| Sell King Cobra s and buy F I M Gold ? I was introduced to the Powersnakes line through a friend who has King Cobra V2 throughout his system. I own a KC and 2 Vipers in my system. Recently this friend emailed me to inform me that he had found something better than the KCv2. Acoustic Ze... | |
| Finally gonna buy new speakers, ideas? I would second the suggestion for Dunlavy. I too own the Aleph 2s and they Drive my Dunlavy 4s very well. I have also used the Alephs with my Meadowlark Kestrels (their least expensive model) they have some higher priced models too. The sonics of ... | |
| Harm. Tech. Pro9 or Anal. Plus Oval9 Jay, I have owned both the HT Pro 9 and Analysis Plus Silver Oval. I prefer the HT to the AP. To me the HT is more neutral and truer. The AP as Gunbei has mentioned is state of the art in soundstage width, the HT is also excellent in soundstage wi... | |
| PC s and/or conditioners etc for BAT I have the VK150SEs and use the Shunyata Viper V2s on them plugged directly into the wall. I use a P300 on my front end. I did try a Sound Application CF-X line conditioner with everything plugged into it and I can say that it is fantastic, among ... | |
| Best Tube Amp under 10K? I also agree with the BAT recommends. I have the VK150SEs and couldn't be happier. | |
| One Channel Lower Output With XLR Cables I had the same problem and it turned out that it was one of the cables. | |
| Mark Levinson 39 My advice is to consider the Meridian 508.24 and Wadia 860 or 861. you can get the Wadia for about the same price used, and I have had both and I think the Wadia is a lot better, but it is a taste thing. The Levinson is more laid back, while the W... | |
| Hydra vs. Ensemble Jeff- I ran a thread asking about the CF-X line conditioner and a guy responede who had tried both the Hydra and CF-X. He thought the CF-X wass better, but probably not worth the extra money. I bet you can find it if you run a search on either Sou... | |
| Powersnakes power cords Yeah I thought the King Cobra on my CD was one of the most startling improvments I have done. I also have 2 Vipers on my amps. Lucky is the man with a Hydra, I inquired about getting one and the wait was 8 weeks. | |
| Hydra vs. Ensemble Jeff- I haven't heard either, though I have been wanting to get my hands on a Hydra, those things are rare and there is a 8 week wait if you want one new. I did demo for a couple of weeks the Sound Application CF-X line conditioner. This thing is ... | |
| Tired of SS amp. Steve- We have almost the same system. I was using the Wadia 860x to Pass Aleph 2s with Dunlavy 4s. I moved on to BAT VK150se tube monos. The BAT amps have better bass and more extended highs than the Pass Amps, while at the same time easier to li... | |
| UPS or should I Say Oooops I am involved in a damage dispute with UPS right now. I sent a CD player in original packing plus double boxed and I added air cushion packing around the unit. I arrived with an internal part unattached and a chip out of the corner. UPS totally ig... | |
| cd players with volume control Acuujim- You really ought to give the Wadia 860x or the new 861 a shot, I owned the CD50 at the same time as the Wadia and it is way better than the CD50 in my system. True you need to run the Wadia at the top end of it's volume output for maximum... | |
| You wouldn t believe it s good, but... Not unexpectedly good but great nonetheless. Two CDs Chris Speed "emit" and Cong Vu "pure" | |
| What s your latest buy? Happy with it? I have had all kinds of stuff in and out of my system lately, cables costing big $ etc... the improvment that is on par with any of the expensive upgrades is Auric Illuminator CD treatment, if they could put that sound in a cable it would probably... |
