| C12000 Owners! Help. Tube vs Solid State Question Most likely you are hearing the difference in your cabling or the 3db difference between RCA and balanced outputs. | |
| Cary SLP-98L DC or Cap Upgrade details All I can say is the SLP-98 F1 is killer. If you like music, it's the one. | |
| Level adjusting speaker drivers Unfortunately it's an indication that your loudspeakers are not cutting it. Even without any tone controls, all your music should sound great with no reason to adjust things. | |
| user poll on seperates vs integrated ....wondering what specifically about speaker choice would make you lean towards either separates or integrated? for reference, i use focal kanta 3 speakers. The Kanta 3 in a proper room certainly deserves the best. What specifically about spe... | |

| running 2 of the same amps into 1 pair of speakers [ first watt J2's] The con is that you are only using half the amp and half the power. If your speakers can be bi-amped, you can do the same thing and be using the whole amp/amps, you’ll have a setup that will have twice the power (3db) and using all channels. | |
| How can you evaluate a system with highly processed music? That is called the absolute sound.... yes that is very helpful, but you NEED to play the music you listen to. No good reason to buy a system that makes the music you listen to sound bad. | |
| Thinking about selling my Vincent 737 Your weak point is your loudspeakers. The Klipsch RF8000s are OK but you can do better. I'd keep the Vincent, it's a nice unit. Start shopping for something that sounds good to you. Upgrading your electronics won't get you much for your money. | |
