Direct lines and adding a power conditioner Audiolabyrinth,Interesting, a lot of audiophiles have power conditioners with their dedicates lines. | |
Review: Tube Research Labs Dude Tube preamp My Dude goes into an active x-over which then has 3 channels per speaker. So I use a Parasound A52 and a Parasound A21.I also have a solid core copper power cord. As mentioned, the Teslaplex receptacle really made a difference with it; much more s... | |
Review: Tube Research Labs Dude Tube preamp I also have a Dude with only one output. I will be upgrading to the Dueland CAST. I was wondering what power cord you are using. This weekend I was playing with different receptacles. The Dude liked the Teslaplex best using a 20amp solid core powe... | |
Interconnect with great dynamics and bass slam , Audiolabyrinth - yes, Dude is *only* tube based.Grey9hound - it is not the cables CRL currently sells. It is the older CRL-FIM interconnect that are solid core copper. If CRL-FIM had different interconnect models, I couldn't comment on which I hav... | |
Interconnect with great dynamics and bass slam , There are plenty of threads on Audiogon about the Dude. It is probably best to direct your questions there.I will say it was significantly better than the last preamp I owned, which is highly regarded. And that preamp was significantly better than... | |
Interconnect with great dynamics and bass slam , I believe Winston Ma and Paul Weitzel, both well known recording engineers, teamed up to combine their knowledge of creating cables into CRL-FIM (or is it FIM-CRL). Since that time the company has seemed to split/transition several times. The curr... | |
Interconnect with great dynamics and bass slam , I'm a bit late to the party, but this weekend I just compared 4 interconnects. By far the interconnect that had best dynamics and bass slam was CRL-FIM interconnect. The bass had great articulation and realism. As someone else mentioned OCC copper... | |
Dedicated line w/ upgraded parts or power cond? i can say in my case dedicated line was by far better than any power conditioner i used. in fact once i put the direct line in i found the power conditioner i was using actually hindered the sound, dynamics seemed to be restricted.the other consid... | |
Power cords for ModWright SCD-XA5400es I recently plugged a LessLoss original into the PS of the Sony and was surprised at how natural and full vocals became. It you have a tight and analytical sound and want a bit more warmth you might like this cord. | |
Tube Pre-Amp Recommendation Dragon_vibe,I bought the Dude based on the postings here and everything that is said is true. It truly changed what I thought was possible with my system.Consider the amount of marketing a company does and whether they have a resellar/distributor ... | |
Modwright sony xa5400 vs Modwright Oppo 95 I've experimented with several receptacles and Modwright CDP's and PS sound best plugged into a Oyaide R1. YMMV. | |
Why does better power = better sound? I've put in 5 direct lines with 10 gauge romex and upgraded receptacles. The difference is amazing. I would like to the take the next step forward and was looking for recommendations. I have tried a couple of power conditioners, but for whatever p... | |
interconnects specifically for speaker drivers needs to be RCA. | |
interconnects specifically for speaker drivers hence my asking for a recommendation on someone or a company who can do this coherently and synergy. ignore my adjectives above, with my setup i can have interconnects optimized for frequency range. i would think it is easier in some respects to m... | |
interconnects specifically for speaker drivers yes i do |
