| UP-OCC solid core copper for speaker cable Wow, I find it odd that a big improvement in sonics could be had by swapping out 24 inch long speaker cables. I'd suggest the the old DIY pair that noromance was using had developed some issues.At any rate, I've done the exact same thing, only it ... | |
| My Parasound A21 review and VS Emotiva XPA I've had 3 Emotiva products, including an amp that I compared with an A21. Emotiva is certainly not the equal of Halo amps any way you want to slice it. The point is, Emotiva is out there claiming that they are High End and why pay more, and once ... | |
| Are HDMI cables hot swapable? If you unplug a USB drive without "ejecting" it first, it's problematic, which is why you're supposed to eject it BEFORE removing it. Unplugging a HDMI cable while in use doesn't make sense, you're killing the handshake and video in mid stream, pl... | |
| Are HDMI cables hot swapable? Never do it. I don't know why someone would even try such a risky move. | |
| Experience going from Morrow MA-1 to MA-3? I've been trying some different kinds of music, and old stuff from Ella Fitzgerald to Bob Dylan, and that extra detail really makes it enjoyable. It makes me want to upgrade the speaker cables now, but I need winter tires! | |
| Emotiva I would not get a current Sony product. As for the rest, it depends on your budget, the UPA-700 is not a strong amp, the amp section in the old Sony can probably hit more wpc than the little 700. If it was me I'd consider the Denon X4000, which is... | |
| Let's play the "what if" game Zavato, I'm sorry to hear of the difficulties, no doubt it hasn't been an easy time. But with an excellent system like that, what you hear must be indeed enjoyable. The only thing I can think of is cabling. You do have a variety of different cable... | |
| Experience going from Morrow MA-1 to MA-3? Hmm, I've heard good things about Clear Day cables, thanks for the tip. I know what you mean about metal domes! | |
| Experience going from Morrow MA-1 to MA-3? Harshness has been a pet peeve of mine as when I first got my current speakers I didn't realize they could be forward and bright sounding with the wrong electronics/cabling. I should say currently I have Paradigm Sig 6 version 2 speakers and Paras... | |
| Experience going from Morrow MA-1 to MA-3? I had need of two sets of IC's in my system, and had a MA-1 pair and an MA-3. Mind you, I've got better than lamp cord for speaker wire too. I replaced the MA-1 for another MA-3 with Eichmann silver bullets, and I'm now getting a depth to my sound... | |
| Morrow Audio Cables Uh, the Clarity Organics IC's go for $1400 a pair, the Morrow MA6 $999. Looks like you sample expensive cables every so often. I think most of us can't or won't spend that kind of money on cabling. Nice to know there's more detail to be had, but I... | |
| Morrow Audio Cables Which Morrows did you get that impression from? And comparing to? I'd be interested in knowing from a price comparison level, but my impression so far is that Morrow is much cheaper than the retail based companies until you get into Morrows top 2 ... | |
| Paradigm speakers I've got the S6 in a 2 channel system, as well as a pair of Monitor 7 v3. I do think they punch above their weight. They are not the only good speaker manufacturer, however. IMO, as you get into the higher end you'll find that speakers can produce... | |
| A heads up Yeah, I don't think you can get an AVR for 150, or at least a real one. For that kind of money you might as well just use the TV speakers and smile at the 150 you saved.My AVR was about $1000 and it's 5 years old. It sounds really good and since I... | |
| Parasound A21 vs Bryston 4bsst 2 A .5 decibel is not detectible above 40-50 db, sometimes we imagine we can hear differences because the meter says so. |
