| Upgrading Fuses Very interesting different takes on the fuse uograde advice given by a real manufacturer.That it has been regarded as a ploy to yet again rob the poor unsuspecting audiophile of his money is a sad statement about how so many folks who claim to be ... | |
| Jumper Question Check out Nordost jumpers and the way they suggest to wire up .I tried every way with my Ref 3A Grand Veena's and this approach worked.Then I went out and ordered a set of the Nordost jumpers and Heimdall speaker wires.Best combo yet with these sp... | |
| Upgrading Fuses Carol 10/3 cables work quite well as power cord wire, but it's bulky.I've used FIM, Shunyata, and many Hubbel receptacles, anything is better than what comes with the house, but some are better than others,if your pocket book rules the day, then l... | |
| Upgrading Fuses Happy listening is indeed the end result ,and the intended one at that.Why else bother with the expense of upgrades? | |
| Upgrading Fuses I am firmly in the camp that upgraded power cords, whether DIY or store bought name brand and upgrades to the power delivery are crucial if not mandatory today.Wallplugging your gear , or going straight into the wall which was the norm back when I... | |
| Upgrading Fuses I am lucky, I only had single fuse per component to change, but I would tend to agree that the fuse nearest the power cord would be the place to start, and perhaps that's as far as you need to go if you are pleased with the results.Personally spen... | |
| Upgrading Fuses I make no claims that "you" ,you know who you are,can hear the differences that a DIY or HiFi fuse can make.I only claim that I can hear the improved performance of the music.What I DO claim, is complete acceptance of the claims of Peter Aczel ,go... | |
| Upgrading Fuses Ok guys,back to your corners.For the curious "I want the measurements to prove it types" I would ask that they just use a simple chunk of copper wire,such as Romex, and strip the ends to make them bare.Then insert said copper fuse replacements in ... | |
| Upgrading Fuses Well forty bucks isn't outrageous money to spend even if your gear isn't expensive.The DecWare amp sells for about one thousand dollars, brand new and it's one of the best amps I've ever owned.All 2 watts of this amp drives my Ref 3A Grand Veenas ... | |
| Upgrading Fuses Years ago Peter Aczel suggested that speaker protection fuses ruined the sound anywhere in the chain, be it in the speakers or in the amp.Years ago I tried removing the speaker fuses and ever since have bypassed them with copper wire.I never had a... | |
| Cables/Power Cords Shoot Out Why not bulid some for yourself, and then try different connectors and get a take on how many variables there can be just in DIY power cords?Speaker wires are another cheap way to compare the differences in sound that different wire configurations... | |
| interconnect upgrade Question I pair up the Manley Steelhead to the EL84 powered DecWare ZenSelect amp and it's very nice when wired up with Nordost Heimdall IC and speaker wires.Since you have some ZU wires already, why not Zu IC's? | |
| why does NBC sound so bad? are networks different Where I live,(closer to Buffalo NY, than Toronto)I have found that whether I run satellite or free air, that some programs just seem less clear than others.Most dramas seem to have the poorest dialog resoulution.The type of programming that I don'... | |
| In the red; insufficient power The problem is with your local electric company.They will be hesitant to do anything if you tell them the low power is affecting the sound of your stereo.They will be more apt to respond if you tell them that the low voltage could possibly destroy... | |
| Anyone tried Quantum Resonant Technology? I am also curious about the QV2,because the price isn't too outlandish.But I would have to audition one or two.Since it plugs into the empty side of a duplex, it sounds like the old take on wiring up a cap or two to the receptacle.Or like the old ... |
