| Underwood Hifi / Underwood Wally... Walter is a great resource. I’m very happy with my LSA-10 speakers. My sense is his business model is based on selling (or owning) product lines he personally views as solid, and cutting retailing, advertising and, for some products, manufacturin... | |
| Bang for the buck vs. “money no object” cable recommendations Another vote for Silversmith Fidelium speaker cables. Very happy with mine. | |
| Wireworld Silver Eclipse 8 Speaker Cables I have a Boulder 866 and am waiting for a set of Silversmith Fidelium speaker cables -- should get them in a few days. PM me if you want to compare notes. David | |
| What preamp to pair with Spectron I used a Supratek Syrah with Spectron M II with great results. Good luck. | |
| Isolating CDP from weak wood floor Thanks for the quick turnaround everyone. I appreciate it. In the interests of full disclosure, I need to redo my foundation entirely and re-sister (as they already have been sistered) the joists. My dirt floor basement looks like a convention of ... | |
| Has anyone compared Oyaide against FIM I can confirm Stehno's experience. I just switched from the FIM to an cryoed Oyaide outlet from Alan. Definately an upgrade and a very noticable one at that. Money well spent.David | |
| DC Metro Sorry I missed it, too. Please keep me on the list for next time.David in Takoma Park | |
| Please recommend CD player w/volume under $5500 I run a Granite tube CDP direct to a Spectron Musician III amp to Von Schweikert VR5-HSEs and I just sold a Supratek Syrah tube pre. I tested the system with and without the pre for a good while. I decided to sell the pre because I preferred the s... | |
| Aurios Pro for speakers on carpet I may be wrong, but with speakers, isn't the whole point to keep them from moving when they vibrate, as opposed to isolating them from outside vibrations? I think the last thing to do is to put them on aurios, which would allow the speaker to move... | |
| Power cord for tubed cdp I tested a bunch of PCs about 3 years ago on my Granite Tube CDP Model 657. I liked the Walker Audio Omega Mikro Planar more than anything else I tried (which included Elrod (which I use on my amp), VD Nite, Stealth M-21, Genghis Khan and a few ot... | |
| Audience Au24 Bi-wire or w/Jumper with N803 I like the AU24 very much. Two years ago, I spent a few months comparing the AU24 biwire to a number of other speaker cables--stealth, granite, maple and a few others. Purist Audio Venustas beat out the Au24 to my ear in my system (below), but onl... | |
| Can anyone recommend a smooth, rich CD player? I second Entrope above with regard to introducing a tube if you want to veer towards a richer sound. Re the 508.24, I owned one and a/b'd it against a Granite 657 tube player. I and all who heard the comparison preferred the Granite. It wasn't eve... | |
| Anybody tried 20th Anniversary Purist cables? Karmapolice,If you want to go the PAD route, you might try a set of PAD Venusta speaker cables. Two years ago, I tested them against the Au 24 and preferred them in my system: Granite 657 tube CDP, Supratek Syrah, Spectron Musician II (now III) an... | |
| Von VR4 JR's - Looking for right 5/7 Channel Amp I think that speaker was voiced with the Spectron amp. You might start there. | |
| cd players with volume control I'd look at the Granite 657 tube CDP. I've had mine for a few years and still love it. I've run it directly to Granite tube monoblocks, as well as a Spectron Musician II. |
