| Torus vs AudioQuest Niagara I considered a Torus but was lead to a PS Audio P12. For me, it was a question of replacing my quite excellent Shunyata Triton/Typhon ($18K). I discovered that I could get the benefits of the P12 and the Shunyatas. by plugging in the P12 to the T... | |
| Will rebuilt Quad ESL 57s take the place on a great $30K dynamic speaker? Learned a lesson once more: don’t judge a component until it has a chance to warm up and open up. The First Watt M3 is much better today now that it went from dead cold to warm after about 10 hours. And the Quads have now also opened up. Interest... | |
| Will rebuilt Quad ESL 57s take the place on a great $30K dynamic speaker? Just put a First Watt M3 on line. It’s not as pretty as the AGDs but sounds good, Just slapped on “So”. OMG, even worse.

| Precision Aqueous Cleaning of Vinyl Records I use a Keith Monks RCM with the KM special fluid. Wondering if it would also be good to apply the Walker enzyme treatment? Seems like a lot of work but I think that BetterRecords uses the KM and then the Walker. | |
| Competitive class D amp suggestions Very curious to hear the difference between my AGDs and the Atmas. In chrome, my Audions are $8400. The Atmas are only &5400. @clio09 Your Berning OTL is something like $80k… is it not? And the Atmas go head to head??! | |
| What type of wire for dedicated 20A AC lines? My Oyaide cable and duplexes motivated me to add a PS Audio P12 Power Plant to my new line and Shunyata Triton/Typhon. PSA recommends not using a pc with their power plants. However, they do say that careful evaluation is called for. There is a s... | |
