| Hypex Ncore NC1200 Amps at NY Audio Show in April The Raidho D-1 Monitors were stunning on their custom stands. (The integrated speaker package has an MSRP of $28,000.) It was quite surprising how they are able to fill the room. For a smallish profile, they were amazingly full range and dynamic. ... | |
| Hypex Ncore NC1200 Amps at NY Audio Show in April HiFiAlThen if the "noise" was not present during the silence parts then it can not be the equipment.

| Hypex Ncore NC1200 Amps at NY Audio Show in April The two rooms with the Merrill Audio Veritas and the one room with the Mola-Mola sounded different from each other.

The cymbals did not have the sure footed metallic sound. I could not confuse this sound with a life pe... | |
| Loss of bass & full spectrum sound What gauge do I currently have?My cables are Audioquest Comet biwireAudioquest does not publish specs regarding their cables gauge or electrical behavior, for some reason. I'm guessing here, but I doubt they offer large gauge speaker cable for the... | |
| Loss of bass & full spectrum sound A few suggestions:1.Use 10 gauge or 8 gauge speaker wire. Get the Belden 5T00UP (10awg) or the Canare Star Quad 4S11 (8awg). The thicker cable will offer less resistance than similarly designed smaller gauge cable. In my experience, I get deeper b... | |
| Nordost Blue Heaven speaker cable..what a delusion What's ironic is that I communicated to John @ The Cable Co. that I wanted to move up the line to the Red Dawn II or perhaps the Tyr line. I never got a replied.In the end, I got a set of Sterevox SEI 600 cables from another dealer, which were rea... | |
| Nordost Blue Heaven speaker cable..what a delusion Rockness87,I had the same experience with the Nordost Blue Heaven, which I purchased the The Cable Company. This cables made my system sound very thick. I tried to return them and the salesman at The Cable Co. (John Pharo) said they needed to sett... | |
| D-Sonic peak current output compared to other Whatever Robert Harley said is his experience, which becomes statistical fact. Others can agree with him or not based on their own experience, which can be totally different.I don't think there is actually a "myth" related to the importance of cur... | |

| Just got a platter upgrade If he is not responding, it is most likely that he's out of town. I once sent him an email while he was out of Germany and he replied to it once he got back to Acoustic Signature.Just be patient. | |
| Streaming music thru Apple TV or digital player I have the first generation Apple TV, which has an internal hard drive. I feed the signal to the Benchmark DAC1 Pre via an AudioQuest OptiLink 5 Toslink cable. Other cheap Toslking cables I tried made the sound flat and thin.I sold my Krell CD pla... |
