| Has anyone tried the Shunyata Diamondback PC? "try before you buy"Worked for me. Trick is to find a dealer willing to work with you. | |
| Upgrade with best price/performance ratio Yes, speaker positioning and appropriate connection to floor - very high on the price/performance list (very low p:p ratio). I also felt replacing all fuses in my amp with HiFi Tuning silver fuses and adding aftermarket PC to my CDP provided big p... | |
| Upgrade with best price/performance ratio Similar story, best price/performance ratio: Blutack on shelf supports to isolate wooden shelves. Second best, powercord for my amp made with parts from Home Depot ($17). Third best, Fusion/Auvio interconnects from Radio Shack ($15-20). Honorable ... | |
| Odyssey Kismet Reference Speakers- Thanks again! | |
| Has anyone tried the Shunyata Diamondback PC? Ack,I cannot dispute your experience, and I am sure you heard what you heard. My experience was different. I did a fairly extensive test of different Shunyata power cables with my CDP played through a Moon and Dynaudio system that was highly resol... | |
| My System....where to start on the upgrade path Catfishbob,You may want to put your amp in your car and drive the 12 hours again to the distributors house to listen to it powering the S-HL5's. Or, just wait until a pair come up used, buy them and try them at your home. My guess is that should y... | |
| My System....where to start on the upgrade path Catfishbob,The P3ESR's are out for your room size. I really like the newer Compact 7's - I have been impressed by their inherent musicality and balance. They may be a bit bass shy in your room, and it is my belief - but not proven out by extensive... | |
| Toddler-Friendly Budget Speakers? I think you are discounting the effect of "guest" toddlers who may not be as well "trained" as your children. I had a stylus destroyed and damaged driver cones from one little "friend" in particular when my kids were little. An ounce of prevention... | |
| My System....where to start on the upgrade path 1. How can different people hear different things from different components listening to the same system in the same room? Perhaps these people have heard some of the gear previously and have a clear idea in their mind's ear what it should sound l... | |
| SS amp - which one ??? For your preferred music, I would check out a used Plinius, McCormack, and definitely ARC if you can find in your price range. The Vincent may also fit the bill nicely. Ideally you would be able to try any of these to see how well they work with y... | |
| Odyssey Kismet Reference Speakers- Stereo5,Two questions:1. How do you like your Odyssey amp now that it has a few hours on it?2. How do your Kismet's compare to the Devore 8's beyond better bass? I am fairly familiar with the Devores.Thanks! | |
| Toddler-Friendly Budget Speakers? I think Mapman has a good suggestion. Most of speaker except very top is covered in solid sloping wood veneer. You should build respect for your toys with your toddler, but come on, stuff happens... | |
| Best Match for Dynaudio Contour S3.4? Have you considered a big used ARC tube amp? I have heard these sound really good with Dynaudio Contour's. Their solid state amps sound pretty good too. | |
| Morrow SP1 or SP2 cable vs Speltz Anti-Cable? Rebbi,Thanks. Will be very interested to hear how you like the Supra cables since I have read great things about them here. | |
| Morrow SP1 or SP2 cable vs Speltz Anti-Cable? Rebbi,Are either Morrow or Speltz even close to 9 gauge? I am having a bit of trouble tracking with this thread. It sounds like the Merlin rep is recommending dryer pigtails!?! Check out Blue Jeans Cable... |
