| Shunyata ztron power vs cx cables... Has anyone compared the Hydra Zitron with the Synergistic Research Powercell 10 SE Mk II? I'm considering replacing my some of my 6-year old transparent conditioners. | |
| SME 20/3 or Oracle Delphi VI or Garrard 301 Wow! This thread really took on a life of its own. I re-read my 5/24 post, and it accurately reflects my experience with modded Oracle Delphi MK IV which I enjoyed for 15 years, as well as my 5-year experience with the SME 20/2 with a Graham Phant... | |
| SME 20/3 or Oracle Delphi VI or Garrard 301 Both excellent tables, to be sure. I owned a heavily modified Oracle Delphi MK IV and still own an SME 20/2 with a Graham Phantom I. The Oracle was great for its day when everything was right, but it had trouble holding the perfect setup for very ... | |

| Power Cord with great tone Pani, the best power cords I have heard in my system with extended listening are the Shunyata King Cobra CX (the current version) and the Purist Audio Design Anniversary.The PAD Anniversary is much better than the other cables I tried (Transparent... | |
| CD isolation platfroms I second the recommendation of SRA - Silent Running Audio. Kevin Tellekamp is a physicist who understands resonance and isolation. His Craz Racks, Ohio Class amp isoBASEs for my Lamm M1.2s and VR Series 3.0 isoBASE for my Ayre DX-5 have taken my s... | |

| to SACD or not Tmsorosk,Wow, your listening experience is radically different from mine with C-5 & DX-5. My DX made my C-5 sound thin and less real in my system. I do think that the DX sounds a bit more like the old D-1 in that it is smoother and less forwar... | |
| to SACD or not I have an Exemplar Denon 5910 (a Denon 5910 extensively modified by John Tucker including conversion to tube output, silver wire, better caps and clock, etc). Until very recently, I had an Ayre C-5xe which I sent back to Ayre for the MP upgrade. B... | |
| Building a music server with Ayre DX-5 Sherpa,My DX-5 is still breaking in, but right out of the box it killed my Ayre C-5xe and bettered my Exemplar Denon 5910, which had bettered everything else I put it up against until the DX-5. It really narrows the gap between vinyl and digital. ... | |

| Music server/Windows Media Center PC--possible? I am in the planning process of implementing a digital music server for my Ayre DX-5. Current thinking is to rip on my PC to AIFF using dBpoweramp, store the files on a Drobo FS connected to the network via ethernet with an ethernet connected Mac ... |
