| Mapleshade Golden Helix Vs Double Helix The Mapleshade ribbon jumpers are super cheap and great for bi-wiring. | |
| Best Power Cord for a Classe CA 2300 If you are a big Classe amp fan, I would consider stepping up to the CA-M300 mono blocks, and a pair of more modest power cords, such as Tekline Reference or Audience. Pangea is great for the price too. | |
| Best Power Cord for a Classe CA 2300 I think that unfortunately, original equipment power cords are often chosen by the accountants and not the engineers. | |
| Best Power Cord for a Classe CA 2300 When I purchased a Classe Twenty Five amp in the 90's, the Classe manual actually recommended an upgrade power cord. I was shocked. But they were right. I have liked Tekline cords on Classe and other amps. | |
| Mapleshade Golden Helix Vs Double Helix I have had both Jim, and prefer the Mapleshade Double Golden Helix Plus (in my system, in my room). I find they are easy to buy/sell used, and the used price has changed very little over the years. I liked the Clear Day Double Shotgun, but prefere... | |
| $1,500 Amp budget - Best options? Yes John, those MS4's somehow got from my living room, to that fiend's basement! (though maybe I remember carrying them down the stairs...) | |
| Mapleshade Golden Helix Vs Double Helix I have Golden Helix and Double Golden Helix Plus and to me it's definitely worth the difference. Plus it's easy to buy/sell used. | |
| $1,500 Amp budget - Best options? I was amazed at the sound of Odyssey Khartago Extreme SE on my fiends Dali MS4, amp was filling in for Thor tube mono blocks. And the Odyssey is even under your budget new. | |
| ARC LS25 with PASS X250 - bad match? Seems bright. I used an ARC LS25ll with Pass X250 without any brightness issues, and thought it was a great combination. Have alsoi owned a Dacmagic and agree it is not up to the quality of the Pass or ARC. | |
| What is the best loudspeaker for a small room? Dali Euphonia MS4 | |
| What is the best power cord for pass labs xa100.5? Different preferences? | |
| Best speaker for under 2gs Aerial 8b and 7b both currently available. Great speakers. | |
| Pass XP-10 and Jeff Rowland Capri pre I love my Capri with Pass X250.5. Capri replaced ARC LS25ll. Optional Phono stage is great too. haven't heard the XP-10. | |
| What is the best power cord for pass labs xa100.5? On the other hand, does Pass want to increase the costs of their amps by including an expensive ultra high quality cord, knowing the owner will quite possibly change the cord anyway... | |
| What is the best power cord for pass labs xa100.5? Excellent points, and well said Byron. Also want to mention that buying and selling used power cords on Audiogon is very inexpensive, and they will be going on $18,000.00 mono blocks. Clearly worth finding out if power cords can improve the sound ... |
