| Dedicated 20 amp circuit - Electrician laughed! I use a PS Audio P20 for powering my whole system, and my system definitely sounds better with a massive Elrod Statement feeding the P20 from the wall instead of their supplied basic power cord or even a VH Audio Airsine. Now, I have only run it ... | |
| Religious music for less than devout Mozart's "Requiem" - - just outstanding, feeling music. That also serves a religious point. | |
| Who buy PS AUDIO ? @tomcy6 My P20 seems to bring great sound all the time, without the mid-day blues. Every other type of power conditioning I have used didn't seem to counter that. I think their latest generation of regenerators are bringing something very good! | |
| Who buy PS AUDIO ? Overall, I think the BHK gear is pretty good value for dollar. I run the 300 mono's driving some TAD CR-1's, and it is an outstanding match. I have tried a Luxman M900u in their place, and it is not the right match with the TAD's, IME - - I like... | |
| Your favorite Mahler recordings on vinyl Find the Solti/CSO offering on London/Decca for a riveting Symphony 2. I find that I keep going back to that one. | |
| Considering A SS amplifier When I had speakers on either side of our fireplace, I placed the amp in the basement below and between them. Then I drilled holes to run cabling down to and back from the amp. Worked very nicely. | |
| Expectations after re cap of power-amp Re-cap the Adcom for use in the second system? | |
| Expectations after re cap of power-amp If you can do the work yourself, the cost is quite minimal. That's the route I took, but I am comfortable with a soldering iron, and the particular component had nice access to the capacitor leads for de-soldering (the hardest part!). I opened u... | |
| Anyone else grateful that they got hooked on this crazy addiction "More money than sense..." That's a phrase you often see bandied about on the audio forums. From my perspective, if you have the appreciation of music and sound quality, and you have the money, how sensible is it to deny yourself the pleasure o... | |
| Expectations after re cap of power-amp Replaced all the electrolytics in a tube amp with 15 (hot) years on it, and it made a very nice sonic improvement - - all upside, no down, and no dramatic change in the overall voicing of the amp. I hope you will be as pleased with your recapping... | |
| DartZeel CTH-8550 vs PS Audio BHK 300 Mononlocks I have no experience with DartZeels in my system. But I do have to concur with @gregm that the BHK 300 mono's should not be simply dismissed without a listen. I have them in my system driving some TAD CR-1's and they just are a superb match. I ... | |
| Upgrade my DAC or buy more weed? Weed, music, and FOOD! There's your match made in heaven.Two weeks ago I had a work buddy over for some smoking and listening, something we do every few months together. He bought me a great gift of some very fine bourbon: Blanton's Straight fr... | |
| Upgrade my DAC or buy more weed? Edibles are my least favorite way to enjoy, too much a body experience without enough brain for my tastes. And I have found the vaping pens to be sort of "monochromatic" in the buzz (I have several friends that have come to the same conclusion). ... | |
| DartZeel CTH-8550 vs PS Audio BHK 300 Mononlocks I am curious to hear which of the several above proponents of Dart over PSA have heard both in the same system. What differences would you note? TIA | |
