Can a better power cable make a difference if NOT plugged directly into an outlet? @lalitk You must be a dream customer for a saleman. To explain my comment, the pangea has everything I look for in a power cable, but it can usually be found for less. You want to expain what features you look for in a power cord that are so ... | |
Good Suggestions for Tube Amps under 6k @decooney I didn’t see @jchiappinelli ’s comment. thanks for answering for me. Yes, there are a lot of circuit bords inside this amp and in my opinion, it doesn’t sound like a cleanly wired simple point to point. A lot of that is probably the push... | |
Can a better power cable make a difference if NOT plugged directly into an outlet? I think you'll have trouble improving on the Pangea AC 9 SE. | |
Yamaha Amplifier Warranty Issues I don’t remember the last time I had something fixed under warranty, if ever. I have had infant mortality in a TV set, which I returned. Why do things fail so often for others? But, given that they do, I prefer an amp I can repair myself. So I on... | |
Is there a USB B to USB C Adapter Sell your cable and buy the right cable. the adapter will never be of the quality of the rest of your cable system. | |
Hearing protection and Music I do a lot of machine work and wear hearing protection. I don't try to listen during the noisy part. I've never found sound enabled hearing protection to provide good hearing protections I use good over-the-ear protection, and if it is really ... | |
Puritan Ultimate Power Cable For $700 you get only 12 awg. they claim that is good for 41 amps, which it probably is. but all the electrical codes say less, usually 20 amps. So a bit of marketing hype, turns me off. Are you really looking at buying 7 of them? I wouldn'... | |
Star in your lane @vonhelmholtz pretty sure it's a secret. 😊 | |
Interesting Power Cable Experience @dill yeah, I see your point. Clearly the power supply in this CD player is needy. | |
Chord Cutest or Wadia 321 cutest. | |
Good Suggestions for Tube Amps under 6k @charles1dad AD1. Built around the EML tube. | |
Interesting Power Cable Experience I had a similar experience with a Sophia baby amp. 13 lbs and only 8 watts per channel. I thought a 14 awg power cord would be plenty. Bass was poor. A friend suggested a heavier power cord so I did and bass was immediate and strong. This ... | |
Airplane Seat Power Ground Loop? I don't know the answer but your first world problem made me smile. And reminds me of having to hold the TV antenna when I was a kid. | |
Good Suggestions for Tube Amps under 6k @gregjacob I have never owned a primaluna but have heard a couple. I wasn't impressed, I concluded it was the amp, but I have to be honest that it was other peoples' systems. for a true test, it would be much better to drop one into my system so... | |
Good Suggestions for Tube Amps under 6k @boxertwin12 I have a Decware ZMA, a UFO and am on the waitlist for a 300b. In the mean time I’m having a custom amp made which will probably replace all of them. but they are hard to beat. I would recommend the 300b but there are so few out there... |
