| Considering A SS amplifier @neonknight , 8 meters is a long run and might be the cause of your issues.In your case, I would recommend some Audioquest speaker cables with DBS. Used Rocket 88, Rockefeller, or GO-4 isn't too expensive (relatively) and you might just score some... | |
| Power Conditioner: Isotek, Audioquest or other? @OP,The best way to minimize damage from surges is to put a whole house protector at the main box. They aren't expensive and the hook up (by and experienced electrician) shouldn't be much either. These surge protectors are sacrificial, but at leas... | |

| BIC Venturi fans? I owned the Soundspan 600 speakers.They were pretty good, too.B | |
| I need advice for power cords @beatify,I concur. And, welcome to Audiogon.Bob | |
| Aurender N100 software update, now Aurender Media Manager is incompatible! @OP,I would cut Aurender some slack. Given streaming music is relatively new and the software has to work on Mac and PC, sometimes things get screwed up.I remember a Microsoft update that messed up networked PC's communicating with each other that... | |
| Aurender N100 software update, now Aurender Media Manager is incompatible! Well, there is always Bluesound...B | |
| Help me understand John Coltrane .... seriously. @oregonpapa ,I am inclined to agree with you. Sometimes, complete immersion yields a greater understanding.But,Sometimes the dissonant/discordant sounds force me to flee the room or switch to Mozart.B | |
| Power Conditioner: Isotek, Audioquest or other? @tuberist,Here is a link between PS Audio and AQ: https://positive-feedback.com/reviews/hardware-reviews/audioquest-niagara-5000-ps-audio-p20-directstream-power-plant/ For the money, it seems AQ is the way to go.Bob | |
| Aurender N100 software update, now Aurender Media Manager is incompatible! I can understand the frustration.My N100 did the same thing after an 'upgrade'. I had to send it back for diagnosis- one of the drives was corrupted. I cost $180, but it works.I haven't done the upgrade yet, so I don't know if it is the culprit, b... | |

| Amp Section for New Pair of Magenpan 3.7i AR and Primaluna are pretty good quality. The question is:What will be the best fit for the Maggies?My suggestion is to PM John Rutan (Audioconnection is his Agon tag).He sells Maggies and knows what works with them. And, despite being a dealer, h... | |
| Yggdrasil - what next? If it were me, I would consider the Ayre QB-9 Twenty. I spoke with Ayre and they feel it is a considerable upgrade from the Codex- which I feel is very close to the Schiit Yggy. Owned the Gungnir non multibit, it was good but not as good as the Co... | |
| Worth the effort? Cabling inside sub @OP,Doug Schroeder is someone who's opinion I trust. If he says it will make a difference, I have no reason to doubt it.B | |
