| What makes the Bloom around instruments . . . Thanks for all of the responses. It makes sense.Since it appears that it's a product of either my AC, Spectron or both, that's where I'll start to look.It can't be the Wadia S7i since the bloom was there with the Pass but not with the Spectron.Chuck | |
| Best Hobby related purchase of 2010 On the expensive end, it was the CH Acoustic X20 IC's, SC's and PC's. These easily have been the best in my system. They seem to have no sonic signature of their own and work with the same 'no signature' magic on every component I had or auditione... | |

| I found a cheap and immediately noticeable tweek It was mentioned that I might not have made myself completely clear describing where my four recepticles are. I do not have any dedicated lines. I have one normal 15 amp household circuit in my stereo room. There are four recepticles on this line,... | |
| pre and amp ideas 10-12K Budget Chris,To tell you the truth, when I registered on Audiogon in 2004, I thought that Krell was it. Since then, I had Musical Fidelity, Herron, Karan, Burmester, Pass and finally Spectron. I've liked all of these better than my Krell. In the last two... | |
