| Synergistic Red Fuse ... ^^^ Thanks, Al & Charles. On a side note ... who put Meth in the Clemson football team's Gatorade? Next week, Clemson vs Alabama. It gonna be a war. | |
| Synergistic Red Fuse ... Charles ...I stopped listening to Miles when he entered the "fusion" era. One of my favorite miles album is the original mono release on Columbia that I found in a used record store back in the early 70's. I think that's the era the author was all... | |
| Synergistic Red Fuse ... missti ..I read an interesting article recently about Chet Baker. The author made the assertion that Miles Davis spent his entire career chasing Chet Baker's tone ... and never quite captured it. After reading the article, I can hear the author's... | |
| Synergistic Red Fuse ... Happy New Year to all of you who have taken the time to contribute to this very enjoyable thread. Its been a real pleasure for me to meet so many dedicated audiophiles here on A'gon. Here's to a great and positive 2017. | |
| Pani ... New ART-9 up and running ... ^^^Give it some time. It really starts to open up at 50 hours and continues to improve from there. Also, have you experimented with VTA? | |
| Synergistic Red Fuse ... I don't care for technical jargon ... I just like to listen to music through a highly resolving music system. When the fuses are installed in the "wrong" direction the system sounds out of phase. Turn the fuse around and the image locks in with a ... | |
| Synergistic Red Fuse ... ^^^ Charles ... I like to do a little at a time in order to gauge the improvement (or degradation) with each step in the "tweaking" process. I've been in the process of replacing the stock ARC dampening rings with Herbie dampeners. This is not a ... | |
| Synergistic Red Fuse ... I detest charlatans and snake oil salesmen too. That's why when I discover a product that works, like SR Black fuses and Herbie's tube dampeners, I like to spread the word. | |
| Synergistic Red Fuse ... ^^^ *lol*Hey, didn't we solve the directional thingie a while back in this thread with Warren Gehl's input about wire extrusion? | |
| Pani ... New ART-9 up and running ... ^^^At least 50 hours of break-in before you'll be convinced. Then ... Zowie. | |
| Synergistic Red Fuse ... David Prichard ....Its wonderful to see your return David. The best to you and your Mom. She's a very fortunate woman to have a son such as yourself, David. So many children of our advanced Seniors won't expend the time, finances or energy until t... | |
| Synergistic Red Fuse ... I texted David early this morning to wish him a Merry Christmas. He responded, so he's still around. I think he's been swamped at work. Frank | |
| Synergistic Red Fuse ... nonoise ...I have a "friend" like that too. The last time he heard my system, I had to endure two hours of him telling me how crappy my system sounded. Some folks just have no social filter, I guess. Funny thing is, we both have the same model of ... | |
| Synergistic Red Fuse ... ^^^ When Michael Fremer did his factory tour of the Audio Research plant, part of the tour was a visit into ARC's listening room and an interview with ARC's chief listener Warren Gehl. Part one: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=a58bDqQQ-xYPart t... | |
| Synergistic Red Fuse ... Grannyring ...I have a friend who does exactly what you suggested with hard-wiring. I haven't heard his system as he lives in Utah and I live in California. But, he tells me about these improvements all the time. In fact, he's the friend who chan... |
