| Solid state amplifiers and sound stage, especially front to back "depth" I’m experiencing a wide and deep soundstage using an Atma-sphere 30W amp with an Audio Note linestage. The 3D image is often holographic. Don’t dismiss the effect a preamp contributes to deep imaging.I also have absorbion panels on the side walls ... | |
| Samsung flat screen TV’s I think we need to be more specific. I read on a forum that it's the Samsung LED screens that go black. Not sure about LCD. | |
| Regarding Quoting someone on the forums @jay73, I get notified often, but not every time. This time it worked for me but not for you. | |
| Turntable Isolation Way back when your turntable was built, isolation was not much of a consideration as it is today and there are better materials than rubber. I would find a better footer and place directly under the base of the TT.Nobsound is a very popular soluti... | |
| Underwood HiFi Cables I received a Gold power cord with an EquiCore purchase. I compared it with a couple of my very expensive name brand PCs and it's very good quality.I suspect Walter hired a manufacturer (possibly in China due to the low price) to produce cables for... | |
| Regarding Quoting someone on the forums The @ function seems to work inconsistently. It may link to a member in one thread, but not in another. | |

| Ground Wire NO effect upon sound quality - contrary to what some here will soon claim!Another condescending comment. You really have a chip on your shoulder. | |
| Dust I cover components with exposed tubes. I use a large size polishing cloth, the type for cleaning cars or motorcycles. | |
| 6922 recommendations for ARC PH7 Upscale sells tubes of the highest quality. My go to sellers are Brent Jessee and Andy at Vintage Tube Services. They sell high grade tubes and offer a return policy, which is great for a tube roller such as myself. | |
| 6922 recommendations for ARC PH7 Amperex tubes manufactured in the Heerlen plant were not all the same. The PQ series were different than the Bugle Boys as were the rare pinched waist tubes.From Brent Jessee:E88CC / 6922 Amperex Holland made white PQ type, white label gold pins.T... | |
| I can't be the only Cary Audio DMS-600 user experiencing this problem streaming Qobuz ... +1 @jond . No issues here either. I was having dropouts and the Qobuz stream pausing when I first signed up (one year ago). Turns out it was a problem with Bluesound. As @cleeds advised, there are many links in the chain. | |
| Another Node2i Question Google the brand and model number of the device that powers your wifi to find out the bandwidth.I Googled my router # when I was having dropouts and discovered it was only 2.4GHz.So, I upgraded to a new model. | |
| Another Node2i Question Is your service 50 mbps Total? If so, then the number of devices being used comes into play. |
