| Conrad Johnson Tube Amp For CJ Premier 17ls Joe,I am sure if you have upgraded the Premier 17 to e.g. a CT-5 the result would be much better, esp with the recapped P140. I had the CA200 for a while and it is indeed very good. Maybe you can use the freed up funds to upgrade the power cord an... | |
| Any opinions on the AMR Digital Processor 777 Dac? Anyone know when the DSD upgrade will be available? If it's still a while off then I will order the SE upgrade, not a trivial advantage to keep their customers loyal considering most companies just sell you another model. Audiofun: did you do the ... | |
| Shootout: AMR CD-77 vs. AR CD7 vs. Wadia 581se Chris, I beg to differ as size of the company does not matter. If it did, we all would have Sony or Philips gear throughout. As you know, a great design is not based on economics but the ability to understand how to get closer to the soul of music... | |
| High Fidelity Cables CT-1designed by Rick Schultz Thanks Ddraudt, have upgraded the SC to CT1E and ordered one CT1U to hear the diff with the CT1E IC. With this additional investment, I wonder if it would have been better spent on a better source or DAC.Looking to hear the comments on the CT1UR. | |
| High Fidelity Cables CT-1designed by Rick Schultz Would appreciate to hear your comments re upgrade from CT1E to CT1U interconnects. I have a full loom of HFC and am very pleased, having skimped a bit on the SC, I am in the midst of upgrading from the CT1 speaker cables (just listed) to the CT1E ... | |
| Right angle IEC power cable Audience does provide right angle power plug upgrades ($75 for both ends), I ordered some for one of my systems as the space is tight behind the rack. They fits very snug as well as a side effect. | |
| Hidiamond vs Hifidelity interconnects Anyone have heard the improved HD digital ref RCA in their system? IME, the HF CT1E digital is a much better fit (better imaging, more airy) than the mid 2013 model of the HD digital ref, it beats also my Tara Labs ISM Onboard Digital 0.8 XLR in t... | |
| Hidiamond vs Hifidelity interconnects ditto re the gain, the HFC CT1E in fact has upped the volume by nearly a full db in my system. Compared to the HD8 it has definitely more air and resolution, no contras. | |
| DIY AC cable...which bulk cable? Lacee,thanks for your comments. I mentioned $250 as I want not to exclude good alternatives. Which Furutech model would you recommend that has the best value in the upper end? As a rule of thumb I never buy the most expensive ones, though IME the ... | |
| DIY AC cable...which bulk cable? Closely related to this topics and some have touched the subject: which are the best AC plugs under $250? I would like also to know about the best wall socket under $250 but there is a long outstanding thread (a bit idling at the moment) on that one. | |
| Nordost Valhalla 2 announced Bo1972: look up obnoxious in your dictionary. Your record sounds broken, the same track all over again. | |
| Nordost Valhalla 2 announced How many of you have upgraded from to Valhalla 2? What other cables have you heard in your system before making the jump? | |
| High Fidelity Cables CT-1designed by Rick Schultz Petieboy12003, I agree that there are some who do not contribute at all on some threads (but not on this one) and personally, I hate those who are quick to insert their one liner/word "YMMV" without the slightest contribution. Indeed, we need a re... | |
| HiDiamond Power cords... Ozzy, off topic re HD power cords but have you tried plugged everything into that P10? | |
| PI Audio Uberbuss John,Did you try a newer socket like the SR Tesla SE or Furutech GTX-D or R in the Ueberbuss?Roscoeiii,is the Ueberbuss much better than the Magik?TIA |
