| What AC Power Cord sounds best? It is difficult to recommend things to people without knowing all of their system but I have tried quite a few myself. I agree with albert regarding the Dominus being fine cable, but stay away from the Siltech. their cable sound like guaze; grainy... | |
| Which is the best single-ended tube amp Lamm Audio ML-2. Besides ultimate musicality and trasparency, top to bottm, this little 18 watter will trounce any Krell or Levinson, etc. bass too. This is really the best amplifier in the world. Bar none! | |
| Best Small Speaker NOT B&W's 805N? 1) Sound Dynamics RTS-3 is the best small speaker under $1000. They image beautifully and extremely musical. They are not fussy with set up either. They sound good almost where ever you drop them. You can buy them at audio advisor for $280 + stand... | |
| NBS or Siltech Have you bought your cables yet? I am comparing Siltech G3 with NBS Monitor 0. Can you contact me please. damokanyc@aol.com rgds, david | |
| JM LAB any good? Both the JM Lab & the Cubs are equally excellant speakers. The choice of either is really dependant on the rest of your system & your musical prefereces. You can't go wrong with either one in a well balanced system. The JM Lab has the edge... | |
| CAT preamp matching It seems every one is recommending you some kind of tube amp when you are looking for a solid state one. Unfortunately as fine as the CAT is, it's achilles heel is the slight grainyness in the treble & slightly forward midrange. These characte... | |
| cables for Krell KAV300i I know it's been a couple of months but here goes anyway; DUMP THE KRELL! The Pilinius is a much smoother & more musical amplifier. I never understood people's infatuation with the Krell sound. In the past I had owned a couple of top of the li... | |
| Bi-Amping - Best Way? My experience with bridging two classés has been negative in the past. The classés and many other amps seem to have a harder sound with an unpleasant edge in the treble once bridged. I do not see the benefit of this setup when you sacrifice musica... | |
| Best Power Conditioner under $1,000? Try a Pac Super Idos. Though technically not a power conditioner, it will clean up your sound better than anything I have heard to date without any of the nasties introduced by into the system by all power conditioners out there. | |
| ARC Amp for ProAc Response 2.5? You already have a CJ pre. Try to buy one of CJs Premiere series amps. AR is a good match with Proacs but CJs are magical with it. | |
| Goldmund cable for goldmund amp.... The nordost will be a good match but my favourite cables for the moment are one of the new NBS Monitor series. They have that magic which seems to be missing from most of the great cables including the SPMs. | |
| Bi-Amping - Best Way? The following suggestion really depends on the rest of your system (especially the preamp) & the brand of your speakers. It also depends on whether you want to bridge your amps for power or just split them to drive different drivers in your sp... | |
| Will a Line Conditioner give better picture and sound? Cables like all other components are integral to any system and can affect the sound as much as buying any new electronic component. You will also benefit from a power conditioner especially if you do not have dedicated lines. What is suitable has... | |

| Help!! I know what you are looking for! I had not really heard CYMBALS!!! in my system until very recently either. My system: Genesis 200, Mark Levinson 33, 32, 30.6, Genesis Digital Lens + CEC TL-0. You can definitely benefit from getting rid of the Z s... |
