| Power Cord for my McCormack DNA-500 Fplanner2000, I have used the Cable Company before on speaker cables a few years back and they are great to work with. And, yes, I have no doubt that if I hear what the high-end PCs like the Elrod can do on the DNA-500, I'll want one. Unfortunatel... | |
| Shunyata Hydra Users....Your Opinion please... When I bought my orig Hydra a number of years back I did compare it with the PS Audio conditioner at that time. The Hydra greatly outperformed the PS Audio (in my system). A far more relaxed musical presentation yet more transparent and dynamic.Si... | |
| VH Audio Flavor 4 for Shunyata Hydra. I currently have a VH Audio Airsine powering my orig Hydra which was a major step up from the supplied PC for the Hydra which I've been told was comparable to a Shunyata Sidewinder.I also own a Shunyata Sidewinder and have compared it to a Flavor ... | |
| Power Cable - what´s your best? Another vote for the VH Audio PCs. I've got a couple Flavor 4s and an Airsine. Chris does great work!check it out here .... http://www.vhaudio.comThe only downside with VH Audio is that you rarely ever seem them used here on 'Gon -- but the price ... | |
| Nuforce I spent quite a bit of time recently comparing the Nuforce 9.02s to a McCormack DNA-500. Let's just say that the difference sonically is a lot less than the difference in price. The Nuforce truely are exceptional bang-for-the-buck amps that compet... | |
| Any experience with the Nuforce Integrated Amp? You might find more feedback on Audiocircle.com. Nuforce has it's own manufacturer's circle and I believe there are a number of posts about the IA-7. | |
| Butler TDB 2250 Amplifier Questions I have to say that has not been my experience. I don't own the Butler, but I did spend several weeks with one recently and have to say that it was a wonderfully resolving amp. Of course, resolution, like any sonic characteristic, is system depende... | |
| Power Cord for my McCormack DNA-500 Thanks to all for the positive feedback on the DCCA Extreme Ref. I did contact Don but I'm afraid even the demo is a bit beyond my reach right now. But I will definitely keep an eye on this cable.And thanks, Steve, for your insight on PCs for your... | |
| How trustworhty is Used Cables? It's been a few years since I bought from them but they were very helpful when I was comparing speaker cables. I "believe" their matching database is based in large part on their sales data relative to the components in use by their customers at t... | |
| Personal amp evolution spanning nearly 30 years...- Pioneer receiver- Hafler DH200 - Bryston 3B- Levinson 331- McCormack DNA-500 The McCormack is just amazing and ain't going anywhere soon. | |
| WHICH ARC LINESTAGE TO REPLACE LS-15? I have to second the GNSC mods. A few years back I seriously considered replacing my SP9 MkII with an LS25 and spent some time listening to a loaner LS25. However, after talking with Steve Huntley, I decided to go with the Ref mod on my SP9 MkII p... | |
| Ultimate Amplifier for the next 20 Years Fplanner2000 - I suspect you're right but buying the DNA 500 used, but... $4K without being able to see/hear makes me nervous (likely something I just need to get over ;-)Since you've heard the Butler, have you also heard the Nuforce 9s? | |
| Ultimate Amplifier for the next 20 Years I've got a Levinson 331 driving a pair of Aerial 10Ts. These speakers love power so I've been trying some other amps with a bit more muscle than the Levinson's 100 amps. While the McCormack DNA 500 is something I'd love to hear in my system, there... | |
| Nuforce Plato, earlier in this thread you mentioned the NF 8s with Aerial 10T speakers. Have you tried your new NF 9s with the 10Ts? | |
| Nuforce I've also got a pair of Aerial 10Ts that I've been driving with a Levinson 331 but have been toying with the idea of uping the power since the 10Ts do love power. The McCormack DNA-500 is on my wish list but, of course, it's price tag is a good bi... |
