Dynaudio Confidence C1 broken & Cap question
The guy was more than a little thrilled with the sound. He was blown away. He'll be back for the speakers. He just needs to find the right room. God Bless that lucky %$#*! 
Dynaudio Confidence C1 broken & Cap question
Mapman, You're right on both accounts however my feeling is that these speakers were well cared for. I've been in contact with the former owner who's offered to help in any way he can. Speaking with the Dynaudio folks, they mentioned that driving ... 
Dynaudio Confidence C1 broken & Cap question
The driver is burned. I am responsible for the damage so there will be no retribution. There wasn't an "event" that took the driver out, nothing I can point to so that I can feel comfortable with these speakers in the future. Maybe it was simply U... 
Dynaudio Confidence C1 broken & Cap question
"If you can take the speaker apart, why did not you order the C1 woofer and replace the OEM woofer yourself? It is cheaper that way."An OEM C1 woofer? I did take the speaker apart. I pulled the driver myself and enquired about the repair as no one... 
Balanced cable between Pass X350.5 and Cary SLP05
So what about them synergistic research designers reference x2 interconnects? 
Dynaudio Confidence C1 broken & Cap question
Rleff - Bill's a very nice guy. He doesn't think he can help me knowing the driver. He seemed shocked at the cost as was I. He wants to see a few pics before he can access damage and repair-ability.I spoke with Amilios at Dynaudio. We had a nice c... 
Dynaudio Confidence C1 broken & Cap question
I haven't heard back from Dynaudio but I will give Millersound a call - thanks for the suggestion.Having sold the LS6's I'm storing them for the gentleman who purchased them. I rolled them back into the room last night. I've been fighting a ground... 
Dynaudio Confidence C1 broken & Cap question
I was running my C1's with a pair of Nuforce 9SEV2's and noted that on some material, I could hear the cone having issues that was not pleasant. Deciding that my little copper jewels didn't have the ba, ah, current to drive the C1's, I sold my Nuf... 
Dynaudio Confidence C1 broken & Cap question
I've spoken with the Dynaudio folks who were suprised to here that one of their drivers went down. The gentleman I talked to said it was the first he's known about. Lucky me.The cost to replace is about $550 dollars. I'm hopeful they'll cut me a d... 
Pass labs X350.5 jumpers and Power cables
Last night I began again tweaking this system. I had to accept earlier that the Nuforce 9SEV2 Cary Preamp & LS6 combo was nothing short of great in our room. Now I spent x 2 on speakers and a Pass that was good but not great.Audio is funny tho... 
Pass labs X350.5 jumpers and Power cables
I just need the front handles and not the actual faceplate. The handles are $90 dollars a pair- reasonable enough for what they are. It's not that they are altogether bad, just way short of what I expected. 
Pass amps + Power Cords ??
I found that the 3 homebrews I've been using all have different sonic characteristics. They are certainly good power cords using the best Oyaide and Furutech connectors, Acrolink cable as well as cryo'd VH-Audio flavor 4 and the NEI3001. I still f... 
Pass labs X350.5 jumpers and Power cables
I called Pass yesterday regarding the cost of the faceplates. Easy to replace I'm sure but at what cost. I need to more aware of feedback score when there is none. Told that this amp wasn't even broken in and looking like it's been around for a lo... 
Pass labs X350.5 jumpers and Power cables
Ozzy, it's the setup I have now. JL Audio greatly prefers balanced and now it seems Pass prefers balanced as well. Well, Pass wins. 
Pass labs X350.5 jumpers and Power cables
After some experimenting last night I found that the Pass plugged into the wall, a dedicated circuit using 10awg copper with a Furutech outlet sounded superior to the PS Audio PPP. Thanks guys for the confirmation. Too bad about the balanced inter...
