Audio Points between monitor and stand?
It will be interesting to see how this turns out for you.If the speaker is heavy and the stand is heavy, you'd think that having them bolted together would just be creating one heavy and solid speaker. Then it would seem like just having spikes on... 
What is my weak est link...? Suggestions please.
I guess you have to decide if you want to get into the higher end and, if you do, how you want to get there.What I was trying to say in my earlier post was that you don't know how good or lacking your speakers are until you get an amp that will gr... 
Aq sky vs stealth indra
I agree 100% with John about the Indra. I didn't say anything before though because I've never heard the Sky.Chuck 
Aq sky vs stealth indra
Why don't you call John Pharo at The Cable Company and ask him to send you both from their lending library so that you can audition them in your system?Chuck 
Audio Points between monitor and stand?
I just reread your post and see that the speakers are bolted to the stands.One possibility is like I did with my Silver Signatures, let the bolts hold the speakers in place while the points and coupling discs do the coupling.The other might be to ... 
Audio Points between monitor and stand?
Try it, what have you got to lose? Just remember that if the speakers aren't directly coupled to the stands, you have two choices. First, if you use the coupling discs to protect the stand, will the speaker walk on the stand, or is the speaker's m... 
My PS Audio Power Plant died
It's probably not a lemon since it's been working fine for two years.It was working before the power outage, but not after. Have you checked the fuse? Maybe there was a power surge when the power was turned back on.Chuck 
How to choose the kind of cables for your system?
Clarrie,You're in Singapore if I'm not mistaken, so I don't know if The Cable Company will be able to assist you with their lending library of cables.You've said that you have a Pass X250.5 amp and are asking about good preamps in your other posts... 
Burning in a new DAC
They also say that hard rock and electronic music is good for breaking in components and cables. 
What is my weak est link...? Suggestions please.
I remember back when Adcom first came out. I had Adcom's top of the line 555 amps running in mono with their top of the line preamp. The speakers were Definitive Technology BP-20's, their top of the line at that time.I bought a Krell KRC-3 preamp ... 
How to choose the kind of cables for your system?
If you're an audiophile, the answer is: how much do you feel comfortable spending on cables?If a cable costs $2,000.00, $3,000.00 or more, and it makes a difference that you really like over a $500.00 or $1,000.00 cable, is it worth it to you to b... 
I've been gifted a pair of Thiel CS2s
Mike,I agree with Newbee. I wanted the 2.4's but the specs and the dealers said that you need to be 8'-10' away from them so that the drivers will be able to integrate properly to your ears.Your room is too small for these or Magnepan 1.7 or 3.7.C... 
WA-Quantum GmbH's Quantum Chips
For Pete's sake, don't cut the chip! The secret of the chip came to me in a dream last night.Under the 'W' is a micro-communication device. WA-Quantum has found a backdoor in and the chip is constantly calling and receiving this free of charge: ht... 
Fuses that matter.
The AMR Gold fuse has gold plated copper end caps and a silver alloy as the filament. I don't know why they call it 'Gold fuse'.
