| Upgraded power cables- Who's on First? bad in = bad out. Putting a better power cable on your amp first won't make your signal any better if the signal coming from the CDP has bad power. The better the signal to start off with the better it will be when it reaches your speakers. You ne... | |
| Anyone heard the new Jupiter HT Beeswax caps I compared them to a set of russian paper in oil caps and the beeswax were noisy, grainy, and nowhere near as natural and organic (organic = neutral) as the ruskies. The russian caps were cheaper too. We are now using Jensen 4-pole caps in the pow... | |
| Looking for better Power Conditioner than my Tice I would recommend a topaz Isolation transformer. My reference power conditioners were in the 4-8k range and for a couple hundred bucks on ebay I bought an isolation transformer. The transformer is more neutral and lowers the noise floor by 136-146... | |
| Anyone tried Quantum Resonant Technology? I have to agree with Krell_Man. If you can find a topaz isolation transformer you'll beat just about any conditioner on the market. I recently listened to the Tripoint Audio Spartan ($35k) power conditioner and I honestly don't know that it's any ... | |
| Should I upgrade DAC, speaker cables, ICs, or PCs? Obviously upgrading your front end will make the biggest impact on your system. Bad in = bad out no matter how you look at it. So the better source you can start with the better off you are. Remove the noise from your system and there lies the mus... | |
| What power cord with your ARC AR VS 115? If you decide to get something let me know, I might be able to talk Ben into getting you a fairly good discount on the prices listed on the website. No promises though. | |
| What power cord with your ARC AR VS 115? I apologize. Mojo Audio is not MY product. I am a friend of the designer and a customer. He allows me to distribute his cables, but I in no way do this for a living. I am merely "advertising" the cables from the standpoint of how much of a positiv... | |
| What power cord with your ARC AR VS 115? Of course I'd give him his money back if he doesn't like the cables. We have a nice return policy. But we are yet to have a cable returned. Both our interconnects and power cords are not just the best value, but the best cords I've used. And I've ... | |
| Power Cords I would look at spending your budget on a Mojo Audio power cord. They've replaced Tara Labs The One, LessLoss Signature, Tel Wire HC, Argento FMR $7k, DCCA Master, Shunyata Anaconda, Shunyata King Cobra, Virtual Dynamics Genesis, and probably othe... | |
| What power cord with your ARC AR VS 115? I would recommend taking a look at Mojo Audio power cables. They're relatively inexpensive and have replaced cables costing as much as $7k. Send me an email if you have any questions. But I guarantee they'll beat the stock cords on the ARC amps, a... | |
| Audio with a Computer source If you are looking for a computer source then I would recommend a Spatial Computer system. Shoot me an email if you want more information. It'll be far superior performance for the money you're looking to spend. | |
| Review: Tube Research Labs The Dude Tube preamp Topsel, It's worth the wait! It'll sound a little strident for the first day and will get better over the next month -- MUCH better. You are in for a treat, it's a special preamp. | |
| Review: Tube Research Labs Dude Tube preamp I apologize for being slow to post the review! My shooting schedule is heavy right now and I haven't had a chance to breath much less listen to music this past week!But hey, at least I'm housebroken. | |
| Review: Tube Research Labs Dude Tube preamp Brian,I am actually working on an independent film for the next few months, but then will be working on a sci-fi/fantasy film out in LA after that -- which I can't say anything about. The film I am working on now is about a guy who wakes up comple... | |
| Review: Tube Research Labs Dude Tube preamp I had a fantastic time listening to Andrew's system last weekend. Absolutely fantastic music! I'm really looking forward to bringing some toys over to see where his expensive gizmos can be pushed! Thanks for the excellent hospitality, Andrew! It w... |
