| Good Preamp for Emerald Physics 2.3 At some point I'm going to look at other options. I believe I have found a solution for the line leveling and gain/hiss issue on the active xover side. Final testing should be completed next weekend. I'll post the results on the other thread. Trav... | |
| Emerald Physics owners Update: Had the send the line-leveling unit back to the manufacturer. They did not enable the passing of the active grounding signal. This will now be configurable on a port-by-port basis. Should have the unit back in a week or so to finally test. | |
| Good Preamp for Emerald Physics 2.3 Investing 3x or more the resale value of these crossovers makes no financial sense. You would be lucky to get 25% of the upgrade cost back if you were to sell it. Interested however in feedback from those who went down crossover upgrade path as to... | |
| Emerald Physics owners I can't take credit for any DBX configuration work as it relates to tri-amping. I had Clayton build this configuration for me as part of my purchase. This all came about after review of the CS1.3 and discussions with him at RMAF 2009. This was bef... | |
| Emerald Physics owners Hey Bdhgon. Been meaning to thank you for quite some time for such a comprehensive write-up. I have a few comments and suggestions of my own but just have not had time to get around to responding. I am however actively working on my own solution t... | |
| Good Preamp for Emerald Physics 2.3 Rclassen:I have heard nothing but great feedback on the Orpheus, its capabilities and sound quality. This however comes at a hefty price when you get into the Spatial paradigm. How can a tube preamp would make a Behringer-driven CS2.3 system worse... | |
| Good Preamp for Emerald Physics 2.3 Strange thing is there is hardly any feedback out there specific to the Spaital products and our speakers. I for one am not going down that road unless I'm able to demo and compare the product in my own system. The requirement of having a MAC conf... | |
| Good Preamp for Emerald Physics 2.3 Im using a combination of an Audio Horizon tube DAC and TRL Dude preamp. The EP 2.3s are very neutral and reveling speakers. They have Titanium tweeters which can be a bit bright with the wrong equipment - but with the right combination of tube ... | |
| Curious about Emerald Physics speakers I have the CS2.3 with the DBX 260. Decided to pass on the Behringer and upgrade for room correction and better AD/DA conversion. I would not recommend going cheap with source components. Tri-amping is the way to go with these speakers. Totally dif... | |
| Audio Horizons TP 2.0 Preamplifier Hi Sherod:The Dude is going through its second break in milestone and I'm replacing a defective tube. Give me a little more time and I'll fill you in. cd | |
| Audio Horizons TP 2.0 Preamplifier Hi SherodGiving the TRL Dude a try. I just got it today. I pulled the trigger on the DAC upgrade and Dude purchase at the same time. Finally just got the Dude. Both companies took forever to deliver but as you know I'm very happy with the DAC upgr... | |
| Audio Horizons TP 2.0 Preamplifier Sounding absolutely wonderful and keeps getting better. I've got a solid 200 hours on it now. All kinds of changes occur between 125 and 200hrs. It's really fun to experience. That brightness in the highs is fading away and the sound stage has got... | |
| Audio Horizons TP 2.0 Preamplifier Cedar:I do have more results. My upgrade consists of caps, resistors and the harmonic alignment that you spoke of in an earlier post. There is no chip or power supply upgrade available (for their DAC) to the best of my knowledge.I have a solid 100... | |
| Audio Horizons TP 2.0 Preamplifier Yes indeed Bill. Likein this upgrade a lot. Just over 20hrs on it and I would already rate it as very, very positive! I can already verify two things that have been said in previous posts. Cedar's post where he talks with Joseph about harmonic al... | |
| Audio Horizons TP 2.0 Preamplifier Hey Guys:Well I finally got my AH DAC 3.0 back. The upgrade took much longer than I expected. Been playing it non-stop this weekend and want to give my initial impressions. As I indicated in earlier posts this is the Clarity-Vishay upgrade with ha... |
