Small quality HiFi subs reaching 22Hz Frank, for what you describe, I ended my search with a pair of Definitive Technology Super Cube II's.Try to find a dealer to hear them, you'll know what I mean.Oh yeah, they're affordable too, great value. | |

Will computer to DAC replace transports and cdp's? Sound Quality Question :Example, $950.00 and I get an Off-Ramp Turbo, get everything set up correctly to my Dac, will it sound "as good or better" than my belt-drive CEC ? | |
What can come after Apogee Divas ? There are some alternatives, but you might regret selling them.For example, how often a pair of Scintillas come up here.When they do, watch how fast they dissapear, usually less than a day and 50 views or so.I'm not downing other speakers, but Apo... | |
How to upgrade a nondetachable power cord? Very well said Brad, measure twice, cut once !You can always take it off, but you can't put it back on.Alanbrain, look for a Furutech IEC, they are very nice quality and offer a coice of set screw terminals or solder-on tabs for the internal wiring. | |

Need to upgarde the preamp for my Ayre V3 I'd go for an Audio Research LS-5 Mk 2 Balanced.There's one for sale on the Gon for 2K, but it's a 220/240 version that needs to be converted, not too big a deal, I'm sure Audio Research could help, or you could wait for a U.S. listing. | |
Herbie's Grungebuster 2 CD Mat vs Marigo's 3-D Sig This is what I use with my CEC transport and it works better than all the other gadgets I tried :A Herbies Grungebuster SP (self adhesive) CD Mat adhered to the bottom side of the puck. Also, a Van Art Speak "De Mat" is placed on the CD itself bef... | |

Rat Shck Presidian 40-5053. Next Sonic Impact? Eldartford, you happen to be correct.Not to hi-jack this thread, but I'm running "two-pairs" of the older Optimus Pro 7AV's (stacked line-array style) in the big rig for a while, with a pair of Super Cube 8" subs. They're heavy, built like a tank ... | |
Thinking of adding a subwoofer -- my learnings Kevinzoe,I posted a thread on the 15th of last month (Dec.) that almost mirrors yours.Subwoofer : Front Or Downfiring For Musicality ?Considered the same sub, MJ Acoustics Ref 100 or 200. I auditioned REL, James, Velodyne, M&K, all very nice s... | |
Counterpoint 5000 -How good in it's day/now Chazzbo,I have a stock SA-5000 with better tubes and a Shunyata on the external power supply.Won't say what it "sounds better than" but I owned and heard a lot of top-flight preamps. The SA-5000 stays put on my rack shelf (till I hear something su... | |
