| ZYX Airy2-X-SB on Graham 2.2 Larry,Point well taken on room acoustics. Unfortunately, the room has a large RPTV between the speakers to accomodate the family's video needs. I cover the TV with blankets when listening which helps. Not perfect but better than a sharp stick in t... | |
| ZYX Airy2-X-SB on Graham 2.2 Larry,Sounds like I should wait for the UNIverse. Hopefully, it will come with a new listening room?! Then again, I may not be able to afford the UNIverse if I get my listening room. Maybe a Airy2 or Airy3 now is better than a Glider in the new ho... | |
| ZYX Airy2-X-SB on Graham 2.2 Spencer,What's your opinion of the Airy3? I was heading down the path of a Airy2 or Airy3 but Larry's comments about the UNIverse have me in a dilemma. Spend now or save for later (Enjoy now or really enjoy later?).Cheers,Kurt | |
| ZYX Airy2-X-SB on Graham 2.2 Dear Larry (et al),Thanks for the recommendation towards waiting for the Universe. Must be something very special! Still trying to weigh the Airy2 and Airy3 options.Musical tastes run the gamut from 1970's Rock n'roll to Jazz to Classical. Occasio... | |
| ZYX Airy2-X-SB on Graham 2.2 Question to Dougdeacon et al for advice. Moved back into vinyl after a 20+ year hiatus a couple years ago. I am seriously thinking about upgrading my Benz Glider to a new cart (Is the Benz too smooth?). Before going on, I'd like to thank Sirspeedy... | |
| How can power cords make a difference? Dear All,I've certainly read a number of interesting theories on why PCs make a difference. RF/EMI rejection, bigger guage "pipe" to supply electrical power, bandpass filter effects, various sound differences between metal types and purity, mechni... | |
| Seeking Opinions of Acoustic Zen cables Just borrowed the MC2=ZEN digital cable from a local dealer, replacing the HT Cyber-link Copper between my Pioneer DV05 player and Sunfire Theater Grand II. It was like adding a new DAC to the system for both music and HT. Everything bloomed! Bass... | |
| Pioneer DV 05 Mods and Tweaks I recently picked up a used DV-05 that I intend to modify. I found a couple of websites that you might find interesting. Rick Shultz's EVS Tweaked high-end audio (www.tweakaudio.com/index.html), avsforum.com ($8 and $200 DIY tweaks for DVD players... | |
| Cable TV causing system ground problems! I recently solved the problem with a $12 Holland Electronic ground loop isolator from a local A/V shop. Solved the problem. A friend of mine suggested a homemade 75-300-75ohm resister series to do the same thing (see post above). I still kick myse... | |
| Biggest hype-worst tweak I believe that Audience (makers of Auric Illuminator) recommend 1 or 2 drops of JoyTM dishwashing detergent in cool water to remove their Auric Illuminator gel. It should be a good surfactant for removing finger grease and other nasties in any cas... |
