Doug Schroeder Method, Double ic @taras22 and @teo_audio1+ for emphasis. Nice reminders | |
Doug Schroeder Method, Double ic Think post-its. Pretty simple. Adhesive-backed paper, just not super-glue adhesive. | |
Doug Schroeder Method, Double ic I have evaluated a 6-ft run Dual Canare StarQuad assembly terminated with Canare RCA connectors in place of my 2-meter run of Teo Audio Ultra (single) IC’s between the preamp and powered ATC monitors (see setup below), wherein the assembly include... | |
Doug Schroeder Method, Double ic Tuffy, I am certain the Teo Audio folks have evaluated their current lineup of IC’s in all permutations. It would be insightful to hear their impressions. | |
Doug Schroeder Method, Double ic Keep in mind that an RCA connector does not have a characteristic impendance of 75-ohms. Use a BNC connector if you want a connector with a true 75-ohm characteristic impedance. Problem is that most home audio transport and DAC separates have RCA ... | |
Doug Schroeder Method, Double ic Digital coax connections use 75-ohm cable; digital AES/EBU connections use 110-ohm cable. In principle, the both of these paralleled assemblies should have lower than optimal characteristic impedance. (To answer your specific question, the dual as... | |
Doug Schroeder Method, Double ic So my HAVE, Inc. contacts sent the correct 2-ft run of Dual Canare StarQuad 110-ohm IC assembly terminated with AES/EBU (XLR) connectors. I compared it against the 2-ft run Dual Canare StarQuad 110-ohm assembly terminated with Canare RCA connecto... | |
All Quiet on the Oppo front? @mental. Oppo offers a lot of features unrelated to playback of discs. And, apparently, a lot of folks want to spend even more money modding it to sound better. | |
Power conditioner or outlet? I like plugging all audio gear into a power conditioner having some electrical surge protection. Nothing audio-related gets plugged into a naked wall outlet. | |
All Quiet on the Oppo front? I’ll pass. Oppo will be obsolete soon enough. | |
Doug Schroeder Method, Double ic IMO, assembling a set of paralleled Teo Audio GCII's with splitters yielded a tremendous boost in my overall SQ over single run GCII's. I used the solid Monster products from a China company on Ebay. Perhaps a better splitter would further improve... | |
Doug Schroeder Method, Double ic For anyone interested in the HAVE, Inc. products, please understand that they are a custom order house. You order it; you're stuck with it. (No refund-oriented, audition/trial period permitted.) Order from other folks if that bothers you. I would ... | |
Class D is just Dandy! +1, atmasphere. | |
Doug Schroeder Method, Double ic I decided to evaluate the recent digital cable HAVE sent to me. The cable is a 2-ft run Dual Canare StarQuad 110-ohm assembly terminated with Canare RCA connectors, wherein the assembly includes two paralleled Canare DA202 IC’s spliced together in... | |
Dynaco parts for a PAT-5 Ahhh...The Dyna PAT-5 and Dyna ST-150 were my first separates. I used to restore Dyna ST-70 tube amps in the 1990’s. There was a Ohio supplier of Dyna parts, but I’m not sure they are still in business. |
