| Best Speaker Placement Rules you've used? Recently, I have been experimenting with the nearfield speakers placement as suggested by Audio Physic and it has improved the overall presentation of the music that is being played. I will still need more time to optimise my placement but I initi... | |
| Is the JPS DIGITAL cable as good on CD as reviewed I had the JPS feeding my DAC at one stage and I thought it cured/rounded some of the "digital" nasties. IMO if your system is bright sounding it might just do the trick. My comparison was the PS Audio Xstream Plus PC. I finally settled for the lat... | |
| Audio Grade Fuse, Anyone? Perhaps applying Silclear or Walker SST to the contacts of the fuse may generate similar results. The theory here as I understand is to enhance current flow of the fuse. Have anyone tried this? | |
| Do folks use contact enhancing liquids with sucess Yes, Silclearhttp://www.mapleshaderecords.com/tweaks/silclear.phpor Walker SSThttp://www.cryotweaks.com/Walker/SST.shtmlBoth widely discussed in this forum & AA. I have used the SST and it works very well.......... | |

| Sonic difference 1.0m vs 1.5m digital cable Thanks Sean for the explanation and let us know your test results if you are proceeding with this. My sense is with most i/c (including digital) they will not sound the same at different lengths but generally longer means trade offs with something... | |
| Sonic difference 1.0m vs 1.5m digital cable Thanks for the responses so far and hence after reading what has been discussed in AA and here I 'm not convinced this will make a difference subjectively, though the techincal explanation makes sense to me. I guess it is system dependent and as s... | |
| What concert or music DVD's are worth having? Currently playing...........Boz Scaggs - Greatest Hits Live DTSThe Corrs - Unplugged 5.1 DolbyMary Black - Live CD & DVD set DTSAll widescreen 16:9 format, well recorded visually & sonically. | |
| Sssss...sibilance? Have you tried cleaning the cable contacts & than applying them with Walker SST or similar (Mapleshade SilClear)? This has worked very well in my system which has a tendency to sound bright on some recordings before. | |
| Sound is too thin. What to upgrade, add or remove? I agree with some of the responses above that you might want to try to fix the "basics" 1st before spending big $$$ on component upgrades. I will also start with simple tweaks (if you have not done this already) for eg: clean all cable contacts wi... | |
| What's under your Classe Omega, or other big amp? Oops.......I meant with the Symposium Super Plus Platform.Cheers. | |
| What's under your Classe Omega, or other big amp? with the included large couplers seems to work better for me than Aurios MIBs. The music with the Symposium sounds more dynamic & fuller. With the Aurios, the music sounds lighter and a bit more transparent. My amp is the Ayre V-3 with the fee... | |
