| When do the new Atmasphere Class D come out? Thanks Erik,Ralph and I have been going through just about everything, to no avail.Everything is quiet until I install the UV-1.Also, dedicated line to my upstairs system.Something about my McCormack Micro Power Drives and the UV-1 don't want to w... | |
| When do the new Atmasphere Class D come out? @atmasphere ,Thanks for the info Ralph.I am waiting on a new set of cables to see if that helps with the buzz.The only thing next to the UV-1 is an Ayre Codex DAC and a LCD monitor. The amps are at least 3 feet away.When you need a Beta tester, lo... | |
| Vandersteen 5a, 15 years old vs. new Vandersteen Quatro Wood (upgrade or downgrade) I really have to get those Sub 3's for my Treo's. I think the equalized bass is going to be a game changer.Bob | |
| Upgrade McCormack or... I never heard of Clayton before. I, too, would be interested in the comparison.B | |
| Trying to make sense of the new and improved world of streaming music @OP, Like I said, just ignore him. No matter what you say, it won't make a difference. B | |
| Thiel CS1.2 vs. Ohm Walsh 2 Wait, isn't your Denon 80 watts per channel? If so, I would think you have enough power for the Thiel's, at least for now- and, if you don't try playing too loudly.If you need a decent low cost amp, you could try to find an old Adcom GFA-555, but ... | |
| Personal Radio does not completely stink Spotify has the best recommendations I have found.And, yes I agree AI seems to be pretty good at predicting what I want to listen to. It also generates a number of artists that I never would have clicked on to listen to.Bob | |
| Test for line separator - ignore or delete. Let's ignore the above comment.B | |

| When do the new Atmasphere Class D come out? Ralph say it will be a while.It takes time to make a viable/reliable product, let alone designing the boards and cases.Too bad for me as I could use a pair while he is checking out why my amp and UV-1 are buzzing.Bob | |
| Single output at amp, tri wire at speaker. Any benefit? If speaker manufacturers didn't think it made a difference, they wouldn't bother providing separate inputs.As millercarbon mentions, if you have the cable availabe, just try it out.If you don't most cable companies will be able to make a cable tha... | |
| Thiel CS1.2 vs. Ohm Walsh 2 These are two different beasts, to put it mildly. Not to start a flame war-If you are serious about music, get the Thiel's.If you just want a general 'nice' sound around the room, get the Ohm's.The Thiel's are time and phase aligned, while the Oh... | |
| SR ATMOSPHERE LEVEL 1 speaker wire Directionality Though I might be wrong, when in doubt, connect the cables so the writing matches the flow.And, contact SR directly to make sure I am not making an ass of myself.Bob | |
| Balanced to RCA @danip,Though I am not an EE, I think the OP should be aware that not all equipment with balanced interconnects abides by the AEC standard.Therefore, in an abundance of caution, I suggested using the Jensen Transformers. Almarg suggested contactin... | |
| Bifrost multibit vs gungnir multibit Congrats!I am using the Gungnir (non-multibit) while my Ayre Codex is repaired.It is close, but lacking the finesse of the Codex.I would suspect that upgrading to multibit would bring it pretty close, if not to the Ayre Codex level.Also, keep in m... |
