| binding posts You need to remove the metal plates if you biwire or biamp. You only need the plates if you run one set of wires into the speakers. Also, not only do you defeat the purpose of running the speaker bi- if you don't remove them, you can damage the sp... | |
| To ROON or not to ROON ? @oddiofyl @lalitk My story is just about the same as you guys. I went with Bluesound first and upgraded to Aurrender. No regrets. Have found no need to use Roon. | |
| What was the last CD you bought (Name, and year issued)? @jgfergus Nice! I have three of the four. But I don't recognize the bottom left one though. | |
| Wondering... @jasonbourne52 Nope. I have not spent tens of thousands, but I can easily hear the difference between DACs, AMPs, Headphones, Cartridges, CD players and streamers (oh wait, those last two are sources just like cartridges!). I do have a harder ti... | |
| Wondering... @ghdprentice +1 on everything you said. Great advice all around. | |
| Choosing an integrated for low volume listening I own the 590AXII and yes, I used the loudness at low volumes, and it does work wonders. Spearkers are Harbeth. But are you asking for a better set up then you have now or just other combinations? | |
| Try This With Your SS Amp It is beautiful. Enjoy! | |
| Whats on your turntable tonight? There's a full Moon in Paris tonight....... Amber Rubarth, I started with Sessions, move on to Good Mystery, after that probably put a mix of other female songwriters/singers on. | |
| The Music Room Erie CO Haven't used them yet, but I did the same thing you did, moved from a Vault to an N200. It was a really nice upgrade. Enjoy! | |
| Reviews - Your Pet Peaves It makes sense for them to use speakers they are familiar with (esoteric or not), that way they can compare the sound of different amps, it works the other way also, they would use a setup they know the sound of, to compare to other amps/DACs etc.... | |
| What are/were the best sounding cheap components you have ever had? A Hafler DH101 preamp I got for like $75 used many years back. Sounded fantastic and I gave it to a friend to start his stereo journey. | |
| Invoice, or not invoice ? I've never asked for or been asked for an invoice. I can understand a business buying from a business for bookkeeping purposes, but what are you expecting an invoice to do for you in a private sale? Protect you from fraud somehow? | |
| Aurender N200 I went from a blue sound vault, then added a dedicated DAC to it, then upgraded to the N200. Very happy with the value and sound of each upgrade. Just the facts from someone who actually did what you are thinking of doing. No problems with the sys... | |
| Any favorites for cosmetics/design/how a product looks? @bslon I also had a Nak, died a few years back though. What cartridge do you use on the Empire? A friend had the Empire way back when and used a Shure V15 III, I myself had to settle for a Pioneer PL-530, the Empire was way too expensive for me... | |
| Any favorites for cosmetics/design/how a product looks? @bslon ahhhhh, now that system sounds good just looking at it! Although I was a Marantz receiver guy myself, nothing wrong with the Sansui. |
