| Which power receptacle to use? I also own cryoed Hubbells from Alan Kafton at World Power, although mine are 5362's. I've also used the Pass and Seymour spec grades mentioned by Natalie and numerous other receptacles, and there is ABSOLUTELY no comparison. By the way, I am runn... | |
| Electrical outlet upgrade worth it? Matty: I've got the Pass & Seymour Natalie is so hot on and would be happy to send it your way as well (you can keep it if you want.) My refrigerator is in fact running on one, but once you try the others, that's probably where it will end up ... | |
| Electrical outlet upgrade worth it? Hi Bob: Certainly no insult intended to you-always enjoy reading your posts. I'm perhaps a bit unusual around here in the sense that I'm just trying to pull every last bit of performance out of reasonably cheap (but not necessarily bad or bad soun... | |
| Sibilance how do I get rid of it? Hey Natalie: There's no mention of Denon in his post. And we're missing you're point? My experience with a very cheap (and I mean VERY cheap) digital source is that it benefits greatly from power tweaks. Here's a thought for you: Power is the true... | |
| Electrical outlet upgrade worth it? Bob: If you're not sure about Matty's Creek, I'm sure that you'd find my equipment laughable, although it's set up pretty well and tweaked with lots of cheap, and some not so cheap tweaks. And the difference among the outlets, even in my set-up, i... | |
| Electrical outlet upgrade worth it? Lak is correct and Alan sells an excellent product. I have no dedicated lines either. This will give you a huge bang for the $$$ improvement in your system. | |
| Review: Denon DL 103R Cartridge Twl: Posted at Audioasylum and already received a response back, although without the actual effective mass. I am probably borderline. You and others might be interested in this website:www.vinylengine.com | |
| Review: Denon DL 103R Cartridge Twl: Thanks for the info. The FT3 is a straight arm with a fixed headshell, a step up (significantly I think) from the MMT at the time. Has a removeable weight at the end of the arm to be used with heavier cartridges (which I'm currently using wit... | |
| Sibilance how do I get rid of it? I will throw my hat into the ring here to agree with Stehno, Bob Bundus and the other posters here advocating a look at power. Over the past two years, I have bought absolutely no new equipment, concentrating strictly on isolation/support and powe... | |
| Review: Denon DL 103R Cartridge Twl: I am a dunce in the compliance, etc. area. Have an older Gyrodek with a Sumiko Premier FT3 arm and am currently using an Ortofon MC 20 Super. Would the Denon mate well with the FT3? | |
| Hubbel v Virtual Dynamics v FIM v Purist v Jena Czbbcl: My system is budget solid-state (no tubes) and I listen in a fairly small room in the near field. According to Alan at World Power, the cryoed 8300 is a little bit more "immediate" sounding and moves you a bit closer to the performance tha... | |
| Hubbel v Virtual Dynamics v FIM v Purist v Jena World Power/Audioexcellence is at:http://www.audioexcellenceaz.com/worldpower.htmCzbbcl: For what it's worth, I doubt if there is anyone out there that could have been (and still is) more skeptical than me. I experimented extensively with standard... | |
| Hubbel v Virtual Dynamics v FIM v Purist v Jena I would add to the list the Audio Excellence/World Power receptacle(s), of which the cryoed 5362 is identical to the Jena Labs at half the price. For what it's worth, the Virtual Dynamics, Jena, and Purist are all cryoed Hubbells (5262 or 5362), t... | |
| Sakura Systems OTA Cable Kit I use the Eichmann Bullet Plugs terminating 47 Labs for IC's. I have never used the standard 47 labs connectors, but can say the Eichmann's are far superior to another set of RCA's which I used first to figure out whether I wanted to stay with the... | |
| Holy SnickerDoodles Read This John: It appears Alan has gone back to Audioasylum where he usually hangs out so I'll step in to answer your question. The only differences between the Hubbell 5362 and 8300 are: 1) the 5362 has a nylon face where the 8300 has a thermoplastic poly... |
