| Following up on sending my Simaudio Titan in for a tune up:) Thanks @stereo5 ! Appreciate you sharing your experiences. I am truly dreading being without my system (Sim said about 3 weeks), but I do feel not only will it come back sounding even better, but I'll now know she has a clean bill of health!LOL on... | |
| What Makes your System Special? Great post! Hard to pick one thing, especially as my second go round journey (had to sell off my original system 20 years ago after divorce) has evolved so much especially only recently. My temptation is to say either my Dynaudio's or my Bifrost 2... | |
| Power cable education needed I'll give another shout to Shunyata. I have the Delta NR 20 amp for my Simaudo Titan...If your budget is on the lower end try Voodoo Cable Black Magic. I'm actually using this monster (20 amp version) on my Furman Elite 20PFi power conditioner wit... | |
| Favorite cable brand. I have used a few over the last 20 + years including Transparent, Kimber, Shunyata, Voodoo, La Spada...I also just placed an order with Morrow. I have a pair of MA4 XLR IC's and Map3 power cord arriving Friday. Going to try them out and see if the... | |
| Sending a 110 lb amp to the manufacturer for cleaning/calibration. Good idea? How to ship? @jnovak Thanks for responding - you know this thought did actually occur to me as well. Kinda ties in with the "if it ain't broke don't fix it", LOL. Or be careful what you wish for:). However I do have tremendous trust and faith in the folks at S... | |
| Sending a 110 lb amp to the manufacturer for cleaning/calibration. Good idea? How to ship? It is working magnificently and didn't even give something like this a thought until it was suggested from the good folks at Simaudio as I had wanted this amp for over 20 years and now want this to last as long as possible. If I were not within dr... | |
| Sending a 110 lb amp to the manufacturer for cleaning/calibration. Good idea? How to ship? thanks @arcticdeth great advice and that is exactly my thinking. Making it into a nice day trip/adventure with the wife to include breakfast and stops along the way. And thank you for the kind words on the amp. She really is a beauty which is why ... | |
| Typical lifespan for a 5 channel power amp? @gandlshevchuk You are extremely correct, that was great insight actually! Thank you:) I really appreciate you sharing that experience...It certainly helps...The gentleman I bought the Titan from (also a dealer) had the same dilemma almost verbati... | |
| Sending a 110 lb amp to the manufacturer for cleaning/calibration. Good idea? How to ship? Thank you again...Yes, if I do decide (and am leaning in that direction for all the good reasons many of you have offered such as an enjoyable road trip, want this amp to last as long as possible, the thought that its sound could actually improve)... | |
| Typical lifespan for a 5 channel power amp? @perkadin the Contour's are my next step after I win the lottery, LOL! I've never even listened to them and I don't want to because they're outta my league and I love my Evokes so all that will do is mess with my head:)Thanks @erik_squires I have... | |
| Sending a 110 lb amp to the manufacturer for cleaning/calibration. Good idea? How to ship? WOW! First I want to thank all of you for taking the time to offer great advice on both ends of the spectrum. Great arguments both for and against, what to do???? I feel like getting total peace (Piece for all us Maidenheads :) of mind of having t... | |
| Sending a 110 lb amp to the manufacturer for cleaning/calibration. Good idea? How to ship? HILARIOUS!!!! Thanks MC, great way to talk me out of doing this, LOL! Believe me I was trying not to even let this get into my head because as I stated above my back hurts just thinking about it. I remember carrying this in literally 1 step at a t... | |
| Sending a 110 lb amp to the manufacturer for cleaning/calibration. Good idea? How to ship? Hi Folks,GREAT advice - thank you All for taking the time to respond!@jayrossi13 even if Fed Ex (UPS is every bit as bad) offered to come pick it up and ship for free I wouldn't do it, LOL! @oldhvymec great call. I will either go freight and wrap/... | |
| The Absurdity of it All I've seen Iron Maiden 4 times not once with ear protection. Yes I am a complete zipperhead. My 3rd time was @ MSG in 2016 and my ears literally rang for 4 days. I have lost quite a bit of trust in my ears, but it was so worth it, LOL!But I can sti... | |
| Typical lifespan for a 5 channel power amp? I actually reached out to Simaudio and they replied right away. They said since this unit came out in 2001, every single one of them is still "active". They only see about 1 a year for servicing (and he said it's usually because someone shorted a ... |
