| PURON RESOLVE creates new options for better sound @audioman58 Where are these L I asked yesterday and the response was they are not even out yet. how dare they…off with their heads | |
| PURON RESOLVE creates new options for better sound @hilde45 That's why the old SNL skit about floorwax/dessert topping is funny. Yes. SNL back in the good old days. | |
| PURON RESOLVE creates new options for better sound @hilde45 I think the OP’s post was at worst over-hyped, or at best over-enthusiastic. However some of the responses are no different from the cable naysayers that have never tried the cable they condemn. There is nothing wrong with a healthy dos... | |
| PURON RESOLVE creates new options for better sound I wonder how many of the naysayers have tried the plug-in Puron? A no-questions-asked return policy is hardly sleezeball, and having dealt with Mark (4 transactions), if he says the return rate is less than 1%, it is. | |
| Zavfino and Neotech OCC Interconnect One thing I would note about Zavfino is they sell direct at low margins, so without the massive distributor/dealer mark-ups they do represent very good value for the money. Like any brand they get better as you move up the line. Their Fusion int... | |
| Which turntable? Pro-Ject or VPI? Having stupidly owned a Project RPM 10 Carbon, I can vouch for the shoddy build quality. The tone arm wasn’t much better than the $400 Project Debut TT that proceeded it, including the same anti skating weight dangling from a bit of fishing line. | |
| Raven Osprey 3.1 vs Leben cs600 No experience with the Leben, but having owned the Osprey I can understand your brothers enthusiasm. I regret selling mine. | |
| Aurender Model Choices Cool. As always, everything is room, system and music preference dependent. In my case I have a large open-plan space to fill (no dedicated listening room) so the bigger RELs worked really well for me with the small Harbeth's. | |
| Aurender Model Choices ...or, try the N150 and add a couple of RELs. In a side by side comparison in my home, my 30.2XDs with 2 REL T/9x's stood up very well against my 40.3's on their own. | |
| Turntable Cartridge upgrade question. PS. I have a Black Ice DAC which I'm very happy with, no experience with their phono stages but I'd be tempted to try one if I were you, especially with their 45 day return policy and the direct to consumer model usually means more bang for the bu... | |
| Turntable Cartridge upgrade question. Another vote for the Hana ML I think it is a lot of cart for the money. I've moved on from the Hana (sold it for $700 in a couple of days after 18 mths use) but what has remained constant is the GoldNote PS-10 and PSU-10. I'm using the balanced o... | |
| Signal tube versus power tube, sound impact? Expensive? Maybe, but I’m some cases how would you compare as he likely has inventory that no one else has? I have returned (exchanged) 1 set with no issues. The way I look at it is value for money: good advice, no concerns about fakes or items ... | |
| Signal tube versus power tube, sound impact? Lot's of good suggestions here, although overall maybe a bit confusing/overwhelming (no surprise). Personally I've had good outcomes with the front (small) then back (power) strategy, other than one KT150 based amp as there are no other options b... | |
| Seeking Opinions on Nordost Cables Good question @spenav. 2 posts and 1 reply in 13 months. Don't hold your breath. | |
| Yes, cables do make a difference -- regardless of price... crozbo, this is not a PSA. You chose to sacrifice your annual post on the cable altar and start yet another entirely predictable, contentious and worthless argument. |
