Power/Line conditioner I should mention something else as to why results may differ with these devices. I was using a Musical Fidelity X-A1 amp at the time of my tests. The amp has an external power supply that I found out by accident holds a great deal of current, IMO,... | |
In-wall speaker help Linn also produces in wall speakers. The sibilance that you have experienced with two different speakers may also be something else in the chain. If you can, try hooking up a pair of more conventional speakers (from your other stereo if you have o... | |
Keeping cables off the floor I just "cleared" a few cables last night that had gone off track and were touching walls and the improvement in clarity was very noticeable as a CD was playing during this process. I wonder if it also has something to do with the length and make o... | |
Homegrown or Mapleshade Hi Nanderson: My current setup in the living room is: Monster HTS2000 conditioner/HT Pro 11 PC/CAL Icon MKII/Mapleshade Double Helix digital IC/Bel Canto DAC 1 -w- HT Pro 11 PC/Homegrown Super Silver analog IC's/Audion Silver Night 300b stereo amp... | |
Vibrapods and Speakers Hi Sam: I have tried both Vibrapods, Mapleshade Surefoot brass cones and Racing cones in the past though I have not tried the Vibrapods on my new Reynaud speakers (thanks for reminding me). The Pods do extend the bass and tend to smooth the overal... | |
Homegrown or Mapleshade Nanderson: Which model of Clearview are you using, the Ultrathin or the Double Helix? I am using the Double Helix digital IC in combination with Homegrown Super Silver analog IC's right now (sounds good) and am considering going to all Mapleshade ... | |
Keeping cables off the floor Alexc: I use a toilet paper roll to protect the ends of my Mapleshade digital IC's (they are very close to a wall thermostat that sees much activity) and they don't sound like crap:-) Never thought of using bubble wrap though. | |
Power/Line conditioner Sol: The Hts2000 is the only one that I have used and it was selected by reading reviews both pro and non pro and also by the price. It really helps with my system, but I also live in LA and have crumby power. I am now looking for something less e... | |
Cumulative Effects of Cables? Perfect: My mixing of Mapleshade (micro copper) and Homegrown (pure solid core silver) brought a little more warmth to my system without sacrificing detail. the combo sounds more musical to me. I had tried another copper digital IC by Canare (befo... | |
components in your system Yes, a good tuner makes sense as well. I feel like I am losing on "Family Feud" at this point as I haven't thought of any of the logical choices on my own. | |
Acoustic Energy Aegis One Speakers. Lpsforever: You may want to look into the Mapleshade Clearview Golden Helix speaker cable and their less expensive IC's as well. The speaker cable is $85.00/8ft pair or $115.00/12ft pair and the IC is $65.00. I use their more expensive digital IC ... | |
Antique Sound Lab Amps I recently purchased an Audion Silver Knight 300b SET (7 watts) for Reynaud Twins and the combo sounds great. Dark, my Twins took another turn at around 400-500 hours and offered up additional low level detail. They seem to have pretty much levele... | |
Power/Line conditioner Ton1313: Or check out the less expensive Monster HTS2000 which is "said" to sound better than the 3500 model. I purchased the HTS2000 model because of this feedback from the web. It was purchased new for $125.00, mail order. | |
components in your system Mes: Not a problem, I am a big TH's fan starting from 1976 and used to have the "Big Suit" on vidio. It was TH's and Television at the time. I also used to look a lot like Byrne when I was younger and 25 lbs lighter and was once mobbed by a crowd ... | |
