SIlver Cable Experiences? Silver works in my system, I use Kimber kcag and kctg. Smooth and extremely transparant. I've never used silver speaker cables. My system prob. leans towards warm with a tube cj preamp - I like copper too, however, silver in the right system is so... | |
Looking for additional cable ideas... Another vote for Goertz MI 2's, I did a home audition and never sent them back. They have a coherence from top to bottom that is beautiful in my system. I am using between Classe amp and Thiel 3.6's, they add a slight bloom, or richness, but with ... | |
ATTN: Kimber Select Owners How do the selects sound versus kcag or kctg? anyone done a direct comparison? | |
How to keep housemates from using your rig? Louisville Slugger - wood, not aluminum...trust me | |
Best used DAC 500 or less, need help Check out a Meridian 263 or 563. You can get the first for well under 500 - just as important is the cable. Illuminati D60 is excellent and used by many but there are other good ones to... | |
Suggested Cables for McCormack DNA-2 to Thiel CS6s Bundy, I have classe ca200 to 3.6's and currently using alpha core goertz M 2's. They are copper and are heads and shoulders above kimber 8tc, MIT 750, and coincident in my system. | |
Need recommendations on cables? Lcat,before I take the time to demo the cables you mentioned, please tell me what a modern cable sounds like. In my system the alpha core goertz offers clarity, transparancy, a terrific smoothness and for me balance - that transcends time for me. ... | |
Need recommendations on cables? I agree with SDCampbell - I own both and when I put goertz M-2's between Classe and Thiel I truely believe I'm done for a long time with speaker cables... | |
Substitute for a Conrad-Johnson Premier 3 preamp I agree - get a premier 14 - it's a great preamp. | |
Tube pre-amp with SS Classe Amp I'm using a CJ premier 14 with Mullard tubes and a ca200 and the combo is very satisfying, using thiel 3.6's. Classe and CJ are a good combo - lots of dealers carry both lines. | |
what preamp to acompany my conrad johnson mv55? Shahens, if you can stretch (isn't that always the way!) go for a premier 14, can be had for around 2,000 or maybe less on the used market, the pv10 is also a giant killer but not in the premier line at CJ - good luck! | |
All in the Family What about the Osmonds, and the Partridge Family - the Brady Bunch recorded some pretty good stuff also :-) | |
How much should I spend on cd transport Transports make a huge difference - I found out when my Meridian 200 was sent in for repair and I sustituted a Rotel 855. The meridian is much more refined, smoother - a digital cable is also extremely important. My transport also reacts to power ... | |
Noise From New Tubes Try switching the tubes in the sockets, this has worked for me in the past - the pv10 is a little noisy anyway but not excessively so... | |
Lower gain in left channel. Some music is recorded that way, you'll notice a difference on some recordings from song to song... |
