| REL speakon connection to amp vs speakers I am wondering if there is any audible difference between connecting them to the amp or to the speakers directly and am guessing somebody here has tried it. Honestly I was confused by this question, and because others had chimed in with advice... | |
| Cheapest but good cables…. Signal Cable: USA small biz, Frank is great to deal with. Very good cost/quality/performance ratio. Not sure any standard cable is suitable for under carpet unless designed for that, which Nordost is not. | |
| Speaker cable recommendations I just installed Zafino Nova OCC cables $390 for 2.5m pair - they are the best I've heard in my system thus far, and way better than the Nordost's I have used in the past at double the cost. I also added their Fusion interconnects, really nice. (p... | |
| REL speakon connection to amp vs speakers PS. I know this wasn’t your question but it took me a while to figure this out so FWIW... IMO integrating the subs with the mains works best with the subs on either side of the mains, phase set to 0. Start with the crossover set roughly 5-10 hz ... | |
| REL speakon connection to amp vs speakers I have also have pair of T/9x's and contrary to the above, I use the sub-out connections from my integrated tube amp to the RELs, RCA to RCA (low input not LFE .1) I've done it both ways and prefer using RCA interconnects for stereo. I also have... | |

| New Cartridge or New Preamp I went from an Ortofon 2m Bronze and a cheap Pro-Ject external tube phono-stage with upgraded tubes, to a Hana ML ($1200) and a GoldNote PS 10 with the PSU 10 external linear power supply ($3200 for both) and it really was a massive (and necessary... | |
| Cambridge CXN V2 or Innuos Pulse Mini? @vthokie83 me too, PSU+LPS | |
| Cambridge CXN V2 or Innuos Pulse Mini? @vthokie83 I read your post last night from my phone, and coincidently Alvin emailed me 5 minutes after your post to confirm the kit does fit the current (N130) Node. (I just clicked the link you posted and there are options to select the Node mod... | |
| Cambridge CXN V2 or Innuos Pulse Mini? but what? | |
| Cambridge CXN V2 or Innuos Pulse Mini? thx Peter! | |
| Cambridge CXN V2 or Innuos Pulse Mini? @curiousjim Me too, Black Ice DAC but COAX - Analysis Plus Digital Crystal | |
| Cambridge CXN V2 or Innuos Pulse Mini? @drmuso I’m not familiar with the components you have, so I can’t really judge if the Node is actually the weakest link. An honest statement - but to put in perspective, the Node is 1.5% of the total investment. (I realize cost isn't everythi... | |
| Cambridge CXN V2 or Innuos Pulse Mini? @drmuso I understand your perspective. Check out my virtual system - I think you will agree the Node is the weak link. Should I spend $1200 on a new streamer or an external DAC to enhance my $500 digital investment (not including interconnects) is... | |
| Cambridge CXN V2 or Innuos Pulse Mini? well that's disappointing... |
