| Need silver power cord help Hi Trelja: I just pulled out my bag (knapsack) of extra PC's (got busted by the wife as I was in the middle of examining them:-) and found that both the IEC and the AC plug on the Stealth PC are modular in that they open completely up and expose t... | |
| How can power cords make a difference? Yes RedKiwi: It is a shame that none of the power supplies have been properly designed in your otherwise stellar system. | |
| SE amp with low impedance speakers? I run Reynaud Twins (90 db @ 4 ohms) with an Audion Silver Night 300B SET and it sounds great. Not all tube amps create fly away bass with 4 ohm speakers, but I understand your concern. The best way to find out is to do a demo (hope it's possible)... | |
| Looking for a "Tube Guide" Yes: Go to Audioasylum.com and cruise through the "tube" and "set" forums. Once you get aquainted the site has a full search feature which will allow you to research specific types. Just keep in mind that these are opinions and not gospel. | |
| Power Cord Challenge I have used rapid switching in audio shops with good results but since I do not have this feature at home (nor would I want it) I just use "key" notes and pieces of music. When I went to Kublakan's AR/BAT audition in late April we used the finger ... | |
| Multiple Copies Of LP s Same Title When I played vinyl in the 70's and 80's I used to buy multiples of all of my favorite albums. The most for any single one being 12 copies (plus I already had one) of It's a Beautiful Day "Marrying Maiden" (sp). When I sold off my vinyl in the mid... | |
| Help me salvage my rack To try something different you should be able to pick up a couple of MDF shelves cut to size for $5 or so at your local lumber yard. For starters without geting into upturned spikes, specialty soft footers and the like try isolating the MDF shelve... | |
| Musical Fidelity Integrated Amps There is a pro review of the X-A2 at this site - http://www.hifichoice.co.uk/ (click reviews at the top of the page). Further down the page is a link to the "old" reviews which include the X-A1 and the A3 (pretty certain that it is there). I own a... | |
| Power Cord Challenge OOps: Forgot that Bruce is also using the Neuance and may be using the 47 Labs cable as well. Anyway, we have a lot of art and old plastic souviner snowdomes to look at. | |
| Power Cord Challenge Yes, Late June sounds like a good time for me and by then I will have additional PC's which we may use in the tests. I should also have my system (which will include new goodies such as the Neuance shelving and hopefully the 47 Labs cabling) up an... | |
| Granite Audio Power cord 555 I get it now. Would you care to do it with speakers, CD players and DACs as well? | |
| Trelja in New York Hi Trelja: Nice report, I think, and too bad that the overall sound was not better as this should be what the show is all about. Better luck next time. I am not surprised by your comments at all when I think about all of the audio showrooms that I... | |
| BEST AC CORD UNDER 1000? No, most of us are end users in that we actually use the products that we discuss. | |
| Monitors are falling Wirehead: I take it that they are not "cute" dimples. | |
| Monitors are falling Find a way to bolt your stands to the floor (most stands should be easy to retrofit to suit this need). Speakers could be bolted or screwed to the stands, though the clay like stuff that I use (4 peas sized balls) makes it very difficult to remove... |
