| In Whose Ears Do You Trust Most? I run all my changes by my wife for many reasons. I value and want her opinion ( by me constantly doing this she has seen that she is able to evaluate sound very well and now trusts herself!) Keeping her involved make it easier when I purchase mor... | |
| Help with upgrading speaker cables There is so much change to my system coming next week(ARC CD3 MK2, ARC VS-115) when things settle in I'll try the CDP's I/C or do you think you have to change-out 100% from the start? | |
| What happens when? Dave my local Aesthetix dealer strongly recommends using the Calypso Bal he believes it is much better sound quality. In my case Quicksilver V-4's with Bal imputs are special order so I may have to wait awhile for a used pair to come up for sale!!... | |
| What happens when? Thanks I'll run BAL. CDP to PRE, and for the time being S/E to the AMPS. | |
| What happens when? Thanks guys!!! I'm really wondering what happens inside the Calypso, what happens when you come in Bal and go out S/E is it in any way stressing the Calypso? Is it just a sound and/or a db issue and not a problem? | |
| how to correct channel imbalance? I bought a pre with a balance for this very reason (possibility). | |
| Anyone compared Droplet to the Raysonic CD168? My experience is that my Raysonic 168 differs tremendously with each tube type. In my system the EH 6922 and the Jan Phillips 6922 both sound thin and veiled( a lot of background "noise"). When I insert 6922 White PQ'S the sound not only becomes f... | |
| Musical Subwoofer for 2-channel system At $700 you are in the Vandersteen 2Wq range, they are know to be very musical definitely worth checking out. | |
| Help with upgrading speaker cables No technology diminishes with time the cables are just aged( like wine ?) | |
| Help with upgrading speaker cables P.S. I had a pair of Kimber Bifocal XL's and the Volcano bested them by quite a bit in my system, AQ goes well with Vandy's. | |
| Help with upgrading speaker cables I have 3A sigs with Quicksilver amp's I like the warmth of the AQ copper, Mont Blanc or better yet Volcano. I think they have the same sound characteristic but the Volcano is a much bigger sound IMO. I auditioned SR and went with the Volcano. | |
| Upgrade from Vandy 2CE sigs to the sigs 2 or 3a With the 3A sig you get the 5's tweeter and extended bass as Narrod stated. Later if you wish you can get a pair of 2Wq's and will have the equal (?) of the cloth Quatro. I have the 3A sig's and the 2Wq's (pair) 80-85 % of the 5's (?), for sound, ... | |
| Best Tubes for Raysonic 168? Sorry to hear that, let us know what happened to your CDP and when you are up and running again!!As a side note from Tom_hankins experience I tried Bugle Boys in the S/E (my I/C are S/E) and Orange label A frames in the bal sockets, I'm extremly p... | |
| about to jump into the power cord foray Blindjim some assumptions that enter into this;First there is the assumption "everyone" has a system revealing enough to hear a difference.Second" everyone 's" hearing is anatomically able to hear the differences.Third " everyone" wants to hear mo... | |
| Lost in the loudspeaker wilderness... Vandersteen 2Ce sig or MK2 might be something to check out. Don't have the style of the 805 but then the 805 don't have the sound of the 2Ce's. |
