What are you trying to tweak improve? SolI never used to care too much for cones but recently tried the new Mapleshade brass cones and heavyhats and like them very much. There seems to be something to the theory that brass works best, since when using both cones and heavyhatsI get inc... | |
Virtual Dynamics Recall Of course I could run a PS Audio Juice bar or VD strip from another Ultimate Outlet for my front end gear and get the surge protection, but then the cost is close to buying used PS Audio P300 which would be better solution for front end gear. | |

Tone controls to get bass from small speakers? Before you spend big bucks try putting some vibrapods between Spicas and stands, you will be amazed at the increase in bass response.If you try this with larger floor standing speakers it will often produce too much bass, but small two way monitor... | |
News about Bel Canto Dac2 Release GuyIs this your first BC Dac or did you own previous model? I see BC site now has limited info posted about Dac 2, would love to hear your impressions especially if you can compare to previous model. | |
