Audiophile Grade Wall Receptacle
I tried a few different outlets in my old PS Audio P600 and then tried them in the wall as well.  My P600 came with the orange hospital grade outlets.  Originally, I bought an Oyaide SWO-GX and an R1.  The gold plated GX was marginally better than... 
XLR question for bass
Ah, I re-read and yes, there are plenty of interconnects that can tighten up the bass range.  I have no experience with your interconnects but I have found that gold and some copper can sound loose or excessive.  I'm using mostly silver wire in my... 
XLR question for bass
So, is your question about whether other balanced interconnects can improve your bass quality?   And what are you hearing that you don't like?  What improvement(s) are you seeking in the bass range?  
Do good power cords have to be stiff?
I've gone mostly to DIY power cords which are quite unwieldy but, back in the day, I found the offerings from Wolff and 6Sons Audio to be both very good and quite flexible.  6Sons Audio Golden Eagle is the best power cord I've heard.  Neither come... 
Biamp question
I have a pair of custom speakers that are very similar in design to the Legacy Focus using Eton drivers on top and Peerless 1259 12" woofers.  The Peerless are a bit less efficient so bi-amping is pretty much a necessity.  I've used the internal c... 
Little Dot D300----anyone heard these monoblock amps
Thanks russ69 but I'm looking for something on the cheap.  My main amp currently is the Red Dragon S500 so I'm definitely on the Class D bandwagon.  It would be nice though to find a decent (cheap) amp for another system or to power the woofers in... 
Class D recommendations for woofers in biamp set-up---size matters
Hello Douglas,     Thanks for the recommendation.  I've been a follower of yours for quite some time having purchased both the bridged Pathos Classic MK III and the Cambridge 840W.  Both were quite good.  The Legacy looks very interesting but the ... 
Class D recommendations for woofers in biamp set-up---size matters
Class D (amps) to power the woofers only--thanks 
Need decent mini-tuner in silver better than Cyrus FM X
Haven't made any attempt to integrate the stereo with the computer.  Yep, must be old school like that and so yes, fuzztone, I am stuck in the 20th century.  What of it? 
Power cord choice?
You could keep the Polestar and simply upgrade the plugs.  I checked another post from you and it looks like those power cords use the Oyaide 029.  Going to the 046 or 004 should increase detail and improve the soundstaging.  I think the 004 is th... 
Purchase from Canada
I have bought from Canada on several occasions from interconnects to a Consonance Droplet 5.0 cdp at about 60 lbs to a pair of Xindak monoblocks at about 50 lbs each.  I was hit with customs on the interconnects only and that was through UPS.  Whe... 
warmest speaker cables you've heard?
I've had the Kimber and wouldn't call it warm.  I played around with various wire doing the DIY thing briefly and came across Polar Wire Products (www.polarwire.com).  I was told a pricey power cord used their copper wire in a doubled up configura... 
How does the Equi=Core MK II version compare to the original 1200 or 1800
thanks lowrider57---I'm mostly considering the new Equi=Core 1000 based on physical size.  Still, I like to purchase used when possible to save $$$   Thanks for the info 
What used amp should I pair with my newly acquired Monitor Audio GR60's?
I had a pair of Emotiva XPA 1 gen II a while back very briefly.  I wanted the power for a pair of newly acquired BG Corp Radio 520 loudspeakers as I only had low powered tube amps at the time.  I could get moderate volume from a 45 watt push/pull ... 
Is D for Dry? Class D...
I posted back at the beginning of February asking about higher powered options to replace my SET amp (JAS Array 2.1), inquiring about Class D in particular.  There were some interesting options, most prohibitively expensive.  I eventually settled ...
