| Eliminating hum Thanks Al. I did just read this.....seems we have some cases of electrocution on record. We Aphiles should be aware." In the professional audio and video fields, the cheater plug has been identified as a serious safety problem. Its casual use as a... | |
| Eliminating hum If a power cord would have a short to the chassis would'nt that trip a breaker in the home? I think the most cautious of us would say never use them as there is certainly a possibility of shock if all the conditions are aligned perfectly. It is al... | |
| Eliminating hum Goodness I have used cheaters my whole 37 years of audio life. Most of us have and it will at least help you understand if it is a ground loop issue. I must be lucky:). I have never, ever heard of any incident in real life to be honest Agoners. Al... | |
| Addendum to Ya, just like LP's were dead 20 years ago. Keep spinning as many of us will keep spinning. | |
| Capacitor log Mundorf Silver in Oil Ok folks before you read what I am about to post and think I have gone absolutely nuts, keep an open mind. Oh, and don't tell my wife as she will think I have lost my mind.I finally placed my outboard crossover in a nice chassis. I was doing some ... | |
| Building the Audio Note Kit 1 SET amp... I forgot to mention again......your the man! I so enjoy looking through and reading your blog. You have me wanting to buy an ANote kit. I look forward to hearing your impressions of the sound. | |
| Building the Audio Note Kit 1 SET amp... Rebbi, I have a tip for you if you are willing to be a tad unconventional. This mod will cost you nothing, but will have a very positive impact on the sound of your amp and system. Run the output tranny wires outside the chassis and use the bindin... | |
| Capacitor log Mundorf Silver in Oil I am going to heat my outboard crossover box/enclosure to keep all the components at a nice operating temperature of 100-105 degrees. Much better sound with this modification as they will operate at the temperature they sound the best.Just kidding... | |
| Capacitor log Mundorf Silver in Oil I also found the Vcaps to be very, very fast and detailed. I can see how folks like them. In my set up they did not have enough body and weight. But my system already leaned towards fast and detailed. The CAST are world class caps as I have been o... | |
| Building the Audio Note Kit 1 SET amp... Great job on the blog! First rate and thank you for posting. | |
| Capacitor log Mundorf Silver in Oil Ya, the price of those silver caps would be about as much as the speakers themselves:) | |
| Capacitor log Mundorf Silver in Oil It may be that in an initially "warmer" or more forgiving system the CAST work nicely to deliver the end sound. In an already highly resolved set up the Jupiter caps work nicely. Just my attempt to understand our separate observations Volley. | |
| Capacitor log Mundorf Silver in Oil Volley, I assume you let the Jupiters break in for some 200 hours? They do sound more laid back at first, but open up nicely over time. They are more open sounding with more air than the CAST in my system. Last thing I would ever say is I need to ... | |
| Can Silver Interconnects be bright in your gear I have not, but they are far, far more money. Ya, you have enough going on right now. Looking for speakers? Great fun! Enjoy. | |
| Can Silver Interconnects be bright in your gear John, the IC's are good and for the money a great buy. The speaker cables are the real game changers however. They are the pick of the Amadi litter!You must try these as Phil will work with you on a trial. They are the best I have heard. I think h... |
