| Vibration Control and the Townshend Audio Seismic Pods You guys need to try the Critical Mass footers. It was really an eye (ear) opener. Huge soundstage and such a natural sound improvement.I ended up selling all my Stillpoints and springs, which helped pay for the footers. (They are a bit pricey).Pu... | |
| What sends shivers down your spine when you play it on your system? Rod Stewart- "What Do You Want Me To Do".Not so much in sonic quality but the message in the song.ozzy | |
| Control volume with DAC or Preamp? I think it depends on the Dac.I used to own the PS Audio Direct Stream Dac. Running direct to my amps it was a bit anemic.Now that I own the Lumin X1 it sounds waayyy better running direct to the amps. I ended up selling my Ayre preamp. Which hel... | |
| Acoustic Revive RR-77, 777, 888 Schumann Generator roxy54,Looks like a good unit to try, I thought of placing an order, but it looks like it might not be sent until February 2021!ozzy | |
| Is a balanced XLR cable inherently less critical than a single ended RCA one? I have a Cerious Matrix (3M) balanced cable that I am thinking of putting up for sale within your price range. If you would be interested send me a PM.ozzy | |
| Is a balanced XLR cable inherently less critical than a single ended RCA one? I was responding to the OP. All I can relate to is my cable journey.ozzy | |
| Acoustic Revive RR-77, 777, 888 Schumann Generator I own a RR77, 777, and a 888. When they are turned off the soundstage closes in somewhat. Hard to explain, hard to believe, but they are effective.ozzy | |
| PS Audio Power Plant 15........ Break in... ? the op said it was a dealer demo, so it probably has many hours of playing time. But, it may need time to settle in its new environment. (perhaps a few hours).I owned many iterations of PS Audio power conditioners, when I switched to... | |
| Is a balanced XLR cable inherently less critical than a single ended RCA one? Yes, balanced cables do make a difference. And, each one has its own signature sound. As you progress up the ladder of better and more sensitive equipment the differences in cable is apparent.ozzy | |
| Does it matter the wire gauge used in interconnects? Thanks grannyring for the additional information. Since I have already ordered the materials I will try a single run first. Perhaps later I will try the dual runs.ozzy | |
| Does it matter the wire gauge used in interconnects? Interesting, I may try my hand on the double helix method grannyring refers to.But, then I also agree with auxinput comments about using too thick of wire aggregate. Thus my original question.ozzy | |
| Does it matter the wire gauge used in interconnects? Mitch2,Thank you for that information.Nonoise, Yes I believe using oversized tubing is a plus.grannyring,I already ordered 60 feet of .9999 20 gauge soft silver wire along with oversized PTFE tubing. To keep the cost down, can I also then add 60 ... | |
| Does it matter the wire gauge used in interconnects? grannyring,Thank you for chiming in. I don't understand why doubling up the cable is better than just using a heavier gauge wire? And, I need 10 foot lengths.ozzy | |
| NEW Cerious Technologies Upgrade - Graphene Matrix Cables I must say Bob's Cerious Matrix cables are awesome! I have been trying to find a better cable and the Matrix always are the best!ozzy | |
| Does it matter the wire gauge used in interconnects? twoleftears,Thanks for that info. I have tried Duelund wire, and although its good , soft solid .9999 silver wire is better. At least IMHO.ozzy |
