| Suggestions for filling speakers stands? Ohlala: Where do you locate Silicone in a form that stands can be filled with. The fill holes on my stands are way too small fro even the smallest of breast implants. Is Silicone low mass as well? I am looking for a fill that is of low mass and th... | |
| Cable Arrangement Suggestions Yes, I follow all of Delof's guidelines and will stress the importence of keeping the left and right speakers cables as far apart from each other as possible, even when they are close to the amp. | |
| Old Philips CD as transport or new playe Seldener: The DAC would just be the first step in your case and would give immediate gratification. With a DAC however you will have the added expense of a good digital IC as well as a good power cord and isolation components (if you involve yours... | |
| Replacing Jumpers = Bi-wiring?? Hi Leafs: Long time no talk about bi-wire. I tried it with a pair of Castle Isis speakers and it did sound different than single wire, I didn't care for the sound though and preferred that of just using an additional piece of my Kimber Kable to ju... | |
| Old Philips CD as transport or new playe Seldener & Slingshot: I use the Icon MKII as a transport with the Bel Canto DAC and it sounds great. Out of curiosity I tried a friends new/used Meridian 506.24 player as a transport and could just detect a little more definition in the bass a... | |
| Power cords - a BASIC question It can work both ways. I have auditioned power cords that actually degraded the sound of my system. I have an SET based system that is at the bottem of the of the price range when compared to most of the other posters systems at this forum. On my ... | |
| One Month Music Discoveries Snooker: I ordered CJ CD's directly from their website for under $10.00US each. Are they offering the same deal at Amazon? | |
| One Month Music Discoveries I would like to scratch the "Jazz Mandlin Project". I just finished listening to it again, and it could be my mood, but I felt there was a lot of fiddling going on when they should have been faddling. | |
| Best single-malt Scotch... Massvm: That's because we haven't consumed any yet, give it some time. Steven: I have been off work for the past year and then some, but was selling it for $35 towards the end of 1999. When we first stocked it it was $30 at our regular discount pr... | |
| One Month Music Discoveries The Jazz Mandolin Project, "Xeno Blast" and J.J. Cale "Anyway the Wind Blows" anthology is great (two CD's and 50 songs). The last CD I picked up was Bach's "The Art of Fugue", Rinaldo Alessandrini on Opus 111, France. | |
| Best single-malt Scotch... The Dalmore 12 and Balvenie Doublewood 12 (standard finish), both with a few drops of branch. Readily available, resonably priced and too thick for many Scotch lovers. I'm a Maker's Mark guy myself. | |
| Cable "burning": Real or VooDoo ??? The proof is in the hearing, at least this is what I feel that this hobby is all about. In that any difference perceived is in fact "real" as in "I think, therefore I exist." Proof other than that perceived through the senses does not really mean ... | |
| SHUNYATA BLK MAMBA or WHALE ELITE? That's good news. I had figured that I would have to hang them from ribbons, though I probably will need some sort of support for the one going to the little Bel Canto DAC. I am mailing my order for two of the Whales today. | |
| Radio Shack Gold interconnects? Considering the speakers that you mention in your other thread (assuming that you have electronics to match) I would save the $12 and put it towards some better cable. I am using a pair of the RS Gold on our mini system, right now, which is being ... | |
| The Best DeKay - Copper or Silver Wire? If I have to throw out "Bread" I might as well toss all of the "America" CD's as well (sorry Tom W.). |
