| Is it possible to remote on a tube amp I cannot see that it would be any different from using the power switch on the amp (see last sentence) though the power conditioner may change the sound (for better or for worse). Do you already use the conditioner on the amp? What amp is it and d... | |
| brulee fails PC challenge ... and I thought you guys were friends. | |
| PC Challenge Test Results Nice system JHunter and also thanks for taking the Pepsi challenge. I also like HWY's test suggestion. The cords and inputs could later be switched on the players and the tests ran through again to see if the same results come up. I am certain tha... | |
| What's wrong with my Cal Delta/Sigma? Yohjixme: I am just fishing here, but the digital IC does effect the sound quite a bit (regardless of what the bits is bits crowd has to say about it). It could be the cable, but I kind of doubt it would make the sound awful, as you describe unles... | |
| PC Challenge Test Results JHunter: Did you try the PC on a source component or an amp? Hopefully both. | |
| Musical Fidelity HT600? It could be that the sales territory is changing. There was a new distributor in Canada a while back (4-5 months). Try checking the MF website for reps. I have also worked with a shop in Ontario that carries MF and the owner knows the new Canadian... | |
| brulee fails PC challenge JHunter: It would seem from what I experienced when rerouting the speaker cable, that bending the wire is a part of what effects the sound, as it was just moved and not disconnected. I would guess that this would vary depending on the design of th... | |
| How can power cords make a difference? You guys are too kind. Or are you? | |
| brulee fails PC challenge No explanation, but I find this to be true of anything that I "switch" in my setup (both cables and electronics that have already been broken in). Like you, Bruce, it takes a day and a half or two for everything to sound the same (familiar) again,... | |
| Sakura Systems OTA Cable Kit Bruce, it's good to have your endorsement of the product. I wired up a friends system (speaker wire only) with the extra cable that I had and he asked last week if he could run it for another month (which means that I won't be getting it back:-). ... | |
| Barebone 2A3 or SET Amp and speaker MrGil: Have you tried subbing another 6922 type for the 6N1P tube? I did not when I had the amp in my possesion as I could not locate them at the time, but wonder what a nice soft Amperex or Mullard would sound like. I agree with buying the best p... | |
| How can power cords make a difference? I do them all the time, it's my new life. Where have you been? I don't do judge and jury anymore (just make obvious observations on my own) so, you will have to answer the other questions on your lonesome. | |
| What's wrong with my Cal Delta/Sigma? How long has it been powered up and what were you using as a source before? Might want to check the tubes in the DAC as well. Most of the tubes that I receive in the mail sound like crap for a couple of days (both signal and output) as they seem t... | |
| Damping Factor Thanks Poulkirk, for an answer that I can mostly understand. I have always wondered this about tube and some SS designs, in regard to the bass response. | |
| How can power cords make a difference? It's probably not 702's fingers on the keyboard, just some auto reply device that he has devised, to take the thought out of not thinking, let alone hearing. |
