Speakers for Rock Music
Sure like the look of those VMPS.Would be something I would be interested in if I could find a pair locally. 
Need help upgrading
I am slowly changing my mind on this whole idea of upgrading everything.I have done some searching and these are my current thoughts.I am very happy with the setup I have for HT.I do like the setup I have for music...but,am not completely satisfie... 
Change Interconects? Will it Help?
The 400 series of IC's by by Monster are actually not bad IC's.They are a warm cable though and do lack detail but upgrading to Blue Jeans I do not think you will notice that much of a improvement.If you really are looking for big improvements I r... 
Interconnects for Rotel Amp. + CD
I have the rcd-1072 cdp to rsp-1069 preamp to rmb 1075 amp.For the last few months I have tried Nordost Red Dawns and Blue Heavens.I tried Synergistic Research Kaleidoscope Phase II's.Also monster cable Ic's.None of the above did it for me.Then I ... 
Who has dumped the power conditioner?
I am waiting on a MIT Z Duplex Super which I will add to one of my Dedicated 20amp lines and see if it makes a difference.I am hoping it will not limit or color the sound.plus peace of mind that my system is protected. 
Who has dumped the power conditioner?
I just removed a apc h15 from my system.Everything but the amp was connected to it.After trying numerous interconnects I decided to remove my sources from the apc and it opened up my system and I heard sounds I never heard before by going directly... 
MIT Burn In ?
I was sort thinking on the same path as you stated.I think it is wishful thinking that no preamp has to be on.I am going to call MIT to confirm but Joe Abrams whose is a vendor here says that the preamp needs to bel left on but the amp does not.Th... 
MIT Burn In ?
"You can hook up two different CDPs to one preamp using different inputs on the pre and play both cd players on repeat to burn in your cables."Thanks for the response Buff.But can I leave the preamp and amp off or does the preamp have to be on?I h... 
MIT Shotgun Question.
The in-wall Z stabilizer super outlet conditions and has surge protection...you will experience better sound and picture wt surge protection. Missioncoonery is saying that unless you are using MIT speaker cables, you are limiting your system.Ahhh.... 
MIT Shotgun Question.
I agree,unless running MIT speaker cables your limiting your system.Why would the MIT speaker cables limit my system?As of now I am using some overly priced thx Monster cables with the white jackets.For now my next upgrade is to replace my wall so... 
MIT Shotgun Question.
Well I decided to run the S3's 24.7 for the break in and this morning I was over the 350 mark.So I sat and gave them a good run through with some critical listing.My first impression was that they had opened up a great deal and that they sounded b... 
when are you done comparing IC's
It seems for me that it is never over.Unless you buy used and even then you have to break in the IC's and that could be days or weeks waiting for things to settle in and then it may not be what you want.What works from cdp to preamp to amp may not... 
MIT Shotgun Question.
I called Joe Abrams who I bought the IC's from and who is a MIT Dealer and he said no that it is not recommended to use barrel connectors and chain them together.He told me I needed to put them where they are going to stay and break them in that w... 
MIT Shotgun Question.
One last thing.Can I use barrel connectors and chain multiple IC's for burn in.Thanks 
MIT Shotgun Question.
Ok ..Point well taken.I am going to cancel my selling of these IC's and do a full burn in on them.Only because of what is suggested here.So I have over 200 more hours more to put on them and then will give a critical listen and will post my result...
