Add-Powr Power Conditioner Review I have the Symphony IO. All I have to do is turn in on and sit down. It takes a few linutes, then you will hear the music sound richer and more open. Turn it off and music will just sound less engaging and open. This test is repeatable. I have ... | |
Streaming Services I use Amazon. Qobuz is 10.95 I think. I can't move all my music that I picked out..I tried Qobuz and found no difference. At the time , they had 60 million songs. All songs are at least 16/44.1. You will want to run Cat 6 or higher or optical... | |
Digital Cable Recommendations I saw some cables that were made out of carbon. This included interconnects, speaker cables, etc. i can't remember the name. Also the Network Acoustic cables are good but expensive. | |
8-10k budget suggestions please Some room treatment would be nice. $1500. I used GIK acoustics. | |
I want more bass… Just walking around the room will tell you if you have nulls. You can use single frequencies. If they truly go that low holding your hand in front of the bass port you should feel plenty of air movement. Then bass traps and first reflection trap... | |
Fuzzy playback I put deoxit on the rest of my interconnects today. That may be it. I should have known. My crossover is about 30 yrs old. The volume controls are not the best. The RCA bases are not the best. I should call Phil Marchand and get a crossover made. ... | |
Fuzzy playback Now I confused myself. If it is a connection issue with digital, it either works or it doesn’t. Correct? This sound has been from RCA cables or volume controls in the past. I assumed it was ethernet cables after I unplugged the patch cable from th... | |

Class D with high efficiency speakers Take a right turn. Try a Pass XA25. I will never sell mine! I know, it is Class A. I have left it on for days and didn't notice any electricity use increase. Class D will be detailed but so is this one. This unit is single ended only, no bal... | |
DAC/Pre-Amp Advice When you get the ethernet hooked up, I would recommend a EMI/RF filter. The Netwotk acoustics ENO or MUON would be excellent. I have $50 Dx Engineering ones. | |
DAC/Pre-Amp Advice Are you running ethernet or optical from router to Node? | |
Best sounding low power (under 80watts) Class AB amp? The Ayre are an excellent choice. You may not like any Class D. Some are in this thread. I know you asked for AB but I have the XA25 Pass Labs sounds great. It gets warm but I can lay my hand on it. Sometimes, I leave iy on for several days... | |
Network Acoustics Eno Streaming System vs SGC Optical Isolation System I have always wondered about so many filters, switches in the streaming setup. Diminishing returns? With that being said I have DX Engineering filters and an Add Powr symphony I O. I think each item does different things. The results are spac... | |
Favourite Guitarists Frank Zappa, Prince, Robert Fripp, Buddy Miller, Mark Knoffler, Billy Springs, other usual suspects. Lately I have been listening to Eddie Roberts. Started with The New Mastersounds and other collaborations. Jazz, funk. Very well produced and rec... | |
What are your top 3 favorite female singers? Adele, tired of hearing about failed relationships. Who am I? Roberta Flack, Karen Carpenter, Enya. I also like Dua Lipa. Would like to hear her live to confirm. Too many voice fixers nowadays. It's funny, Diana Krall used to be on every l... |
