| VAC Sigma Preamplifier Front Meter / Thoughts / MC Cartridge The VAC Phi Alpha and Phi Beta preamps were from a similar build timeframe for VAC and in their manuals it states the following: “Meter: Indicate the operating voltages within the unit. This will vary somewhat due to fluctuations in power line vol... | |
| Please tutor me on some integrated amp basics. Here is an off the grid suggestion. I switched to these from Audience AU24SE cables a few months ago and really like how well they perform in my system. https://luminousaudio.com/collections/speaker-cables/products/synchestra-signature-speaker-c... | |

| Audioquest upper end copper IC's sound ???? These are great replys but I’m afraid this 2004 post is a little dated to be addressed currently. I’ll assume the OP has pursued some cable choices in the past 14 years and that this discussion should once again be allowed to quietly close. | |
| North East Florida Audio Society I suggest you contact House of Stereo | |

| Tidal not working on mac mini My Tidal access was down last evening which I noticed about 10pm EST. Normally accessed through Roon. After trying to access directly it appeared Tidal was having some technical difficulties. This morning (9 hours later) I was able to log in an... | |
| Help me pick from my sub-$1200 shortlist I have a pair of the LS50s and they excel if given proper quality amplification. In addition they absolutely should be placed on a quality stand that has some appropriate mass. The degree of improvement from placing them on stands was much more th... | |
