| Are manufacturer AC cables good enough? bikerbw:" would you chance a lot of returns or bad reviews because you cheaped out on the cord." I think most notable reviewers use their own upgraded interconnects, speaker cables and power cables in their reviews. | |
| Are manufacturer AC cables good enough? I wonder how many of the nay sayers who claim power cables do not make a difference have even tried upgraded PC's? To me, they either have not tried or can not hear. And it is usually them who cite science to explain away any possible benefit. ... | |
| Considering A SS amplifier Hi again Neonknight, Just noticed I have the exact same room set up as you...stereo furniture, components and TV on long wall, speakers and fireplace on short end wall. big Room 18 x 40. I have nice (AU24 SX) power cables and interconnects, an... | |
| Mola Mola Makua Pre. / DAC If you are interested in the Mola Mola stuff I suggest you call Bill Parrish at GTT Audio in NJ. He is super nice and very informative. Tell him Ken Kyser recommended. I auditioned a Luxman integrated and it did not do it for me. Nice knobs th... | |
| Mola Mola Makua Pre. / DAC ...and, my N802's are dead quiet now with the Audionet and the Classe.I had constant noise...hiss etc with the BHK stuff. PS Audio's customer service is great, but they had trouble hearing the noise on their bench that I heard in my system. | |
| Mola Mola Makua Pre. / DAC Hi, I have two systems, but swapped components around quite a bit.The amps were the hardest to move, obviously, as both the BHK 250 and my Classe CA 2300 weigh close to 100 lbs. With the Salons, I exclusively used the Classe 2300, which I consid... | |
| Mola Mola Makua Pre. / DAC Hello Pete (Seadog), I now have the Makua with internal DAC and Kaluga amps. Awesome. The PS Audio stuff is now gone. Night and day better to me, and oh so pretty! Network straight into the Makua, I have Roon Nucleus on my network. The Kalug... | |
| Considering A SS amplifier Hello NeonKnight,I have just sold and moved on from a complete PS Audio setup with DS DAC, BHK Pre and BHK 250 amp. I have two systems, so swapping gear was easy. In the end, I found the PS Audio all a bit 'less clear' and less resolving than ni... | |
| 10 Audio Cable Myths and Facts I auditioned several nice cables at various price points. I bought Audience AU24 SX PC's and Balanced Interconnects.(Expensive, but not the most expensive I tried). They sounded much better to me, my lady, and my friend. Blind tests. Big diffe... | |
| Emotiva not so good Hi, I also had an XPA2. It was my first 'nice' stereo amp. Replaced it with a Classe CA-2300 ex demo. Wow. Bye Bye Emotiva. It was ok for the cost. Yes the Parasound Halo also nice, a sweet spot in the market I think. All of these are heav... | |
| Are Bowers and Wilkins speakers overpriced? Used Nautilus 802's are not overpriced! I like them better than all the 802 iterations that have come since! | |
| Disappointing On Mcintosh......help Well if this discussion shows anything, it is that people like different sounding systems! But it is quite interesting how McIntosh discussions evoke such passion and opinion. I can think of no other brand which causes such divisiveness. Or bra... | |
| Disappointing On Mcintosh......help So appropriate to me this thread. 6 months ago my Classe SSP-800 failed for the third time. Decided NOT to waste any more money on old DAC and multi channel extras. So I set off to find a new DAC and Pre amp, and love warm smooth sounding music... | |
| Which one? Paradigm persona 3f, Revel Studio2, Audiosolution Figaro L, Goldenear reference Hello, I can comment on the Revel, Paradigm and B&W. I have had 802N's for some time. So I have auditioned the newer 802's, and find them too bright. I still enjoy the Nautilus is one of my systems.I wanted to like the Paradigms. Pretty, c... | |
| Audio Rack Selection Hi, have you seen the beautiful hardwood racks from Timbernation in PA? My new rack is strong, beautiful, reasonable, and holds similar equipment. I modified his stock dimensions to slightly deeper and bigger clearances. Love it. Tiger Maple s... |
