| Okay, How Important Is Speaker Break In? (Dynaudio Contour 60i) It’s always entertaining to read this type of discussion here. So many adamant opinions. Many of which are completely subjective. Speaker break in is real, as you’ve discovered. So nobody has even asked if you ever had the B&W’s serviced. The ... | |
| Some love for the Benchmark HPA4/LA4 @yyzsantabarbara I have Sennheiser HD800s and Focal Utopia HPs. Two very different HPs and they both sound great with the HPA4.I'm curious what about the Thiels creates a problem for the ABH2 running in mono ?@mrdecibel What I came away with, and ... | |
| Some love for the Benchmark HPA4/LA4 I have the HPA4 and love it. I’ve bought many high end preamps over the years. Most of the big names and I spent well over $20K on a couple of them but I’m convinced that the HPA4 is the best I’ve ever heard. I’m running a full Benchmark system wi... | |
| Amp repair cost — is this right? Audiogon is a very strange place. I’m simply asking if this price is in the right range and getting some really strange responses that don’t answer that question.@jnehma1 This forum is, well, interesting. I’m constantly amazed at the willingness (... | |
| Vandersteen 3a Signatures compared to Treo’s The purpose of the gas tight crimp is to prevent oxidation. I should add that I clean the Banana plugs with an anti-oxidant, electronics contact cleaner every time I switch out amps and or speakers. That's every couple of weeks.I use the contact c... | |

| Vandersteen 3a Signatures compared to Treo’s @zimick I’m using Kimber Kable 8TC with banana plugs on both ends. They’re highly reviewed and recommended as one of the best neutral cables available. I’ve had them for a few years and in using them with a wide range of systems I have felt they s... | |
| Vandersteen 3a Signatures compared to Treo’s @zimick Have you considered buying another Benchmark amp and bi-amping the Signature 3As ?Way back when Richard first updated the 3As to ’Signature’ I sent mine in for the update and in the process had a conversation with Richard about bi-wiring /... | |
| Dedicated Vinyl system next upgrade? Would upgrading the capacitors require me sending the amp in or is that something I could do on my own?If you're asking then I'd suggest you're not qualified to do the upgrade. It's something you could research and do or you could just find a tech... | |
| Dedicated Vinyl system next upgrade? Hah ! I love this forum. It took less than 48 hours for members to recommend thousands of dollars of upgrades, many of which would actually be side-grades, based on their personal tastes / preferences, not just answering your question. It's all go... | |
| Monoblock Aegirs Looks like 395garrison posted while I was writing and even provided the reference from Vandersteen ;~) | |
| Monoblock Aegirs Your better to use the Aegir on the mids and highs and the Vidar on the bass and if they are different gains use a Schiit Sys on the louder of the amps to reduce it to the others level then use your Schiit Freya + preamp as the master still.That’s... | |
| Main Audiogon site barely works? I just found that they're using cloundfront.net, AWS and another well know CDN. Those are the most common resources these days and can be a good solution when configured correctly. | |
| Main Audiogon site barely works? @rodrigaj let support know you're still having trouble. @ozzy62 likewise, contact support. Try clearing the cache in your browser and if you are by any chance using a VPN change it to another part of the U.S. or another country.One of the possible... | |
| Main Audiogon site barely works? I posted the above comment 45 minutes ago. I attempted to edit it twice, adding space between thoughts/paragraphs as we do in the English language. Sadly that's beyond the capabilities of this forum. |
