| Use of adapter to convert 15amp P/C to 20 amp IEC Thanks Jim for your responses. I am using a 20 amp wall outlet. So a guess I have to investigate to confirm each power cord I would like to try has a 20 amp rating to be able to handle max. load the 3.5 can deliver, even though they have the regul... | |
| Use of adapter to convert 15amp P/C to 20 amp IEC I would like to be able to use the existing power cords I have on hand (Harmonic Tech, Shunyata, Harmonix, Audience etc.)and experiment to see which one sounds best with the Balanced Power Tech 3.5. This unit has a 20 amp input IEC. I believe that... | |
| Wife approval factor? I say who cares!!!!! If she doesn't like what she sees, put her outside in the dog house with Brutus. She'll come around quick enough. | |
| New Von Schweikert Models Just when you think you've got your system sounding the best it can with your VR4GENIIISE's, Albert blows everything by coming out with a new generation that look and I'm sure sound fantastic. Why Albert why? I'm sure the VR9 room with the EMM lab... | |
| Help me tune my Theta Gen Va DAC My advise would be to leave the Gen Va stock. Inevitably, down the road, you will want to upgrade to something else, and, at that point will have problems selling the unit because you've F....d with it. From my experience, no mod's except for thos... | |
| Von Schweikert 4 Jrs, Rear Tweeter settings? I have the VR4GENIIISE. The rear tweeter adds depth and focus to the sound stage. You would adjust according to your room set up. Experiment with it. Example, if the speakers are out quite a bit from the front and side walls you may like a little ... | |
| FABULOUS guitar wanking Tvad has a good suggestion. I would also recommend "The Best of Dixie Dregs" The Millennium Collection, 20th Century Masters. This CD has 11 very good selections from several albums and will give you an idea of studio recording quality. It's along... | |
| FABULOUS guitar wanking If you are into serious guitar playing you have to check out Steve Morse. His early band "Dixie Dregs" or "The Dregs" have incredible versatility in playing hard rock to country to classical. The band also had in my opinion, one of the best drumme... | |
| Customs delays from US to Canada You may want to consider a non-gov't service like Fed-Ex. I just got off the phone with them, and, they tell me that the Customs strike has not resulted in any major delays. I wouldn't use UPS cause their brokerage fees are ridiculous. | |
| Power Cable that fits two prong connections I believe Harmonic Tech makes a cable as well. | |
| Now I Really Need a Power Conditioner? ? I have an Onan RS 12000 GenSet by Cummins. It runs on natural gas the same as my furnace and hot water tank. It's a great set up. It automatically starts up as soon as it senses a loss of power (basically within seconds). I believe mine is good up... | |

| EMM DCC2 V. EMM Transport I too am using a stock sony 777es as a transport as I await my CDSD. Isn't as smooth and resolving as the meitnerized philip's player I had the opportunity to demo but, seems to be a little more dynamic and lively. Go figure. I also have the SWM3 ... |
