| Review: Transparent Audio REF XL Speaker cable Madfloyd, I have a triplanar also. I had mine factory wired with a din (about 4 inches of wire past arm base). So I know it can be done...just don't know how easy/hard for a existing arm...mine was ordered new this way... | |
| Review: Transparent Audio REF XL Speaker cable Peter,Wow, first off what a incredible review. The first thing I notice is how carefully you listen.

Last year I traded in my Puccini/ucl... | |
| Which is better: Transport+DAC or PC system+DAC Hi, be careful, you have a killer good digital system already. You may find better power cords, isolation or interconnects more effective...May i ask what is the rest of your system? | |
| Alternatives for Transparent Reference MM2 +1 on samhar's recommendation. I have Transparent Ref MM2 in my system. It's a wonderful cable. (if you buy new you don't have to pay the price to retune it...but I guess you pay one way or the other huh...)You have one of the best cables anywhere... |
