| Isolation Cones vs Cheap Cables I have "Sound Anchors" speaker stands under my Thiel CS3.6 speakers. These come pre-drilled on the underside for either 3 spikes or 4 spikes. I use 3 spikes. | |
| Linn LP12 factory power supply upgrade or 3rd party? Need to do 45’s. Thanks for the reply. Do you know the cost of the Lingo 4? | |
| About to purchase Bryston BP-2MM moving magnet phono stage for Sondek LP-12 Thanks for the replies. I’ll most likely order the BP-2MM in the next month. I may have to be the one to write a review, it seems to be just another phono stages in a crowded market. I could buy another phono stage at around this price point but I... | |
| About to purchase Bryston BP-2MM moving magnet phono stage for Sondek LP-12 Thanks a bunch for your reply. I listened to the 2.5b cubed amp (that Gary Dayton demoed in my home) and it was more coherent than my 4b squared amp. So that is encouraging that you are able to get good results with your .5 preamp where I assume y... | |

| Bryston BP-26 VS 17Cubed Thanks for the review and comparison. I am a BP 26 owner and I can attest that it has a very detailed sound! You are using the external power supply, yes? I have not auditioned the 17 at all. I love that the BP 26 has such heavy duty connectors/so... | |
| New Old Thiel CS6 Speakers--Too Harsh I think I can be of some assistance here. I have Thiel CS 3.6's and experienced both of the issues that you described, 1) the harshness and 2) the strange "out of phase" bass quality. I would first of all say that while I have not listened to the ... | |
| Portable DAC compatible w/ iPhone or iPod Thanks Mingles - HRT is the name of the company I'm thinking of. I'll check their website for current models and features. The Nuforce Icon iDo seems to be the right product for what I'm needing it to do. The only thing better would be a battery p... | |
| Portable DAC compatible w/ iPhone or iPod Elevick - I appreciate your expertise as a spin instructor. I'm thinking that having an actual small high quality DAC in the spin class that the instructor can plug his phone into is going to produce noticeably superior sound even with low quality... | |
| Portable DAC compatible w/ iPhone or iPod Well, I just bought a clean used one off of eBay. Feeling like taking a risk and trying it out. I really hope it works to make the spinning class playlists a little funkier. When I get it I think I'll test it out straight into my Bryston preamp an... | |
| Portable DAC compatible w/ iPhone or iPod Thanks - JI35: I know about the Pono player, I'm thinking of that other company that makes clever little "Toblerone candy" shaped mini DAC's similar to the Pono. I'll have to research it some more. The company name was an acronym for something...d... | |
| Sony XA 5400 ES display has gone blank x2 Apparently the service center is no longer in Laredo,TX. It is now in Michigan. The service center is outside of Detroit in Roseville, Mich. The 3rd party company is called ABL/Gibson TV. The charge to look at it is $79.99 plus shipping there and ... | |
| Who has some history with the Bryston phono stage? I saw that about the new 1/3 chassis phono stages. Maybe their introduction will prompt the analog guy at Stereophile to do a thorough review. | |
| Sony XA 5400 ES display has gone blank x2 If I replaced it with a new model, I think I would just migrate 100% over to Bryston products thanks to their superior customer service. I will go a ahead most likely and send it in for an estimate, but to be honest I'm thinking of just advertisin... | |
| Diagnose the weak link. Yeah, I kink of knew it must be the preamp but wasn't sure how significant the preamp was on the total sound. Right now, many rock CD's are just way oversaturated and only the quiet passages are listenable. I really like Smashing Pumpkins but the ... |
