| Upgrade my CD player or futile effort? OP, you stated "Obviously now I know going with a better CDP without a DAC is worthless." Not obvious, and not true. I recently plugged my Oppo UDP205 into my den (main) system; it had been anchoring my home theater since purchased (ca 2017) on a... | |

| Klipsch Forte ii too bright, or is it my room ? henry53 so sorry you've been in pain for so long. Good thing there's more than one speaker manufacturer in this industry, with more than one piece of associated equipment and multiple listening environments. What is the point of your post? | |
| Has anyone had a laser replaced in a Audio Research CD-3 MKII The laser assy I purchased from AR seems to be identical to the original in my CD-1, but it is not obvious how to do the remove/replace, as it seems to be attached to a floating assembly. Don't want to force anything and potentially break parts; ... | |

| More watts or better power ? What a crock of sh*t! If you follow all this advice, you'd: replace pre-amp, amp, speakers, speaker cable, interconnects, add a power conditioner/regenerator, DAC, ... Would you be any happier? Would you enjoy your listening sessions any more? ... | |
| Power cord choice? You didn't really mention this but...are you already using an outboard DAC for your ARC CD3? If not, the addition of a good outboard DAC is going to make a lot more difference in the sound profile than changing the power cord. (And no, I'm not a... | |
| Guys, this is part of the issue I am asking about in my other thread... Might be worth your while to check the owner's manual to make sure you (or someone else, if you bought used) didn't "accidentally" replace the fuses with the wrong values at some point in the past. Nothing worse than having your equipment (or you... | |
| Total System Gain Question Just plug it in, turn the preamp up to max, wait 5 minutes, and see if you have any hearing or speakers left. Geesh! (The things some folks stress about!) | |
