| HiFi audio Fuse on a CD Transport Try it and report back. It's such a polarizing topic, so the answer always is YMMV. +1 | |
| Voltage divider/attenuator Regardless of the examples you’ve mentioned; with 10V in, you’ll end up with .909V out. Seems to me: the use of 50 (R1) and 12 (R2) Ohm resistors, giving a 1.94V output, would yield better results (sonically), 1V being kind of wimpy, fa... | |
| Kimber Cable Select Will the C2700 preamp translate warmth into the system using these cables...? You’ll undoubtedly have enough valves in your system, to tune the tone to your own tastes, especially: if you get a tubed CD player. ie: If things aren’t w... | |
| Kimber Cable Select @farne230 - Here's a way to select from a variety of Kimber's Kables, without having to purchase before auditioning: https://www.usedcable.com/catalogsearch/result/?q=kimber Use their Lending Library (providing you find... | |
| Comment about SS and Tubes The guys at Dahlquist designed the DQ-LP1 crossover, to mate a sub to their DQ-10 speakers. Being that their weren't a whole lot of self-powered subwoofers, back in the day; that little unit got a lot of application. I used o... | |
| Kimber Cable Select Something I noticed about Kimber, as I worked my way through their offerings: all had faithfulness/transparency to the music (ie: none warmer, cooler, more colored than another), but: the progression always yielded more in the way of ambience... | |
| Comment about SS and Tubes @cinqcepages - Two questions, in order of importance: Know a good carpenter? How big is your room? You have the makings of an excellent, actively bi-amped, sub-woofed system. There are a number of ways ... | |
| Kimber Cable Select Everything depends on whether you want your cables to transfer signals with no editorializing, or: to act as a tone control. I’ve been using both their KS-1130 and KS-1030s, in my system (on sources), over the past couple decades. ... | |
| Batteries in my Audioquest Colorado RCA interconnects @cinqcepages - While you have the batteries out: check them with a multimeter, for full, remaining voltage. After that many years, even without a load, batteries can lose output potential. No telling how minimal a voltage might s... | |
| stereo light @gsranch - Reaching out here, of late, has become like reaching into Forrest’s box of chocolates. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jPopF49yJr8 | |
| Flat speaker cables versus round core cables OF COURSE: my first post was a joke, EXCEPT for the fact that the Big Silver Oval proved the most neutral cable I’d auditioned. Given the plethora of cable construction methods and configurations extant, listening is the sole way to d... | |
| Flat speaker cables versus round core cables Couldn't decide between round and flat, so: I went for the middle and couldn't be happier (far as I know). ie: https://analysis.plus/product/big-silver-oval/ | |
| NRG The 5 Power Cable Never fails to amuse, when the resident, imitation intel (snort of derision) operative, quotes another fictitious character. ESPECIALLY about, "self-deception". HILARIOUS! | |
| How important is it to match tubes in a preamp? It's been 19 years. Whatta ya bet: he's resolved his issue? @oddiofyl - Enjoy that new Amplitrex (I'm jealous)! | |
| Veneer delamination Veneering companies need love too, right? Happy listening! |
