Review: Rosinante Jaden Signature IC & Speaker Cables Interconnect I too am a big fan of the Jaden cables. I'm using a Jaden IC between my Viva Linea line stage and Berning ZH-270 amp; Jaden Signature's between my EMC-1 cdp and Viva; and Jaden speaker cables to my Dulcineas. To put things in perspective, the Jade... | |
Can anyone tell me about CD demagnatizers? I've got a question concerning the Auric Illuminator gel. I store my cd's in plastic sleeves that contain a cotton-like material on the inside. The data surface of the cd is placed facing this material. The label side touches soft polyethylene-lik... | |
MERLIN OWNERS: Need Suggestions on Amps/Preamps Yag17,Have no fear using the Berning Zh-270 in a home theater setup. I'm using mine with Rosinante Dulcinea speakers 91dB/ 8 ohm, with great success. Prior to the Dulcinea's, I was driving Aerial 7B's with the Berning. Again, no problems, even tho... | |

Review: Argent Room Lens - Ric Cummins Cables Speaker cable I too recently inserted Ric's speaker cables and IC into my system. These cables replaced the excellent Nordost Quattro Fil and Kimber 8TC. Granted, the 8TC is considered a middle of the road speaker cable, but I think most would agree that it pro... | |
Which worse- long I/C of speaker run Thanks Sean. Per your suggestion, I read your post on Cables 101 and found it very informative. Comforting to know that you consider my current cables pretty good. I'll try to audition some others soon. | |
Which worse- long I/C of speaker run Sean,Do you know of any low-impedance cables that you have tried and can recommend? I'm currently using a 16 ft run of Kimber 8TC, and always wondered how they might be coloring the sound. My system consists of Electrocompaniet EMC-1, Berning Zh-2... | |
Placette pasive pre vs. BAT VK-50SE MikeLavigne:Interested in your opinion on my situation, since you're familiar with my amp. I've got a Berning ZH-270 that has it's own volume control, but no remote. IYHO, do you think I would be better off using a Placette RVC vs going direct fro... | |
Energy, Environment & High End Audio Here's a thread that you might find interesting concerning the Berning ZH-270 tube amp. 70 powerful watts per side and uses 100w at idle, 300 at full power. Extremely versatile, reliable and great sounding. Unfortunately they're hard to find, and ... | |
Kaleidoscope patterns on dvd? Centurymantra: Thanks for your offer of the tape. I'm looking forward to viewing it.Bufus: Sounds interesting. If I had duplicate copies of a cd, I could synch them and watch the lightshow from the Samsung while listening to the audio from my EMC-... | |

electrocompaniet new upgrade information Ericbee,No. The upgrade that SOS is referring to will be the next upgrade. You are right that the upgrade that I just had installed is the only upgrade currently available. I wasn't even aware of a future upgrade. Had I been, I might have waited t... | |
electrocompaniet new upgrade information Ericbee,I think you meant to say 24/192, not 24/96. The former is contained in the upgrade kit provided my Electrocompaniet. It includes a new brass plate for the top of the cdp that indicates it has been upgraded to "24 bit upsampler 192khz dac". | |
electrocompaniet new upgrade information Tweety,I just had my EMC-1 upgraded on Wednesday by a dealer. It consists of a new dac board that replaces the old one, plus some capacitors & resistors. Not anything I wanted to tackle. Cost is $1,000 for the upgrade kit, plus installation. I... | |
