| PS Audio BHK Pre Amp and Herron VTPH-2A Phono Pre Users I had a long talk with Keith. He suggested I run the 3A into a BHK RCA input (I thought of that, but I didn’t want to deal with two remotes). He also suggested, if I was OK with the sound, to then run the 3A into the BHK HT input, so I wouldn’t h... | |
| PS Audio BHK versus Herron VTSP-3A(ro2) @dodgealum Thanks for the feedback on the RCA length. | |
| PS Audio BHK Pre Amp and Herron VTPH-2A Phono Pre Users I’ll do that. Thanks for you help. | |
| PS Audio BHK Pre Amp and Herron VTPH-2A Phono Pre Users @tomic601 Thanks for the suggestion. Under other circumstances, I'd give it due consideration. I'm in the midst of home remodeling, which includes removing a wall to expand the depth of my listening room and moving my stereo equipment from betw... | |
| PS Audio BHK Pre Amp and Herron VTPH-2A Phono Pre Users Honestly, I don't for sure. My runs will be about 15' each. Everything that I've read suggests XLR cables are best for runs like that. | |
| PS Audio BHK Pre Amp and Herron VTPH-2A Phono Pre Users @three_easy_payments You are. With a more direct title and question, I was hoping to get a definitive answer.I'm OK buying a different phono pre as a last resort, but I'd like to find out if I'm doing something wrong or if there's any way to get... | |
| PS Audio BHK versus Herron VTSP-3A(ro2) I do have an spl, but I am not looking for scientific proof. In this case, my ears tell me there's a big difference in the sound with the BHK. There's also a difference with the Herron, but it's not as much and it is in reverse. My concern is t... | |
| PS Audio BHK versus Herron VTSP-3A(ro2) With the Herron, I'm using SE all the way. With the BHK, its SE from the phono pre and balanced from the DSD. I've noticed the Herron streaming sound is warmer and the BHK sound is more nuanced and detailed. Whenever I change a component, I pla... | |
| HDMI i2s Cable I’ve been listening to my favorite jazz and old school R&B songs for most of the afternoon. I can honestly say the SQ with the Matrix is clearly better than USB from the Zenith or Ethernet from my switch. I hear more details in the music wit... | |
| HDMI i2s Cable Thanks for the advice. I got the Matrix today. It's powered by a Small Green Computer linear power supply. It's hooked up and working. I had to change Roon from "Low" to "Normal" latency, and I was using Roon with LMS Lite - I had to set it ba... | |
| HDMI i2s Cable Sorry, I was being facetious. I understand a regular cable will work, and the cables I mentioned are only designed for i2s use. I am leaning towards one of the TUBULUS or Phasure HDMI cables because they are purpose built. My dealer lets me aud... | |
| HDMI i2s Cable I'm so confused TUBULUS Argentus website: The TUBULUS Argentus i2s cable hdmi is specifically designed for i2s LVDS signal transport and therefor is not suitable as a standard HDMI TV cable. The TUBULUS Libentus i2s cable V2 is specifically ... | |
| HDMI i2s Cable @auxinput. Thanks for the advice. When it comes to i2s, I’ve read that shorter is better. The Matrix will be close enough to the DSD for a .5 meter cable. I’ll be running a WW Starlight USB from an Innous Zenith to the Matrix and somebody’s HDMI c... | |
| HDMI i2s Cable @docroasty. Thanks for the info. I'll look into phasure. | |
