| Cable "burning": Real or VooDoo ??? Ray, thanks, I understand. The phenomenon is real enough. | |
| Cable "burning": Real or VooDoo ??? Record it to what end Ray? To prove that the break -in phenomenon exists? | |
| Spectral DMA-180S2 Fuses---2A or 4A on 220V? Use the lower value just to be on the safe side. If it does not blow, you're fine. If it does time after time, go to 4A.I would imagine both values are slow blow. | |
| problem with Zanden signature DAC I am using the same setup as yours. To my ears the sound using the H2S is easily superior to that of the other two. This is also, what Zanden suggests, if I recall right, the best way to go. So why bother at all? Just my two cents...... | |
| Need directions - Connecting components Without knowing your gear I would say that "separated" on the Pioneer means that its preamp section is separated from its amp section. So switch to Separated, hook up an interconnect cable to the Pre-jacks output of the Pioneer and go to the input... | |
| Mosaic Records vinyl prices dropping Hello Kubla,So nice to see that your're still around. Possibly the Jazz afficionados are slowly dying out and those that remain ( like me ) have had their fill. In other words, the market may be saturated. Well heeled Asia is probably mostly buyin... | |

| Jazz Musician's Sonic Signature nice thread!Oscar Peterson, John Lewis, Keith Jarret, Chick Correa, FAts Wallers, Lennie Tristano | |
| how to fix ground loop him? Jim above is right, If his advice does not help, try to separate the CATV coax from the rest as far as possible and ovoid any wiring loops in your layout. | |
| MSB owners tread : upgrades, comparisons etc. I can only tell you about Femto or no Femto in a Request Audio Server. Internal DAC there is by MSB. With the Femto clock (price is not quite 10K US) ALL the necessary parameters which we audiophiles love so much, improved tremendously. Even if I'... | |
| Setting up a 2 channel listening room I would furnish the room first, carpets and such, set up my gear and listening position and just listen how it sounds. Only then I would consider how to deal with side wall reflections and standing waves. You could of course also use some form of ... | |
| Suggestions For A Good USB Digital Cable If you live in the US, get in touch with "The Cable Company', ask their advice, borrow a selection from their library and listen.I personally like the new Synergystic. | |
| Amplifier Choosing ZD542 is right. Also the older Defy 7 are excellent and fairly simple to repair if something goes wrong. Even if you managed to split the Jadis i35 and use only the "amp-part", from what I remember, the Defy is more powerful and has better dynamic... | |
| Should quality PC's be plugged into a conditioner? Sunnyjim,I've used the 116s for many years and never found that they degraded the sound. In my opinion you can safely use the Wedge and will probably not hear any difference for the better or for the worse if you compare the sound, if the juice is... |
