| Speaker Cables and Carpet To completely hide my cable, I removed the carpet, ran a 3/8” channel across the plywood flooring with my router, tucked the SC into the channel and reinstalled the carpet. Sounds great and cables have disappeared. | |
| Upgrade from Oppo Sonica DAC I have the Modwright Oppo Sonica. It’s great. I like better than my PS Audio DS DAC. Send it to Dan. | |
| New Linear Tube Audio MicroZOTL Preamplifer @pugilist ,The ZOTL pre has a very good headphone amp. I have never heard David Bernings Pre One but have heard it is outstanding. There must be someone out there that’s heard both. Maybe only David Berning? | |
| NEW Cerious Technologies Upgrade - Graphene Matrix Cables @tubes444 I have stopped searching for cables. I’m very satisfied with the quality of the Matrix line of cables. I have been concentrating on other areas of my system as a result. The Matrix IC’s had a big impact in my setup but you better ask Bob... | |
| Tekton Double Impacts @delta77, I have the Double Impact SE with Rosso Folgore semi-gloss. You’re going to love them. I no longer have my ZMA and CSP3 but I imagine they will sound great. My setup is on my systems page (Lance’s HT/2 Channel)Lance | |

| Harbeth Super HL5 Plus speakers & integrated amp pairing recommendations +1 for the Vinnie Rossi LIO with the HL5+. I heard this combo at the Newport show a few years ago and it’s burned into memory. | |

| Full range tower speakers with bass under $10k As @m-db said”JL Audio states that using the E-Series high level (speaker) inputs for receivers and integrated amplifiers without line level outputs is not the desirable method”I know JL says this but I have very good results using the high level ... | |
| Berning ZH270 Upgrades @brettmcee yes, David’s a very nice guy. Even though we’ve become friends he still takes a week to reply to an email from me. He’s is sort of semi retired especially since Mark has really kicked in their production.Mark is also a good guy to talk ... | |
| Berning ZH270 Upgrades @brettmceeJust email David Berning. He is the only one other than maybe Mark Schneider of LTA that can work on these amps. Berning’s designs are extremely complicated and I would trust no one else to work on them. http://davidberning.comThe other ... | |
| Pass - Auralic - TAD System - Thoughts / Changes ? @truboneys In that size room definitely don’t toe them in. Try a 7’ equilateral triangle. You will only be able to get them a couple of feet off of the front wall.I also have better power late at night and it makes a difference in sound quality bu... | |
| Pass - Auralic - TAD System - Thoughts / Changes ? @truboneysI don’t toe in the ME-1’s at all. They can be very bright with those beryllium tweeters pointed at you. They’re in my living room at the moment so one speaker is close to the wall and the other far. A terrible room for sound but temporar... | |
| Pass - Auralic - TAD System - Thoughts / Changes ? I have the TAD ME1 speakers and love them. I’m guessing the Pass Labs gear sounds great and has good synergy. These speakers seem to like SS better than tubes so far.Since this a cable forum may I suggest you try the Cerious Technologies Cables. I... | |
