| Sophia 2 with Plinius? Without a doubt this will work well, we tried the Plinius with Sasha's from a Wadia 781 direct at the weekend, bass was well controlled but full and fluent. Compared it with Krell 202/402 and it was no disgrace, so try it..Ps. | |
| Wadia 581 SE vs 781 If you are in no hurry wait for the 981. | |
| An honest opinion about upgrading? For definition and clarity, maybe worth thinking about the mains installation, and running your system from a balanced isolating transformer, i.e. equitech, well respected in the us. This made quite a difference to mine, i was happy overall tonall... | |
| Most musical integrated amp you have heard? ASR Emitter 2 Exclusive. My old Naim set up (252/300) was miles off so i'm surprised to see them mentioned here.Though not integrated i know.. | |
| CD Cases I got them from here in the UK,they do a good service and about 40 pence each...http://www.superjewelbox.co.uk/index.htmThere is a US link also:http://www.superjewelbox.com/?pagina=homeCheaper than replacing discs, so well worth it imo.. | |
| Infinity Circuit Breaker CBF Filtering RF/EMI Business must be good if he's sending checks back because 'it's not worth it'?? If he's still in business get a friend to order one? | |
| Power Cord CDP Termination My advice here is not to bother, the difference sonically would be minimal, the cost could be better spent on a different cdp.Best,Ps | |
| ASR Emitter II Exclusive question Rym,Interesting product, did you try it underneath? I will see if i can source one for trial, also their other products could be interesting?RegardsPs | |
| Which power cord more important? Get one you can afford and try it on the cd first, then swap it to your amp. Leave it where you like it most. I suspect you will hear more improvement, depending on the geometry/connectors/conductors/connections on the CDP. Ps | |
| ASR Emitter II Exclusive question Hi Guys,Ale, Glad to hear you are enjoying your Emitter as well.The RCA leads i am using match the effortles bandwidth nature of the Emitter so well, the Valhalla and Audioplan's were good/excellent, but this one i build myself opens up the lower ... | |
| RCA Caps Thanks for the replies gents, i dont use them at present, but only use 1 input on my Asr, so considered them but maybe ill stop fiddling for a while and buy a cd instead.Regards,Ps | |
| Bananas Vs Spades??? Yes, this is the main drawback of using bare copper, it oxidises fairly rapidly. We can therefore assume that the signal will degrade over time also. A gold plated end sleeve will prevent this, but how to get a good connection with these? I do fee... | |
| ASR Emitter II Exclusive question Rym,Pleased you are enjoying your Emitter 11 too..Any other Asr user's here? Paul. | |
| ASR Emitter II Exclusive question Yes Tony, leave it in standby.. Let us know how you get on with ic's. My test set are getting better, i'll swap back to the Valhalla next week and report back on changes.Cheers,Paul. | |
| ASR Emitter II Exclusive question Yes, the direct input is well worth using, it is substantial, even though through the input selector relays it is still fabulous. I have tried several rca's, from Audioplan(excellent), Harmonic Tech(nice but just ok), Transparent(dead),to Valhalla... |
