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 ... | |
Seeking Opinions on Stealth speaker wire Audibleguy: Talk with Pierre at Mapleshade and he will answer all of your questions. And now - back to the thread... | |
Keeping cables off the floor Yes, as far as the speaker cables go, it has made a noticeable improvement in my system which has 17' speaker cable runs. I hang my cables from the bottom of standard book shelves with silk ribbon ties and run them across the bottom of a doorway b... | |
Cumulative Effects of Cables? I have done it both ways (all silver, all copper and now I use a combination of pure silver and copper "micro" wires), there is really no exact right or wrong, IMO. I have never matched all cables (including the speaker and power cables) from one ... | |
Acoustic Energy Aegis One Speakers. Try giving them at least 100 hours depending on how high the volume is. I would not play them at high volume for the first 200 hours or so. I have listened to them in the shops quite a few times and like them myself, great speakers at their price ... | |
Cleaning cd players I also would like to clean my CD player soon and will follow this thread, so no advice on that, but what I use on my CD's are (i)clear (fusion 5) lens cleaning cloths from my eye doctor. They are formulated for specially coated lenses such as mine... | |
High Efficiency Speakers Lak: I'm glad that someone else has heard of them (the Hammer's) plus a personal reccomendation from a friend at that. I have listened to old Lowthers and found them to be too bright for most source material, IMO, but now understand that they have... | |
components in your system I never thought of the source material and even that (for me) has gone with time or changed format. I no longer have reel to reel tapes or 8 tracks. I don't have much vinyl left (and nothing to play it back on). We still have quite a few cassettes... | |
components in your system No Albert, it's a fruit woodie, Persimmon to be exact and it's never had to take a blood presure pill in it's life/existance. |
