| Remodel causes 60Hz ground loop Thank you. I will pass this on to my frustrated friend. Cheers | |
| Remodel causes 60Hz ground loop Indeed there is a coaxial cable connection for his cable. No satellite. I’ve been researching that aspect and you may be on to something. | |
| Best Speaker for classical music ATC SCM150ASL Pro 15 inch 3-way Powered Studio Monitors. Go for broke. Scale, dynamics, attack and timbre. | |
| Budget Tube Preamp ($2000) Manley Jumbo Shrimp used and upgrade the tubes through Upscale Audio. Patrick Cullen Crossover II PC to complete the deal. | |
| Active Non near field loudspeaker +2 for ATC. In regards to the ATC SCM 40s listed, those first showed up in Mill Valley, CA and now in Florida......a curious thing.I run that exact speaker and it is stellar. That price is terrific. The Gaia footers are a must along with great ... | |
| I knew room treatments were in my future. GIK suggestion is good. Know why they test flight airplanes? Because you never know until it’s real. Good starting point, but then you will need to start experimenting for YOUR system and YOUR ears. Enjoy the ride. | |

| Thinking about getting a R2R DAC Mojo Audio Mystique’ V3 + whatever number. It is a killer. As mentioned in previous posts, it just gets it right. It is freakishly dynamic, live, detailed and quick. The immediacy is scary. Music appears out of blackness and washes over you. | |
| Need more slam! Help! You’ve one of the most polite audiophile sounding speakers on the planet. Not a bad thing, they are just that. A sub may get you there. I’ve lived where you are now. I added a JL 10” sub and got closer. Then I opened the gates and went active... | |

| Dueland Cables Correct, the Duelund wire is quite good, overlooked and cheap as hell in the land of galactically stupid expensive wire. I've only run the bare end speaker wires on Penaudio Cenya, Merlin Black Magic monitors and several other quality speakers. ... | |
| ATC SCM 40 mk2 vs Salk Song3 Encore jjss49 is correct in assessment of the two brands and obviously a bit of a cheerleader for the active ATCs. So am I, but then it's not my system to listen to. I've the ATC SCM 40A and have unabashedly touted their talents of immediacy, dynamics ... |
