| Audience AU24 sx vs Audioquest Hurricane Power Cable Have not heard the AU24 power cord but I use the AQ Hurricane and is an excellent PC and value-priced, relatively speaking. Neal | |
| Audioquest Vodka vs Wireworld Starlight 8 (Not Platinum) Ethernet IMHO, the more I listen to my AQ Vodka Ethernet cable, I am convinced it is markedly superior to the WW Starlight CAT8, which at its price is a great value. The Vodka is more full-bodied and balanced, with dead background silence. At some point, I... | |
| Audioquest Vodka vs Wireworld Starlight 8 (Not Platinum) Ethernet And how is FMC better than ethernet cable? | |
| Audioquest Vodka vs Wireworld Starlight 8 (Not Platinum) Ethernet What are FMC points? | |
| Heard the Margo Timmons solo release? Margo is on Tidal as well. Haunting and scintillating. Excellent sound quality. Neal | |
| Audioquest Vodka vs Wireworld Starlight 8 (Not Platinum) Ethernet I purchased a used AQ Vodka Ethernet and compared it with my then current (no pun intended) Wireworld Starlight 8. The Vodka clearly was the winner in my rig. More full-bodied and deeper, more taut bass, better natural vocals, and the piano test d... | |
| Many higher end preamps are dated and ugly, why is this? My VTL 7.5iii preamp is perennially modern and classic, sleek and attractive. No one can call it "ugly" unless your aesthetic sensibility is, shall we say, singular! Neal | |
| Audioquest Vodka vs Wireworld Starlight 8 (Not Platinum) Ethernet Thank you, Dave and Troy. I understand higher cost does not always equate better quality, but the AQ Vodka is literally 2x the price of the WW Starlight 8 (not the Platinum Starlight). Are you saying you felt the WW Starlight 8 sounds better than ... | |

| Good sounding wired earbuds - affordable? I have gone up the ladder with Etymotics. Most neutral wired earphones there are, and very comfortable. Won't listen to anything else. Now have top ER-4XR. Neal | |
| Tuner choice I have the King Of Tuners: Sansui TU-X1, and with a Synergistic Purple Fuse installed, guests cannot tell music from the tuner vs. CD's. Hard to find, expensive, but well-worth it. I have a few other Sansui's, e.g, 9900; good. but no TU-X1. | |
| How can a PS Audio Perfect Wave DAC enhance my system? I run my PSA DSD through my VTL 7.5iii preamp. It sounds miles better than directly from DAC to amp. Cannot spoeak to your preamp talents. Try both. I have used digital from the first CDP - the Magnavox CDP 650 -- since around 1986, and have h... | |
| Ripping CD's to load onto a new Aurender N20 Server/Streamer Ditto with dbPoweramp on a PC. Use it with ALAC and works great. Neal | |
| Less-Loss anyone? I have not tried the Firewall for Speakers on my newish Fidelium speaker cables. The thought of wrestling with my cables behind speakers, etc. is always agonizing and causes procrastination. Any thoughts with using the Firewall for Speakers on the... | |
| Thoughts on Shunyata and Transparent? I was skeptical about Shunyata IC's but I now use 2 pairs Sigma AES/EBU V1's and they made me a converted. If I can find used IC Sigma V2's, I will grab those as well. IC's run from my PS Audio DSD/Bridge II to VTL 7.5iii preamp, and pre to my le... |
