| What am I missing? Americana? I recommend The Volebeats, and I must commend this thread for mentioning the Vulgar Boatmen AND the Silos, and coincidentally containing posts by one "waltersalas". | |

| Your definition of soundstage Beerdraft, could you identify some of the music that presents itself in the form of a 20 foot wide soundstade with your system, please? I would love to experiment with soundstage optimization. It would be great to start with source material that c... | |
| HDCD VS SACD There are still some HDCDs being issued. Most are not marked in any way, so it is always a happy surprise when the little HDCD light comes on. One from last year that I just discovered today is Dave Alvin and the Guilty Women. | |
| Best Pre for ATC 100's The amps in ATC active speakers have rather low input impedance (10K ohms). There are those who believe in maintaining a very high ratio of amp input impedance/preamp output impedance. Perhaps coincidently, or perhaps not, the ACT preamps intended... | |
| Playback Designs MPS-5 Review in Stereophile "Decrying "misterious augiogon sensorship" in the context of one's system consisting of the PD MPS-5 player, DartZeel preamp, DartZeel amplification and Evolution Acoustics MM3 loudspeakers perhaps provides a clue about why past PD MPS-5 posts (no... | |
| Synergistic LED's How long do they last ??? FYI, I must concur with Rodman, as Synergistic has offered to provide the LEDs by mail. Most accomodating. Thank you, Mr. Denney. | |
| Synergistic LED's How long do they last ??? Ted, I sure did not intend to racant anything. To be clear, I did replace the dead LEDs with red ones, as I said. My insistence on doing it myself with the correct LED refers to doing it a second time, this time with the OEM LED. I found the task ... | |
| Synergistic LED's How long do they last ??? I have contacted them, although not by phone. Synergistic certainly knows of my request. I suppose I'll just continue to take my chances. But I'm as likely to send the cables in for this simple repair as I am to ship a Ford back to Detroit for a n... | |
| Synergistic LED's How long do they last ??? Ted, in that case I am glad I asked about the LED. I'm reluctant to ship the cables back for a repair involving such simple and cheap stock parts when I can instead do it myself, save a few bucks on shipping, have almost zero system down-time, and... | |
| Synergistic LED's How long do they last ??? I had two of these rascals burn out in rapid succession. Don't know what I did, but I think it was related to a broken miniplug extension cable. Anyway, you can replace the LEDs by stripping the shrink wrap off, soldering in a new LED, and re-shri... | |
| Logitech Transporter Word Clock input anyone ? Sorry, I was not clear in my reply. The DCC2 can indeed play 24/96 files, but only in external clock mode. In master clock mode one is limited to 44.1kHz or 48kHz playback, unless you like half-speed music. Hence, a device to double the frequency ... | |
| Logitech Transporter Word Clock input anyone ? I have the same issue (albeit with an EMM DCC2se dac), and no solution that enables 96kHz playback. | |
| Synergistic New Tesla Line...Any comments? TBG, fair enough, apart from your characterization of my remarks as snide, which I reject, and your insinuations regarding my hearing, which are unsupportable and, ironically, snide. And also with with the understandng that it is YOU that cannot c... | |
| Synergistic New Tesla Line...Any comments? "The MPCs output dc not ac."24V, 300mA on the ones I've looked at. Perhaps others are different voltage or current, but all one needs to do is peel the sticker back and look. But in any case replacements are cheap unless one insists on buying one ... |
