| Turntable Placement Between Speakers with Short Interconnect? onhwy61 that is music to my ears and hopefully yes I am overanalyzing things, which actually come to think of it is a large part of this hobby which seldom yields results. Usually just a matter of trying things out, which is why I think I will ju... | |
| Turntable Placement Between Speakers with Short Interconnect? Another note, yes my stand for my Diablo’s is a heavy wood stand that is very low and very wide. It’s less than 1.5 ft tall not including the gear itself. I’ve always thought my imaging performance was good, but maybe it would be better without th... | |
| Why do folks spend more on electronics than on speakers? Gosta I agree, the 802’s may not be too mid-forward. Just more mid-forward from what I am used to; it is all relative. I did read a recent review of the 802 D4’s that noted the bass and presence would be lacking in any room larger than 430 sq ft... | |
| Turntable Placement Between Speakers with Short Interconnect? One other thought I had was to first purchase a low end $1k Pro-ject turntable to experiment with the position between my speakers. If I’m lucky, maybe it simply isn’t an issue…. I can always sell the cheaper TT after. of note, I have all other g... | |
| Turntable Placement Between Speakers with Short Interconnect? Thanks again All…. Would this be a possible solution: I take out the easily removable phono card from my Diablo, and instead purchase an external module to go next to my turntable 3 ft to the right of my right speaker. Then the 8 ft interconnect ... | |
| Turntable Placement Between Speakers with Short Interconnect? Thanks for the advice all. Will look into the MinusK platform… Totally get the appeal of looking at empty space between the speakers. But I also like looking at my Diablo 300 in that spot too! The turntable will add to that however. Regardi... | |
| Why do folks spend more on electronics than on speakers? Ronboco thanks for the recommendation on the Rockports. Not sure if they are in my region; will have to look.. I didn’t actually find the 802 D3’s at all fatiguing, not by a longshot when driven by the Diablo 300. While I found the presentation t... | |
| Power Conditioning - How Important for Digital and Analog Source Components vs Amp? I actually agree with you, I’ve found that beefy expensive cords to the amp definitely sound better. But I do plug my amp directly into the wall as I mentioned. I feel like there is no point even connecting it to the AQ 1200 considering that the... | |
| Why do folks spend more on electronics than on speakers? In my case, I am upgrading all of my system to an “end state” leaving the speakers for last. Maybe an end state will never actually be achievable but with my Diablo 300 and it’s DAC module that together I adore the sound of, on my relatively modes... | |
| Power Conditioning - How Important for Digital and Analog Source Components vs Amp? Drrstlif, What power cords and USB cable are you using on your Diablo (which is totally awesome, I agree)? I’m a bit worried about limiting the amp’s performance by plugging it into a conditioner considering what the manual and what Fleming says... | |
| Power Conditioning - How Important for Digital and Analog Source Components vs Amp? I know it’s an age old debating point but I will say it anyways: how can the PC suddenly provide more power on demand when you have all that smaller gauge wire in your wall? | |
| Power Conditioning - How Important for Digital and Analog Source Components vs Amp? Thanks, I suppose I will need to do a test of a basic cable connected to my conditioner vs a more spendy one. Since I can’t swap my high end amp power cord without ruining the test results, I’ll need to find a demo cable to try. Despite my a... | |
| Power Conditioning - How Important for Digital and Analog Source Components vs Amp? I completely agree with your list ghdprentice and yes power cord to amp makes SO much difference. Can make or break a system. what is still a mystery to me is how important the cord going TO the conditioner is. Is this a place that you can skimp ... | |
| Power Conditioning - How Important for Digital and Analog Source Components vs Amp? Thanks for the advice all. Just did a first quick comparison with and without the AQ 1200 for my InnuOS streamer, and I definitely heard an improvement with the conditioning, albeit a small one. It was the same effect all across the frequency ra... | |
| Power Conditioning - How Important for Digital and Analog Source Components vs Amp? Yep, all makes sense. What I was wondering about however, all conditions including "dirtiness" being equal, is which components are more or less impacted by the grade of power cords and conditioning. Like, is it more important to put the best co... |
