Power cable break in? @lak I just left my pre amp on for a couple days. It's a VAC tubed pre. | |
Power cable break in? @audphile1 Yeah I got all of that now and it's good to go. Interesting how different PC's will mate with different pieces. I tripped over this pairing reading an old Absolute Sound review. Dynamics and leading edge transient speed is invigoratin... | |
Power cable break in? Meanwhile back at the Ranch, the power cord is burning in nicely. The bass bloat is gone, the dynamics remain and it is breaking nicely. Carry on..... | |
Power cable break in? Here they come!😂 | |
Power cable break in? @lak Thanks I didn't know those existed, I just ordered two off Amazon. They can come in handy to break in Pc's. 👍 | |
Streamer upgrade? follow up. @bikeboy52 First of all congrats on your Pontus II and N200. Coincidentally I am on the same quest as you. But, I already have the Venus II DAC as my foundation. I was pondering to either upgrade that to the Terminaor II or +, or to get the Auren... | |
New DAC or New Streamer? @kota1 My streamer I have is better than a Node already. I am not sure you are following what level I am at already. My current DAC is no joke, it's really good. | |
New DAC or New Streamer? @charles1dad I don’t intend to use Roon. I may in the future want to rip CD’s to a SS drive I can add one to the N200. From what I understand it (N200) has great SQ. How would the Innuos better it? In what way? More bang for the buck in that is ... | |
When were the best tube amps made? @decooney @mulveling To this day Kevin Hayes will work on any VAC unit. (that I know of) Secondly before it leaves back to it's owner he personally auditions it to assure it is voiced was designed to be. I had them upgrade my CLA1 Pre amp to Mk I... | |
When were the best tube amps made? I love my VAC Renaissance 70/70 Mk II, it's 20 years old and still works great However I am taking it back to Florida this January to get the latest MKIIIs updates, then it will out live me! Handmade in the USA! | |
Has anyone compared the Dinafrips Terminator II to the Terminator +? @sro That is the combination I am working toward. I want a black T II 12th to replace my Venus II. I am saving up for it in the spring in April. I already have the Hermes, then I can do the clock sync. I also have the I2s connection already. Intu... | |
Wireworld Electra 7 @ryder @jafant @vinylvalet @hilroy48 My Silver Electra 7 now has about 75 hours on it. (It’s Used) It’s really making a positive impact on my system. It’s located on my DAC. My Electra 7 is located on my DDC unit. My second Silver Electra 7 is o... | |
The Right Speaker Cables @sgunther @derfman66 I have the Triton 1.r and use the Silversmith Fidelium cables with them, if you can stretch your budget to them you will be done. You won't need to consider future upgrade paths. They will astonish you. | |
Wireworld Electra 7 @vinylvalet I found it in spam and sent the money, thanks for responding here!! I need to be smarter and ck that when expecting an email. DUH! Looking forward to the WW S7, it's going on my CD Transport. | |
Wireworld Electra 7 @jafant @ryder I got my Silver Electra yesterday and placed it on my DAC. I left it on overnight and gave a listen today. Quicker dynamics, more transparency so far. 20 hours on it, but its used so I don’t know how much time it will need. Treble... |
