| long i/c run...looking for high end cable Whatever brand of cables that you end up going with, with that long of a run, i would HIGHLY recommend using balanced cables. Sean> | |
| very disappointed about my system setup Thoroughly cleaned records played back on a "reasonable" linear tracking table have a MUCH lower surface noise level and blacker background than even a well set up pivoted arm. Obviously, differences in cartridges, stylus shapes, VTA, etc.. can th... | |
| Peter Gabriel in Chicago I too thought it was a good show and had pretty good seats - front row : ) While i would not say that there were a lot of theatrics involved compared to some bands, i would say that there was a lot more going on than a bunch of musicians sitting a... | |
| Why do digital cables sound different? While it is strictly a matter of semantics, the actual digital out signal from a transport is sent at 2.822 MHz. If one could resonate a cable that introduced a perfect non-reactive 75 ohm load at that frequency, you would end up with no standing ... | |
| DAC decision, help please Stan, having owned every version of the Sigma and Alpha DAC's ever made, currently owning a highly modified GDA-700, having listened to a fully modified Dio from Bolder Cables, Bel Canto and MSB along with the newer Musical Fidelity upsampler, i w... | |
| Whats the BEST audio site : If i was "stuck" with Agon and AA as being the only audio related websites that i could visit, i would not mind one bit. Sure, there are others that i visit on a daily basis, but i spend most of my time on those two for good reason. Sean> | |
| Sansui AU-X1 Fred, you might be better off by finding a site dedicated to vintage Sansui products. I don't know if one exists, but i would not doubt it. There is a website for just about anything you want to think about and then some. Sean> | |
| neutrality vs. realism I think that we are all looking for the same things i.e. a system that can deliver all of the subtle and delicate details of a recording :A) without loosing any warmth in the mid-bass, liquidity of mids or definition of low frequenciesB) without i... | |
| For a fuller bass- A3.2 MF or Unico UR ? While i can't offer direct comparisons between any of the gear mentioned, i can offer some notes that i've cobbled together. Musical Fidelity gear has a family sound i.e. it is all voiced the same. To me, that sound is relatively lean and lacking ... | |
| Question on setting up mono block Kind of confusing here. You say that the RCA's are on the back of the amps ( which would make them "inputs" ) yet you call them "outputs". This could lead some to believe that you were referring to the preamplifier outputs, which .5 V and even 1 V... | |
| Can you help a computer "idiot" ? Lngbruno: Thanks for the resonse. I do not know what OS you are running, but i came up in "never-never" land when i did what you said. For the record, i have XP on this computer, so that might change a few things. Sean> | |
| Great Imaging Speakers Working against a wall? Ernie: No, i can't say that i've heard anything like that other than during HT sound effects. Obviously, this is done using electronic processing, so i would not expect this to be achieved with "normal" music recordings and this specific speaker p... | |
| The Heat Is On Zaikesman: Very good and valid point. I would hate for someone to try "cleaning" or "oiling" their speakers, thinking that it was okay to use a specific product because it was something that we recommended here, and end up destroying / altering th... | |
| Good turntable equipped for about 700 dollars? Twl: Linn probably stole / modeled their motto after Stiff Records, which was a "punk" record label back in the 70's and early 80's. While they had MANY "amusing" motto's over the years, the one that i was thinking of went something like "If it ai... | |
| The Heat Is On Glad to see you back, knucklehead : ) Sean> |
