Nordost QB8 Thanks Kiwi - how did you hook up your garden earth? | |
Nordost QB8 The Acoustic Revives agc-24 seems to have made an improvement when connected to the QB8, although my normal DAC is out for upgrades and I'm just listening directly from my Meridian MS600 so I can't tell the effects for sure yet. | |
Nordost QB8 My QB8 is under my credenza so it needs to be on its side. Not ideal but that's what happens when your gear is in the living room rather than a dedicated audio room. I do have a pair of Black Ravioli isolation pads under it, though. | |
Cardas: Clear vs. Golden Reference I've got an all digital rig so no experience on my end. | |
Nordost QB8 Fitzo,I managed to find a used Acoustic Revives RGC-24 and look forward to sharing experiences when I receive it. | |
Entreq Silver Tellus grounding/earthing system Msom,What order did you end up with on your QB8? I've the following equipment - what order would yo recommend I plug it into the QB8?- Meridian MS600 streaming endpoint (with switching power supply)- Simaudio 650D dac/transport- Simaudio P8 pre am... | |
Nordost QB8 Fitzo, did you find the order in which you plug in your equipment into the QB8 or QB4 made a difference?I found that my equipment sounds better with the Meridian MS600 plugged in on the opposite side of the primary earth socket than my amp and CD ... | |
Nordost QB8 "There is a big difference if you ground QB4 or QB8. I use Acoustic Revives ground conditioner rgc-24. I have also heard nice results using the grounding equipment from Entreq."How would you describe this difference Fitzo? | |
Nordost QB8 Can you share the configuration ordering which your equipment is plugged into the QB4? Did you notice differences in the sound after moving your amp from the QB4 to the wall socket? | |
Length of digital cable? Hi Paul,I would need 1.5 to 2 feet to connect my Meridian streaming gear to my DAC.I've got a 1.5 meter MIT Oracle digital coax RCA cable now.Cheers,Cam | |

Length of digital cable? Thanks Paul!I've read that 1.5 meters is the optimal length to minimize the impact of reflections in RCA terminated digital coax cables. Is this true? Or is shorter always better? | |
Cardas: Clear vs. Golden Reference Clear has better extension in both the highs and lows and is not quite as warm in the mid-bass. It's also a bit faster sounding with better leading edge transient articulation. Overall it is more neutral and "clear" sounding, with a big open sound... | |
Wilson Sophia vs Usher Mini Dancer II Just keep in mind these speakers are 35 inches deep, so be sure you are ok with them protruding way out into the room. The backwards rake angle adds some serious depth to the dimensions of the speaker, which made them unworkable in my room because... | |
Wilson Sophia vs Usher Mini Dancer II The Usher Dancer CP8571 is a better comparison with the Wilson Sophia 2. I auditioned both when I was looking for my new speakers and, if it wasn't for the size (mostly depth) of the 8571s I might just have them in my living room now - they were a... |
