| Sub placement How have you set the phase delay on your subwoofer?. I have a feeling that the reason you like the placement (further back from the speakers) now is because you've got the phase delay matched at that distance so that the subwoofer signal is in pha... | |
| Thinking of adding a sub---maybe not? I would also suggest that you consider JL Audio subs. I use a pair of e112's that are great, but your dealer can help pick the best for your system. | |
| Best drink while listening to your rig? So many good ones listed already. My favorite: Glenfiddich 12 neat | |
| Equipment that has made you 'stop' looking? CJ Art Stereo 150Tube bliss. | |
| Company loyalty- What has been your favorite? I own some other components, but have been especially loyal to these brands:Conrad Johnson. I've had several pre amps and amps and love the CJ sound. Plus great customer service.Shunyata for PC's that really enhance a system. Have had great experi... | |
| Best best ballads that refer to a US State This is a fun thread. Here are some other really good songs that mention states...Dock of the Bay, Otis Redding (I left my home in Georgia)Elton John - ballad of Danny Baily(Cause Kentucky loved him)Charlie Daniels - Devil went down to GeorgiaAnd... | |
| Best best ballads that refer to a US State +1 on Montana. And yeah it is the best. :-) | |
| Noise issues that can’t be corrected. Double pane windowns helped soften outside noises in our home. After that we just turn up the volume. | |

If a few folks recommend something then I often use that to narrow down the search. I agree with JL35 that its just a... | |
| My system....what and how will cabling impact? Check out Siltech 770 interconnects. Smooth, detailed and full sounding. | |
| My system....what and how will cabling impact? I also think the speaker wires should come before choosing interconnects and power cords. Cable co is a great recommendation. They're really knowledgeable and helpful. Transparent Ultra RCAs are a good step up from the Supers (I've used both), but... | |
| For ARC lovers, Problems? OP, it would still be helpful to know what you replaced your ARC with to understand why your unhappy at this point. | |
| For ARC lovers, Problems? (I meant mixed bag, not bad above)Only thing I've heard that's close to your issue is that they've made the decision to stop offering upgrades to their Ref Phono 2 to SE now that the Ref Phono3 SE is out. I'm mostly a CJ guy and never have this ki... | |
| For ARC lovers, Problems? Mixed bad on AR stuff. Told a buddy to brick his ~12 yr old CD player that needed repair.What is the new pre you're using as a replacement for the ARC?(Sorry if i missed that in the chain) | |
| What 50wpc or higher amps have a totally different sound from Pass Labs, in a good way? Opposite? Not sure what that means since Pass occupies the space between solid state and tube sound IMHO. Different- audition a CJ Art 150. Beautifully captures rhythm, pacing and inner detail. Great Imaging and very musical without the drawbacks ... |
