| Velodyne DD-series subwoofer If you are in an apartment then decouple the sub from the floor to prevent shaking your neighbors physically. Try some Aurio's under the sub, and mass load the top with some lead shot (25lbs #6)DD15 or DD18? Awesome problem to have, I basically co... | |
| Subwoofer Isolation, what do you think... Oh Yeah get a 25lb bag of #6 (I bought #7.5 instead because that is what the gun shop had in stock and it works also)lead shot and throw the bag on your sub with whatever isolation you choise it will tighen up the bass more by adding mass to the t... | |
| Subwoofer Isolation, what do you think... I had the same problems with my Velodyne FSR1800X Subwoofer next to my Projector stand shaking the pj. I tried Aurio 1.2's first and then went to Aurio Pro's to Decouple my Subwoofer from my tile floor. I also went through that same process to flo... | |
| Concerto pre-amp vs. the Synergy IIi As to running the synergy on batteries requires two marine batteries (I use Optoma Marine batteries from Costco $139 each for the deep discharge), I use two motorcycle battery tenders for each attached to a switched outlet that I turn off when I w... | |
| CD players in $2K range with balanced output Get a Gamut CD1R or CD1S or CD1 MK II, these are awesome out the balanced out but be prepared for 4volt output instead of a 2volt. Extremely underrated player that is wonderfully musical with very nice detail. Never Fatiguing | |
| Concerto pre-amp vs. the Synergy IIi if you have a Synergy IIi, take it to the next step and run it on batteries like I have. Your rowland dealer can order a custom cable and use two Optoma Marine Batteries! You can see the wiring of the batteries in my system photos of the Optoma Ba... | |
| New Condo, time to downsize?? The Rowland equipment is tuby smooth and grainless but without any bloat, there is no Solid state edge, but it isn't overly warm (aka CJ) or dark (Cary). It's a excellent compromise, plus the fit and finish are amazing, not to mention how cool the... | |
| Jeff Rowland 201 or 501 for high current demands if you can go for the 501's! the 201's just didn't cut the mustard with the ultimate in control on my WP7's (then again I was comparing them to my Lamm's iron fist control).The 201's are amazing for their cost and they are buttery smooth and compl... | |
| A question for JC-1 owners... Bob,What about your powercords makes them synergize with the JC-1's? What other amps/items do they work with best?Does length make a difference (2 short runs to the amp or 6' or longer)In the past I found Silver Power cables tended to make things ... | |
| Whats the word on Jeff Rowland pre-amps? Why move to separates? Get the new Jeff Rowland Integrated which has two 201's builtin. This will save you considerable $$$. I too have heard the 201's and they weren't controlling enough compared to my Lamm M1.1 on my Wilson WP7's, but they were ... | |

| Cool Amps Needed for Eggleston Savoy's Raquel: I'll second the Jeff Rowland 301 recommendation, my Wilson dealer powers a pair of Maxx II's with those.I have Lamm Monoblocks so I understand Class A hot. | |
| Anyone pay 1st price, Even if it's fair ? Poll I pay the asking price when I want something now! If I want to play and the add says obo, then I'll make a reasonable offer very close to the asking price or just ask for shipping included at asking price to make the payment calc quick and easy. I... | |
| Magnepan 3.6R vs. 2.7QR Yes do the upgrade! I use to own IIIa's with the true ribbon adn there is no comparison (I owned 1.6's also). The 3.6 is a true upgrade from your or even IIIa,3.3,3.5 which are all similar |
