| Upgrade my Sonic Frontiers Line-2, or buy a used solid state Pre? I had SF SFL-1 (my 1st tube preamp), SFL-2, Line 3 and Power 3. With my favorite NOS Philip Holland / Amperex 6922. it's not dry or sterile. I had the Line 3 and Power 3 upgraded to SE+ by PCX. It's an improvement over stock but not worth the ... | |
| Is there Really a difference between a Krell 400xi intergrated amp and the newer Vandgard? dave_b1,550 posts02-11-2016 8:12pmSdcampbell, I had the Hegel home and I found it hard and flat sounding. A bit cold as well!I've had 3 Krell amps, last a FPB600. Familiar with 300i that I find 2D and hard. I have a Hegel H30 and it's light ... | |

| High Fidelity Cables CT-1designed by Rick Schultz Tonight I pop the MC 0.5s back in my system and the hardness and darkness have disappeared. I guess it just needed more breaking in. Now need to get more for the TV. | |
| Power cables pixelriffic4 posts02-19-2016 7:35pmAh the miracle of high end power cables. Somehow six feet of fancy wire can overcome any shortfall created by fifty feet of Romex, and miles of stranded copper from the lowest bidder. According to Caelin Ga... | |
| High Fidelity Cables CT-1designed by Rick Schultz Do you know about how may hours you have on the MCo.5s? Rick from High Fidelity told me they would go dark after a while then open back up better than before. He did not say what the hour range is. Did you find them dark from the start? Plugge... | |
| Synergistic Red Fuse ... I've found that the right way actually sounds SMALLER in scale, but with a proper image size and relationship. When the fuse is wrong. The soundstage sounds oval with a huge hump in the center, making the center image mushroomed out, creating j... | |
| High Fidelity Cables CT-1designed by Rick Schultz After a week with MC 0.5, I find the sound a bit harder and darker. I still enjoy the improvements ... tighter focus, dynamics, life like imaging, lower noise floor ...but overall I prefer the sound without the MC 0.5 in my system.Like everything... | |
| Synergistic Red Fuse ... Maybe lesson learned is Slo-Blo has larger tolerance so safer to roll than a Fast-Blo unless one is willing to roll the dice.Another thought is audiophile fuses is anything not from the manufacturer. A Bussmann is definitely a safer bet than one... | |
| Synergistic Red Fuse ... My REF250 specification is a 7A Slo-Blo but since SR RED doesn't offer that size, so been using a 6.3A Slo-Blo. Now waiting for my 5 SR BLACK from theCableCo. Hmm! | |
| Synergistic Red Fuse ... Pair of Blacks are on the way for my PerfectWave II DAC/pre. You guys are killing me. I hate you. :-)Having never upgraded a fuse from stock, guess for me on this: ought a black sound better than stock, right out of the box? Also, ought ... | |
| High Fidelity Cables CT-1designed by Rick Schultz Rlawry, My sources (pre (4 amp fuse) + dac (3 amp fuse)) combined draw less than 10A. As matter of fact, one HFT CT-1 can powered both in an experiment.I was considering a MC-6 Hemisphere for my amps but will not work with a 10A max. My SS stereo ... | |
| High Fidelity Cables CT-1designed by Rick Schultz have you check out the product page in HFC? just curious why the MC-6 Hemisphere is spec at 10A max? No, just asked Rick. I'll check and if 10A max, not going to work. |
