| Differential from source to pre but not amp? Balanced from pre-amp to amp gives you much of the "benefit" of balanced circuitry. The source component is not as critical - IME. | |
| How do you rip CDs on a new version mac mini? How could one possibly rip their entire cd collection using a single drive? It would take far too long. Running 5 at once seams more suited to the task. | |
| Why CD players will never be dead I'll wait for on demand streaming downloads to mature into a viable option. No way, never in my lifetime will I rip 1000's of cds onto a hard drive. Till then I will continue to enjoy rotating cd players of different sonic merits. Modifying each t... | |

| HELP-woofer moves alot when playing lps You can reduce the size of the ports with some cut foam strips (assuming your handy). This will increase the damping factor and reduce the pumping. A peripheral turntable platter clamp may also help. A subsonic filter did not have any affect in my... | |

| Capacitors in Cary PH302 phono amp +1 to the above post.Also,To the left of the Mundorf appears to be a Cary "Audio One" oil capacitor (the long silver cap). That has to go, along with the Solens that are probably bypassing the nearby electrolytic caps. | |
| Capacitors in Cary PH302 phono amp Tobes,I would buy a roll of automotive gasket material (the grey multi-ply sheet) Cut a square and stand it up between the capacitor and tube. In a tube cd player mod that I installed Mundorf caps close to the tubes. The gasket material blocked th... | |

| Capacitors in Cary PH302 phono amp Tobes, high quality capacitors such as the Mundorf silver-oil in a relativly small 1uf value generally are not "candidates" for bypass as already they perform at a high level. However, this is a hobby and I encourage you to experiment. How else ar... |
