| Power filtering – Furutech or Puritan Audio? Here is another reason to go with Puritan: I bought a groundmaster for my PSM156 4 months ago, and finally got around to driving in a 6' ground rod, fishing some solid core copper along the joists, down the wall, etc. and hooked it up. Does my P... | |
| Power filtering – Furutech or Puritan Audio? I think the REF I5i is made by Furman, not Furutech... Sounds like you are enjoying the PSM 156 (not PMS!). 🤣 | |
| Sound Quality @upstateaudiophile funny, just before I read your post I read this one: you may find it interesting cd vs streaming edit: don't know if that link worked- it is the post by @jmeyers on June 1 | |
| Back to the DAC @jmeyers 👍 | |
| Back to the DAC Definitely try the M1S2 direct to your amplifier. That might be a revelation. Yes, let us know how you like the "more direct" sound. I'm done for now, thanks to you all for your help & support on my audio journey, time to sit back and e... | |
| 12 wire compared to Nordost Blue Heaven Speaker Cable? 3. roxy54 I came here with no conception of "fake cables!" The "shame" here should be upon those who flared at me for asking a civil question. I can't believe anyone is this thick. This must be a hoax. | |
| Power cable for AQ Niagara 5000 @cjlundberg thread is almost 4 months old- what did the OP end up doing? | |
| Tube amps under $7500 I wished I would had listened years ago when someone suggested to me MCintosh ,ARC or CJ as a preamp. I kiss a lot of frogs on my journey.Listen to the words of wisdom @ghdprentice he is like the good cool uncle at the bbq .One of my bigges... | |

| ABX testing with AQ Dragon power cords I would also wager that any guy walking off the street to hear your rig is not some trained listener and golden ear bat...Sounds like poor quality test subjects to me. @deep_333 For what its worth, this poor quality subject has just acquired ... | |
| Dedicated mains supply unexpected result Aluminum is for cans! Copper is for electrical wire and pennies. Not so, they are using aluminum cables for distribution lines and connections from the street to the houses, at least where I live in BC. And there isn’t much copper in pennies th... | |
| ABX testing with AQ Dragon power cords @audphile1 uh, look up ^ 😉 | |
| ABX testing with AQ Dragon power cords Well, I went to the OP’s place yesterday and listened to his system. Thank you Dave for allowing me to do this and also making me an espresso from your own home-roasted beans. Turns out we both have similar hobbies- a love for audio and coffee. Th... | |
| Mad Scientist Audio Speaker Cable I have read some really good things about this company from down under, and they have been making some quality cables for some time, I haven’t yet tried any myself but read plenty of good reviews. Having said that I think Huff says whatever will ... | |
| SPEAKER CABLE OR INTERCONNECT @jasbirnandra Honestly I think @geauxaudio gave you the best answer you could hope to find. As he suggested contact Colin at Gestalt for his opinion on the matter. If you get 20 more responses here and half say IC's and half say speaker cables h... |
