| Footers under big heavy speakers (Stillpoints Ultra 5, Sistrum rack, Finite Elements,..?) Thanks for all your input! Adding a wooden platform may not be a good solution on my suspended floor so I am still debating between converting the vibration into energy a la Stillpoints or Finite Elements or conducting them away fast a la Star Sou... | |
| Granny ring, Jetrexpro, all Bill, thanks for your tip, I ordered a while ago the same stuff through PartsConnexion as the Neotech were also discounted there as I stocked up on my favorite Furutech F11 during PC annual 25% end of year discount. I will also have the cheap Soni... | |
| Why are people always getting into pissing matches because they think what they have is better Taters, some thread you have started (again). I guess we can expect more attempts at psychoanalysis and yes, you may indeed sitting back smirking at it all. Show more of your dark side :^) | |
| Funniest Quote About Your Audio "Affliction" When I bought some tall bass traps for the first time a long ,long time ago, a neighbor came in for a drink and asked why I bought them as " I thought you like dogs better, are you getting a cat now?" | |
| Star Sound Apprentice platforms t_ramey, did you try the 103 or 104 under your monoblocks? I am revisiting isolation in my main system and have stacked another Symposium Svelte Plus shelf onto the existing Svelte but have found that some mass loading in form of granite slabs did... | |
| Silent Source cables-Need advice regarding customer service or lack of-- +2Frank is great to work with and his Music Reference power cords are keepers. As we all get older, health issues may impact the way how small boutique shops can operate their business. | |
| Looking for really fine cables at really low price As mentioned in another post, I prefer the WE10ga for speaker cables (single runs) and power cords so far, I am finished at least 4 variants for power cords and will test them after burning in. For sourcing, Wallace Jacobs (tajacobs on Ebay) is ve... | |
| Looking for really fine cables at really low price +1 Yep, there are important things than audio. People and places come before things.Mac: and I have about 200 ft of the We 10ga. I am more crazed to buy so many High Fidelity cables at such high prices. WE is already running out on Ebay so better... | |
| Questions on KT150 tubes I may try them in my CJ LP140m so feel free to PM me if you don't like your quads.Also, anyone tried the cryo'd version ? | |
| Back in the 80's and 90's Audio Research and Conrad Johnson I liked ARC (tube gear) more back then and have been using both for a while. CJ SS amps were great but not superb, except for e.g. the MF80 (a bit too warm but for those days great), MF2250A and esp the MF2500A. Never had the Premier 350 that has ... | |
| Looking for really fine cables at really low price Thanks mac for the reassurance. I pulled the trigger for a 1,000ft roll.Never before was I so convinced getting so much for so little. Albeit late to the game, I have now stocked up on the WE10ga and WE14ga and will start replacing wiring inside s... | |
| Star Sound Apprentice platforms Try putting the amp and stand directly on the floor. The wooden dresser may be the culprit. | |
| Source for Belden 9497 speaker wire? So can I assume you bought some, how do they sound? | |
| AMR DP-777, what am I missing ? After evaluating two new D A C around $10k last two weeks, I came around to re appreciate what the DC 777 can do; too bad it doesn't handle DSD. It's internal volume / preamp function is awesome. | |
| Granny ring, Jetrexpro, all Bill, happy to hear that! Which connectors did you use?Many manufacturers braid the power cords like LossLess and I find this, so far, better than the non or twisted versions. I will stick to WE10ga for power, although the version 4 I made with... |
