| What % Of Your System Are Your Cables? 3-4% for me. Speaker cables are DIY. | |
| Adding tubes to integrated setup Back in the day I had a Musical fidelity tube buffer. If you can find one of those or similar. you can use it with your Yamaha inserting it in one of the tape loops. | |
| Adding tube sound to my SS system A few years ago I had a Musical Fidelity tube buffer stage that you could put between pre amp and amp or into a tape loop, etc. I personally did not care for it, but it or something similar may be an easy easy and inexpensive way to add a little ... | |
| Adjusting Infinity IRS servo controller It may be possible to do this with a DMM. Use DCV setting to adjust offset and ACV to adjust the gain. Since you can only monitor gain or offset individually, it will be an iterative process. | |
| Speaker Cable Another vote for Mogami. | |
| Adjusting Infinity IRS servo controller I don't have any specific info on that Genesis servo, but based on my experience with the Infinity servo, I would suppose that one pot is gain and the other offset. I adjusted mine for as close to zero dc bias as I could get and the the gain for ... | |
| Adjusting Infinity IRS servo controller I had the IRS Gammas. Sold them back in 2010. I did a fair amount of work on the my servo controller plus another one (anybody remember Bobby Shred?), but since I am retired now I no longer have access to an electronics lab. | |
| Adjusting Infinity IRS servo controller If memory serves, I adjusted mine for unity gain. After I noticed that I needed to continue to make adjustments, I started keeping a log book to track it. Maybe I can find it, but I threw out a lot paper before my last move, so we'll see. | |
| Adjusting Infinity IRS servo controller I suppose it is possible that I made a mistake, but I had to re-calibrate my servo on a regular basis. Those were the pots that used. If you have access to a scope, it would be easy to verify. I'm pretty sure I gave the schematic to the new own... | |
| Adjusting Infinity IRS servo controller For some reason the picture did not post. Anyone know how? | |
| Pass Labs Speaker Choices I currently have Pass INT-150 and Martin Logan Montis. Like that pairing very much. | |
| What are we objectivists missing? Well, this did not go in the direction I had intended, but I suppose I should not be surprised. I guess the take away for me is "We don't know what we don't know". Thanks anyway. | |
| What are we objectivists missing? Not protesting or judging at all, just wondering if anyone has any speculation as to what measurements are missing. Now talk about snarky: I just completed the work on a device that measures sound quality. I call it the SQascope. Send me your m... | |
| What are we objectivists missing? Erik, "The problem I have with this argument is that it believes our existing, common measurements are all that could tell us anything about sound. I do not believe this to be true, at all. Most of the measurements audiophiles are familiar with w... | |
| What are we objectivists missing? This wasn't meant to be a troll post. I am completely serious. whipsaw: Very familiar with Nelson Pass and his take on this (I have a Pass Labs amplifier in my system and have read a bunch of his stuff). Even though he uses extensive listenin... |
