| Fuses that matter. Still no reply from Avatar(AMR), so the Supreme fuses went back in.I had forgotten what they contributed to my enjoyment.Took the WA chips off the stock fuses and re-applied to the Supremes.Don't do this too many times,less sticky each time you re... | |
| Power Cords - Just Say Yes If someone states something like a fuse or power cord makes an improvement, it always sparks controversy.Happens everytime.Same old arguments, same rehash from both sides, the pros and cons.The only difference is that those folks who make claims t... | |
| Power Cords - Just Say Yes But you don't need to spend the big bucks to make an improvement.Everyone goes into sticker shock, and gives up too soon.If you can't afford the pricey stuff,you most certainly can afford a few bucks and DIY.For the cost of a couple of good connec... | |
| Power Cords - Just Say Yes I just did that.I changed the old IEC on my Acoustat tube servo amps for the top Furutech ones.Not an easy job, some widening of the opening and some innovative(glue/sealant)mounting of the Furutech iec, but well worth the cost and effort.Everytim... | |
| Power Cords - Just Say Yes Yes conventional thinking would make an upgraded power cord for a Rega seem like an extreme exercise.To some even futile.But only when you experience it does it make sense.I tried several different power cords on that table and the SME and got the... | |
| Power Cords - Just Say Yes An upgraded power cord can make "less of a difference"?In my experience and in every system I've heard one used,there was always a difference for the positive.There will always be a difference, how can there not?Every power cord , stock, DIY or ex... | |
| Power Cords - Just Say Yes I would have to disagree with Rx8man.I've upgraded the power cords on the power supplies of a Rega P9 and an SME 10 and heard the improvement the upgrade power cords made.I don't think either power supply is underbuilt, but certainly isn't as dema... | |
| Fuses that matter. Avatar is the AMR North American distributor that I contacted.Still no reply.I have a few friends who are interested, so I am looking at a dozen or more fuses.Perhaps they've taken the jet for a Christmas ride.Does anyone know what dealerships the... | |
| Fuses that matter. I've tried to contact the North American distributor for AMR to purchase some fuses,as I can't find a AMR dealer in Canada.So far no response.Krell man, what's your source?Thanks. | |
| Power Cords - Just Say Yes My first "upgraded" power cords were homebrew.I had a pair of Quad 63.The power cords that came stock with the speakers were very thin wire,thinner than lampcord.I used some solid core romex house wiring and soldered it to a cheap IEC, for the oth... | |
| Power Cords - Just Say Yes I'd like to add the following.Cost can be a factor when considering power cords, but for just a little cash, anyone can upgrade a stock power cord by replacing the cheap molded rubber ends with decent entry level Furutechs.About 90 bucks.Is that g... | |
| Power Cords - Just Say Yes Yes yes.I use all Shunyata Annaconda power cords,except on my SME10, which is a DIY with the upper tier Furutech power wire and connectors.When talking power cords,it's not just the wire.The sound really takes off when you use the better connector... | |
| Reference 3A Grand Veena, can they rock? Until March of this year I was very pleased with my Grand Veena speakers.I have since moved on, but not because I disliked the Grand Veenas.THey were a very pleasing and detailed speaker.Given the right amplifier and they gave back very deep and p... | |
| Is there really a need for panel speakers in 2012 There's no need ,just choice.I've had numerous Quads,ML,s and back to Acoustats again,although this time with the Acoustat tube servo amps,the only way IMHOP.I've also had numerous cone speakers,from LS3/5A, to Mirage M3si,JBL L65,Meadowlark Heron... | |
| Mitch Cotter MK2 MC stepup imepdance chart This may not help, but when I used a Fidelity Research mc, the Cotter had P strapping to match this cartridge.You could compare the two cartridge specs. |
