| Tube temperature for ARC Ref 6 I recently put Herbies Ultra Sonic tube dampers on all the tubes in my REF6. Unfortunately, I can't tell you what difference they made, as it occurred at the same time as the installation of a new set of tubes from ARC, plus pasting the tube pi... | |
| Vandersteen Sub woofers v Rythmik Subs The Martin-Logan BalancedForce subs have the ability to use a speaker cable input. I have been wondering how that might compare to RCA or XLR input. Anyone ever try this? | |
| New Tweak --- Its Fantastic @willgolf I have pasted the tubes in my preamp and amp. Instantly noticeable. As per Tim's instructions, only coat a max of 50% up from the bottom of the pin, no heavy coats and/or blobs of TC. What you do not want is the TC being pushed up fr... | |
| Downloading lossless to my iPhone? I play Redbook and Hi-Rez lossles files on my iPhone using the Onkyo player, by outputting the bits through the lightning port using the USB "camera" adapter, into a Audioquest DragonFly portable DAC, then corded Shure or UE earphones. Not as goo... | |
| New Tweak --- Its Fantastic I just want to share a few notes about my experience with TC, which I paid full price for. My system is a Equi=Core 1800/Core Power Technologies feeding everything; MacBookPro running BitPerfect and iTunes>USB Disruptor cable>Schiit Yggy (v1... | |
| ARC Ref 5se VS ARC Ref 6 Used REF6's go for about $9,000 at the moment. | |
| Martin Logan speakers I had CLS I, II and z, all driven by an ARC D115 mkII for nearly 30 years. You will love the sound of the VT130 on the Vistas. Midrange magic.Replaced them with ML CLXs driven by an ARC REF150SE.BTW, the pairing of the CLXs with the new BalancedFo... | |
| New Tweak --- Its Fantastic @oregonpapa I know, i have read the thread. I am not sure all future users will, or should have to. Hence the need for a better set of instructions. Plus pictures are invaluable. | |
| New Tweak --- Its Fantastic I received mine this past week. Will get a chance to apply it next week.I do find the application instructions lacking. No discussion of USB and tubes, for instance. Better instructions, with pictures are needed. Web based would be the way to ... | |
| DAC Suggestions Please I'm a fan of the Schiit Multibit DACs. Read up on them, here, and elsewhere.www.schiit.com | |
| Will I benefit from a new DAC that can upscale to 192 mswobo-I seemed to have convinced myself that I can hear the improvement of going from 96 to 192 kHz when comparing the same material.Take a look at the Schiit Bifrost or Modi MultiBit DACs. They are in the price range of the other options being ... | |
| Hey Willie Wonka! How easy was it to install that 4490 board in the Schiit?? Starkiller-I replaced by original DAC board with the Uber board, the 4490 sound be ht essentially the same process. It was very easy overall. The most difficult part is getting the LEDs to line back up on re-assembly.Although this is a USB board... | |
| Schiit Modi Multibit Camera adapter is good, but way more expensive!!BTW, I use one with an AQ Dragonfly, Onkyo music player app and high-rez files as my on the road music kit. Not as good as Schiit, but not bad. Waiting on Schiit to make a similar R2R USB DAC. | |
