| Length of speaker cables You know, Veteran's Day is just around the corner.😜B | |
| Ground loop feedback - cable wire issue I have had this issue with my office.I even sent my amps and preamp to Atmasphere to sort it out, but, to no avail.It seems some amps don't play well with other equipment.I think it might be some inherent design issue with the amp, but I am no EE.... | |
| SS vs. Tubes with Vandersteen 2ce sig II @OP,Good move on PM'ing Johnny.Sometimes he doesn't check his Agon PM's, so I will give him a reminder...And, as far as tubes go Ralph Karsten (atmasphere) would be someone who might be able to offer some info.Bob | |
| Length of speaker cables @OP,No reason to be 'anxiously waiting'.Those cables are going to 'rock your world'.They did to mine.Whatever Garth Powell is doing, you can be sure it will be for the positive.Bob | |
| SS vs. Tubes with Vandersteen 2ce sig II Vandy's pair great with Ayre. An AX7e would be a good integrated, as well as a Belles Aria integrated.Of course, you can buy separates and get additional power/higher resolution-though it depends upon your budget.I run my Treo's with either Ayre M... | |
| Length of speaker cables @mammothguy54,+1Though the OP doesn't have to go as far up the AQ chain to achieve higher resolution, I would personally opt for the William Tell's, as it would be the end of a chase.Don't believe me? PM ctsooner, or audioconnection (John Rutan)- ... | |
| Just installed a bluesound node 2i , quality not so good @superstoked,Can you provide a link to the equipment?B | |
| Bluesound Node Issues After the Firmware Upgrade Bluesound fixed the issue with the latest firmware.I had to manually install it, but it seems many have done it through the app successfully-per the Bluesound forum.Bob | |
| Anyone know the Shahinian Diapason Ensemble???? Why not call/email Shahinian?They are still in business. You can also question them on the cost issue while you are at it.It seems a fair question, but there might be reasonable answer.B | |
| Schiit Bifrost 2 quit working I'd just send it back to Schiit.I have purchased many items from Schiit. I have never had an issue with any of them, let alone the one you have posted.And, considering that they have sent an RMA, I think it shows that they are committed to providi... | |
| Just installed a bluesound node 2i , quality not so good @OP, As listed earlier, an Ayre Codex, now running under $1K used.Or, a Schiit Gungnir Multibit used- for a little less used, should provide you with enhanced sound quality.As far as the Mac DAC, I would keep searching. Though it would probably be... | |
| What tubes do I need? I have no experience with tubes other than owning an Atma-Sphere amp and preamp.My suggestion is to PM Ralph Karsten (atmasphere). He would be likely to be able to help you discern what tubes are in your preamp.Plus he's a nice guy who always tri... | |
| Bluesound Node Issues After the Firmware Upgrade There has been a Bluesound upgrade problem for the last week or so.They have implemented a new upgrade to address the issue.Node 100's ( the original), were the primary victims.The latest upgrade- see the Bluesound website, fixes it- as far as I c... | |
| Length of speaker cables I use Audioquest GO-4's for my Vandy Treo's and Ayre monoblocks.The length is 6 feet.My dealer, John Rutan, swears by short speaker lengths (As does Ralph Karsten (atmasphere). Anything longer introduces/enhances cable artifacts.I don't know what ... | |
| Anyone know the Shahinian Diapason Ensemble???? Yes, they are different. One is direct the other uses dispersion/reflection.It all depends upon what you like.B |
