| Looking for small size CD player Take a look at the "elekit" here on audiogon. its a kit so you have to build it yourself, but looks like fun! 360.00 new. i don't know anything about it, I just saw it in an ad. It looks pretty small, maybe just the ticket. | |
| Any vinyl experts out there? Try raising the arm a notch, if the cartridge is slanted towards the rear it can cause the bass to be too heavy. | |
| Help Finding my system bright... Hi Macd, i see that there is a Decware ZSLA-1 tube buffer pre for sale on audiogon right now for 275.00 it is intended to be used between CD and amp to match impedences and warm up digital sound. i don't know the seller, just saw it today. You cou... | |
| After some upgrades, where is the weak link Wow! Nice system. If you go to Decware website, Steve has written many papers on room acoustics. He states that 50% of sound is from components and the other 50% is the room that they are in and how they interact together. You might have standing ... | |
| Does biwiring change impedence? Maybe he was talking about strapping two stereo amps to mono and using one amp for each speaker. When you strap a stereo amp to mono the load it sees from the speaker is cut in half. | |
| recommended 6922 tubes for a moderate price? Call Andy at Vintage Tube Services, I bought a pair of Japanese made 6922 from him that were very good. Plus, he tests the hell out of them so no duds. | |

| mono versus stereo ampflication If you give an audio engineer $3000.00 and ask him to build a stereo amp and then ask him to build mono blocks of the same design, most of the money will be spent on the TWO chassis and the extra power cord, etc.etc. etc. when building the mono's,... | |

| Anyone use a sub with Reference 3A DaCapo i Hi, Put something under the stands or something between the speakers and the stands and see if raising the speakers makes a difference before buying new stands. You might be sitting in a null point, try moving your chair forward or backwards and s... | |
| Anyone use a sub with Reference 3A DaCapo i Hi, I used a TBI Magellan VI with mine and they were a perfect match. There is a TBI magellan VIII on audiogon which is larger than the one I used but should be a good match also. I don't know the seller just saw them come up. These are some of th... | |
| Little bit "forward" sound - what cables to avoid? Are you using any sound treatments for the room? Diffuse the first reflection point on the side walls and see what happens. Also try different toe-in positions on your speakers and move seat forward or back some and see what happens. | |
