Cleaner AC Source for Better Sound Ah! the last thing I did should have been the first.Installed a High output Ulimate Outlet and did wonders on the grunge and noise.Really bought it for the surge and lightening protection and was rewarded with cleaner sound.And yes the Blue Circle... | |
The best CD Player for the money I agree with Khkenny.I used to have an Anthem CD-1.And I liked the benefit of a tube in the output,so I upgraded to the twin tube Audio Aero Prima 24/192.Excellent in all respects,but really excels in realismwhich is very hard to convey in a moder... | |
Which CD Players Are both Warm and Detailed Audio Aero Prima 24/192 .Smooth ,warm , detailed ,inviting.Also try Audio Analogue Maestro,or Granite Audio.All of these give great bang for the buck. | |

Sim Audio or Bryston 7b's? The Bryston 14b st is very new and they have a great warranty.However the Sim W-5 has endless power withfinesse that most big amps for low cost have troubleproviding.The Titan is a monster,hope your neighboursdon't live to close. | |
Audioquest Type 4+ -- BiWire cable ?? Yes,Chris what they are telling you is the straight line,They work excellent in both setups and are a steal for theprice.I used them bi-wired from a W-5 to 1.6 Maggies withno current shortage.Pete | |
AudioMeca vs. AudioAero vs. Electrocompaniet Whoa !! You can't begin to compare the Prima 24/192 withthe Capitole 24/192.There are many similarities,butthe price spread is huge.My Prima 24/192 is a greatimprovement from any other player I have owned or auditioned.What used to sound 'live' no... | |
What am I doing wrong? Can't find right CD player. Try an Anthem CD-1 ,if you can find one .It hasgreat resolution,staging and the added tube output,so you can alter the sound with different tubes to suityour liking.They are no longer in production but area steal used on A'gon for about $800.00 ,b... | |

Best Power Cord for Sims amps. I use a Blue Circle B-62.Keeps the W-5 sounding sweetand powerful. Does not alter rock solid imagery or detail.About $175.00 . | |
