| cost no object integrated amps At more down-to-earth prices, you may consider the top-of-the-range Luxman integratedsL-509X (Class AB)L-590AXII (Class A)I have the 590AXII and it’s marvellous. It’s so good that I’ve upgraded all my cables to premium ones(power cords, interconne... | |
| Acrolink 8N-PC8100 Performante Power Cable rnrmf1971 or anyone, I understand you now have both PC9700 and PC8100. I have gone through the comments and reviews on this forum, Eric’s blog and everywhere else and have a rather good idea how both cords sound like. Nevertheless, based on your e... | |
| acrolink vs. esoteric/ acrolink Old thread but I just got a PC9700 which happens to be my first premium power cord. This cord truly changes everything. I’m not going to wax lyrical about this cable but rather share the same enthusiasm on the higher range of Mexcel cables which i... | |
| Back to trying to upgrade Harbeth 30.1s M30.1 is my least favorite speaker with the Harbeth line (M30 is worst with rolled off treble and a warm and dark sound). As others have mentioned, the P3ESR is worth considering. Another option if you want to get out of Harbeth is Marten, either ... | |
| Acrolink 8N-PC8100 Performante Power Cable I'm more than a year late to the party. I just tried the PC9700 in my system and man this cable brought a huge difference to my system. I will swap out the cable with a cheap Supra Lorad shortly to reconfirm my enthusiasm. It's surely quality. At ... | |

| Luxman L-509X Douggie, only the first photo comes up while the other two failed to load. Although the quality of the image is low resolution, it does appear that the two highlighted vents are poorly formed. Could you speak directly to the dealer to have it sort... | |
| Furutech GTX NCF receptical break in, how long It sounds terrible between 20 to 50 hours. I hope it will sound better approaching 100 hours. | |
| B&W 702S2 jumper cables Perhaps the Chord Signature links are revealing the actual treble response of the B&W 702S2 while the standard metal plates toned down the brightness of the tweeter. I have the Chord Signature links and they do not show the character which you... | |

| Furutech GTX NCF receptical break in, how long I currently have about 20 hours on the GTX-D NCF. It's true that it sounds great during first few hours. It's sounding not very good at the moment with a flat sound and rolled off treble. I can't wait to get this thing past the 500 hours mark. Sti... | |
| Furutech GTX-D Rhodium NCF Outlet Looks like I'm answering my own question I posted above. I just installed the Furutech GTX-D NCF and although I didn't compare it with the non-NCF, man the difference between the GTX-D NCF and standard outlet is night and day. Stunning improvement... | |
| What solid state power amp are you using with your Harbeth Super HL5+ speakers? Jjss49, from the list, I have used the Nait XS to drive the SHL5 before. The amp is underpowered in driving the speakers and the result is underwhelming. If sticking with Naim, you need 282/250DR minimum for the SHL5+. Better still 252/300DR or hi... | |
| Furutech GTX-D Rhodium NCF Outlet Has anyone compared the Furutech GTX-D (R) NCF to the GTX-D (R) non-NCF? I was told the NCF reduces a little sparkle in the highs and makes it sound smoother. It’s like applying dolby NR with the NCF? Does anyone find the non-NCF to sound more neu... | |
