| Interconnect cable upgrade disapointment Joe, you have very nice components and in my experience if you don't hear a difference right away good or bad, hours of waiting aren't going to change it....IMHO. I've owned alot of cables and I have never experienced the phenomenon of significant... | |
| Time to change. But to what? Johnny, I hear you! I've always been a fan of mirage. I almost went that route with the M-3si and ended up with Thiel. I like the robust sound you describe and get that when I switch from Kimber Select to MIT's.I'm currently auditioning 1030's wit... | |
| Time to change. But to what? Johnny, my problem with Thiels is this, 3.6's have been my speaker now for about 9 years and I don't know what I would ever go to. When fed right which I've done the resolution and coherence is addicting. Your right though you have to work a littl... | |
| Time to change. But to what? Hey Audphile, I'm on it, just sounded like you might know. Have you considered Thiel. Sounds like you have a large room and Thiels sound so open and transparent with about 9 to 10 feet between them. | |
| Time to change. But to what? Anyone know the pricing on the Cardersounds? | |
| Capri to the monoblocs 501, which cables? I've been through tons of cables and have settled on Kimber Select 1011, nice body and texture, very smooth. On my system, YMMV but worth checking out. Portrayal of strings is very good, and acoustic guitar very nice timbre.ARC PH 5 to CJ Premier ... | |
| characteristics between these I'll second the response with Hero, good solid cable that maintains air and space in the soundstage. I also have to put in a vote for Kimber PBJ in terms of clarity and air. A good combination for me is Kimber Select 1011 upstream and PBJ between ... | |
| Good Copper IC's for 2.5M RCA pre to amp? Kimber Select 1011 is rich in spades, I find 1 run is perfect and 2 is too much. | |
| Steve Winwood Nine Lives lp I agree Stltrains! | |
| John Mellencamp "Life,Death,Love....." I've got the vinyl, nothing special, a little dark sounding and mushy. | |
| McIntosh MC402 or MC501's for Totem Mani-2 Kirkus, I can't imagine moving an amp any heavier than the 501's! You must have scar tissue in your back!The problem for one is the amps are like boulders, compact with no handles to grip. | |
| McIntosh MC402 or MC501's for Totem Mani-2 I agree with Arthur....I have the 501's and compared them to the 402. Both were excellent sounding amps, the 501's had just a little more presence in the midrange area but they were really close. I chose 501's because I really wanted monoblocks an... | |
| Kimber 8TC or NBS King/Serpent speaker cables Ndfan, save yourself some serious money and try Kimber 8TC before shelling out big bucks for speaker cable. You might be surprised, alot of people are. | |
| Gingko vs 4" Maple Platform Maple under my TT was a big improvement for the money, a mere $80 Boos maple cutting board from Williams-Sonoma. | |
| Where to buy vinyl? I don't know where you live but your probably surrounded. Take a road trip with a GPS and you will be surprised how many music stores have boatloads of new and used records. Especially if you live near colleges. |
