| HomeGrown Audio Impressions Frank S: How did you go about shielding the IC? | |
| Single bi-wire or double bi-wire ? I suspect that like almost everything, the results that you achieve with bi-wiring are system and taste dependent. I tried it with Castle Acoustic Isis speakers (already had the additional shotgun run after a failed bi-amp setup, so why not). Well... | |
| smoothing those sibilants... Pinning or better yet holding your ears back and in reduces sibilance. No joke, try it. Hwy61 is also right on IMO. Having attempted a career as a professional musician I have heard a lot of SSSSS words in live performances that were due to both t... | |
| PSB speakers? Anyone have any opinions? Thought I would add my two cents in regard that the PSB speakers would be good for HT. I recently (two weeks ago) auditioned the PSB Silveri and Goldi speakers and found them to be very good indeed in the price range for two channel listening. Not... | |
| Why do digital cables sound different? Hear Hear. | |
| Anyone ever opened MIT cables? Most cables are overpriced IMO. They are also system and taste dependent. I use both Homegrown Super Silver and HT Truthlink IC's (switch them out). They sound entirely different and I like them both at certain times and for certain music. All cab... | |
| Why do digital cables sound different? I just ordered the Mapleshade Double Helix Digital Cable. It is not a coaxial design. Since I have never used a digital cable before I thought that I would start with the unknown. I also enjoy talking with Pierre at Mapleshade who has freely share... | |
| The fallacy of ac treatment Jeffrt: You may be able to locate him on the "All SS Amps Sound Alike" thread at that other site. | |
| Classe integrated or Musical Fidelity? Sam: Hi-Fi Choice gave the A3 a so so review. They also did not try it with a variety of equipment. For example my X-A1 did not work well with Linn Tukans during a home demo but sings with the other speakers that I have thrown at it. I like Hi-Fi ... | |
| Why do digital cables sound different? Thanks Pops. David. | |
| "The Audio Critic" B.S. or what? So much for "music hath charms to soothe the savage breast". Think I got it right this time. | |
| Classe integrated or Musical Fidelity? Frmont: Have you auditioned the less expensive (and less powerful) Musical Fidelity A3? If so, what is your take between it and the A300 in regard to tonal characteristics? I have read that it is a bit drier, but this was just noted in a couple of... | |
| Why do digital cables sound different? Pops or anybody: Is the Illuminati D60 the same as the currently advertised Illumination D60? I have been watching this thread, but have nothing to add as I will be purchasing my "first" coaxial cable shortly to add a Bel Canto DAC to my system. I... | |
| MISSING THE POINT? I was referring to "new to me" music above and most of what I pick up used is not popular music, other than the Cowboy Junkies and Henri Mancini (he's popular isn't he?). I would not be as successful (I think) picking up popular music used as I ha... | |
| cd player skipping If you go to Audioreview.com and research your player you will see that the unit has a history of skipping and down time. If isolation devices and proper leveling/cleaning and adjustment do not work it may be time to move on (unless it's under war... |
