| New expensive power cord for amp and no change in sound? I see a number of threads which are of a subject that I have a great interest in and when I click on it it has been deleted. I always wonder if a manufacturer has complained because their product came off badly. But then everybody's experience is ... | |
| New expensive power cord for amp and no change in sound? Yes my amp is a stereo Pass 250.8 and the manufacturer said don’t bother. I originally had a $500 going into the Pass and replaced it with the expensive cord. I don’t think my system is entry level. Maybe mid. I am going to place the expensive cor... | |
| For those familiar with Sonus Faber I have an Arc ref 10 and a pass 250.8. So I’ve already spent a lot of money there. I was also looking at the Maxima Amators but one woofer? What are massed strings and brass going to sound like? I listen to many types of music. I do not have a la... | |
| For those familiar with Sonus Faber Thanks to all. | |
| Am I right for this forum? If you are happy with your system, if the sound fills you with passion and immerses you in the joy or sadness of the music and you want to keep listening to it all the time without getting fatigued and have to pull yourself away from it when respo... | |
| Buying Used Speakers I had an excellent experience with buying used. They were sent freight the seller including the freight in purchase price which were demos at half price. Arrived in beautiful condition. And sounded great. Went totally on reviews. I had no choice b... | |
| Your thoughts on best audiophile speakers in $10,000 neighborhood? Buy used. You could get a pair of beautiful speakers for that much money. Read reviews(not only Stereophile!) and what people have to say on this and other chat sites. You have to spend this kind of money to get great quality in audio(pace that ot... | |
| power cord for pass 250.8 Are the Xangsane DIY? | |
| power cord for pass 250.8 Well the Xangsane is comparably affordable and has a 90 day return period so maybe worth a try. Though could it be comparable to a Shunyata Research Sigma V2 or an Audioquest Dragon or Nordost TYR 2? I'm looking at the long term here. But these ot... | |
| Power Cable Audioquest Dragon vs Isotek EVO3 Ascension Yes this is a concern of mine. But I usually look at how many positive reviews a seller has. I bought a Shunyata research on Us Audiomart and there was a noticeable improvement. I mean when they say it's a demo is it? | |
| power cord for pass 250.8 Does anybody have any response to what bojack says? Or is this a controversy that goes back to before the flood? | |
| power cord for pass 250.8 Thanks for your recommendation. To be honest I have been looking at these two from the comments on Audiogon. Have you heard both? I read that the Dragon is a significant step up from the Hurricane. Do you find this to be the case? Worth the money? | |
| Handling Heavy Amps I just got a 100lb amp. The delivery guy brought it into my apartment and I took it out of the box and put it on the bottom shelf of my stereo rack. I'm in my 60s and managed it fine. I was worried. To be honest I'm having a senior moment and don'... | |
| Power cable Advice... I'm thinking of going from Mackenzie interconnects to Earth between my amp and pre. Do you honestly believe it is all snake oil and any difference I hear is the placebo effect? But then we are talking about audio and not medicine so isn't the plac... | |
| Interconnects Well I won't be able to tell until I get my new amp really. But I was wondering what people who have used Mackenzies in the past found improved when they upgraded interconnects or have they stayed with this level of Audioquest and found no level o... |
