| Tube or SS DAC/Player with Tube Preamp? I enjoy tubes in my pre-amp and mono-blocks (Atma-sphere). However, I am using an Accuphase DP-75 CD player and am struck with the musicality of this SS unit! I think that at times, we're all hung-up on what is trendy rather than HOW IT SOUND IN M... | |
| Any speaker cable's sound quality just blown you away? I went "Ga-Ga" over the Nordost SPM's (4 meter bi-wire into Rogers LS 3/5a's with the AB-1 passive subs.) Power is by Atma-sphere M60-Mk 2.2 mono's. The SPM's just seem to have an incredible sense of timing and pace. Maybe there are other cables t... | |
| Upgrading electrical-things to do? Hey, J k, you forgot to mention another advantage from you friend's rewiring project...providing a college fund for the electrician's children! Outstanding! That's some SERIOUS power distribution! Has anyone ever run a remote gas/diesel generator ... | |
| are we are own worst enemies? Supply and demand! First, it has been my experience that many high end dealers will discount 10-15% off list on most products. Certain manufactures, even though they make great equipment, produce in large volumes, have very loose distribution, rea... | |
| Ultimate Outlet Chang or Power Wedge Seriously consider a Top Gun Power Block from Custom Power Cords. This is a two time T.A.S Golden Ears award winner. I would agree and disagree with Gthrush 1---a dedicated circuit will improve the power supply loading problems (especially true fo... | |

| Best AC cord for Mesa Baron? I have always liked the Custom Power Cords by David Blair. His "Top Gun" power cord won a T.A.S. Golden Ears award. I'm not trying to be mercenary but I have upgraded to this cord and have his entry level cord available. Good luck which ever way y... | |
| Svetlana vs Electro-Harmonix EL-34 tubes I found that the Svet's had a slightly more detailed high end when used in an EAR 834 integrated amp. | |
| Power cable suggestions for sony 9000es I am a true believer of David Blair's Custom Power Cords. The Top Gun is simply amazing! And while you're at it, you should consider his Top Gun Power Block. Both have received a "Golden Ear" award from T.A.S. You can contact the good folks at Sou... | |
| The best CD Player for the money If you don't mind used,the Accuphase DP-75 is the last CD player you will probably own. The thing is so musical you will probably forget about analog, DVD-A, or SACD. Plus, it can also be used as a processor! Some owners are trading this model in ... | |
| Hate to ask...... I don't hate HT I find it INCREADABLY expesive for premium equipment, requires more space than I have available and will require massive accoustic considerations (usually room reconstuction) and logistic considerations. Most new movies are crap an... | |
| which powercord? jps,esp,shunyata....? I'm a true believer in Custom Power Cords by David Blair. The entry level Mod. 11 are a great buy for the money. From there, I would jump directly to the Top Gun an incredible power cord that you won't be disappointed with. |
