| I think I've made up my mind The truth is they don't want you to screw up the sound with a cable that doesn't mate well with their amp. So, they tell you to use MIT or it will void your warranty. I have heard Spectral with many other speaker cables and the amplifier worked ju... | |
| I think I've made up my mind How many of you believed Spectral when they said their amps would go into oscillation if you didn't use MIT speaker cable? | |
| Best way to test your system? I disagree, I believe music is mixed more accurately than movies and if you get the music to sound right then the movies will sound good too. | |
| what type of sand to use? I used washed sand in my speaker stands. | |
| Speaker stands with long legs and broad tops?? I don't think your speaker is designed to be used that way. It sounds like you need to add a sub. | |
| Sterophile's not so nice review of Bryston Do you actually believe reviewers buy equipment? Their equipment is either on long term or permanent loan. When a reviewer says he likes it so much he is going to buy it, you can bet it was a gift. In the late '90s a well known and trusted reviewe... | |
| Anyone use Next Acoustics room treatments? Foam is frequency selective. I have used ASC for years with excellent results. However, many audiophiles look for alternatives because ASC is expensive, but you get what you pay for. | |
| Successful ARC models "Prior ARC stuff had cheap caps, cheap RCAs..."Audio Research never used cheap parts. I have owned many Audio Research preamps including the SP-3A-1, SP-8, SP-8MKII, SP-9, LS-1, LS-2, SP-14, SP-11MKII and SP-15. All of these preamps were made with... | |
| Sterophile's not so nice review of Bryston I don't think so either.Stereophile reviews have never been very reliable, but they ARE very powerful. The sad part is they can make or break a company with their reviews. Come to think of it Bryston never did get great reviews. In fact they curre... | |
| Fleetwood Mac Thanks for the link to The Plant. I remember Elvin Bishop from the Paul Butterfield Blues Band. When he went on his own he was a regular in San Francisco. One place where he played alot was just off Union St. called The Cock's Inn. He always drew ... | |
| Tube Bias Adjustment and Tube Testing I quit using DeoxIt a long time ago because of the film it leaves behind. I prefer a good cleaner with no film such as cleaners available at the Shack. | |
| Noise at start-up of one mono-block I am not familiar with EH KT88s. They may need a little burn-in time to sound their best. Quicksilver has been selling Chinese KT88s for years. They sound very good. In fact I was considering Gold Lion reissues for my Dynaco MKIIIs, but all recomm... | |
| To bi-wire or not to bi-wire? Agreed, It has to do with the crossover and not all speakers with two sets of binding posts are designed for bi-wiring. However, I believe your B&W 804 Nautilus do benefit from bi-wiring. | |
| Any transport suggestions for AR DAC1? Krell md2? Why wouldn't you use the matching Audio Research transport? Aren't they designed to work together? | |
| Best power conditioner? First you must determine if you need a power conditioner. |
