| Positioning Components in Rack For Best Sound If you must stack, use symposium fat pads (they are light in weight and work great and you only need three). Provides isolation and it gives you space between the components. | |
| Wi-Fi Fidelity? Wi-Fi doesn't degrade the signal, just make sure you have a strong wifi signal. The dropouts would be very annoying. | |
| Which music server to buy? Acurus, I do feel that if you use a PC, you need to keep it out of the sound room, if you wish to approach X03SE levels. PC's are pretty noisy, unless you go for a fanless, flash memory type computer. The squeeze box (or other options) allows you ... | |
| Which music server to buy? It comes with an iPod touch (for remote-you can see the album art) - it uses squeeze softwear. Check out their website. http://www.soundsciencecat.com/MusicVault.html | |
| Help VPI SDS Issue I keep my motor on all the time (upgraded motor w.flywheel, TNT Jr., superplatter) and the sds power's up my table. No issues (and sounds great). Motor took too long to get to proper speed leaving the sds on and using the power switch on the motor... | |
| Cartridge fresh out of the box But, when he plays mono, the level is the same. Couldn't one of the grounds on the cartridge be loose? | |
| Which music server to buy? Acurus, I haven't heard the Wadia 521. I think with the proper dac, you can equal (perhaps better) the sound of the X03 SE. Expensive, but sure that the D05 or D03 would get you there. Also have heard that the Berkley Dac is a must listen. My Benc... | |
| Which music server to buy? I love my squeezebox but w/o a PC, check out The Music Vault. I'd grab one if not for already being set up. | |
| Favorite Female vocals that give you goose bumps Thanks for the recommendation on Melody Gardot. Pleasantly surprised! You guys and gals should pick it up. | |
| Ayre CX7e win Hydra 2 It would be a good match. My suggestion is to use shunyata power cables as well. The hydra works GREAT with Suunyata Power cables. There are quite a few here on 'gon. I would try to not go below the Taipan model, if your budget can swing it. I wou... | |
| Why can't my 32" Sony LCD show component out? Your DVD output may not going to component out (assuming your cables are ok-check the other DVD outputs on the TV). It may be going to s-video out or composite out (I gave a buddy a Toshiba DVD player and had the same problem). Check the manual or... | |
| Weak Link It was Rainmaker. I heard them at The Show a few years back and was awed at the room filling, great sound, detail, width and depth to the soundstage. They were on my list for speakers for my PC system. I ended up going with the 685s for two reason... | |
| samsung52" vs sharp52" I didn't look at the Samsung, but the differences between the two Aquos is that the more expensive one is the newer model, (Advanced Superview). | |
| samsung52" vs sharp52" Just look at the picture set up properly on both sets. Other than a Pioneer Elite, Runco or Fujitsu, not much beats a Sharp Aquos. The Sharp (If it is the Aquos) will BLOW AWAY the Samsung (I have an Elite, Aquos and Samsung).Make sure the Aquos i... | |
| Phono cables Cardas makes phono cables with RCA's on both ends. I just got a pair for my VPI and love them (I think they were $550). BIG upgrade from the VPI cables ($200). |
