| A stupid question(s) about power cords Well . . . I did put five hours and some change on my new power cords and speakers, and as I typed that I was going to do, I did pull my red book MFSL Slow Hand off the shelf and give it a spin. I jotted down some observations and I had intended ... | |
| Marantz SA10 sacd player Though Iam hoping your sa10 will stay healthy. @jayctoy , so am I, but as you say, one never knows, so as you suggested, I am thinking ahead. Bummer that Stereo Rehab doesn't take stuff that is shipped. To get to Chicago I'd have to drive ac... | |
| A stupid question(s) about power cords I am ordering the adapter. Another experiment that is quite affordable. @immatthewj I have a CD rip of Slowhand and Clapton sounds tired singing on that album and he is definitely struggling a bit there. Sounds like he’s singing with a sore thr... | |
| Marantz SA10 sacd player @jayctoy , I run on the neurotic side and being a bit paranoid I always try to think ahead. I may have to contact stereo rehab about shipping them my unit IF ("IF" being the operative word) mine ever takes a dump. $230 sound reasonable. This i... | |
| seeking advice on iso pucks /stands or similair that won't stain speakers? Thanks, @mitch2 . I actually like the concept of the pads with adhesive for these relatively small 2-way speakers, but the thing is, I am still in the audition process and if after the audition it turns out I want to send them back to MD, I'd pr... | |
| A stupid question(s) about power cords @classicrockfan , another country heard from and I am okay with that. | |
| A stupid question(s) about power cords @jea48 CDP... Maybe will burned-in in a year or two, if ever. serious question, not intended to come off as sarcasm: then would the OEM power cords that come stock with CDPs take quite a while (a year ot two?) to burn in? And I assume that is... | |
| A stupid question(s) about power cords Sorry, @mrdecibel , I feel that on Slow Hand, Clapton’s vocal work is often a bit rough and scratchy sounding, and I am personally thinking that this is probably due to the excesses of that period of time. On a quick edit: now that we have been t... | |
| A stupid question(s) about power cords I am sorry you did not enjoy Clapton's voice on your system. @mrdecibel , actually you misunderstood me--I did enjoy his voice when I realized that it was not the result of a poor source CD, but was the result of the abuse that his vocal cords... | |
| seeking advice on iso pucks /stands or similair that won't stain speakers? @mitch2 , do you use the fat dots with or without the adhesive option? And, on edit, do you think that the size: big fat dot would be the way to go with a 22 Lb. monitor speaker? | |
| room setup suggesion needed Interesting and informative thread. | |
| A stupid question(s) about power cords . . . as an example of what I was talking about, I remember once I was listening to the red book mfsl Eric Clapton/Slow Hand and on the mellower tracks, Lay Down Sally and May You Never and Next Time You See Her, it was so apparent to me that the ... | |
| A stupid question(s) about power cords @ghdprentice , as I have said before: I always appreciate your perspective and the way you present it. @audphile1 Hopping back in for a listen late last night revealed a slightly harsh treble that I didn’t detect few hours prior listening to... | |
| A stupid question(s) about power cords @mrdecibel , @dill , I’ll just weigh back in here quickly to say that in a few more (three or four) weeks (or maybe less) when I have accumulated 100 hours on the new speakers and the cords, I am going to unhook the speakers and put the B&... | |
