Probably selling the record collection too! If you’re curious, you can see my system here.if anyone’s interested, you can come ove... | |
| Devialet Premier Original with Wilson Sophia 2 - Anyone Head this combo? I also have a pair of Sophia 2’s. I’m considering the latest Devialet expert pro 220. Any thoughts or advice? | |
| Value of Adding Bridge II to Direct Stream DAC Peter, i have a perfect wave Wave Dac mkII, with Bridge II. I can say without a doubt, the bridge over USB is the Way to go! Before bridge 2 came out, I was using the original bridge. The tests between USB and bridge or no comparison. Healthy incr... | |
| Devialet Expert Long Term Experience? OP - how has the journey proceeded? Did you go for the Devialet? I am considering one myself. | |
| RCA vs Phono cable A Phono cable is generally referring to the cable that will connect the turntable to the phonostage. Often times a turntable will have a hardwired cable, in which case you do not need (and cannot even use) a detachable Phono cable. | |
| Anybody bold enough to try a voltage conversion on your own? George, can you explain why the 50-60 hz change is not a problem? | |
| Anybody bold enough to try a voltage conversion on your own? Thank you imhififan! | |
| Anybody bold enough to try a voltage conversion on your own? Georgehifi,so it seems that the voltage issue is solvable. But what about rhe frequency? Will the units work as the should on 50 hz?mark | |
| Anybody bold enough to try a voltage conversion on your own? georgehifi - i think you are right about the very likely lack of a new internal transformer. Seems like that would be far more expensive of a change.so, where do I begin? Pop off the top and take some photos, and show the community for advice?doe... | |
| Anybody bold enough to try a voltage conversion on your own? Thank you georgehifi, I was hoping this is not rocket science! Perhaps I’ll open the hood and investigate soon...By the way, what is your feeling on using a large capacity step down isolation transformer instead of changing all of the wiring on s... | |
| Anybody bold enough to try a voltage conversion on your own? I love the idea of not spending $1500 on voltage conversions and shipping back and forth. But I am worried that the transformer will not be a good "audiophile" solution. The last thing I want is some noise or distortion in my system! thoughts? | |
| Anybody bold enough to try a voltage conversion on your own? Kosst, Would you happen to have any photos of what it looks like to wire the primaries? Is it simply removing the solder in a wire from one point in moving into a different point and re-solder it? | |
| Anybody bold enough to try a voltage conversion on your own? Mgattmch, is a device like that "audiophile friendly"? I would guess that something like that can introduce noise or constrain dynamics. Is that the case? | |
| Turntable setup in Chicagoland area Call Music Direct. They have really great customer service. If they do not offer the service ( and I am guessing that they do ) they may be able to point you in the right direction. | |
| Best used or new DAC under $3500 Another vote for a PS Audio DAC with Bridge II. I have the older PWD mkII with Bridge II, and I think it is outstanding. The bridge II is a really interesting piece - send data via ethernet and the bridge II card then plays the music. Partner i... |
