| System assembled; only a final decision about speakers remains @djones--gotcha. Receptacles. Yes, I think I found my conditioners' answer. Thanks! | |
| System assembled; only a final decision about speakers remains Why do I want a receptacle? I guess mainly because for a small amount of money I can just cross that factor off my list. I have good power cords, and now a good filter/suppressor from Audience. My outlet might be just fine, but dollars to donuts i... | |
| System assembled; only a final decision about speakers remains P.S. Anyone want to weigh in on power outlets that are not crazy expensive (e.g. under $100)? | |
| Fitz Carrera BE I love those listening room photos! And I am bummed I won't hear the Carreras! C'est la vie. (If this is the worst that happens to me.)And now I know that Erik is a good guy. Just when my plot against him was gaining some real intellectual mettle... | |
| System assembled; only a final decision about speakers remains Thanks, Al. I just bought one online -- 2016. First, I wrote to Audience and found out (a) warranty is still good for 6 more years and (b) warranty will be honored even if I'm not the original owner. Good product, good company. Done. (Just need to... | |
| System assembled; only a final decision about speakers remains Thanks to you both. Good accounts which give me enough confidence for a modest investment. Two further questions:1. Would my Panamax 1500 "surge suppressor/line conditioner" be able to simple serve as the power strip? If so, then all I’d need is t... | |
| Opinions on the current market +1 @chorus One nuance you might include with your four rules for the OP is whether those rules apply equally to all gear or not. I'm pretty sure the OP will find some gear owned by more than one person that would be perfectly fine. | |
| System assembled; only a final decision about speakers remains Thanks, @almarg A good solution to varied requirements.One final question -- because I'm really tempted to just copy your solution: Do you think that you lose any benefits by attaching a $71 dollar power strip to a high quality filtering unit lik... | |
| Fitz Carrera BE Excellent review. In a world of mass production, dealer markups, advertising and marketing fluff (which adds plenty to the cost), and overly-precious boutique products, Fritz offers *exceptional* value.I've been listening to the Carbon 7s and will... | |
| Non Analytical Sounding DAC Upgrade- Budget $1,500 or less FWIW, I compiled a short list by reading and researching. I don’t have personal experience with these products but I want to contribute what I learned. I wanted R2R and/or tube.I was very, very close to getting the Audio Mirror Tubadour and the ma... | |
| System assembled; only a final decision about speakers remains @almarg Thanks, Almarg. I’m curious — why did you choose to run the two-outlet Audience Adept aR2p unit into a multi outlet power strip and then address that with the Shunyata unit to attenuate noise? As the Audience Adept product notes, "the aR2p... | |
| System assembled; only a final decision about speakers remains I have seen that advice and I’ve also seen many people say that they would never take that risk with their equipment especially given the crap that’s on our electrical lines or the possibility of an electrical storm. I would be worried that I woul... | |
| System assembled; only a final decision about speakers remains Thanks @b_limo so, you’re comfortable running your amps into the wall without protection? | |
| Cambridge CXC: Help finding a small, programmable remote? Thanks, Stesu. I had luck with my System Link 5 AV by RCA. I saw it for $5 or so on ebay, also. I think many will work with the Cambridge.That said, what a ridiculous workaround for a well-regarded company's product. | |
| System assembled; only a final decision about speakers remains @zx10 Appreciate your input on speakers — Elac, Tekton.@twoleftears twoleftears — I didn't know that the Panamax fell into that category. Good to learn that distinction.@tvad Tvad — who could resist a comfy Eames chair? It might almost cause me to... |
