| Preamp Deal of the Century TJackson, Sorry... I don't have a home theater processor right now so I haven't been able to test the theater throughput. For HT, I've been using a Sony integrated unit which contains the DVD player, amp and receiver in one box. Unfortunately, tha... | |
| Supratek Chardonnay ins & outs Lisbon, I'm not sure if he can or can not change the location of the XLR's. There might be enough room to do that. I guess I am failing to understand why you think the top-to-bottom orientation of the XLR's will not work with your Plinius. | |
| Supratek Chardonnay ins & outs Supratex? I think they have those at Happy Hour at Chevy's don't they...? Lets put this question to rest. My Cortese is at a friends house or I'd have replied by now with a photo. I believe there are a total of 6 RCA inputs which can be any combin... | |
| Preamp Deal of the Century Theaudiotweak, I believe Lrsky has devised a very interesting solution. While I can only speculate from what I've read thus far, it seems that since the lead is contained or perhaps suspended inside the "fishing worm" goo, I suspect this "lightens... | |
| What Lacquers have been used on cables with succes Abex, I think the main differentiator for C37 is its carbon content. I've heard of people applying Revlon black fingernail polish with added pencil shavings on wire who claim the results are similar to the C37. I'm not sure how flexible the nail p... | |

| Preamp Deal of the Century I've been following the latest posts to this thread with great interest. It seems like Lrsky has come up with a neat way to dampen a component however... I think the microphonics issues with some Supratek's would not be solved by a platform. Perha... | |
| Preamp Deal of the Century The new Supratek Zazen, phono only Supratek? I just got a brief mention of this from Mick. Does anyone else have details on this? I'm sure TWL is salivating right now. :) | |
| Preamp Deal of the Century Supratek Cortese - 10 Days OldIt's been 10 days since I received my Cortese and it is still breaking in - slight changes mostly - nothing too dramatic at all.My current feelings about the Cortese are similar to what they were on the 20th when I un... | |
| Opinions on why this system is uninvolving yes sir... I hear it! :) and it sounds better than it did 6 months ago. I'm getting there... Don't worry... | |
| Which cables go with what????? What an awesome thread! I love it! :) The first three posts hit the nail on the head in one way or another - that being the simple FACT that nothing we have to work with in audio is truly neutral. Everything on this planet produces a sonic signatu... | |
| Preamp Deal of the Century Tom - absolutely not. I don't think you're butting in. We're here to help one another right? I appreciate your help. Thank you.Regarding the "same problem" that Albert Porter experienced, are you referring to the woofer pumping? I thought he used ... | |
| Preamp Deal of the Century Tom, you are correct. The IO is a great phono. But running it direct to the amps was mind blowing. The only thing about that which bothered me (except for the inability to control the volume) was that my drivers were moving & pulsing like craz... | |
| Preamp Deal of the Century You're right, you're missing (i) regulator tube. The Syrah will play without regulator tubes but I wouldn't play it that way for too long because I don't know what the effects are. I know this because Mick asked me to do a test once and said, "pul... | |
| Preamp Deal of the Century Tubegrover - very true. The Syrah is a fine piece of gear and what got me leaning toward a Cortese was my relevation with the Aesthetix IO. I purchased an Aesthetix IO and compared it to the Syrah phono section and was devistated. The Aesthetix (s... |
