Sonic Frontiers P3/T3 opinions needed..
Hi Jman, I currently have the T3/P3 combo and absolutely love it. It does everything right and I've never heard a better digital front end. That said, I am also waiting for the arrival of a Wadia 270/27ix/150 combo. It is not that I am dissatisfie... 
Vote for the best speakers in 10K range
KThomas- I am currently running a pair of Confidence 5s and couldn't be happier. In my room (25'x19'), I don't find the bass to be lacking at all. The 5s are much more "analytical" than the 3.3s. This means that the 5s will more readily show defic... 
PS Audio PP300 works great, but......
Thanks for all the comments. I will post back in a few of days to let everyone know my longer term impressions. Sagger: I'm a detail freak (hence the Dynaudio Confidences)and I definitely hear more detail with the 300. However, it seems that it ha... 
PS Audio PP300 works great, but......
Kira: When I first turned everything on, the 300 would shut down. However, I think the VK5i takes too much power only from a cold start, i.e. fresh plug in. If I turn on the 5i first with the SF t3 off and the p3 on standby, it all start fine. I t... 
Amp+Cords or New Amp, best bang for $$$

Bass speaker cables
Audioquest Midnights are EXCELLENT for the low end, but have WAY too much roll-off for full-range IMHO. 
Please help: Something wrong with my spkrs
From your description, the problem is in your amp rather than your speakers. The "Pop" is the problem and the "Chiu" is the capacitor discharging a modulated signal into your speakers. The problem is definately internal to your amplifier. Hope som... 
Amplifier for Dynaudio Contour 3.3
I'm using a BAT VK-500 with my Dynaudio Confidence 5s and think them to be a great match. The VK-500 puts out 400wpc into the 4 ohm load. BAT is known for building solid state amps that sound close to tube amps in the mid-hi range while having the... 
Dedicated AC Line, Part 1,999,957
I will be putting in two 4-outlet isolated ground boxes 7 feet apart with the closer one 35 feet from the breaker panel. I'm considering running two separate lines to each 4-outlet box. Will the 7 foot difference in ground length give me ground lo... 
Dedicated AC Line, Part 1,999,957
No answers. Let me break up my question: OK, I've read all the archived discussions on dedicated AC lines and have decided to take the plunge, but still have a few questions: I haven't seen any reference to BX/MC AC cable and I'm thinking of using... 
Your Listening chair
Whatjd, looks like this thread may give you some business. I've been considering purchasing a couple Wegner chairs. I especially like the lambswool over bent oak chair (not sure of the #). My wife also thinks it's the most comfortable ever, but I ...
