| Power cord suggestions for CDP and tube amp I really don't have any complaints about the way my system sounds now with stock cords. I've read a lot about how the "right" power cord can improve the sound of a system so I want to try some different cords to see if I can hear a - hopefully pos... | |
| Upgrade suggestions - from Rotel 1066 receiver You guys are right. There really is no justifiable reason to upgrade my Rotel receiver - which I incorrectly posted as a 1066 - it is an RSX1055. :-o I've been replacing a lot of components in the last month or so and I think my upgraditis spilled... | |
| Power cord suggestions for CDP and tube amp Hi Thorman - thank you for the offer of help. I will indeed email you!Holly | |
| Power cord suggestions for CDP and tube amp Thank you both for your responses. I will look into the cables suggested. Any other recommendations?Thorman - stupid noob question for you. On the VH site, Chris is offering 15 Amp or 20 Amp versions of the power cord - I have seen these 2 selecti... | |
| Recommend LCD / plasma TV ? I just bought a Samsung LNS4692D (46" LCD) and really like it. I decided against the 1080p version, which is indeed already available, since I was under the impression that it will be a couple of years down the road before media with this resoluti... | |
| Killer Specs for High End PC in 2006 I recommend the Lian Li cases, too. Great cooling, which is very helpful if you have multiple hard drives (music server,) and a heat-emitting graphics card (or 2 -SLI,) excellent build quality IMHO, very easy to work with - no sharp edges. Here is... | |
| Need an audio switch box - 2 sources/1 pr speakers I see I won't be getting any responses to this post; my guess is that switches are not much approved of here. Just in case any one is interested, I purchased the Mapletree Audio LR1 line router. I should be receiving it in a couple of weeks. I am ... | |
| CDP Upgrade Hammergjh - You certainly have more patience than I do; once I have "upgraditis" I can't wait for months to buy! Good for you - you are taking the time to audition all comers and buy the one that pleases your ears the most. Just to throw some more... | |
| Was your first cartridge relatively expensive? Well, here I am chiming in. :-) I really love my Teres 160/Moerch DP6/Zyx R100H system. I have not heard the VPI Scoutmaster so can make no comparison between the two tables, but have read posts by a lot of happy VPI owners, so I imagine either ta... | |
| New Cartridge for Morch DP-6, 12", Red Dot I have a Moerch 12" Blue Dot armwand; I use it with the Zyx R100H cartridge and love the combo. I believe the blue dot wand is heavier than the red dot so I am not sure if the Zyx (a very light cartridge) would work for you, but there are other Zy... | |
| Joan Baez - Do I just not get it? Thank you for that link, Fatparrot. I had no idea that she was still so active in humanitarian causes - and it looks as if I am missing more albums than I realized, too!Holly | |
| Joan Baez - Do I just not get it? I have almost every album that Joan Baez has made and had the privilege of seeing/hearing her in concert many years ago. I think her voice is wonderful and have great admiration for her courage and convictions "back in the day." I grew up in the 5... | |
| Bulk cable for 40 ft. runs Readster - I notice you don't have any Monster cables in your set up... (j/k)I still use some Monster optical and component cables, and will keep these in my HT set up, so I meant no insult to my fellow Monster cable users.Holly | |
| Bulk cable for 40 ft. runs Thank you for all of your suggestions. I ended up going to Blue Jeans Cable and getting a couple of 45 ft. terminated cables. Cheap enough (though the Canare Star Quad would have been cheaper.) I'm not expecting to have much of a sonic improvement... | |
| Bulk cable for 40 ft. runs How about this wire from Parts Express? http://www.partsexpress.com/pe/pshowdetl.cfm?&DID=7&Partnumber=100-947&ctab=4#TabsAbout $80 - lots cheaper than Canare or Kimber...Holly |
