| UNIverse Cu ,XV-1S,Shelter 9000 wt BATVkp10seSupe Raul - Thanks. Back in the days when tone controls were the norm I always seemed to end up with the treble nob at minus one, midrange at zero and bass at +1 or +2. So it seems like maybe I've got the best match of the two for my personal preferences. | |
| UNIverse Cu ,XV-1S,Shelter 9000 wt BATVkp10seSupe Rauliruegas - You wrote "it has a more natural/neutral balance". If you have time I'd like to know if this means that you feel the XV-1 is a bit warmer in character or a bit less warm in character. | |
| Dedicated Power Line - Directions for Electrician? 1. Run 10 gauge solid copper romex. 2. Get very anal about making sure you have a rock solid ground(s) back to the distribution panel. 3. Use 20 amp receptacles, 4 outlets vs 2 can be very handy. 4. Running a second circuit is optional, sometimes ... | |

| How significant is a power cord upgrade? Tried 3 or 4 power cords on amp, cd player, pre's , etc. . Made no difference whatsoever. Have had your good experience with speaker cables and ic's however. | |
| Upgrade for Vpi aries table Gmuffley - Are you sure the new plattler doesn't weigh as much or more than the original? Just going from memory, which is dangerous, but I thought I remembered the new one feeling heavier. Perhaps this was only with the ring clamp installed.Tater... | |
| Balanced in phono stages preamp? When you get away from purely technical considerations, and you have the average buyers desire for best bang for the buck in both sound quality and reliability, you wonder which approach outweighs the other at a fixed cost of manufacture? | |
| Balanced in phono stages preamp? Atmasphere - I never understood why it is said that phono cartridges are balanced, given that they are a two wire device. For the particular connection between two wire cart and pre amp ,i.e. signal still single ended until split into balanced at ... | |
| Cables for Nu-Vista, Marantz SA-14 & Confidence 5 I liked the match of cardas neutral reference speaker cables with confidence 3's. FWIW. | |
| UNIverse Cu ,XV-1S,Shelter 9000 wt BATVkp10seSupe I swapped from a 901 to a 90X. I'm using a tweaked VPI Aries (heavy platter, sds, etc.), JMW10 and a VKP10SE and listen to Rock and a little bit of everything else. To me it was a worthwhile upgrade because I feel like I got a noticable improvemen... | |
| Do we believe in Machina Dynamics? As far as the brilliant pebbles, weight loading components is pretty well excepted as a tweak that can sometimes have a positive effect. I haven't bought the pretty rocks or other expensive means to do this, but I suspect that some folks have used... | |
