Do you run a high end power cord on your sub?
Just because you are a disgruntled past owner of S.R. products, does not mean you have the RIGHT to convince other people to try and sell another product for another company.Actually, he does have the RIGHT to post his opinion on this forum about ... 
Passive Preamp Recommendations?
The Goldpoint SMD resistor passive and Endler Audio Stepped Attenuators I have here display a purity of sound that is very nice at first, but as time goes on you realize there is a level of dynamics and tonal density missing, compared to active pr... 
Best beer
I second the Fuller's Stout, Nonoise.Their ESB is another go-to choice for me.Samuel Smith's Oatmeal Stout is also a favorite anytime we have 3 feet of snow on the ground. 
Class D Ncore Atsah in the house
Hifial, I appreciate the comments. Sadly, the Atsah amps are now back on the road to their next stop. I did have some time to make a few cable changes, but did not have the time to get to know the amps as I would if I owned them. I can say the pai... 
Class D Ncore Atsah in the house
Spent more time listening and switching in/out between the Claytons and Atsahs this weekend since I am on the last day(s) of the audition.There is a lot to consider, and I like the Atsah amps quite a bit. I took notes and plan to summarize my thou... 
Bidding Frustration
Pgleekel, while Audiogon members can be a great sounding board, unfortunately public opinion will not really solve your issue. In these situations, your choice is either to take action, or not. Not sure why Audiogon would give you the "unless the ... 
advice on dedicated line
Lak has it covered nicely.The only add I would offer is that if your system is quite a distance from your service box, you may consider having them run a 50 or 60 amp sub-panel, positioned somewhere nearer to your system and then all your individu... 
Good source for CD storage boxes
A couple of years ago, I took all my CDs out of their jewel cases and filed them alphabetically in large 336 disc capacity Case Logic sleeved cases ($25 each), leaving room under each letter for more entries. The sleeved cases allow quick access a... 
Do you run a high end power cord on your sub?
Since you are dealing solely with the lowest frequencies, I suspect having a cord with sufficient gauge conductors is the biggest requirement for a sub. 
Bidding Frustration
wait a minute all...Reading this thread, it doesn't sound as if the OP's situation is being addressed. However, there are some problems with how things are stated since a seller cannot "counter" a "bid," which raises the question, was this a "bid"... 
Life after ADS
I owned L810s for over 20 years and I am now perfectly happy with a pair of Kelly's Aerial 9s. Not exactly the same sound as the ADS, but every bit as musical, IMO. I would however like to hear some of the bigger ADS speakers you guys are discussing. 
What's the best Dac for the money
If this dac is the real deal then why list it for sale now so soon?Good question, le. Why do you think Pavpet is selling the Audio Horizons DAC? Did he have it listed for sale on 2-3, because I do not see it listed for sale now?For Pavpet, how abo... 
Class D Ncore Atsah in the house
I am surprised at the lack of interest in this topic of the Ncore NC1200 Atsah amplifiers. There is a lot to like.I am on the last two days of my audition and put the Clayton amps back in my system for a bit last night. My first take is the Clayto... 
Hi-Fi Fuses - SNAKE OIL? - or something in it?
My present fuses are well broken in...having been used & never replaced since they were new, pre 1973.That raises an interesting question, if OS fuses sound so good maybe we should be looking for NOS fuses :>) Also, Geoff saysThere is also ... 
Class D Ncore Atsah in the house
No problem, SES, I have enjoyed this. I am listening to Warren Haynes Live at Bonnaroo right now, Tastes Like Wine and now Wasted Time, his guitar just rings - attack, sustain, decay just the way it should be. Vocals have body, and the crowd and o...
