| 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... | |
| Holy SnickerDoodles Read This This might be of interest:http://www.audioexcellenceaz.com/worldpower.htm As John suggested, a comparison of this to the Wattgate would be interesting. I have not used the PS Audio, but it is a Hubbell 8300 (which I have used) with extra nickel pl... | |
| Holy SnickerDoodles Read This John: I have not used the Jena Labs, but do use exactly the same receptacle that is sold by Alan Kafton at Audio Excellence for $55 (about half the price of the Jena). I shouldn't say exactly, because Audio Excellence apparently subjects the recep... | |
| Hifi or Vinyl in London, Ontario Where is "Image Audio" in London, Ontario? | |
| Busted Phillips Screws Sears has been advertising the "Screw Out" (no kidding!) with Bob Villa up here in Canada on TV-seems like just the job for it! | |
| Hifi or Vinyl in London, Ontario The two best shops for equipment are London Audio on York St. and Target Hi-Fi on Dundas. Everything else is a waste of time. Very little vinyl in the city, but you might try the Village Idiot on Wortley Rd (think it's at the corner of Wortley and... | |
| Power cords for Pioneer Elite DV-C36 Harmonic Technology sells an adapter for about $45 so that you can use any aftermarket cable with a regular iec female connector. Have been using it for a couple of years with excellent results. Other alternative, as stated above, is to install a ... | |
| "Floating ground" and Electraglide Fat Man p. c.? A fairly knowledgeable poster at audioasylum responded recently there to this same thread over there that this cord comes standard with no ground and that grounded cords are made only on request. FWIW, many of the cords that I've used have sounded... | |
| High performance electric outlets My experience with outlets over the past year and a half or so leads me to believe that there is literally a truckload of misinformation or disinformation on receptacles out there. I have tried a number of outlets from various manufacturers, and t... | |
