MC402 vs FPB 300cx
Krell is recommending capacitively coupling the amp to resolve the glare issue-FPB is direct coupled of course. Something they recommend to do with Tube Preamps regardless, which I have. The KAV I owned before this FPB comes from the factory capac...

MC402 vs FPB 300cx
I think you might be right, and if nothing else it's the path of least resistance first. I am actually anxious to try the Auditorium 23's as they are supposed to great for the money. I guess you could say 8tc is not quite up to the task of this sy... 
MC402 vs FPB 300cx
Another theory on this glare I am experiencing is the listening room...I have increased the soundstage of the speaker considerably blah, blah, blah. Maybe getting glare of the walls etc I was not getting before because the sound is greater. Crazy? 
MC402 vs FPB 300cx
Great advice Audphile1...You really know your stuff. thx!I have Nordost Tyr from source to pre, and pre to amp. Then Kimber 8tc for speakers. My dealer has already suggested it being the speaker cables and he is going to send me a set of Auditoriu... 
MC402 vs FPB 300cx
Hey Aduphile1...I have not had a chance to get back there yet. I gotta be honest, I am afraid if I go back and listen to the 803d's again will walk out with them and $8k worth of debt. I am experiencing a little glare, or glassiness if you will wi... 
Help critic my system
Saaaaaaweeet system! I would axe the PS Audio on the amp completely. Krells like power off the wall, Krell will tell you that too. Dedicated outlet. Not to mention PS is a complete alteration of power, converting from AC to DC back to AC in their ... 
MC402 vs FPB 300cx
Amp is in, first impressions are good to excellent. To be honest the amp is not even close broken in yet. Previous owner just cracked the box 10 months ago and he was using for rear channels in HT. Go figure....Wish I could use a 400cx for rear ch... 
Help My Krell amp is too big.
How's the ventilation around the EVO? And how do you like it? Congrats on a nice purchase too. : ) 
macmini spdif out vs. usb
Own the Cosecant, owned the Brick-both incredible products...Have done exhaustive research on this matter...Choose whatever DAC you like, but I can tell you from experience of going through the Computer DAC "as a front end route", and listening to... 
Has anybody heard the new Nagra CD Player?
Goatwuss-you're entitled to your opinion. But I would ask you to substantiate your statement a little more, I already have. Just keep a close eye on whats going in the markets, and you will see how Cd's will continue, emphasis on continue, to fade... 
How does Totem do it ???
Gsdye....Thats the best story I have ever read on AG. So cool that you had that happen to you, and that you were able to have so much fun without spending gobbs of money. We all know this hobby can unreasonably empty our pockets. : ) Good luck wit... 
Help My Krell amp is too big.
The EVOs get hot as heck too, and the 402 is still only a inch and half less in width, a little less than an inch taller, about 3 inches deeper than the FPB 400cx (??) you have. If your cabinet is only 22 inches deep, doesn't this make things wors... 
Has anybody heard the new Nagra CD Player?
what equipment was connected to the Nagra? 
Krell 400xi vs. BAT VK-300x vs. McIntosh MA6900
Nwavesailor-I mean no personal ball-breaking to you or any other McIntosh owner here on AG, just my thoughts on the matter is all-sorry if they come across strong. I guess I was just expecting more from McIntosh equipment. Either way, doesn't matt...
