| Shunyata Hydra Users....Your Opinion please... I bought the Hydra 2 and plug my mono block amps into it. As an experiment I put a Hubell 20 amp IEC on the end of a 20 amp dedicated line and bypassed the Shunyata power cord. In theory it should have sounded better- less connectors and all one c... | |
| Most musical S.S. Amp under 2k used ? I bought 2 Classe DR 8 amps and run them in mono to drive Martin Logan CLS11Z.$2000.00 total for 2 amps.No problems, smooth yet detailed, my power cords cost almost as much as the amps,but I figured I saved on the amps so why not?Best amps yet for... | |
| Dedicated power,long power cords - waste of time? I run 2 dedicated 20 amp lines across my carpeted basement floor from my panel to my equipment. I use 10 guage waterproof, shielded cable bought at Home Depot. I have seen this cable run outdoors at concerts so electrocution is not an issue.You ca... | |

| The best speaker you ever heard? A toss up between Soundlabs the Ultimate one with CAT electronics, and the Sonus Faber Stradivari with Nagra tube equipment.The rooms of the owners were different as was all associated gear but both were systems with first rate sound.It would be h... | |

| Quad Listener Contemplating Horns Find yourself another pair of 57's and stack them. Wire them in series parallel and forget about it. | |
| Nuforce Positive Feedback have given a"positive" review of the improved Ref9,now the 9.02.It seems as if there was something not quite right with the original version, so I guess my ears are still working. | |
| Restoration of Quads Vs Newer Models I used a 1961 Bell integrated tube amp that put out 20 watts.It had 16 ohm taps and I wired the stacked Quads in series /parrallel and kept the impedence at 16 ohms.There was no need to turn the volume past 10 o'clock to fill a 34x26x8 room.Before... | |
| Myth: low-power high-efficiency Sonus Faber Stradivari and Nagra 845 is a fine match that I am fortunate to hear at the home of a friend of mine.No lack of dynamics, bass depth that goes thru the floor, and great detail even at low listening levels. Need I mention that there is ... | |
| Amp to power Model 2 Vandersteen speakers In the mid 1980's I used 4 Meitner mono block amps on a pair of Vandersteen 2 .Best bass I had ever heard from Vandies. | |
| A buzz in my speakers-Ideas??? The Bryston site lists the Torus line conditioner as being the only conditioner they have found that won't limit the power to their amps.They used to promote plugging their power amps directly into a wall outlet | |
| Problem with AC and how to solve it Halogen pot lights were the cause of buzzing in my system. | |
| Restoration of Quads Vs Newer Models I have owned a stacked pair of 57's and sold them after a couple of years of trouble free listening,but they were in need of a rebuild and that would be around $4000.00 or more.I owned Quad 63 on Arcici stands with 2 separate 12 inch powered subs ... | |
| Has anyone ever stacked Martin Logan CLS panels I have a Depth sub woofer and I have the second pair of CLS in my home theatre.When I had stacked ESL 57 for a couple of years I liked the improvement in overall sound the extra made. I am not looking for more bass, just more of what a single CLS ... |
