| A warm and rich sounding power cord I just made a #1 and #2 from the Chris VenHaus website with his new wire. The new VH Audio cable is much better than the Belden 83803 cords I recently made and several other more expensive, well known cords. He will make them for you or has all th... | |
| Excellent Audience Customr Service Audience has given great customer service to me as well. They actually sent the replacement pair of interconnects first and then I returned the pair that had older style connectors. The new ones are redesigned and have a more solid contact. | |
| Platforms: granite, marble, maple or other? Jafox, I researched and purchased some maple cutting boards a few months ago. It was suggested to me to avoid butcher block type boards as audio shelves because the grain would transmit the vibration vertically rather than dissipate it. Also, ther... | |
| How many Maggie owners have special stands? Philjolet, Grant Vander Mye developed a clamp for the edge of the maggies or the option of using the stile screws to attach the struts to pre-existing holes with the 3.6. For the 1.6 there is an edge clamp which is shown on the website.Magnepan st... | |
| Right Angle Power Cord's Marinco offers a right angle adapter for their 320 IEC and other same size AC connectors. It would presumably work with the Wattgate 320 or 350 as well . Scroll down on this webpage to "15RA":Marinco rt.angle adapterYou would need about 1.5" clear... | |
| 2 REL Storms or 1 Stadium? Statman, I'm sure you are right the Stentor III is an awesome sub and I have thought about it as a possible future upgrade.They are beautifully made and very musical subs. The Stadium has been trouble free and it's on 24/7. | |
| 2 REL Storms or 1 Stadium? Actually the Stadium III is the entry into the upper level REL subs with an ARM loaded cabinet like the Stentor III and Studio III. | |
| PS Audio's Ultimate Outlet I had a UO HC when my system was cdp-pre-amp and it seemed to be ok with the preamp, but not the amp or cdp. When I changed to a cdp-passive-amp I could hear substantial degradation of the sound on either the amp or cdp. The transparency of the pa... | |
| Wattgate or Jena outlets? Sonic_genius, I have thought about the possible negative effects cryo treating may have on the non-metallic components of the items treated, like the jackets or connectors on powercords. Can you elaborate more on what experience you have had with ... | |
| 2 REL Storms or 1 Stadium? Is the bass from the Storm (which version?)not integrated well enough in the room? The single Stadium III in my room has ample bass. The orientation and final placement is according to the setup instructions on the Sumiko site. I use the high leve... | |
| Wattgate or Jena outlets? Check out these double cryo receptacles from the people who make the Audioharma Cable Cooker. The Hubbell receptacles, which Jena uses also, are very well made and the cryo treatment provides outstanding sonic benefits.Audio Excellence | |
| Opinoins on SS.amps. Do a search in the ads for McCormack. I currently see a DNA-2 Deluxe and DNA-2 Rev A for sale. Looks like both amps include a Synergistic Research A/C Master Coupler cord, which is a good bonus. The Deluxe with SMc Audio mods would give you what y... | |
| Dedicated power lines-getting started Xblue, I agree the facts are very simple here. The vast majority of the interest in Belden 83802 for powercords has been generated on the Audio Asylum by ChrisVH and talk of his designs for approaching two years. That's where I heard about them fi... | |
| Dedicated power lines-getting started Subaruguru, It's baffling why you "have no idea what Belden says about 110v use" (of their 83802, etc.). This must be at least the fourth time I have referenced the reply from Belden tech support in this forum. They say:"These cables are not desig... | |
