| Low buzzing through speaks Hello All, So I cleaned up "the nest" (still getting a kick out of that one @jackd) this morning as best I could and removed the Audioengine B1 (great call and thank you @plumptonvinyl I had my suspicions on that one as well) and reconnected a... | |
| Low buzzing through speaks Thank you @jackd! I’m going to try that tomorrow AM, and also try unplugging the IC’s from the Titan as @imhififan suggested. I’m really hoping it’s “the nest”😂 which it truly is great call on that one😂! I have a Shunyata Alpha 20 amp power ca... | |
| Low buzzing through speaks Thanks @imhififan It is more than 15 years old but I sent it to Simaudio for “calibration and cleanup” last year and she came back squeaky clean. They actually said she was in better shape than most-though they said they don’t see many of them bec... | |
| Low buzzing through speaks Thank you @russ69, but how as they are coax? I don’t have a way to connect it between amp and preamp? | |
| Low buzzing through speaks I’ve talked to the folks at Crutchfield and Emotiva and they basically said if it’s that low and you can’t hear it from the listening position to just live with it as it’s not something worth going crazy over. You really have to put your ear withi... | |
| Low buzzing through speaks Thanks @ianrmack for replying. My home is older, built in 1974. But that buzz was not there previously. I checked out the Emotiva piece, but how would I integrate that with the Furman Elite? I have 2 powered subs, my preamp, my DAC, cd player, ca... | |
| What’s Voodoo power cords signature sounding? I have actually owned several Voodoo cables. They seem well made and I think their Black Magic power cord is an absolute steal at its’ price point. I found them to have more of an almost darker sound in my system. I was using their Essence XLR IC’... | |
| Best vibration isolation for speakers on carpet? Hi again All, Appreciate ALL your thoughtful and supportive replies! Thank you! So I ended up ordering 8 of the Herbie's Threaded Stud Gliders. Much as I would have gone for some of your other suggestions, cost was a very big factor and th... | |
| Best vibration isolation for speakers on carpet? Hi All, First off thank you all so very much for all the great replies! Sounds like the Townshend Podiums would be the way to go. Unfortunately I can't afford the cost otherwise I'd do it :(. In addition to the 208's I also bought the 208C and... | |
| Coax or RCA question? Thank you @ghdprentice! That was my thought as well but Integra is the higher end of Onkyo. So I wanted to get some opinions/advice from the experts here. The problem is I truly have to turn into a contortionist to make any tweaks in behind my rig... | |
| U.P.S So sorry to hear this man. I used to work at UPS 100 years ago and if you ever saw what packages go through BEFORE they even make it to the delivery trucks you’d be horrified! They just try and push through as much volume as possible in as little ... | |
| Which pair of speakers changed your Hifi life? Dynaudio Audience 82. First time I ever truly experienced and then understood the term "disappear" when describing speakers. I remember the very first time I sat down for a critical listen after bringing them home and waiting about a week for them... | |

Great advice and I sincerely appreciate it...First things first and I’m running this puppy for a few days to break in before I play with the different settings...It does not have a standby mode ... | |

Your time and advice is truly appreciated :) I'll start with @lordmelton's suggestions and then play around from there. I know the manufacturer is just giving options-which is a g... | |
| Best Stereo Upgrade Value Speakers. I remember when I first started out 23+ years ago and going from Bose to Definitive Technology to B&W and then finally to Dynaudio. Each time offered a pretty significant jump in improvement. But pre Dyn nothing came close to the imp... |
