| Thinking of Magnepan ... finally! @yyzsantabarbara yeah, I have read plenty from really knowledgeable bloggers, some who have forgotten more about speaker and crossover design than I will ever know, and some who have designed and engineered world class amplifiers, who still state ... | |
| Thinking of Magnepan ... finally! Yeah, that painting is quite big, the problem is it is a large flat surface you can’t get the scattering or diffusion with it and the sound will always be compromised. I don’t know if somebody else has a say in the matter but the best sound will ... | |
| Thinking of Magnepan ... finally! @arafiq I know GIK wanted to sell me the polyfusor’s behind them, but that was before they came out with the slatfusor’s or their own Q7 diffusor . I am curious to know what they would recommend now, but me being in Canada the cost of shipping was... | |
| recommendation cable fix The manufacturer would be the first choice- if they stand behind their product they should repair it at no charge. | |
| Which power cord should you buy first @maxlarson I am currently using Audio Sensibility Statement cords on my XS150 monos - and was happy enough to go with them throughout the rest of my system. I will say - what I think made the most difference - was plugging them directly into... | |
| Thinking of Magnepan ... finally! My pleasure. Glad you are enjoying the bonkers setup. For others wondering wtf, essentially it is a theory of coupling the speakers back wave to the room itself using the front wall, and what results is a wall of sound, a cathedral effect, and ye... | |
| Thinking of Magnepan ... finally! So you have both the Harbeths and now the 3.7i’s? It has been 15 years since I broke my 3.6’s in, I don’t recall what the tweeter did during break in, but I recall the bass was quite tight and lean until they did, then it got fuller and deeper as... | |
| New Speaker cables. Interesting https://fono-acustica.com/ | |
| Puritan PSM156 Agreed @jriggy . That was another cable that was (still is) on my list to try. I think I may be a power cable slut. One Ultimate power cord for sale if someone is interested. | |
| Puritan PSM156 @willywonka Their advice would be bad advice in my case. I just upgraded my Ultimate power cord to one that retails for 3x the price, and I can confirm it is definitely worth it. It may be just as big a jump as going from the classic cord to the u... | |
| Which power cord should you buy first I could have as easily given the answer @garebear has, depends on my mood on any given day. But agreed, right at the top of this page, see the "search discussions" bar? search first, then search other forums- that is what I do instead of startin... | |
| Which power cord should you buy first Given the list you have go from left to right. If you are listening to the turntable you could unplug the DAC and streamer, so those cords wouldn't matter, and vice versa, but: The most important power cable is the one going to the power conditi... | |
| power cable tryout High fidelity cables has me wondering..... need suggestions now Why mention two as female? Golly, I was wondering the same thing. It goes without saying that between the laundry, watching the children, and cooking in the kitchen they have no time to make power cables. Besides, only men own the tools. Honey,... | |
| XLO Signature and Reference Interconnects I have seen some clear out prices from Audio Connexion also. Don’t know- maybe the company name was bought recently and someone is reproducing cables again using the XLO name hoping people will jump on them? Compare your dealers prices with these.... | |
| Music server recommendations needed. @russbutton Iʻd run a pair of the Dutch & Dutch 8c Well I am in agreement with you there. There is something appealing and liberating about the Grimm MU1 & LS1 setup as well, I hope to hear it one day. |
