| Cables for B&W Nautilus 802 I owned a pr.of B&W CDM-1NT a few years ago and they definitely preferred copper. Silver always made them sound a bit tipped-up and bright. AZ Satori is a good safe choice. I actually preferred the Stealth Premier copper to the Satori, but whe... | |

| Speaker stands for Reference 3A De Capo i I did a search one time regarding monitor stands and one of the names which seemed to come up most often as the best is Osiris. The Osiris looks to be built like a tank. Whatever you decide, make sure that they are heavy metal with hopefully the o... | |
| Anyone tried Oritek X-1 cables? You can only order the X-1 direct from the manufacturer. His name is Ori and his e-mail address is Orim@ispwest.com. Ori's username on Audiogon is Serus. Happy listening. Ori is a very nice guy and responds to all e-mails. | |
| Cheap amp $300 to use with Vandersteen 2ces One of the best amps that I felt was the most synergistic with my Vandersteen 2B's was a slightly modded by Musical Concepts Hafler DH200. A very musical and synergistic combo. | |
| Review: Auricle Audio Encore Ka ICs I wasn't going to say anything until I had bought all I needed for my own system, for I knew that the prices would soon begin to go up, but now that the secret is out, these are wonderful interconnects. I have had great results on my home theatre ... | |
| BlackSand PC question Trip, I just noticed a 5' Powerwave for sale for $115.00 in the classifieds. If I didn't have plenty of cords right now, I'd scarf this one up in a heartbeat. You can thank me later, or if you don't like it, I'll buy it from you and thank you then. | |
| BlackSand PC question Hey Trip, I've not had the opportunity to try the Black Sand yet, but I'm hesitant because I haven't had good experiences with power cords that have ferrite chokes in them. I did have the Odyssey Stratos( an excellent s.s. amp,by the way) and I fe... | |
| Review: DCM TimeWindow 1 Speaker From what I recall, when I was selling the Time Windows back in 1979, DCM used all Philips drivers. The woofer was, I believe, @6 ohms. You might do a google search or contact DCM directly( are they still in business?) or try this site: www.layne... | |
| Good power cord for Rotel? I 2nd the Virtual Dynamics line. I also found the Shunyata Sidewinder Gold to work well. I have since sold my Rotel gear, but I would bet that the new DCCA Powerwave Extreme, $189.00 retail, would work wonders for your amp as well as the other Rot... | |
| Good speaker cable for Rotel / B & W I had a Rotel 985 5-channel amp and B&W CDM 1NT speakers a few years ago and a great speaker cable for them is the Stealth Premier cables. You can find an 8 ft. pair used on Audiogon occasionally for @ $200.00-$250.00/pr. This is a very synerg... | |
| Electra Glide Ultra Kahn II and NOISE Canyon John, DCCA has all three of their power cords on auction right now. There are many threads on why a good power cord makes such a big difference, in spite of the miles of cheap wire that precedes it. What most of us non-technical oriented a... | |
| Cardas vs Shunyata power cords question Hi Waltersalas, I am waiting for some demos to come in to Don for a possible demo myself. Perhaps the two versions you demo'd are ones Don had in mind for me to try. I have two meager systems, one with a 50W Audio Refinement Complete integrated an... | |
| Electra Glide Ultra Kahn II and NOISE Jayctoy, I have only tried the entry-level Power wave Extreme and I'm very impressed. I can only imagine how much better the next two Ref1 and Reference cords sound. I want to get the full measure of this entry-level cord at first. Then I might ju... | |
| Electra Glide Ultra Kahn II and NOISE Tvad, I agree with your assessment of the Elrod and DCCA power cords. I just sold my Elrod Sig3 for financial reasons, but recently rebuilt a new system(downgraded?) with the DCCA cords and I am happier with the overall sound than I was previous... |
