| RS Jaco Cord Upgrade ? Ron,I'm really glad that you tried the CH Acoustic X20. It sounds like you like it as much as I do.Chuck | |
| what is my system's weakest link? My thought is your amp. Thiel speakers are known to need high quality, high power/current amps. I may easily be wrong, but I believe that you need something better than what you have now to achieve the best sound out of the CS 1.5 speakers.Chuck | |
| Objective vs. Placebo relating to system changes I think that John ( Jmcgrogan2 ) and others called you out correctly, plus your last sentence validates that fact.You're an engineer, so you should be making a decent salary.

| RS Jaco Cord Upgrade ? Ron,This might be out of your reasonable price requirement, but I'll throw it out there for your thoughts.Most of the reviews for the Dmitri say that the top of their line Running Springs HZ ( High Zoot ) Crown Jewel power cord is the recommended ... | |
| CD player vibration from CD's That's one of the things that the Audio Desk CD lathe does. I do both sides which trues and balances the CD.Chuck | |
| Is a high priced Line Conditioner needed Although I don't know the answer, you bring up an interesting point.I've read that a lot of power conditioners negatively affect a system because of the filtering used.So if that's the case, as you asked, do you need one at all? If you do, what ar... | |
| SR PowerCell 10 SE MK2 or Running Springs Jaco? Then how about giving the man some recommendations?He's probably asking because he's interested in adding a power conditioner.Chuck | |
