| Maggie's and cats If your having cat problems, you can try playing Ted Nugent's "Cat Scratch Fever" loudly though your system (like a burn-in cd) and I'm sure they'll stay far away. Plato's idea's a good one, or you can try placing (don't laugh, it works but doesn'... | |
| Does the original Audio Logic stand up to new dacs I'll second Rcprince's response, the A.L. Dac was and still is light years beyond it's time, there may be a few other tube dacs such as Audio Note 4 and 5, Zanden, Audio Aero Prima Dac, that sound great also, but when you get this far, it's system... | |
| California Audio Labs Master Series I owned a Delta-Alpha combo for ten years and never new there was a "Master Series" till I saw them for sale like Twilo mentioned above. There was actually two units sold in approx. the same time peiod (unusual) and I just happened to save all the... | |
| Point to point wiring. Another downfall is a circuit board can be very susceptible to airborne and mechanical vibrations. Some manufacturers implement "floating" the boards with small springs or rubber devices on the mounts to the chassis to reduce these effects. | |

| Virtual Dynamics Master Reference P/C's & Cables I can tell all you audioheads out there doin the hard and heavy serious listening that these Master Reference cords are world-class sounding. I had a few LONG revisit listening sessions (at Joes) now that everything is settling and breaking in and... | |
| Any tube DACs with tight bass? Ditto on the Audio Logic, i just got a minty model 34 to replace my long stand-by modded Alpha, this thing really rocks out in a MAJOR way, plus it has four tubes for me to roll if i want to. It's a definate keeper. | |

| Counterpoint SA-5000 or First Sound Presence Pre Thanks for setting this straight Mknowles16 and S23chang. I never had any problems with any of my SA5000 preamps. Even if I did, Michael Elliott is there to repair, no big runaway issue for me, he has a good set of ears and knows good sound. | |
