| Suggestions for a 'good' FM antenna? I'm using the Fanfare FM-2G. It's a superb antenna that can be mounted in the attic or outside. I compared it with the "similar" Magnum Dynalab antenna and found the Fanfare to bring in a little better reception. Check out its review at the Fanfar... | |
| Good Site for buying Power Cables If you really want the best advice on power cords, visit the Sanctuary of Sound here in the Audiogon. Stewart is the power cord guru. He carries more power cords than probably anyone on the planet and gives honest, unbiased opinions on them all. D... | |
| I'm convinced-just ordered Black Mamba Congrats on your new power cord. I've owned Black Mambas for almost a year and find them to be outstanding at their price level. Wanted to let you know that these cords can take a while to fully break in. Mine started sounding good at 250 hours bu... | |
| BAT VK500 - Reliability & sound quality? I've owned my VK-500 w/batpak for over a year. The power switches have been left on for the entire time and I have had no problems with the unit. It loves a good pair of upgraded power cords, I'm currently using Black Mambas which give the amp the... | |
| Guilty pleasure music? Don't any of you guys listen to anything but rock? Yes, I'll admit I'm an old hippie. I loved Hendrix, Zepplin, Deep Purple, CS&N, etc. (and still do) however, with the gazillion dollars we have all spent on our music systems, I find that jazz... | |
| PowerSnake Owners Unite! David...How can you be so negative about a product that you have never listened to? Plain and simple...borrow a King Cobra, plug it in, give it ample time to break in, then make your statement. | |
| BEST POWER CORD FOR UNDER $200.00 Hi David...If I read correctly, you are looking to a half meter long power cord. Some of todays technology could reduce your choices since their design requires 1 to 2 meters for the cord to operate as designed. Nevertheless, I would strongly sugg... | |
| CAL sigma tube dac's Craig...I haven't auditioned the Gamma however I used to own a Sigma and currently own an Alpha tubed dac. My understanding of the Gamma is a dac that will somewhat upgrade a mid-fi cd player with a digital output. The Sigma and Sigma II have a si... | |
| Interconnect upgrade Normally, it's better to stay within the same 'family' of cables whenever you look to upgrade. Noting that you have AudioTruth speaker cables, you might consider some of the higher rez AudioTruth interconnects. I have followed this general princip... | |
| Best power cord for amp?? Tjreed is correct. They do all sound different. You will do yourself a disservice if you do not try a Powersnake in your system. It's rare to see a used one here @ the Audiogon because they are magnificent. The only time you see one is when someon... | |
| FEEDBACK ON B.A.T. VK-200 -VS-AYRE V-3 Al - This question has alot to do with the speakers your using and also the type of music you listen to. I have auditioned the Ayre amp and the BAT VK-500 (not 200) in my system. I have Martin Logan speakers. The Ayre and the Martin Logans hated e... | |
| Help, Need Info, Please Read I've tried alot of S-video cables in my satellite system and without any doubt the Tributaries SCV-S silver gives the best overall performance. The colors are very rich, the detail is outstanding. They render a brighter picture than many others al... | |
| Power cord upgrade I truly feel sad for anyone that cannot hear a significant upgrade in bass response, imaging, focus and detail when a quality power cord is introduced into their system. The ONLY thing I can possibly think is that the power cord that they are tryi... | |
| Best amp for Martin Logan CLS I also own Martin Logans (the Quest Z's) and went through the same problem. The system was too bright with Krell and Ayre had me climbing the walls. After many amp auditions, I found a great matchup for my Quests. I listened to a BAT VK-500 with B... | |
| Preamp/AM/FM Tuner with good AM GREAT! I'm glad the antenna worked for you. Enjoy! :-) |
