| Parasound JC1's vs. Sim Audio W10 Sean, I agreed with you re the Vienna's leaning towards the fat spectrum v the lean side. that is why I bought them.there are not many neutral products, just someone's own version of neutral - which is a legitimate reason. Muralman - Yes all the w... | |
| Inverted phase preamps? Yes, it brings it back to an even number so no need to do anything. | |
| Parasound JC1's vs. Sim Audio W10 Sean. You seem to be getting a little technical for me at least.Not sure how you know that Nordost have an impedance of over 100+ ohms. The only technical information on thye Nordost or Harmonic technology site ie resistance of approx 0.002 ohms p... | |
| Inverted phase preamps? Tvad. Probably a bit of an exaggeration saying most manufacturers. Good to see you are reading :)Having the phase invert on the pre is certainly easier. I can't say I use it a lot on my pre thou, except for a couple of LP's. Generally I notice it ... | |
| Inverted phase preamps? Most manufacturors recommend to reverse the speaker cables and the speaker end. I do this with my cj prem 350 which inverts phase.cheers | |
| Looking for an amp to drive Eidolons Vision. Try the cj prem 350. It has nice tight bass and has dynamic life in the upper mids/treble which is somewhat tube like. you will save a bundle in doing so as well. The UK importer of Avalon and cj used them together at the last UK hifi show and the... | |
| Parasound JC1's vs. Sim Audio W10 Sean, absolutely agree with you. The mahlers do have a rounded big bass. That was the biggest difference between the Pass X350.5 and cj prem 350. Bass was a lot tighter and more musical on the cj. Someone who owns a speaker with leaner sounding ba... | |
| VPI Ring Clamp I have had my HRX for about 18 mnths now. Both rubber belt around the platter have cracked and broken. Also I have had one of the motor belts snap as well.Have you guys noticed that if you look cafefully around there are cracks all around the rubb... | |
| Parasound JC1's vs. Sim Audio W10 Zormi. I really wanted to like the JC-1's. The bass was definately better the second time round, but it had no life in the upper mids and top end. Just plain boring. I really think parasound need to change there caps as no one in their right mind ... | |
| Parasound JC1's vs. Sim Audio W10 Denf, Zormi. For what it is worth I have now listended to the Pass X350.5's, JC1's one more time, bryston 7bsst and the cj premier 350.In my system, the cj prem 350 sounds overall the best. It has the tightest (jc1 was pretty tight as well) and mo... | |
| BAT vs. Quicksilver Another option worth exploring if you can afford are the cj premier 350 SS amp. This is a great sounding amp with that tube like mids and highs and SS bipolar bass to control the woofers. sounds great with rock and electronic music.try to listen t... | |
| VPI Ring Clamp There is one side benefit of the outer ring. It places less stress on your cartridge, as the record is completely flat so VTA is easier to adjust and your cartridge will last longer. | |
| New Air Suspension Footers for VPI TNT James. thanks for the info, I would go back to Bob at elusive disc and ask for a part refund. He clearly has not bothered to treat you as a good customer and ask VPI to supply the upgrade for the HRX only. That is bollocks stating that was/is the ... | |
| New Air Suspension Footers for VPI TNT Jameswei, I assume this is what was supplied.http://www.elusivedisc.com/prodinfo.asp?number=HW-A1110BI would think that for HRX owners that you would not need the 4 steel towers and feet, just the cup and balls - at a considerably lower price than... | |
| Aesthetix Calypso and Herron VTSP 2 Sounds like the calypso is unreliable with the stk tubes. This is a common issue with all Aesthetix products. I had the same trouble a few years ago with an IO that I promptly returned to the dealer. Don't get me wrong they sound very good, but is... |
