Anyone HEARD the qol 'signal completion' device? Sabai, yes, your system is at a good place in terms of definition/detail when you can hear such things. One of the attributes of the QOL is that it does tend to add more of that 3D or "rounded" nature to the images. | |
Anyone HEARD the qol 'signal completion' device? Sabai, thanks; I try to be clear but also balanced in my assessment of products. I returned the unit for the reasons stated above. | |
Eminent Technology LFT-VIIa I ran the stacked LFT-8's prior to reviewing. If you would like to discuss your utilization of them and the many variables available to you just shoot me an email. :) | |
Anyone HEARD the qol 'signal completion' device? I conducted my assessment of QOL in my own room with multiple systems. | |
Anyone HEARD the qol 'signal completion' device? The QOL is no different than any other device which is non-necessary in the signal path (i.e. passive networks on cables, power conditioning/filtering, etc). It offers potentially increased sense of separation between instruments and a more 3-D so... | |
magnepan 1.7 or 3.7 vs spendor s8e Even though what I just stated is a universal truth, I suppose I should add "imo". ;) | |
magnepan 1.7 or 3.7 vs spendor s8e Do your best to own both technologies, as no one speaker can bring complete satisfaction. | |
VAC Ren Mk III / Sig mkII Preamplifier with SS Amp The Signature MkII does indeed pair extremely well with a good number of SS amps. When I reviewed it I used it with Jeff Rowland's 501 Monos, and have used it with the Coda CS I believe, as well as Cambridge Audio Azur 840W's, and on the tubed sid... | |
Grills ON or Grills OFF? Grills are one of the greatest banes of the audio industry. Case in point, I heard the Goldenear Triton speaker recently, what a disapppointment; the plastic grill and grill cloth are major impediments to performance. Just terrible decision in ter... | |
My Final Amplifier Purchase - What Would You Buy? Didn't read all the posts; my gut reaction - Don't buy another amp, buy another set of speakers. Run two diferent types/technologies of speakers and I believe you will find far more enjoyment than simply alternative amplification. :) No other chan... | |
Anyone HEARD the qol 'signal completion' device? Koestner, creative thinking; I like that. I suggest you do that experiment. Let us know if you fry out anything in the signal path! :) | |
Speaker stand height Here's another idea which is unconventional but you might love the sound of it; turn them on their side, like a center speaker. You might be shocked at how the sound changes when they are turned, let's say, on their side with tweeters inward. That... | |
EE Minimax Plus DAC vs. Rega DAC I hasten to add, I do not agree with the statements of comparison of the EE to some other DACs here; I can't, as I have not yet heard it in comparison. :) However, the Minimax DAC Plus when Opamp rolled is QUITE the different DAC from stock version. | |
EE Minimax Plus DAC vs. Rega DAC I just posted a separate thread detailing the proper Opamps and locations for them as recommended by Cimmaron Technology. I agree; Alex Yeung should do an all out effort at a SS only Minimax DAC. | |
Anything better than 1.7 Maggies IF you can find it (doubtful), the Kingsound Prince II is far better imo. The Prince II would cost about three times as much new and likely about twice as much as the 1.7 used, but worth it. I reviewed and own the Kingsound King for Dagogo.com |
