| Duelund conversion to DIY Helix Geometry Cabling @ketchup good question...I would say that the positive/line conductor should be twisted in the opposite direction of the negative/return conductors. Basic current flow... @williewonka I have tried many cables with this orientation and rea... | |
| Duelund conversion to DIY Helix Geometry Cabling @pindac I have not received my AR CCC bulk wire. I ordered fromjapan. We'll see if it ever shows up. As an EE, I do like some of your terminology (Eddy properties). Not an analog/vinyl person, so my only interest in these cables will be an X... | |
| What I have found - Makes a good Cable ! Steve, I’m to the point where we can buy a really solid cables from the likes of Zavfino, AE, Viborg. I’m still waiting on the CCC cable. I’ll keep building DIY stuff, but do agree that we will be cable free in the near future. How many folks a... | |
| GaN amps: Peachtree or LSA Voyager? On another note, who is experiencing turn on thump/noise with the Peachtree? | |
| GaN amps: Peachtree or LSA Voyager? Pretty sure Wally will knock off a grand if you buy the LSA. Andrew had a return policy that made the GaN400 around $1500. | |
| GaN amps: Peachtree or LSA Voyager? Can’t go wrong with the LSA or Peachtree at <$2k. Sure. Did you mean <$3K? nope. You can find both for less than $2K | |
| GaN amps: Peachtree or LSA Voyager? @niodari I would buy the Peachtree GaN400.. This thread has gone sideways once again. Too many gasbags... My reference is Purifi, but after about 10 days with the Peachtree, I’m really impressed. Can’t go wrong with the LSA or Peachtree at <... | |
| Hifi Rose RA180 Yeah. I hope to give it a try. I now have the 150B and couldn't be happier with their streamer/dac. | |

| Competitive class D amp suggestions @niodari The UcDs were DIY amps that I build over 10 yrs ago. Ncore via Teac, NAD, and Cambridge designs. Purifi via Mivera. I have always found that the source content really defined the listening experience. Garbage in...garbage out. Neve... | |
| Competitive class D amp suggestions @avanti1960 where did you hear the Rose RA180? Here is the US? I've been very happy with Class D for quite some time. Early Hypex (UcD, Ncore), more recently Purifi and now Class D Audio Mini GaN 5. Will be trying out the Peachtree 400 and th... | |
| My First DIY Power Cable @mitch2 Never said the cable was 19awg. L/N are ~12awg, G ~13.5. Pretty adequate for a PC. | |
| My First DIY Power Cable Steve, May have to try swapping the the yellow/red as you point out. I have two cables so could be an interesting eval... Plus they are terminated with fork terminals for easy/secure connections. Marty | |
| My First DIY Power Cable Hi Steve, As you posted... Red - line Black - neutral Yellow - ground Although, each wire/conductor is 19.5 AWG. This is very solid cable. Prices have actually dipped below $100 at times... https://smile.amazon.com/Viborg-Audiophi... | |
| My First DIY Power Cable If you like the Viborg story, go with their bulk power cable. I have a couple and they are solid. https://www.ebay.com/itm/203205357455 |
