Audio Horizons Platinum Reference Fuse
Geoff:I've tried several after-market fuses, but when I find one that piques my interest, I usually obtain it first, rather than try something else that someone else likes or knows about. I'm sure the Audio Magic is great, and I may try it - after... 
Audio Horizons Platinum Reference Fuse
I MEANT, "many posters WITH outstanding systems have had great success…" Duh... 
Audio Horizons Platinum Reference Fuse
Geoffkait and Bazza:I have a Platinum Reference on the way. I will install it in the PS Audio Power Plant 300, which powers my integrated amp and CD player. I should be able to tell the difference reasonably easily, I think.My Shunyata ZiTron A di... 
Audio Horizons Platinum Reference Fuse
Thanks for this. I will contact Audio Horizons tomorrow to get some of these. I have the Synergistic Research and I'm always up for something that will improve the system for less than $500!!! 
Entreq Silver Tellus grounding/earthing system
Sorry, I re-read my first few lines. Entreq has a line of cable (not 'connectors') that you can purchase either in (copper or silver) and apparently there are several different cables they manufacture, ranging from $120 (I got .65 meter Earth silv... 
Entreq Silver Tellus grounding/earthing system
Tboooe, the spade to RCA or spade/spade is the connector that goes between the Entreq unit and the component you hook it up to. So, you don't merely get the unit: you can use ANY connector, I suppose (look up Roy Gregory's audiobeat review), but t... 
Entreq Silver Tellus grounding/earthing system
Tboooe, sorry for the delay. The Silver Minimus with the Silver Earth cable makes a significant improvement, particularly in the noise floor of the system. I first hooked it up to an integrated amp, but I really didn't notice any significant chang... 
Entreq Silver Tellus grounding/earthing system
Tboooe, it's been interesting.I put the Silver Minimus into the system and it worked. The noise floor dropped and it was better…HOWEVER, there are a variable that I need to revisit to be sure of my results, so I'm only saying the sound was noticea... 
Entreq Silver Tellus grounding/earthing system
Well, my Silver Minimus just arrived. I got it from a Canadian exporter. I can't test it out as I had it sent to the West Coast, where I'm vacationing. Thought I'd try it out in a friend's system, but I'm not going back to San Francisco, so, so mu... 
Stillpoints under a turntable?
I bought a set of still points Ultra Mini Risers on a trip to a friend's house. Just for the fun of it, I put it under his turntable, which is a Project. He doesn't pay any attention to his setup and is more anti-audiophile in his attentiveness to... 
Stillpoint Ultras anyone?
I agree with your statement, Fleschler: the room is an extremely important part of the quality. I have used components in 4 rooms: 2 in San Francisco, in which one room was narrow (I didn't know about first reflection points then), but the speaker... 
Stillpoints Ultra SS under your speakers?
Just looked it up: I have the Cerapucs. I had the Cerabases at one point, and looked up Roy Gregory's review of them in Hi Fi Plus, and saw the anatomy of the device. It's similar to the Stillpoints in the technological approach, from what I can s... 
Stillpoints Ultra SS under your speakers?
RAK:I have the Finite Elemente Cera…puts? I used to have the top model, but then got the next one down from the top, which is on my Spider equipment rack.I had considered substituting the Stillpoints to the 'feet' on the Spider, but I wondered if ... 
Stillpoints Ultra SS under your speakers?
Tbg:You are just TOO rich for me, man! (Laughing). I would rather stick with the SS and be able to complement the whole system than have to buy one Ultra 5 at a time. I had to return the last set of Ultra Minis because of Bruce's "proclamation" th... 
Break In Time for Nordost Norse 2 lines
Stereo, it sounds as though you're not familiar with Nordost's line. It is in nearly every review of them that their break-in time is extensive. It has rarely been my experience that a cable that doesn't sound good when you insert it in to the sys...
