| Schiit's solid-state 6SN7 They offer a fifteen day, money-back, trial period. At least it would be a low-risk experiment*, for the, "curious". *No poxes, just postage | |
| Schiit's solid-state 6SN7 That had to be one of the funniest, Seinfeld run-on, jokes ever aired. | |
| Well I joined the Silversmith FIDELIUM Speaker cable club today It's a shame that so many of these threads devolve rather than serving as a resource based on real world experience for those seeking to learn about products they may wish to audition. ... | |
| Dedicated AC Circuits: It's not the noise, it's the upstream problems @ozzy - While you’re at it, also check the connections in the breaker box. I was surprised that a couple of mine were not fully tightened down. ozzy Some folks neglect to come back in a little while to retighten connections, after a new ... | |
| Best Type of Interconnect for Turntable? Make that, "TOO many variables..." Need to proofread/proof-read/proof read, now and then! | |
| Best Type of Interconnect for Turntable? What you pick for a phono cable (for the best sound), should be determined by the type of cartridge chosen (MC/MM/MI) and that cart's specific loading requirements*. To many variables for any specific advice, until you narrow the field ... | |
| 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... |
