| Your favourite Rush albums? Signals & Moving Pictures. The last song on Signals "Countdown" is such an awesome inspiring song. The launch of the space shuttle Columbia which the bad attended. | |
| Krell fpb 250m Krell makes a "Krell Link" that you can use for delayed startup. I use it on my system so the pre-amp starts first, them the amp. These amps draw a lot of current when they first fire up. It may be not getting enough juice at startup and shuts ... | |
| New Amps Arrived... "So you're now driving $3250 speakers with $10k worth of amps?" That;s what I do. I have thought a few times of "upgrading" speakers but I am so happy with mine I bought a new KTM300 instead. :') | |
| Beware of the cable claiming long burn in period. prof1,714 posts02-18-2019 4:32pmaniwolfe,"It took over 300 hours to really sound great."What do you think is happening within the cable over those 300 hours that would alter the sound?>>>>Unbelievable. Believable. | |
| Anyone still using monster M2.2S cables (the really fat ones ) I still run them to my Infinity Renaissance 90 speakers from a Krell 300cx amp. They sound awesome. -John | |
| What internet stations are you donating to this year? Yup Radio Paradise. Best fidelity and entertainment for me an my Mrs.-John | |
| Web / Streaming Radio I stumbled on this while poking around the Radio Paradise website. They are the streaming server & host a lot of stations. Click on streams and there may be some stations to your liking. http://www.icecast.org/ezstream/I haven't had the tim... | |
| Listening to equipment at home before you buy Ditto to Veridian's "not an audiophile" statement. I bought some of my equipment used. If I didn't like it, I could hawk it like someone did to me. I ended up keeping almost all of it. One caveat is I treat my gear like a body part for a transpl... | |
| My 1976 Recordings That's awesome. Thanks. | |
| Best PC to use as a Server I asked this myself in late 2016 https://forum.audiogon.com/discussions/looking-for-laptop-windows-10-for-music-only Folks recommended Eluktronics as a laptop and they seemed like a good choice as the mfg says they are loaded with basic Windows an... | |
| Best CD lens cleaner I use one on my home CD player whenever it acts wonky or has playing issues. Fixes it right up. Why would you not want to use one? Similar to a cleaning a camera lens. I use the Maxell version with the small brush.-John | |
| What Matters and What is Nonsense Well I'm in deep do-do, cuz my amp & preamp cost 10K and my Infinity Ren 90's $1500. Drat the luck.-John | |
| Pass labs X250.5 cracking noise From my Krell owners manual: "When powering on any system, turn on amplifiers last. Turn off amplifiers first. "I made the mistake of turning off the pre-amp first once & the sound that came out of the speakers was not pretty. Scared the heck... | |
| RECORDS THAT HAVE IMPRESSED PEOPLE SO MUCH THEY BOUGHT MY STEREO Shadorne: I heard the live acoustic version of "Keith..." on Radio Paradise a couple weeks ago while driving and it is freakin' awesome. Thanks for reminding me. Off to Tidal I go to play it at home. Thanks for reminding my geriatric ass about i... | |
| Real World Records 1/2 speed Remasters Also curious as to the quality of the new vinyl. My original vinyl copies are atrocious. Probably some of the worst mfg. processed LP's I own. I would listen on Tidal instead, but I don't believe his LP's are on there to play.-John |
