| Upgrading I would start off with power cords, then Speaker and IC’s. +1, @ghdprentice ~ listing your components would be helpful! | |
| What say you binding posts or direct wire? “I get better-sounding results just by using quality speaker cable wired directly into my networks with the same cable type after to transducer. ” This sounds like a case of, 1) Cheap binding posts with poor metallurgy or 2) I have tweaked ever... | |
| Which sounds better: I2S or Coax. The devil is in the details (implementation). I2S does not have standard protocol established between manufacturers so handshake is an issue unless you’re using the two components from same manufacturer. Case in point, AQUA HiFi and Rockna, one us... | |
| Zavfino @juanmanuelfangioii aside from nice packaging, these cables are built to very high standards when you consider metallurgy and aesthetics! Many others are using the PCOCC but I’ve not come across any other cable brand that offers such great value... | |

| Record Seam Splits Any record I buy and store gets MoFi master sleeve treatment soon after they go through my RCM. The paper sleeves are non-starter for me and they get tossed to a separate storage bin. | |
| Connecting dual subs with speakon connectors @jayctoy Yes, one sub connected to the left and second sub connected to right outputs (binding post) of the amp to each sub’s high level input via speakon connector. | |
| Connecting dual subs with speakon connectors “Just twist the same colors (from both subs) together and connect as the manual describes (for a single sub).” NO!!!🤦♂️ The correct way to connect two subs with high level input would be what @noromance said, if you find the gain is too high th... | |
| MM, MC, or MI cartridge @rvpiano Sounds like you need a 2nd tonearm and cart for orchestral recordings :-) | |
| Basic switch....should I upgrade? @wsrrsw Thank you for the info. Like you, I also prefer LAN cables over fiber. The fiber sounded ‘bland’ in my system. | |
| Basic switch....should I upgrade? @wsrrsw Which model did you go with from Ubiquiti? | |
| MM, MC, or MI cartridge @rvpiano Glad to hear you’re enjoying your new cart. I can’t praise enough about its gorgeous presentation for not whole lot of money. | |
| Phono Stage Gain - how does it impact sound? “I’m considering a DAC upgrade now (currently using Benchmark DAC 3 HGC) to get that same type of relaxed and vibrant presentation. ” @audphile1 Looks like Denafrips Pontus II back on the table, maybe a tube DAC from MHDT or Border Patrol :-) |
