| Review: Shunyata V-Ray AC filter Thanks for the review. I have alos been considering the V-Ray. Out of curiosity, what power cord are you using with the V-Ray?Cheers,John | |
| Gabriel Gold IC's are they really this good? As a retailer/distriburor like yourself such a reply surely does reflect well upon your professionalism.Audiobuzz Ahhhh, so it is money! His secret identity revealed. I knew you had to be in the business or emotionally insecure. For the record, Au... | |
| Gabriel Gold IC's are they really this good? Audiobuzz, once again I have to ask if you have any affiliation with GG. You seem to jump on Jafox pretty quickly, just like you jumped on me in the Jade thread. 4 of your 7 thread responses on record indicate promoting GG cables. So, is there fin... | |
| A More Forward Sound Stage/ Cables the answer? I agree with Clio09, look into Virtual Dynamics cables if you want a forward soundstage. I prefer the 'laid back' sound, that's why Virtual Dynamics cables did not work for me. I believe you can get their entry level Power/Testament level at a rea... | |
| Is it worth this tonearm? Nice choices so far Peter. If it were me, I would choose the Tri-planar, it is a first rate arm that takes a backseat to no one, IMHO.Cheers,John | |
| JADE AUDIO Cables Thanks John, things that make me go hmmmm. I also demo'd the 8 ft burn in pair of Vermeil and was very impressed. I await your further testing after the 4 ft pair is burned in. I'd really hate to go to an 8 foot pair, not just because of cost, but... | |
| Does digital mastering/remastering "ruin" LP's? Yes, IMHO digital mastering/remastering does degrade the sound. I own some LP's from the early 80's that were 'digitally mastered' that sound pretty close to cd like quality. There is nothing quite like a pure analog signal.John | |
| Gabriel Gold IC's are they really this good? Yes, this is fun! 8-)I have tried a couple of Don's cords. I find them to be very good values and extremely musical. Not the last word in resolution, and the heaviest and stiffest cords I've ever tried. Someday I will have to see if I can borrow s... | |
| Opportunity to buy the best Preamp... but which? 06-28-07: AtmasphereSo- if there is no 'best', doesn't it seem that there are a lot of manufacturers *saying* they have the best? I agree they can't all be right :)Seems to be an awful lot of pizza manufacturers saying 'You've tried all the rest, ... | |
| Gabriel Gold IC's are they really this good? Hi Art,Thanks for the well wishes, fortunately the family issues are not health related (knock wood). I'm sorry if I misled you.Yes, I still have the Dream on my preamp as well as on my phono preamp and cd player. I think it makes the biggest diff... | |
| Gabriel Gold IC's are they really this good? 06-27-07: JoeyboynjJmcgrogan2, Have you tried the new Tesla Acoustic Reference and Precision Reference cables yet? I would love to hear how they compare to PAD and Jade.No, I have not heard either of the two cables you mentioned yet. I cannot say ... | |
| Opportunity to buy the best Preamp... but which? 06-28-07: AtmasphereSo the 'best' does not exist?Well I think 'the best' does exist in many different forms. What is 'the best' to one may not be 'the best' to another. So I would say there is no 'absolute best', that is one that everyone WILL agr... | |
| Static on Vinyl Is your tube preamp grounded with a clear path? I know this may sound simple, but some power cords have no ground, and some have a resistive ground, that's why I ask.If your preamp does have a clear path to ground, then try the humidifiers as ment... | |
| Excellent turntables with threaded spindles ? I agree with Rushton, a spindle does not need to be threaded to have an effective clamping system. I own a Basis 2500 Diamond Signature, which has a unique no-thread clamp design as well. I actually prefer it over my old VPI HW-19 mk IV which had ... | |
| Leave an amp "on" permanetly If so, would people recommend leaving a SS amp on permanently?Absolutely!!Could I damage my amp by doing this?No!Cheers,John |
