| Power cords and soundstage Jylee, I'll be interested to hear what has happened to your imaging and soundstage after these new power cords have had some time to run in.It's been only a few days and I think it's still a little to early to say for sure. My ears got acclimated ... | |
| Dual-layer SACD Gain Issues What is the software that was used to copy the CD? Some of the software that claims "direct copy" really extracts the CD to audio format native to the platform. Then the volume normalization and other adjustments can be unintentionally made by the... | |
| Power cords and soundstage If I could add some clarification in the changes I made, I removed two PCs, one from a component not being used, and one from the MCH power amp responsible for powering the center and surrounds with MCH material. Then I moved the PC from the main ... | |
| Power cords and soundstage 09-19-08: Douglas_schroederJylee, you are not crazy at all. You're quite sane.Thanks. Just what I needed to hear after a few days of watching the roller coaster ride in the stock market. Now I'm going to pour myself a glass of wine put on some music. | |
| Classe SSP-600 or Parasound C-1/Any recommendation If I were to purchase a processor today I would get one with HDMI inputs, hidef codec, and Audyssey room equalizer. The current generation of processors that do not have HDMI and hidef codecs will quickly become obsolete and/or lose significant va... | |
| Power cords and soundstage FWIW I do have a 20A dedicated line drawn from the main panel for my audio gears. | |
| Power cords and soundstage It is jungle indeed, Tvad. Please show me the way out. :)Pierre, I haven't done any AB testing yet. One thing I might want to add is the only other time I was able to hear the difference in the power cords was on the digital front end, and that po... | |

| New miles davis cd.... wow I have two remastered releases of Kind of Blue. One is 20 bit remaster redbook CD (CK 64935). It has a lot of tape hiss, but sounds exceptional with a lot of detail. The second is hybrid SACD (CS 64935). They removed a lot of tape hiss on this new... | |
| Playstation 3 Blue Ray quality - How good is it ? The demographics of typical posters at avsforum are high school or college kids who firmly believe their own $500 CD player sounds best. There are a few excellent contributors there, but I wouldn't make purchase decision based on the recommendatio... | |
| Next move. Are you setting it up for HT / multi channel system or stereo? If you are setting up a stereo system you might want to stick to traditional two channel amps instead. Good performance and excellent value can be found with Acurus, Aragon, Adcom, and... | |
| Speaker Purchase I've owned B&W Nautilus 804, and auditioned Vienna Acoustics Beethoven Concert Grand and Sonus Faber Cremona at my friends system. To my ears Beethoven sounds the best among three. There are other variables as they were in three different room... | |
| What's the bottom line on Oppo 980 for CD playback Use the common sense. It's not realistic to expect $200 universal player to outperform $3000 one. If you were not satisfied with $1000 Cary DVD player, there is little chance you'll find a $200 player better in performance. If you don't care about... | |
