| Walking that fine line: What would you do ? Greg, it still sounds quite musical but is not quite as "warm" of "full bodied". It is cleaner, quicker, better bass definition, more accurate, etc.. whereas the other amp that i was running was a little more "colourful" and "sensual" sounding on ... | |
| Walking that fine line: What would you do ? Reference quality ? This is the system in my computer room !!! Honestly though, i use this system a LOT and have spent a lot of time with various trial and error combo's. If i told you guys what i'm currently running and what i paid for it, it wou... | |
| Tweak worth 100X It's price - Vibrapods Sam: I don't know the technical name for the nuts that you are talking about, but i have called them / heard them referred to as "Castle" nuts. This may / may not be correct.Dekay: I think that those racks are still available but Audio Advisor sto... | |
| Anyone do DVD player modifications? Upgrading the power supply section on a DVD player will increase the performance of both sections ( audio and video ). As usual, the "usual" culprits that you'll find recommended are Stan Warren, Ric from EVS, Dan Wright, John Hillig, etc... They ... | |
| How much money do you want to waste? I agree and disagree. While i believe that wires / cables DO make a difference ( so i disagree with the main thrust of the post ), i do agree that most wires / cables are WAY overpriced and a source of great revenue for dealers / manufacturers. Th... | |
| Classe CA 200 or DR 25 The DR series of products were designed by the original owner / designer of Classe' gear. His name is Dave Reich i.e. the "DR" abbreviation. These are typically much better sounding than the other "non DR" Classe' models in my opinion. Of course, ... | |
| Best speakers for a small room? 10'X14' Personally, i don't think that Maggies would work well in a room of that size. You should have no problem pressurizing that size room, so efficiency is not a major concern. This would point me towards a sealed box or transmission line design, espe... | |
| Has anyone heard the Innersound Electrostatic amp? Brad, i don't think that the Stratos is rated at 260 @ 4 ohms, as Klaus has altered the specs since they were first introduced. Needless to say, some people were REALLY upset about this and felt as if they were "ripped off". You can find a thread ... | |
| Original Packaging, you gotta have it. The dock hands and OTR / Delivery drivers are paid on VERY different wage scales. The guys "beating" the packages are typically part time employees ( UPS does this to get around paying full scale benefits ). These are people that couldn't care any... | |
| What's new since the MSB Link DAC III? Fineberg, there are benefits to going push-pull and there are drawbacks. While one type of distortion is reduced due to increased linearity and cancellation, another is increased due to "crossing over". One could "piggyback" two dac chips per chan... | |
| Found a gold mine Find out if they would be willing to part with them. If you have a burner or are capable of having someone make a copy, you might want to try that approach, at least for a "reasonable" amount of discs. Most people don't want to go through the hass... | |
| How do you improve bass response in a null? How about moving the couch a tad further back. You don't have to muck with speaker placement much and this would change your listening point of perception. Sean> | |
| Original Packaging, you gotta have it. Derek, NOW do you know why i packed the way that i did and made the statements that i did about filing claims and the hassle involved ??? : ) Sorry that the deal didn't work out, but you were completely justified in refusing the shipment. Nobody s... | |
| Generally Speaking TRUE bi-wiring ( individual cable runs to the high and low frequency drivers ) can contribute the following benefits to the system IF the drivers are actually isolated when you pull the jumpers:Increased control of the individual drivers due to lo... | |
| AC PWR cable to PWR Conditioner??? I agree with Bob in terms of folks trying to "cheap out" by using a "hi-tech" power cord to feed the PLC and then use "stock" cords to all of the components. Even if the "good" cord and PLC minimize the incoming AC noise to an acceptable level, th... |
