| Walker Audio Extreme SST Thank you very much Rushton for the Canola tip.My findings are the same as yours. | |
| Why do designers/manufacturers...? I don't see as much advertising as I used to for techies who mod gear.Every component is made to a price point.Use expensive parts it has to be sold for more.I can't remember exactly, but way back TAS stated something about upgraded parts that cos... | |
| Stand out phono stages It's been some time,but I added a Lightspeed Attenuator and now run the Manley steelhead in fixed mode and just as a phono stage.Much better, than running it in variable out into the amps.However doing so eliminates operating it in mono.The phono ... | |
| Considering Beveridge, your opinion please. Many years ago I heard a pair of the large Beveridge tower stats driven with a modest HK Citation 11 tube amp that my friend sold to the fellow with the Beveridges.At that time I had only heard Acoustat 3's,so my experience with stats was still li... | |
| Soundlab speakers with sub woofers? I heard a pair of Soundlab Ultimate 1's driven by a pair of CAT mono block amps in a fairly large room of an audio friend.Absolutely no need for one or more subs.I have owned several other stats, and even tried the ML Depth sub with CLS11z when I ... | |
| Electrostatic Speakers I've been a stat fan since the late 70's when I heard the original Acoustat3 with the provided servo tube amps.Later I bought the medallion 3 panel versions and used a CJ M75A-1 amp.Sold them, moved on to cones, had several good pairs but whenever... | |
| Walker Audio Extreme SST "after time the sound disintegrates" so I ask, after how much time?I've just spent quite a few months"clean",and just reapplied ESST to a couple of IC"s at the component end,not the RCA pin.I would have to say that "clean" compared to ESST,the cle... | |
| Walker Audio Extreme SST I've found that the ESST does work.For me things sound more focused and full.My problem is that I still have some left in the jar, but over the last few years I've used up my spare liquid re-fill bottle.I like to clean and apply the ESST twice a y... | |
| Which main power cord? Something as simple as plugging a component into the wall shouldn't be much of a chore should it?Any working power cord will do the job.But, some power cords do the job better than others, and only those who have done the grunt work can attest to ... | |
| Got big amp-help with 20A line and receptacle I have three dedicated 20 amp lines using #10 Romex for my current system.I went back to one line terminated in a Furutech GTX receptacle for the power amps.The second line is terminated in a Shunyata RPZ outlet and that powers all the front end, ... | |
| Lightspeed Attenuator - Best Preamp Ever? I am enjoying the recent discourse and thought I'd add something.Years ago I had a very decent system,Acoustat model 3 with medallion transformer,Conrad Johnson MV75A-1 and Conrad Premier two pre.Cd wasn't around yet, so I listened to an Oracle TT... | |
| What most important in the sound of your cables? Clarity.I just upgraded the wires in my interconnects from my source to volume control.As impressed as I was by upgrading the RCA to Furutech 102R, upgrading to their Alpha OCC wires has really done the trick.The improvement in detail is very enjo... | |
| The Fine Art of Doing Nothing By Roger Skoff I wish I could find something that does nothing to the sound.Then I could join the "it's all about the music" crowd.Everything I have done has done something to the sound of music "in my room".Sometimes just moving the speakers a bit this way or t... | |
| Copper Sleeve over IEC I agree Sabai-it's an experiment that costs almost nothing to try.Whether it works or not for everyone is not the point.It's whether you like the effect or you don't in your set up.Never trying it and saying it won't work proves nothing to yoursel... | |
| Lightspeed Attenuator - Best Preamp Ever? Thanks George . |
