| HRT Streamer+ Pretty much the reason I still haven't gotten in to computer audio. It's all still a moving target. Prices will continue to drop as more manufacturers realize the potential market for affordable USB audio. At CES, I listened to Mike Hobson present... | |
| About speaker cables.. I use the OCOS cable Rrog speaks of and while I never compared my 5.5m length to a short OCOS run all I can say is that the music sounds darn fine to me. If the cable is doing some thing wrong due to the long run I can't hear it. Same was true whe... | |
| cassette deck enthusitast pt 2....sleeper 2 header The Nak 480 is definitely a sleeper. I still have mine after all these years. | |
| About speaker cables.. Depends on the speaker cable design. Some cables are designed so that they can be used in longer lengths. | |
| HRT Streamer+ I heard the Streamer + at CES and quite frankly this is an amazing USB solution. The sound was very good even in a system set up in a hotel room. I'm not a big fan of USB, but between this solution and the M2Tech Hiface things are looking up for a... | |
| PC for Running Springs conditioner I bought mine (orininal, not R version) from Alan Kafton at Audio Excellence AZ. I believe they are also available from Revolution Power. Also, Brian Kyle at Xtreme AV is an Oyaide dealer and can get them for you.I would be very careful about buyi... | |
| PC for Running Springs conditioner I was told at CES that the new version of the Mongoose cords supplied by RSA are no longer made by Cardas. If you like the Oyaide outlets you will like the cable too. | |
| PC for Running Springs conditioner I used an Oyaide Tunami GPX on my Haley and was satisfied. | |
| Can I use two preamps? If you're set on QS then Stanwal has given you the best advice. A tad on the high side but these are excellent:EVS | |
| Power Conditioner or Distributor? The P300 is rated for 300 watts. That means the power consumption of whatever components that you plug into it cannot exceed 300 watts (otherwise it shuts down). So you'll have to look up the power consumption (not output) specs on your amp and pr... | |
| Slate under speakers? I use the Adona platforms as well for my speakers, granite side face down with speakers sitting on the MDF layer. Have been very pleased with this arrangement. | |
| Need some guidance Get yourself a nice Bang & Olufsen Beogram. Something like the 4000, 4002, 8000, or 8002 (check out a couple threads here on Audiogon on these tables). These are pretty much plug and play tables. A nice phono stage should run you another few h... | |
| Speaker Bass Adona platform shelves worked for me. Place the granite side face down on the carpet and rest the speakers on the MDF side. You can spike the speakers into the MDF if desired. Another benefit of this is that I can move my speakers very easily, no ... | |
| Choosing a new turntable I owned a SOTA Nova Series V (upgraded from Star Sapphire) and in my experience these are well designed tables that are great values for the money, especially used. However, I found the table a little too sensitive to vibrations for my taste. You ... | |
| tvc vs avc Correct, I love the RM-10 and just saw one pop up here. Was very tempted. This amp was built by Audiogon member Dertubemeister. |
