| Klipsch La Scala --two types? Crites would be your one stop shop They sell all the parts. If you want the Behma then that's different. If you don't want to mess with tubes small Class A amps are an alternative. Pass, First Watt, Luxman, Sugden are all good. Or if you like th... | |
| Types of Audiophiles The patient: addicted, impulsive, let down after purchase. | |
| A heartfelt thank you to AudiogoN and members.... Music is one of those things that can take you away from all the other problems. A satisfying system only helps. Thanks for the pointers and recommendations. I learn a lot just following conversations. | |
| How crucial is the quality of a digital cable? I tried to keep things under control when I started. I found an ebay seller. Pine Tree Audio. He also has a web site. Good quality low overhead company. COAX digital cable $40. Power cords are braided with very nice plugs. Prices vary/ I t... | |
| Ethernet cables @vonhelmholtz As an experiment, I bought a pair of DX Engineering inline RFI/EMI filters. I was instructed to place one on each end of the Blue Jeans Cat 6 line. $50 for the pair. I noticed an immediate openness and clarity.. It was actually e... | |
| So, I listened to a $1Million Dollar System I like old sayings. Here's one. "Money they don't know what to do with" When I heard Sasha DAW. Kinda the same, distant and dull. | |
| Nobosound Springs I use springs under the Crites. If I recall the weight limit for four springs is 120 lbs. A rule of thumb is the spring should be half compressed, measured between top and bottom disk. Is the definition of isolation pucks, pods, bars or platfor... | |
| Best way to keep REL sub from “hopping around” at high volumes I like the sound of springs over sorbothane. I think Herbie's is platinum infused rubber. Many choices once you get this solved you will love the bass. | |
| Am I Getting Soft Here? HaHa! See how long it lasted. I have a proper rack coming. The other one just sat on the floor so this should help. It is a Pangea Vulcan they were on sale for $169. I have a bunch of Herbie's stuff to put under components. Is it advised to ... | |
| Am I Getting Soft Here? So many people sound like my experience. Sold everything raised my kids. Retired, started over. I'm not rich. I don't have audio stores, a society, or any audiophiles around. So I bought speakers and had some equipment. And I am such a wise ... | |
| DACs that do well without a preamp Most DAC put out 2V single ended or 4V balanced. Also check the volts required for full power on the amp. Some volume control bit strip "bit strip" as volume is reduced. There are several kinds of volume control, resistors based, light based, a... | |
| Snake oil of the year? Sure there are 1s and 0s. If somebody buys something and it works good for them. Aqvox must sell enough to stay in business, for example. But, good streaming requires proper streamer design, filtering for EMI/RF,, linear power supplies anythin... | |
| Pass labs upgrade path I have the pass XA25 running with a Khozmo passive. And upgraded resistors. I think my system has a neutral sound. I have horn speakers as well. I won't be buying anything else. Really good sound. | |
| Experienced only: What have you done with room correction? I started updating my system 3 years ago. After, i got all the components, one of the first things I bought was room panels. I have two bass traps sitting behind the system, 6 first reflection panels, and 3 diffusers . Room is 12 x 17x 8. Very ... | |
| New Sugden mono blocks have arrived. Those look like some "real" amps JK. . I have Pass so I am sure I would love the sound!! Congrats! |
