| Halcyonics under my tt. Wow I tried The Silencer under my ARC CD-7 CDP, ARC Ref-3 pre and ARC Ref 110 amp. When I put my pre and power amp on the Silencer, the changes were minimal. A bit like changing the tube dampers. There were there, and were positive, but they not warra... | |
| ARC LS26 power cords, interconnects, tweaks I would try Shunyata Anaconda Helix Alpha PC if I were you. It should give some more HF air and sparkle. This the cable that ARC uses at their factory to voice their products. I use Anacondas myself and are very pleased with the result.You should ... | |
| Krell KAV-400xi vs. Parasound A21+P3 From my expirience, and I own 400xi among other gear (Primare stack, ARC Reference stack), the bass is def one of the Krell's strong points. It actually outperforms my $20k ARC pre/pwr combo in that department !I def would try it with different sp... | |
| Help on Esoteric P-500 transport The laser may well need replacement. | |
| Audio Research Reference CD-7 BTW guys - I just got a few dosens of NOS 6N6P tubes, directly from Ukraine ($2 a pop ... you can also have them for $25 from ebay). That tube is a direct replacemnt to 6H30 tube used in CD-7. That was even confirmed by "the 6H30 man" (Viktor Khom... | |
| ARC Ref 3: Tung-Sol 6550 in power supply? i didn't ask re PC'sJmcgrogan2 did. | |
| Audio Aero Capitole 192 MK II se upgrade Just two. My Capitole mk II used Hovland Musicap 0,1uF, your Reference prolly uses the same, but you have to check for yourself. Just replace them with same value, Teflon V-Cap capaciors. I belive they are 40 each. | |
| ARC Ref 3: Tung-Sol 6550 in power supply? Jmcgrogan2 -> ARC uses Shunyata Anaconda Helix Alpha PCs at their factory. Oneobgyn ->99% of manufacturers stick to current production tubes. So even though, SED 6550 that is used in all ARC gear may well be the best current production tube ... | |
| ARC Ref 3: Tung-Sol 6550 in power supply? Marco_esposito - what TungSol 6550 tube did you try ? NOS Black Plate/Gray Plate from the 50s-60s or the new production TungSol "reissue" ?I'm asking this question since those are two very different tubes. | |
| Halcyonics under my tt. Wow Could you ask about the TS140 as well ? | |
| Cary 500 mono blocks I dorove Audiostatic DCM-5 with Cary CAD-500MB monos. The sound was trully spectacular - fast, transparent and pure. Those are some trully great amps. VERY underrated. | |
| Autos with stock awsome sound systems; Recomend? I have been lucky enough to spend some time with an Audi A8 equipped with the Bang & Olufsen "advanced sound system", and it is by far the best audio system I've ever heard in a car, period . . . whether stock or aftermarket/custom. I second t... | |
| Wilson Sophia II vs. Thiel CS3.7 Tom,Then let's say, for the sake of argument, that the Duette is overpriced for what it is. It is a small 2-way bookshelf speaker, designed to operate AGAINST the rear wall. If you move them into the room, the whole bass disappears. The 3.7 compet... | |
| Wilson Sophia II vs. Thiel CS3.7 I have done a direct A/B comparison of Thiel 3.7 and Wilson Audio Duettes.I would be amazed if the outcome was different. Duette is a small two way bookshelf speaker, and the thiels are a big 4-way floorstanders. Such a comparisons are really mean... | |
