| Acid jazz/downtempo recommendations ? Check out Peace Orchestra, it is done by Peter Kruder and is an excellent recording. | |
| Are Tara Labs cables a good match for me? Tara cables for me were smooth, excellent imaging, good soundstage and full bass, if your sound leans toward bright they might work for you. The Tara I have owned is the Master Gen 2. | |
| Power Conditioners You may want to add the Sound Application CF-X to your list, I own both and the CF-X beats the Hydra hands down. | |
| Nordost Valhalla vs. Acoustic Zen Wow you guys are right diffrent cables sound radically diffrent to diffrent systems and ears. I would say that Quattro Fil would work better in a bright system than Acoustic Zen Silver Ref. I would say that could be the only problem with Silver Re... | |
| Nordost Valhalla vs. Acoustic Zen Keith, did you try the Valhalla or just the Quattro Fil? To my ear the Quattro Fil is very sterile sounding compared to the Silver Ref. I did an experiment in my recording studio and recorded the same music through each cable, and then played back... | |
| Advice on how to get FedEx to pay up on damage I had a situation similar with UPS, they damaged a CD player I had sold to someone. I had insured the player and it was obvious that had hadled the box roughly. They denied the claim on the grounds that the player wasn't packed properly. I marched... | |
| Very good Balanced XLR cable, suggestions? Tim I tried a bunch of diffrent interconnects and was the happiest with Acoustic Zen Silver Reference XLR. It is not a laid back or romatic sounding cable, it is very true to the source. To my ear it just passes more information through than any o... | |
| is BAT good with non-BAT components? I run a Wadia into the VK150se amps and it matches wonderfully. | |
| Nordost Valhalla Question You might consider Acoustic Zen. I switched from Quattro Fil/SPM and found the Zen all around better for 1/4 the price. | |
| Who knows about ACOUSTIC ZEN? Rayhall is right on with the description that it gives you the sensation that there is nothing between you and the music. It also give me the illusion that you get more of a you are there feeling like you are in the same room as the performance, i... | |
| Seek Integrated for 1000 dollars, new / used, suggestions? I would go for a Creek 4330 used and spend the remainder on a better CD player. I have owned a lot of amps etc.. and the Creek is darn good. Good luck | |
| Cables with the best highs I would suggest you give Acoustic Zen Satori a listen. I have tried many diffrent cables and have always heard strenghts and weaknesses, with the Acoustic Zen it just seemed to be right. It is quite reasonably price too. | |
| Equi=Tech or Shunyata / Hydra If you are looking for the king of PLCs, you should also put the Sound Application CF-X on your list. I own 2 Hydras as well as a CF-X, and in my estimation I think the CF-X beats the Hydras. The Hydras do lower the noise floor, but to my ear ther... | |
| Harmonic Tech Vs Acoustic Zen I have owned HT Pro 9, Silway 2, and Pro 11 AC. I now own AZ Satori, Silver Ref interconnect and Krakatoa power cord. In my opinion Acoustic Zen is WAY better that Harmonic Tech, not even close. In fact I think it is possibly even one of the best ... | |
| Any advise to improve my system I would start by switching from Harmonic Tech to Acoustic Zen, they are about the same price. I have had all Harmonic Tech cables and Nordost SPM and Quattro Fil, as well as NBS Monitor 2. My system just got right with the Acoustic Zen cables, Sil... |
