No harshness. A... | |
Just got Audible Illusions L1, but it sound harsh Actually, I feel my problem is resolve. I set the left and right knob to 6:00, and the main knob to around 8:00. I listen to it all night last night, no harshess, and no "s" sound. It seems the bass doesn't kick in when the main knob is set to ver... | |
Just got Audible Illusions L1, but it sound harsh Yes, my B&W has a metal tweeters. It is a bit hard to upgrade or try out different speakers due to its size. The next speaker I want is B&W N802 .. but it is kind of expensive, and I want to pick up, so, I need to wait until it comes up.As... | |
Just got Audible Illusions L1, but it sound harsh Now I set the left and right at about 6:00, and the main knob around 8:00. It seems it is better, I don't know why. It seems the harshness becomes more prominent when the main knob is set to very low (close to 6:00).For another tube, it seems the ... | |
McCormack DNA-1 vs DNA-125 Hi Steve,Thanks very much for your reply, I guess I couldn't get better answer by the designer of the unit. But I am a bit confused. Is the DNA-1 185 wpc? I read the review in stereophile and some other places, it said it is 150wpc. Is the 185 wpc... | |
Just got Audible Illusions L1, but it sound harsh BTW, what do you set for the left and right knob? The manual said I should start by setting it at 12:00. But then if I set it to 12, my main volume know needs to be very low, around 6:30. It seems if I set the left and right know at around 6:00, a... | |
Just got Audible Illusions L1, but it sound harsh Stereo5, I am a bit confused. I didn't buy it from Art Ferris, and it is already a 6h23neb per the seller. But I may still buy another pair and try. Because last night, I tried another CD, it is the same thing. It is quite bad that I have to use t... | |
Just got Audible Illusions L1, but it sound harsh Thank you very much for all the reply. I tried other better audiophile test disc, it doesn't have this problem. So, I think it is that particular CD's problem. Although the Rotel RC1070 don't have that problem, but then when I listen to other disc... | |
Just got Audible Illusions L1, but it sound harsh The pre-amp has been running for an hour. I am not sure if I use the right term. Maybe that's what people called CD glare? I am listening to a female singer pop song, where it is medium to high treble. I tried using the CD input of the L1 where th... | |
Silver vs cryogenic treated copper Thanks for the reply, but your quote is the explaination of the term cryogenic treatment. It didn't say how is it compared to silver. I tried google it, but can't find any specific number, of it stated specifically that silver has lower resistance... | |
Power cable management I think both coil or bow tie are bad .. I think it will maybe induce eddy current, or act as an anthena if they are not poperly insulated. | |
Silver vs cryogenic treated copper Thanks .. I think I am actually trying to get something more scientific or meansurable. I believe silver has lower resistance than copper. However, crygenic treatment change the crystal structure which also lower the resistance ( I think ). Maybe ... | |
Please recommend for my next upgrade My current Maverick DAC is only $200, to me, it is quite a bargain. When I first plug it in, I got an impression that it gives more detail and more dynamic. Then in one afternoon, I did a A/B test with and without the DAC. I found out the DAC just... | |
