| Surge protector or power conditioner? Many have suggested a whole house surge, though it may not sub for some local protection (I'm fuzzy on that). Here's a thread:https://forum.audiogon.com/discussions/environmental-potentials-whole-house-surge-protection-can-i-g... | |
| Rank the tweaks, geeks! @kennyc @djones51 Thanks. I need to google "managed switch" because...I am ignorant.At this point, I'm filing away this information about ethernet switches. From my understanding, and given my system's situation, there are too many other more impo... | |
| Rank the tweaks, geeks! Anyone who chooses what to do first has implicitly ranked, unless they’re acting at random. Anyone who makes a checklist has to choose what to do on it, first.Let's not quibble. Rankings, taken to an extreme, are quixotic, a waste of time. But we ... | |
| Rank the tweaks, geeks! Hear hear jpwarren. Oh, and by the way -- just learned that adding a little salt to coffee before brewing helps neutralize the bitterness (it blocks certain taste buds). | |
| The stereo sounds fine, music is great, but Jeff Bezos came back to earth. @mikeydred Agreed. Don’t need to add insult to injury. | |
| Rank the tweaks, geeks! @duckworp Thanks for your detailed and descriptive list. I recently upgraded my speaker cable. My DAC cord is decent but not great. I need to install dedicated electrical lines before doing much more with power cord trials. My AP Crystal interconn... | |
| Vibration - What are the Main Sources? I appreciate this thread; I started the one discussing the best tweaks. Some there argued that the tweaks couldn’t be ranked; I suppose some will claim that here about isolation. This makes a certain kind of sense, if they’re all additive to affec... | |
| The stereo sounds fine, music is great, but Jeff Bezos came back to earth. Clearly, Jeff Bezos is too politicizing a figure to make a joke about. Then again, on this forum, I could start a thread called "Puppies are cute," and it would would go down faster than Stormy on Mario Kart's Toad. | |
| Rank the tweaks, geeks! @kennyc Which of the tweaks on your list were most important to deal with first? | |
| Subwoofer Decisions - REL/Rythmik, Pair/Single, Paper/Aluminum Driver, etc. Thanks, golfnutz. Actually, it's within 5 db. In a room where I had very very awful problems!It wouldn't be worth buying another sub, yet — from what I read, if one is within 5 db they should count their coins and leave the betting table. I will t... | |
| Subwoofer Decisions - REL/Rythmik, Pair/Single, Paper/Aluminum Driver, etc. I have three subs in a room with a ceiling that is 6'5" high. It's a very difficult room. What allowed me to manage the bass with the Rythmik's adjustable phase. The left Rythmik is set at 270; the right Rythmik is set at 30. The REL is further aw... | |
| Raven Stereo Tube Amplifier Customer Service I've had similar good service from Mike Sanders at Quicksilver. These are all keepers! | |
| Suggestions for new earbuds or similar @soix Thanks for those recommendations! Being happy with Anker already, you've given me a modest upgrade path if these go south on me. | |
| The stereo sounds fine, music is great, but Jeff Bezos came back to earth. @dougsat Thanks! The same absurdities so many Amazon employees feel now has been felt forever by others. | |
