Atma-Sphere MP-1 and MP-3 comparison Thank you for you help and you are right-on Pubul57, as the saying goes; "the enemy of good is better". Ralph is out of town right now, but from speaking to (oh shoot, his name escapes me), anyway -- The MP3 retains the same "house" sound, what yo... | |
Atma-Sphere MP-1 and MP-3 comparison Thanks, read that already, not really what I'm looking for | |
Modification Nightmares I have had several pieces modded / upgraded / and custom built. In all cases, there were definite improvements and I have been very satisfied. Except, for one issue -- it has been my experience that several modders / custom builders have frustrati... | |
CD Repair? I would not buy a used CD that was "fixed" in this fashion. The polishing takes away the scratch but in doing so, takes away layers of plastic, thereby decreasing the thickness of the material layer between the data and the surface. This would not... | |
Affordable Upgrade to Spelt Anti Cables? If you want to venture into a higher price range; $200 to $300 for cables. Then, I would HIGHLY recommend Grover Huffman cables. I have compared is cables to many highend cables, like Kimber, Shunyata, Virtual Dynamics, and various silver cables c... | |
Grover Huffman power cables??? Well, I got a demo PC from Grover and compared it to a Virtual Dynamics David and a Shunyata Black Mamba on a BAT VK-D5SE CD Player.The results were quit surprising for me. I had always thought Shunyata were prefered cords on digital front ends, b... | |
Would you pay to audition speakers I'm not too old to remember the day that customers came FIRST and salesmen were knowledgeable, courteous, respectful, and jumped at the chance to help...Now-a-days salesmen are rude, bothered-to-help, and have no idea about what they are selling o... | |
Quad ESL Cap mods I spoke to a moodder and he says F & T MPP caps with a Harmony cap bipass are the best way to go for the price. He feels the F & T MPP caps give a better result than the Mundorf MKP. He sais the only appropriate cap for this (Quad esl) app... | |
Quad ESL Cap mods Casouza,Thanks for the great info. Any experimentation with the Mundorf TubeCap? Is the TubeCap appropriate for this type of application? and When I replace the cap in the Quads -- does it have to be 220uF or can I go less?Thank you,William | |
Quad ESL Cap mods Face,Thanks for the forum input. Is the Mundorf 220uF cap you have film or electrolytic? What is the reference/catalogue number? Where did you buy? Whats you'r application and how does it sound?Thank you,William | |
Quad ESL Cap mods This is a input cap -- right after the binding post along with a resistor. | |
MFSL Gold cd or Current Japanese CD? Agree with above -- it depends on the individual album and (re)mastering. A couple titles, like Peggy Lee Black Coffee, I own a couple due to differences in the mastering -- I may like a song on one and another song on another...Strictly as far as... | |
Meridian 508.20 vs BAT vk-d5se? I have not heard the 508.20, but I do own the BAT VK-D5SE. The BAT has been an absolutely wonderful player over the years. I had rolled the tubes to find ones I liked best and I had Hot Rod Audio Mods put a new clock in it -- both solidified my li... | |
Anybody tweaking by using the RCA caps? I have thought about trying them myself, but have not yet. For some reason, I think I remember reading that on some equipment (like Atma-Sphere) you should not do this though... |
