| Cable Elevators - What do you use? Otis. Stops at every floor I press.Have tried them in both main and BR systems and never heard them make a whit of difference. Maybe the type of carpet of flooring one had makes a difference.Neal | |
| Sony SCDXA5400es vs. Cambridge Azur 840c Sony cannot be used as a DAC; no digital inputs.Neal | |
| Reterminating Valhalla RCA to XLR Yes, they have done this for me. Pricey, though. But as noted, will preserve resale value and it will be done right.Neal | |
| Low-cost I/C's The Anti-Cables with Eichmann terminations play way way above their weight class.Neal | |
| best Marantz tuners? Don't ignore more modern Marantz tuners. I am now using a ST-17 and am growing to appreciate it as much if not more than my cherished Mac MR 80. Just because it is not "vintage" does not mean it is not a first class tuner -- and it is!Neal | |
| Berkeley Audio Design SPDIF Input Thanks, Comrades. I knew you would answer. I am looking to audition BAD DAC, even though I emailed this question to them and they never responded. I would use AES/EBU for CECD transport, but for iTransport or DVD player would use SPDIF, and now I ... | |
| is Lessloss signature that much better than orig? I an breaking in 2 Sigs after having had the Originals. I will have more to say when I have had more time to listen, but my early impressions are that the Sigs are significantly better, perhaps a 25-30% improvement if I had to quantify. They seem ... | |
| Monitor speaker that will stop the Quest? Spendor SA1. Small box of magic.Neal | |
| Wadia ITransport Well done. iTransport one of major reasons I have not moved to computer audio. If Wadia developed a remote where you could see and control iPod menu, I would never move.Neal | |
| Wadia ITransport RPG,Good work. Curious which high grade PC you have which has two-pin connector.Now on to better digicable and you'll be good to go.Neal | |
| Cd transport isolation After much trial and error, I settled on (no pun intended) Aurios MIB's under my CEC TL-1X and have never looked back. Neal | |
| Best Powerchord for DIGITAL sources? what are you. Nordost Valhalla and Elrod Statement are the two best I have used, and I have tried almost all the big names. I know the Valhalla elicits emotional reactions on the IC side widely , but I find the PC (of which I have two) more balanced and full bo... | |
| Wadia ITransport RPG,To elaborate, the iTransport PC (power cord) has what is known as a C14 two-pin connector which plugs in to the iTransport; on the other end are the prongs for the connection to the wall of power conditioner. I was suggesting getting a Voodoo ... | |
| Wadia ITransport You might want to get an adaptor (Voodoo Cable) and use a first class PC instead of the stock. Made a large difference on my iTransport. I also use a first class digicable -- Kharma Grand Ref -- which also makes a huge difference. With these upgra... | |
| SONY XA5400ES - Preliminary Observations Dougnc,I did not try as transport. I will, out of curiosity. I would be surprised if it compared with the mighty CEC TL-1x, as modded.Neal |
