| Warm sounding power cord for for CD player to suppress digital glare on vocals. Harry Pierson had an interesting observation years ago. He said that if you really wanted to enjoy digital, stop listening to your records. YEARS ago ... 1970's? LOL!!! | |
| Synergistic Red Fuse ... From my experience, replacing the builder grade with Maestro outlets (audiophile grade) was the best ROI. The improvements far exceeded changing fuses. Last summer I replaced the Maestro outlets with Furutech's GTX-D R and improvements ... | |
| Synergistic Red Fuse ... Since SR RED doesn't offer exact size for my REF250, I've been using Isoclean. It well exceeded my expectations but the audiophile in me had to order RED to compare. Well after 6 hours, they sound very similar. Probably RED is a bit more open... | |
| Amp Stand Cone Feet I have Herbies titanium Giant Cone/Spike Decoupling Gliders installed under the TAD Evolution One's for 4 days now and VERY VERY happy with the results. Whatever smearing are removed from floor resonance. Steve is a good guy to deal with. | |
| Synergistic Red Fuse ... Got this from another site:Interesting observation relayed from Warren Gehl about fuses in ARC gear in this month's letter section of Audio Beat | |
| Bass is not enough !!! Speaker problem? Speaker cable? Power Amp? PC of Power Amp? How far is the speaker from the front wall? Moving them closer might help the bass. | |
| Footers under big heavy speakers (Stillpoints Ultra 5, Sistrum rack, Finite Elements,..?) Good work knghifi, these Titanium Cone/Spike Decoupling Glider will be the way to go if you have a suspended floor and you still want to use your speaker spikes. Some very good feedback from purchasers with suspended floors.http://herbiesaudio... | |
| Synergistic Red Fuse ... Knghifi, Try the AH in stead of the Isoclean, you will thank me for that. A friend did and prefer HiFi-Tuning Supreme. | |
| Footers under big heavy speakers (Stillpoints Ultra 5, Sistrum rack, Finite Elements,..?) These could be good to de-couple your beasts from that wooden sound board of a floor."Giant Fat Glider" or if you wish to still use your spikes. "Giant Cone/Spike Decoupling Glider"There are many to look at.http://herbiesaudiolab.net/spkrfeet.ht... | |
| Dan D'Agostino Is Making 'Big Iron' Again - 800 wpc Monoblocks Krell was my Christening to high end. Had 3 Krell amps and was a BLAST. My motto is also never too much power. Once drove Avantgarde Uno with FPB 600 and surprisingly very good. Happy the MAN is back building more refined products. Fortu... | |
| Synergistic Red Fuse ... I found fuse direction was very noticeable in my VAC SigmMKIIa pre. In wrong direction, sounds out of phase with no weight, bass, rounded ... Compared notes with several VAC owners, same results and ultimately we confirmed with Kevin Hayes. N... | |
| Outrageous used pricing on older McIntosh IMO, it's not related to current offering high prices but buyers just prefer the old sound.I had several old MIT shotgun ICs that's soft and rolled off compare to latest. Sitting in a closet, didn't think a market for them and considered disposin... | |
| Outrageous used pricing on older McIntosh Am I the only one to notice that pricing on older McIntosh gear is bordering on the ridiculous lately? In the last few months, sellers with amps and preamps that are from the 70's, 80's, and 90's are asking within a few hundred dollars of the or... | |
| Any comments on Synergistic Research Atmosphere David, what worked best for you, chassis or signal ground? | |
| Power cords at ridiculous prices? melbguy11,175 posts12-25-2015 10:10pmI think expenditure on power cables should be relative to your equipment. I don’t subscribe to the view some audiophiles hold that cables should be elevated to the status of components (with commensurate expend... |
