| If you have a CD Player, you need to do this periodically... I suspect it’s a great way to take peoples money. Like the green CD pens 30 years ago. | |
| If you have a CD Player, you need to do this periodically... I just sprinkle holy water on my CD player. | |
| Room Ceiling Height for 2 channel listening - is taller always better? I built a new house with a custom room. I used online calculator as a guide and did 18 wide 26 long 11 height. I talked to an acoustic company and they recommended 13’ ceiling or higher which I could not make work with the house design. I tapered... | |
| Magico A5, Wilson SabrinaX, or PS Audio FR30? I have Rockports. I recommend at this price level you take some road trips and listen firsthand. Many different technologies here - sealed, ported and passive radiator. So many other differences only your ears can make the right decision. | |
| Better Streaming Option Than PS Audio Directstream DAC Bridge II? I have a Directstream with Bridge 2. When I read somewhere that the bridge was noisy I removed the bridge and hooked my Bryston BDP-2 via USB and it did sound better. If you are using ROON you may want to connect the Nucleus to the Direct Stream v... | |
| Passive vs Active...Again! My sister has active speakers, After about 15 years the amp failed and it can't be repaired. If she had active speakers they would still be working and she could simply buy a new amp. | |

| Frequency response while streaming stops at 15kHz- did I miss something in the fine print? I did the same experiment but used test tones played back from my PC and the response seemed to stop at 15 to 16KHz. I suspect the reason was not my test tones or my system, but a limitation of the iPhone microphone. | |
| Has Nordost forgotton who pays the bills? I think the bigger concern here is to Nordost owners who want to sell their cables. The resale value of Nordost is likely to go down because of this policy. Why should I buy a $10,000 set of cables if its going to be difficult to resell them if ... | |
| Recommendations and thoughts for end game speakers and amps In regards to cables. Tell the dealer you will use your existing cables, then call Iconoclast as they will offer a 30 day money back guarantee. I borrowed the Try cables from a local video dealer I purchased from to do the compare. Turned out to ... | |
| Recommendations and thoughts for end game speakers and amps I have Rockport Cyngus which sound very much like the Avior II except more bass for my big room. I paired them with Boulder 2160 and the sound is great. I compared Nordost Tyr 2 to Iconoclast Silver Pated TPC. The Iconoclast sounded identical to... |
