| Aardvark Ethernet noise isolator Don’t have them in my system but I’m told that in addition to the usual benefits of passing the signal through mini-transformers, the Pink Faun LAN isolator device works to shielding against high-frequency (HF) noise originating from the LAN netwo... | |
| USB revisited Check out Pink Faun’s upcoming Ultra USB card. I expect this to make a tsunami wave in the sea of USB connections! - Ultra OCXO clocked - Only externally powered - Super capacitor system - EMI isolation https://audiophilestyle.com/forum... | |
| Has Anyone heard The Boulder 1021 CD player? Yes I have heard the Boulder 1021 in my own system. A dealer brought it over along with some other high end equipment.I'm using the CD7 as my standard player and I have not heard a better CD player than it before......until now. I'm a strong suppo... | |
| CARDAS Fans: Golden vs. Neutral vs. Presence? Muralman1, it's entirely possible that it's MY system that is unbalanced and that the Golden Reference speaker cable brought it back to neutral. After all, what we are listening to is the TOTAL SUM of all our components. Faced with too many degree... | |
| CARDAS Fans: Golden vs. Neutral vs. Presence? I'm using Golden Ref speaker cables and in my opinion they sound just fine. There are too many variables in the system to say what causes differing sounds, harshness, mouth, head sounds, fat bass etc. It could be caused by so many parts of the ent... | |
| Wilson MAXX musicallity and sound Like Dave says in his descriptions of the Sumiko Master Set procedure, getting the focus right in bass, mid, treble and everything in between is very difficult but achievable. If you want to DIY, you can use mono recordings to assist in getting ba... | |
| Wilson MAXX musicallity and sound In addition to speaker placement (so critical for Wilson speakers, need to get them right down to the last 1/2 inch), room treatment you can also explore vibration control.You didn't mention how you are placing your equipment but in my experience ... | |
| Have you noticed that... When you run out of money, you start enjoying the music... heh heh | |
| Best tube amp for Wilson Watt/Puppy I used to use a Krell KSA 200s sometime back with my Watt Puppy 6s (with the new tweeter) and although the system is not the same, it probably sounds somewhat similar to your current setup. If so, there is plenty of room for improvement on the amp... | |
| New Hilary Hahn disc Thanks for the heads up. I have a few of her recordings for Mozart and Bach and she is good. Raving review in Amazone also. Will try out this new one. | |
| A Newbie's First Week Impressions -- Vinyl Rules Hi Maineiac, I suppose for used records, you will have to clean them before playing. I never did get into used stuff, bought all my records new. I suppose technology and the purchasing power of audiophiles have moved on since the 80s. In those day... | |
| A Newbie's First Week Impressions -- Vinyl Rules I have a system in place for cleaning vinyl without machines that has served me since the 80s.Don't clean them.I'm serious! The more you clean vinyl, the more dirty they get and the more pops and crackles you hear. Most of the records I have (that... | |
| Do I really want the musicians in my room? Listen to live music only and enjoy the venue if you system is resolved enough. | |
| Audio Research CD7's 6H30 tube rolling I thought that by the nature of what the 6H30 was designed for, tight tolerances were standard and that all 6H30DR tubes manufactured were already matched very tightly.The tube store where I purchased the NOS 6H30DRs from has a matching service fo... | |
| Review: NuForce 9 V2 SE Amplifier The sound you hear is the total contribution of a whole lot of equipment starting with source, head-amp (if any), pre-amp, then the Nuforces and then speakers.For the kind of sound you describe hearing, how do you know what you are listening to? W... |
