| Resolving CD Transports Crowd Sourcing @wharfy The owner says purchasing it, and getting a replacement CDPro2, just in case, from ARC ($500 with S/H) is a no brainer with my ARC components. I would contact ARC and ask about ordering the replacement CDPro2 just to verify its availa... | |
| Bluesound Node N130 @lowrider57 I also have a 2i. I have not used autofill, so take this with a grain of salt, but it appears to me that its function is not related to the DAC. By default, BluOS has the Autofill feature enabled. With this feature enabled, when y... | |
| Bluesound Node N130 +1 @2psyop Bluesound customer service has been great when needed. Confused why posters above have basically said to ignore that coax is faulty and use usb. May sound better, but assuming it is a new unit all functions s/b working. | |
| Which Would You Choose? @grislybutter Ha, you were waaay too subtle, went right over my head. My system is also modest and I love it. All good. | |
| Which Would You Choose? @grislybutter @jetter you cannot seriously tell us that anything under 10K is not junk Absolutely I do think so. Without doing much thinking, a new Pass xa25 is about $5K. A set of the new Clayton Shaw Caladan speakers are around $3.5K. Qu... | |
| Which Would You Choose? @baylinor Be careful what you ask for on this site. OP is thinking of switching amp and some recommendations given are you need to upgrade EVERYTHING LOL. Yes, it’s true. And it’s the same old timers who seem unaware of the fun many audiophil... | |
| Resolving CD Transports Crowd Sourcing By the way, a CD player or transport are really pretty much the only items I would hesitate to buy used or a discontinued model. | |
| Resolving CD Transports Crowd Sourcing @ghdprentice You’re among many knowledgeable ARC lovers. But for me, and quoting myself, to calm all doubts of repairability other than hearsay, before I purchased the unit. Unless you actually purchase an extra transport from Audio Research’s... | |
| Kappa 6 midrange replacement Before you do anything talk to the best who will likely repair them better than new for an incredibly reasonable $ amount in a matter of days. Millersound Speaker Refoaming, Speaker Reconing and Repair Services | |
| Resolving CD Transports Crowd Sourcing ARC CD9/SE Unless you actually purchase an extra transport from Audio Research's supposed stash of extra discontinued transports, I would find buying an expensive discontinued CD player without surety of repair a fools errand. I find the theory ... | |
| Alpha Core Goertz If I was to give my OPINION, I would place them between the + and - of the speaker’s woofer connections. I have read and in my experience the zobel networks have no impact on sound. Out of an abundance of caution for your beautiful system it wou... | |
| Alpha Core Goertz @ozzy They are about 4 inches long and the connection points are bare wire. From my own use and reading they are usually used at the speaker end and one network is placed between the positive (+) and negative (-) ends of your terminals. As you... | |
| Alpha Core Goertz @ozzy I believe The Cable Company sells the zobel networks. I am not sure they will sell them separate from a cable purchase or not. | |
| Big speakers, are they really the best way to get great sound? I recently heard the Sonus Faber Lilium speakers driven by McIntosh MC451 dual mono amps via MSB streamer/DAC/pre in a room best described as medium and it sounded beautiful. | |
| New speakers unveiled from Clayton Shaw - Caladan @soix @woodsage So, what’s your point here cause I don’t see one. A guy with more speaker design “bonafides” than you’ll ever know in your lifetime puts out what looks to be a potentially very high value product and you have to crawl outta you... |
