| DAC diminishing returns @electroslacker ...there’s a DAC3 but even they feel that’s getting into diminishing returns... It can be. Demos at home in your system helps a lot to decide. Had a very nice DAC3B here for several weeks. Great on paper. Returned it. Ended ... | |
| I have a feel good story.... Thanks for sharing the story. It’s great to read about people with passion helping their customers and business in a determined way like this. I read a post on a different forum showing a picture of EveAnna riding her Harley with a pack on the bac... | |
| Any Quicksilver MX-190 owners here? Yes, try Mouser. These are not exactly the same, but getting closer. Here is a filter set for some of the Carlington Technologies Rocker switches as a starting point. Looks close to the stock switch, to get some ideas. Just go with a quality swit... | |
| Selling gear with TMR @ozzy agree with you and @hilde45 if the items are we are trying to sell to them are (boutique) not mainstream or regularly bought/sold, there is less appreciable market data available for them to go off, and (more perceived risk) to make a reason... | |
| Selling gear with TMR Had a really good experience with TMR recently on a sell and buy situation. Fair price on a trade-in and a fair price on a secondary purchase. Fifth transaction so far over the past few years. One of the buyers there was very helpful, and sha... | |
| Cardas Clear Reflection advice needed Break-In? Burn-in? Relaxing the cables? Releasing dialectric tension - Say What? Just swapped out 3-week old Clear Reflection interconnects with 200+hrs on them for a 2nd brand new pair with (0) hours time on them. Put the new pair in the exact ... | |

| Speaker cable recommendations @wilson3 .."as I do feel really blessed to have finally found such a great sounding system"... What cables are you using now? What’s not working for you now? Your speakers are $7k retail, right? Best to answer member @spenav ’s question firs... | |
| What cable companies make the best cables and sell them directly? Analysis Plus has an online Home-Audio-Store now. Most authorized dealers charge the same or better and it can be an option to buy from one of them, or if they are local to you maybe you can try them out on demo. This is how I tried Oval, Copp... | |
| Using Adcom GFA-555s as monoblocks to power magnepan 3.3s in active biamp @jji666 jji666 Since the Magnepans are 4 ohm rated, however it’s only the bass panels I’d be powering, what are your thoughts on stability? Bridged.., unstable. Not that desirable. Sharing an experience if it helps, and firstly: Why? What a... | |
| Cardas Clear Reflection advice needed @williampowell yes, and own Clear Ref now for interconnects. For me It had to do more with matching up my particular input/output tube selection and coupling caps I run in my DAC, preamp, and amplifiers though. Re-cabling again came last. I was a... | |
| Cardas Clear Reflection advice needed @williampowell yes, your Parsec and Iridium are going to be a bit laid back/warmer/grainier sounding in comparison to Cygnus. They are different cable designs too. You can send an email to Cardas and Josh or Brian will explain differences with Car... | |
| ESS Heil Air-Motion transformer model 1-D set of speakers @robbinsnest Used "core" value ranges greatly on the later 1D model. The prior 1C, 1B models are a little more desirable imo. Parts including Heil AMT diaphragms (brittle by now), dry crossover caps inside, stiff-cracking woofer surrounds due to a... | |
