| PSB Stratus Silver i's I owned Silver i's about 3-4 years ago. For the price, they are hard to beat. I then purchased Gold i's and now Legacy speakers. Each step is better, of course, but lots more money. Preferred the silvers over anything in their price range and I li... | |
| Audio Magic "Transcendence" I have listened and purchased their new Stealth XXX conditioner with filter matching capabilities. It is THE BEST conditioner I have ever owned. The others I've owned (expensive ones) were sold at a great loss. This one will never leave my system.... | |
| bi-wire question External biwiring is the best by far. This keeps the highs and lows separated. In the case of internal biwires, in most cases, the highs and lows are too close to each other in the cable jacket. | |
| Bass traps. ASC Bass Traps for my subwoofer?? The traps are made to help with boominess. To allow the bass to be clearer and less boomy. I just read an article in Home Theatre and they recommend a product from Auralex called the Subdude platform. It "floats" your subwoofer on foam and correct... | |
| DVI Inputs & Outputs DVI is video only. Run your DVI cable from box to monitor(tv). Run your audio cables or digital audio cable into your receiver. | |
| Comments on Synergistic Research Res. Ref. FX ? I purchased the Resolution Reference X2 cables recently. Great sounding from top to bottom. Prefer them to all previous SR cables and also over Nordost Quatro Fils. Never heard the Vahalla (too expensive). I only wished I purchased a longer pair. | |
| Soundtracks that ROCK The Punisher. Rock and roll. | |
| Picture problems with DLP TV. I have the Samsung 50" DLP. No better picture than what they achieve through DVI and Component. Try this. Set your regular non-hi def channels to operate on their 4:3 ratio, but still run it through your DVI input. I have Direct TV and mine looks ... | |
| Who makes the best passive volume control? I've had the Adcom 750 and the Placette remote volume control. Placette is a little better, but the Adcom provides more features and inputs/outputs and for the money is the best deal in audio. | |
| Power Amp Tweaking Get a good amp stand and cones. I also use a Bright Star sand box under mine. Sounds great. | |
| Mark Knopfler's Ragpickers Dream-heard it? I am a die hard Dire Straits fan and did enjoy Knopfler's last two solo releases. Though the quality of Ragpicker's Dream is excellent, I didn't really care for this release. Looking forward to the next one though. | |
| Adcom GFP-750 pre with Bryston 4BST amp works? I had this combo for one year and it sounds great. I prefer the preamp in active mode though. Just upgraded to 4BSST and it is even better. Have to spend a lot more to get better. | |
| Best support for Meridian 508.24 CD player? I've had my 508.24 for about 7 months now. I've tried various isolation products and found the DH Labs large cones and pads on top of Bright Star sand filled shelf is the best by far. Little more detail. Better, tighter bass. Not boomy at all. Hop... | |
| MIT Z Center vs PS Audio Ultimate Outlet? I've had both. The Z center has the ability to isolate your preamp, DAC, and CD player. Can only handle medium size amps. A great product. The ultimate outlet cannot isolate your components. It is recommended to have one for preamp, one for digita... | |
