| Isolation platform for the power amps The Basalt slabs are only $200. I've just ordered a pair from Bocchino Audio. | |
| Isolation platform for the power amps you could use basalt slabs, volcanic rock made with a completely irregular matrix.Check out this link from a manufacturer of what many consider the maker of the finest audio connectors, etc...http://www.bocchtech.com/bocchinoaudio/isolationplatfor... | |
| Acoustic Dreams - Isolation Rack ? Dazzdax (Chris) Sometimes it's important to not just take the easy option, by getting the product made with cheap labour. If we all take the same approach, unemployment in Western Countries will eventually go through the roof.I support and endorse... | |
| Acoustic Dreams - Isolation Rack ? Hi Gfroman,Do you love them in terms of performance or sound?I'm more interested in how they stack up to the others such as Grand Prix Monaco, Finite Elemente, etc... | |
| Preamp Deal of the Century I think the bass is pretty good, detail is there but could be a little tighter. In that case you would just use the 6H30 part of the pre-amp circuit for the ultimate response. | |
| Preamp Deal of the Century I do have to agree with Srajan, the 101D is something very special. I have the Cab Dual and the 6H30 is great on the bass, but the 101D is truely magical in the mids/highs, so much air and detail, it's intoxicating. It's light years ahead of the S... | |
| Rock Maple substitute So, would it be fair in saying any wood might be okay as long as it's very, very dense.I hear maple has a density of around 740 kg/m3. While my cabinet maker suggested a wood called Merbau (Instia Bijunga), which is a New Guinea/North Queensland H... | |
| Preamp Deal of the Century Not sure what the V-Cap values are. I'll ask him next time and post the results.On a different note, I noticed the Cab Dual has both XLR and RCA Inputs. Is anyone able to describe the differences, since I don't have a pair of XLR cables to comment... | |
| Preamp Deal of the Century I think will soon make v-caps as standad equipment on the top end models. My Cabernet Dual came with v-caps.Btw, Nice sound, big weighty sound compared to running Audio Aero Capitole MKII direct. | |
| Preamp Deal of the Century Hi all,I have a Cabernet Dual which was hopefully shipped today to Sydney.I plan to use the 101D pre-amp section going into a pair of 13E1 SET mono amplifiers (30 watts) and the 6H30 pre-amp section going to a seperate subwoofer. The 13E1 will hop... | |
| Not Another NuForce thread...... I know a friend that sold his Pass Labs x250.5 in favour of the NuForce Reference 9.02 SE | |
| Tube CD-player question You could try the Naim CDX or CDS3 for solid state which is similar to tubes | |
| SET for 88 dB 4 ohm loadspeaker Another consideration is a set of SET amps based on a 13E1 tube. I think it's a tetrode running in triode and still produces 30+ watts | |
| What time do you wear? Breitling Blackbird Crono. | |
| Home made cable lifters. I placed cardboard under all cables raising all cables in minimum of about 2 inches. That and seperating all cables including power had a dramatic difference on top end extension and seperation of instruments. |
