| Pass Labs X0.2 vs. X1 I think you have to understand the law of diminishing returns. It's very prevelent in audio. Many times you pay a 100% price increase for small differences, maybe a 3-5% sonic improvement. I'm sure this law would encompass Pass electronics just as... | |

| Pass Labs X0.2 vs. X1 I would think your first move would be to upgrade the front end digital source. I believe getting a better cd player (or two) would provide a bigger upgrade than going from a X1 to a X0.2.I personally haven't found a Universal player to my liking,... | |
| New Condo, time to downsize?? Well, it's (Rowland Concentra II) a great SS integrated, with lots more power, to give you more speaker options. It is not etched or too smooth. I would say it leans towards the warm side. Somewhat tubey sounding, but not nearly as fleshed out as ... | |

| Any Drawbacks to COD Avguygeorge, this site is still safer than Ebay, but not as safe as it used to be when I first joined (Sept 2000) IMHO. I see you've been a member longer than me. As AudiogoN and the internet in general become more established and recognized, the ... | |
| Anyone pay 1st price, Even if it's fair ? Poll Driver, you're right! I'm 12 transactions behind you.Time to sell off the system and start over.I'll pass you yet!FWIW, I just replied to a ad last night and offered full price, no questions asked.

| 20A power cord on 15A amp connector? DT, No, you cannot use a 20A connector on a 15A jack.The blades are oriented at a 90 degree angle, so it will not work. 20A connectors on power cords are much more common today, but you would need a modern power conditioner or amp with 20A input j... | |
| Help with CD player upgrade Hey Pat,I'm re-considering my direction, with the good advice from Slappy. I think I could use more strippers and drugs. Selling the whole rig to finance the new direction and going with just my new OTL tube headphone amp. Plugged into my Hydra of... |
