| Products you added to your system in 2021 that made most impact to your music enjoyment - Upgraded from Node 2i to Lumin T2: Holy moly! the increase in resolution is just astounding. Makes everything more realistic. However, I do miss the Node's app which is superior. - Removed preamp: Lumin's own Leedh volume processing really i... | |
| So Many Apogees for sale, and so few takers I too was looking into pair of older apogees a little while back. But, after talking to an expert about restoring an older pair(cant remember the name), he mentioned that ALL the original condition apogees need complete makeovers nowadays given th... | |
| Placement of components in audio rack I think you will probably lose any performance you gain by playing with component positioning on shelves ,if you have to go to longer interconnects. From my experience, shorter ICs always have equated to better sound. Even inferior shorter ICs sou... | |
| Whats more important, source cables or amp cables? I just went thru swapping cables myself and it was admittedly a royal PITA. However, it did reveal interesting and significant changes depending upon where i placed the ICs and PCs. Source to pre did provide more audible differences. You will have... | |

| NAD T761 or something else? I just bought one too. It is VERY musical. It sounds good in my HT system with my Alon Petite Speakers. But beware, I bought it factory refurbished. The first unit started smoking right after I turned up the volume and was missing a cover for the ... | |
| Buzzing with HFN Test Lp II Hi Onhwy61,Thanks for the info. Whew, I was worried there. I haven't been playing any of my prized LPs because I didn't want to ruin them. I am using a Moerch UP-4 unipivot tonearm with the Green dot armtube(lightest) and a Stanton CS-100 MM cartr... | |
| Any Audio Grade Extension Cords??? I have heard that Virtual Dynamics can custom make ones for you. You can call them to ask. | |
| Tubes? Transistors? Which are better? I am in total agreement with tubegroover and kevziek. Tubes are just more musical. I used to own a Classe 70 amp, then upgraded to my current Aronov. Wow, what a difference. Definitely feels like a performer is in the room singing just for me. Yip... | |
| Who R U? Hi everybody! I am 28. I've been visiting the site for about a month now and just joined A'gon two days ago. This is a great site! I am a chiropractic physician. I just recently graduated with tons of loans. Anyway, my first foray into audio was b... |
