musicians listen to? @bigkidz - Interesting.. Which model? I used to have their old FM 611, 25yo. changed some dried caps and all—no problem. But their integral modules (casted) if needing replacement must be send back to factory (/supply parts). Some guy (audio buddy... | |

| The Best Preamp is no Preamp? Since Enlighten Audio Design (EAD), Theta days in ‘90s.. fast forward to dCS Verdi/Elgar/Purcell/clock to more recent days’ Accuphase 2 boxes, and friend’s Vivaldi stack, MSB Select (complete) double power bases, pre module etc, Esoteric Grandi... | |
| The Best Preamp is no Preamp? No preamp is better than Bad preamps. | |
| Power regeneration - good idea? PS audio? Oh I am also still using my 17yo PSA PPP (out of regular ac line) in bed room to plug my big Sony Oled plus Marshall blutooth speaker into—even my 10yo nephew could appreciate the picture and sound quality improvements. My old P10 fared even bette... | |
| Power regeneration - good idea? PS audio? “So at the end of it all what is the point of this PS audio regenerator?” If like me where night/day AC voltage irregularity/variance coming in is significant enough (>5%?), it matters a lot (soundwise), more their stabilizing capability I ... | |
| Power regeneration - good idea? PS audio? My amp a 260W~8 Ohm, sounds better plugged into a P20 than wall direct (dedicated line). Best to try what work best for you. | |
| Anyone using Luxman m900u with Audio Research Ref6 “Sometimes synergy a little off”—as in shouty and confused imaging at times/when pushed?If so, and if you currently have everything plugged into P10 (including amp), you might want to try separating amp elsewhere first. Ime, P10 is insufficient to... | |
| Can flexible power cables sound good? Running a couple/various PS regenerators for past two decades..Have PS AC12 cord–balanced warmish sound with enough detail/resolution that’s good value for the money, yup they’re rather stiff.Shunyata HC/XC range are better—cleaner, more refined, ... | |
| PS Audio Stellar P3 Vs Audioquest Niagara 3000 @uwikkkz Hi, yes contact/consult Mr.O..Known him for 25yrs, bought some of my earlier stuffs off him. SF Strads, Soulution, couple of Magicos amongst others, and some nice cablings too (Kubala, Synergistic etc). Although he no longer today carries... | |
| PS Audio Stellar P3 Vs Audioquest Niagara 3000 Inserting a good preamp will most certainly help in dynamic and musical involvement (though no experience with said Mac C22).PSA regenerators as well^, but PPP model and above. Even so, lumping front ends together with amp/s is not advisable when ... | |
| Accuphase A65 vs ... Not specifically A65, but had A200s (for 7yrs) which was from same cluster/released time as A65 I believe.1) Compared to latest A250s, I noticed a little better bass and resolution (perhaps from lower noise floor) of the A250s. The improvements ov... | |
| Amp-preamp mismatch?? result higher volume. What is rthe cause?? High gain preamp to high gain amp problem.When so, best to have gain adjustability in either to ensure an optimal volume range (my pre’s at 10 - 2 o’clock).Otherwise, you can get attenuator cable made (-6db or -12db) to go in between i/c from pre ... | |
| NAD C275BEE break in period? Receiver vs separate Amp = added *i/c.Enough to account for the differences you are hearing.Give the unit (and i/c) some time to settle~couple days.Then can play around a bit *there to achieve the balance you looking for. |
