| Power Strips While i can't vouch for any of the Monster's below the HS-2000, i'm "guessing" that the HTS-1000 should also work. If anyone is looking for a unit of this type, try doing a search for the specific brand that you want at:www.yahooshopping.comThe re... | |
| Baffle and bass box suggestions? Try posting this within the forums that "not so" Clueless suggested or at www.madisound.com as there are plenty of speaker "nuts" there. Hope this helps.... Sean> | |
| speaker cable; what to do? I agree with ALL of the above. Now let me tell you truth : )Keep ALL of your cables as short as possible ( within reason ).If you must use long speaker cables ( more than about 10' at most ), use something other than a side by side design ( aka zi... | |
| Need help with analog system choices If you have an EXTREMELY ROCK SOLID place to install your TT with minimal vibration transfer, picking a table leaves you with a lot of choices. Suspension won't be as big of a deal so you can look at other areas of performance and design. Otherwis... | |
| TAS new look-the end is near? I bet that JA is happy that Harley left Stereophile for more than one reason now : ) Sean> | |
| Best 1,000 complete system for girlfriend ideas This can be a VERY touchy situation. I would proceed with caution. My suggestion is to buy new / demo / refurb with a warranty and keep it simple. Most non-audiophile women are more concerned with looks and convenience so long as it sounds "reason... | |
| AC Conditioners: Must Have Tweak or More Voodo My personal opinion is that most of these "tweaks" such as a good power line conditioner, dedicated lines, well designed power cords, etc... are all additive things. As such, one will not replace the other, etc...Given your situation, i would firs... | |
| CD Player Modifications. Is it worth the ? With no offense to Dan Wright, i would not place his level of experience or knowledge anywhere near that of Stan Warren's. As most of you know, Stan has been working with audio for a couple of decades now as both a designer and "tweaker". Someone ... | |
| OK - now total confusion has set in Hey Doc, some people actually listen to music at "volume". Not everyone plays "genteel" music at "mouse level". As such, air-born energy is transmitted into everything within the room. As to Ndmaitre's question, i would loose the marble and build ... | |
| Cleaning the laser, advisable? I've heard of similar stories to Flex's. If the "brush" is relatively stiff, it can literally knock the lens off of the laser. This probably just sped up the process though, as the lens would have had to have been coming loose for this to happen. ... | |
| Hum and the PS Audio P300 If your cable TV ground is near the electrical service entry ground, tie them together. This should put them at the same potential and minimize any hum. I don't see a problem with doing this, but it might be good to check with a licensed electrici... | |
| Antenna Performance Tuner What is the address of this website ? Sean> | |
| Tarbishaw is back best pre amp for my system. Tubes used at the levels within a preamp should literally last forever or just about. That is, according to a tube tester. Your ears might tell you something differently though.I don't agree with Jeff's comments about the quantity of tubes within ... | |
| Power cords Many power line filters are placed "in series" with the existing wiring also. Their benefits are easily noticeable under specific conditions and measurable if you have the proper test equipment. As such, a smaller amount of "filter action" can be ... | |
| Electrostats Shootout at 4000 Corral Albert, you have to remember that the newer Eros are something like 96 db's at one watt !!! With 21 watts of tube power, they would ROAR. There are no doubts that the Innersound's ARE the king of E-stat dynamics from that point of view. Whether or... |
