| Deal Fellow REL Owners @dalims4 Thank you for your the synopsis of your findings. You and @jerryg123 mention Signal Cable and they seem reasonably priced. Which Signal Cable did you have that was second to the vdHs? I checked vdHs' website and do not see PCs? @tablejoc... | |
| Deal Fellow REL Owners @hilde45 Thank you. Helps validate my thoughts. It's possible the Anticables L2 are overkill. How long ago did you reach out to REL? I may contact them as well. | |
| What cable companies make the best cables and sell them directly? I reached a point of needing power cables and the problem I have with many of the manufacturers is that they are like Baskin Robbins... WAY too many flavors. Talk about a major turn off. Do any of you non-shill, non-dealer, actual consumers like t... | |
| DAC recommendation in 5 to 10K range @tahsin1022 Please show me a review where someone prefers the terminator plus over the May KTE. Not being snarky, I would love to see one because I have not yet come across such. Thank you. @elan120 This is one of the best DAC reviewers I've foun... | |
| DAC recommendation in 5 to 10K range @elan120 Do yourself a favor and try to hear the Holo May KTE. Search YouTube for reviews. You will find head to head commentary on most of what has been suggested here. I have heard the MSB Discrete as well and it is decent but for me it was not ... | |
| DAC recommendation in 5 to 10K range ++Holo May. I have auditioned many DACs and is why I own a May. This includes offerings five times its price point. It is the best bargain in my journey thus far. The only knock is that is gets hot, class A hot. | |
| Anybody watch Steve Huff audio on the Tube? Steve is a great guy. How many YouTube personalities take time to respond to email? Steve does and often with thoughtful, lengthy letters. He is passionate about gear and has had a cool life as a photographer. He even has an album cover or two on ... | |
| Soundstage and image height, does it exist? My friends and I have tested this by trying the same gear in different rooms. Our conclusion is that image height is a function of ceiling height and position of the drivers. Canting the speakers fore and aft can change the image height as well. G... | |
| Your sub experience: Easy or hard? Easiest and most significant impact to SQ, to date. Started with a single REL Carbon Special. Returned it because I had to keep adjusting the gain. I could not find a one size fits all setting for my exacting taste. I tried a REL 212SX next and I ... | |
| Balanced Line Stage Tube Preamps +1 Aesthetic Calypso. I have the Signature. | |
| Anyone compared Merging+NADAC to other top dogs like Rockna, dcs, MSB etc. I was able to home demo the +player for several weeks, however I was only able to AB it against an older Accuphase and newer Lumin X1 DAC. I preferred it over those two for realism as well as the other observations above. The only knock is with t... | |
| recommended speaker cables and interconnects I too am searching for a loom. I have learned from experience that there is a huge number of counterfeit cables on the used market. Steer clear unless the seller has positive proof the cables are legit. Look for receipts and contact the manufactu... | |
| GIK alternatives Terrible build quality. PM me for specifics. It was sad after such high expectations. I can provide numerous photos from a recent delivery of several panels and traps. The good news is that they have excellent customer support. I accepted a disco... | |
| It comes with a balance knob?!?! I'll take it! What an education so far! Never purchase concert seats where one of my ears face the speaker stack Never setup my system in an awkwardly shaped space Avoid tube solutions Avoid poorly recorded tracks with off-center imaging Make sure my pre... | |
| Dedicated Circuits - Subpanel importance? Great feedback as I had hoped! I will be PM'img a few of you, hopefully soon. One electrician wanted $100 just to give an estimate. Nope. The other two were in the same ballpark, which is like fives times the cost of materials alone. They were in ... |
