Equi=Tech Balanced Power vs. ?
I have never installed a piece of equipment in my system that had a more noticeable positive effect than an Equi=Tech 1.5. P. S. audio units also balance the power in addition to regenerating it. My only complaint with the P.S. units is you have t... 
Krell FBP200C/which tube pre will sound best
I just purchased a pair of 250fpb mono's & I asked about this very issue. My dealer said that the Sonic Frontiers Line 3 I am using would not be a problem for my amps. This dealer sold S.F. gear at one time. If anybody hears differently please... 
Equi=Tech, Components & Benefits of Balanced Power
I also have a 1.5 & I am very happy with what it does. I use it on all my front end gear & my entire home theater including a 65 inch projection T.V. I tried it on my amp & I felt it slowed down the pace of the presentation. I wanted t... 
SACD and DVD-A:why so negative, "guru"?
I should clarify my previous submission. Tower was removing the CD's not purchasing customers. I have equipment capable of playing either format so I would like to see both readily available. Larry W. 
SACD and DVD-A:why so negative, "guru"?
I went to a Tower store the other day. They had set up a seperate section for DVD audio & SACD; it was emptied out. Larry W. 
subwoofer comparision
When it comes to music you are always bettr off with one good sub rather than two average ones. I have to jump on the Rel bandwagon since I have a stadium II. I have tried numerous subs in my system some were good for movies but I always was unhap... 
Help on power conditioner upgrade
Upon further reflection you might want to stick with what you have. You are getting regenerated & balanced power.I have yet to install anything before my amp that I was happy with. The best bang for buck would be to have a dedicated 20amp circ... 
Help on power conditioner upgrade
The Equi=tech would carry everything but you would want a Q version. I have an R version but I think it is a little slow supplying curent during peaks to my amp so I have everything in my A/V system plugged into it except the amp. The Q version is... 
Need advice on what is a good A/C enhancer.
The Equi=Tech balances the power. Instead of having a 120v hot & a neutral, the Equi=Tech runs the hot at a plus 60volts & the neutral is a minus 60volts which significantly lowers the noise floor.In a good system the improvemnt is not sub...

I recently installed an Equi=Tech 1.5R in my system. I cannot remember when if ever I have installed a piece of equipment which made such an immediate & positive improvement.Good digital gear especilly likes the balanced power this power condi... 
Krell KAV-250a: good? vs. Bryston 4B ST at price?
Both feedbacks from Kthomas are deadon. I have a 250A powering a pair of Martin Logan Quest Zs which are a difficult load to say the least & the Krell has no problem with them.My preamp is a Sonic Frontiers Line 3. This combination gives me de... 
Dedicated line vs. power conditioner
I ran 4 cicuts with 10 guage wiring with hospital grade outlets. One 20 amp circut is dedicated soley for my amp.For my stereo system I went with good power cords. On my home theatre setup I am using Chang Lightspeed 6400 20amp which does help. I ... 
Aerosmith SACD
I picked up a copy last week at a Tower records. I am disappointed in the recording quality specifically the bass because it is almost nonexistent.How can you rock without a good thumping bass? 
Eva Cassidy
Whenever I put on an Eva Cassidy cd for someone who never heard of her the response is always the same,"Wow who is that!" I use the first 2 tracks of "Live at Blues Alley" to show off my system. Goose bumps! 
Too snobbish for SACD as it exists?
This is a minefield but I like the commentary submitted. I own a Sony DVP9000ES & think it is a real bargain for the money. After I purchased my Krell unit I remember reading a review that the transport was sourced from Teac. In speakers &...
