| Power Cords I’ve listened for two days now. I try very hard not to say one component is better than another one; but instead describe the differences I’m hearing. First, I submit my system is neutral and if it leans from neutral, most would say it leans to th... | |
| Power Cords Thanks for all of the recommendations. I'm trying Shunyata again for several days. I'll post my thoughts tomorrow. | |
| Has anyone made the jump to $uper High end and were disappointed? If I had the money, I would spend whatever I thought was necessary to get the sound that I prefer. I would do it for me, just as I suspect most people do. This is a passion that most of us enjoy on our own, with family, or other audiophiles. I sub... | |
| Has anyone made the jump to $uper High end and were disappointed? I just read a post on another forum, "Jeff's Getting a New Stereo". The Jeff is Jeffrey Fritz Editor-in-Chief of SoundStage. After several years he's looking to downgrade from a seriously expensive system. Don't get me wrong, by any standards he's... | |
| No-one talks about Rowlands anymore I've already stated that I really love my JR 625 S2 amp. I hear a lot of talk about how bad their preamps are, but to date I haven't found anything to replace my JR preamp within its price range. Maybe I'm one of those people that enjoys the Jeff ... | |
| Wilson Sasha 2 Pre owned? I wish someone would have told me to look at different options when I first got into "high-end". I agree with Dave, we should encourage people to look a several options. | |
| Power Cords auxinput,I submit Monitor Audio series II speakers are neutral compared to their series I. To my "ears", in my room, with my equipment, I find the PL500s chameleon like. Several people from Audiogon have been to my house to listen to my system. I ... | |
| Power Cords I use the Marantz and HT bypass on my Corus preamp to drive my fronts for surround sound when watching television and movies. I have a ATI 3-channel amp to drive my center and rears speakers. | |
| Power Cords My 2-channel system: Monitor Audio PL 500 speakers, Jeff Rowland 625 S2 amplifier, Jeff Rowland Corus preamp, Antipodes DS GT music server, Chord Dave DAC , JL Audio F112 V2. All inter-connect cables are Wireworld Platinum. Speaker cable is Wirewo... | |
| Power Cords auxinput,I agree that how power cords are terminated is important. That's why my Silver Electra cables have upgraded Platinum plugs. | |
| Power Cords I should add, after my audition I'm no longer considering replacing all of my cords. I'm convinced the right cord on my DAC and amplifier or power conditioner will provide the change I'm seeking. | |
| Power Cords bo1972,I honestly appreciate your input, NOW A BIG BUT. As much as I love my Monitor Audio PL-500's, there are speakers that I prefer over them. They are more expensive than the PL-500's, but my point is I don't want to get into this what you reco... | |
| Power Cords Blindjim,Thanks so much very taking the time to provide such a detailed to response. My plans are to get a home audition of Audioquest, Audience, and the Shunyata Alpha NR. Although only for one day, inserting the Shunyata Sigma NR erased any doub... | |
| Power Cords Lets not turn another thread into back and forth arguing! I'm open to any suggestions under $3K for a 2M cord. | |
| Power Cords I only had one day to evaluate the power cords and I've already returned them. He loaned me two cords. I used one on my amp and the other on my DAC. Both cords were to short to use on my power conditioner. The dealer agreed to allow me to try them... |
