| Equi=Core Hum & Other Issues DC blockers are cheap to buy and build. One can be put inside your conditioner as I have done in my BPT Balanced isolation tranny. It quieted my BPT Conditioner and my Clayton Audio amp’s transformer. No need to spend many hundreds for the Deep Co... | |
| Review of Mojo Audio Mystique V3 DAC Thanks @veroguy. George, I tend to like R2R NOS dacs more the more I compare them to other dac designs. | |
| Selling on Audiogon That used to me my experience. It has changed just recently. I would think both you and your tweaks are much better known here on the Gon? | |
| BEST HARMLESS/SIGNATURELESS SPEAKERS CAPACITORS. They are used for cost reasons mostly. Gear is full of them and no way the high end builders could use a much more expensive part that is used so extensively. Circuit boards are full of them. The already high priced gear would cost thousands more ... | |
| Selling on Audiogon Actually the seller is often covering the extra Agon cost. I make more money on the no fee sites due to lower costs. The buyer pays the same price however. That how it usually goes. | |
| Selling on Audiogon For the first time since being a very active Agon poster and seller for some two decades I must say it has become too expensive to sell higher dollar gear. Anything I sell for over $500 I sell in a couple of days on the free sites, I actually find... | |
| BEST HARMLESS/SIGNATURELESS SPEAKERS CAPACITORS. My experience is polar opposite of yours. Could not remove Wima caps fast enough from all manner of electronics. Strange thing this audio hobby. I find Wima average or middle of the road at best. Go figure. Their lead outs are steel, not even copp... | |
| Future of cables! Good article. I think science and innovation will bring about, and currently is, wonderful new realities and possibilities for audio. No doubt. Thanks for the link! | |
| Review of Mojo Audio Mystique V3 DAC Thank you @thaluza. | |
| Review of Mojo Audio Mystique V3 DAC Owners still love the V3? Does Ben offer upgrades to match what he is doing in the next generation Mystique choices/options coming soon? Better quality chokes etc... New usb input board....I ask because I have a V3 coming that I will compare to my... | |
| MHDT Orchid or Lampizator Amber 3? Yes indeed. Sweet little dac really. | |
| MHDT Orchid or Lampizator Amber 3? Love it! True that. | |
| Do I really need a separate Roon Core (computer) to use Roon Software? Yes Roon DSP is wonderful. I upsample everything to DSD128. I like that the most thus far with my Lampi Amber 3 dac. I also boost the bass by 1.25 dB from 120htz and down. | |
| Hornshoppe "the Truth" preamp - any opinions? 20 gauge 600v Polycast everywhere including grounds. The 20 gauge in cotton for the RCA in and outs. | |
| MHDT Orchid or Lampizator Amber 3? Stone cold both will sound a little closed in and constricted. After even 24 hours you will start to hear what they really sound like. The dac, cable and tube need closer to 60 hours to get most of the way. |
