| A method to more quickly extract the benefits from a Perfect Path Mat, Alpha Card or Gate Sorry I did not clarify. The mats that I “charged” are only some 8 days on the gear (new). However, the dac is lower voltage and my no gain preamp is also lower voltage (15vdc) so this charging is a much quicker way of getting the most out of the... | |
| A method to more quickly extract the benefits from a Perfect Path Mat, Alpha Card or Gate Thank you OP for this thread. I did exactly as you said are darned if you are not 100% right. I charged two mats in my breaker box and put them back in my rig and the improvement was immediate and much more than I ever recall. Still have two mat... | |
| MHDT Orchid or Lampizator Amber 3? I would love to bring a hot rodded Orchid over for a comparison to your two box Goliath DHT dac! Your power supply alone is 5 times the weight of the diminutive Orchid. | |
| Preamp Output Capacitor: Mundorf Supreme vs. Supreme Silver Oil I have an update. I just completed an MHDT Orchid upgrade for a customer with the Vcap Odam & Bypass CuTF on the outputs. The unit has about 7 hours on it. Keep in mind I also upgraded 10 resistors to Vishay ZFoils and Audio Note Tantalum. To ... | |
| What's up with TMR Audio? Thanks TMR. Agree, the OP should have never posted on this. | |
| Preamp Output Capacitor: Mundorf Supreme vs. Supreme Silver Oil Wig. They are said to perform even better, great results, with a .01uf Vcap CuTF as a parallel/bypass cap. That is how I am using them. | |
| MHDT Orchid or Lampizator Amber 3? That makes sense. Thanks for clearing that up. Now, a notorious modifier like myself has real reasons for a warranty to be voided 🤓. | |
| MHDT Orchid or Lampizator Amber 3? No way opening up the case should or will void a warranty. I am not just hooking up a piece of gear that was shipped from Poland without first making sure all tubes are seated properly and nothing is loose. Standard operating practice. @lampizato... | |
| What's up with TMR Audio? Seems nobody is perfect. ‘‘Tis the season for joy and forgiveness. All is and will be good around this transaction. Enjoy family! | |
| What's up with TMR Audio? No issue, it’s the holidays. You will get your piece of gear as they are the real deal and sell to many, many happy customers. You are right about how they should have messaging stating when they will be back from vacation. I suppose they felt w... | |
| Preamp Output Capacitor: Mundorf Supreme vs. Supreme Silver Oil I have used and continue to use the Duelund silver and Sn-Cu bypass caps. Both are great. I find the Sn-cu, like the main Sn-Cu cap, are the best caps out there. They are simply beautiful sounding with all the detail and openness one could ever wa... | |
| Network Switches I 3rd it! Thanks for the update. The Cat 7 Ethernet cables I purchased from SOtM really upgraded the sound of my system. They do matter! | |
| New Omega E Mat from Perfect Path Technologies I concur with placement on the inside of the door of your breaker box. I also placed one of the original mats on top of my BPT Balanced Power Conditioner with great sonic results. | |
| MHDT Orchid or Lampizator Amber 3? I find SS rectification provides for more powerful and controlled bass. When I build tube preamps and amps I always compare SS to tube rectification and the bass has always been better with SS. This is one area the Orchid did not take a back seat ... | |
| MHDT Orchid or Lampizator Amber 3? No need to change out the chip in the Orchid. Folks who have and then compared to a fully burned in stock chip now say the stock chip is great. Output caps can be Jupiter copper foil, Miflex 1uf, Audience XO or the new Vcap ODAM The Western Electr... |
