What Is Most Important? The ability to present live performers in room experience. I want every listening session to be totally engaging, like I'm getting into performers heads, a personal musical experience with these individuals, they're speaking to me. | |
What say you binding posts or direct wire? I agree with your logic, but the same logic can be applied to every connector and wire within the speaker, and every component for that matter. Every connector and type of wire within components are subject to dissimilar metals and/or possible inf... | |
Musetec (LKS) MH-DA005 DAC Thanks Charles. My reasoning for 005 as being suitable for even highest echelon systems comes from the assumption I still haven't reached it's full resolving/transparency capabilities. Until I no longer hear improvements in this will continue ... | |
Musetec (LKS) MH-DA005 DAC @lordmelton I don't recall, but are you using power conditioning? The reason I ask is using multiple ac cleaning devices may have detrimental effect. It may also be possible more than one of these devices daisy chained may have positive effect, BP... | |
My experience with the First Watt F7 @twoleftears @audition__audio Exactly what I was thinking, shows not generally good place to hear best performance out of systems/components. Generally, only setups in ball/conference rooms at shows have been impressive for me. Again, reviews fro... | |
Musetec (LKS) MH-DA005 DAC I tried the Flux 50 last night, just completely sucked the life out of music. Flux 50 only on dac, this with often played cd rip. Based on my negative experiences with three filtering devices over past year (RenoLabs Ultimate switch, generic F... | |
outboard crossover users, how important is the hook up wire from crossover to drivers. I have highly modded Klipschorns and run the same Duelund wire to tweeter and mid driver, use Furutech (forget the model) to woofer. I've not heard the Auditorium, but you should know what it would provide vs Duelund since already using it. So, ba... | |
My experience with the First Watt F7 @charles1dad I've not heard the AGD, but based on reviews from trusted folks, the AGD's are somewhat closer to tube sound qualities vs most class a ss, cool looking as well, | |
Musetec (LKS) MH-DA005 DAC @steakster I only purchased the Flux 50 after purchase of Klipschorns, 104db sensitivity and high current transmitter tubes can make a bit of noise. Flux 50 was only filter or power conditioner I ever tried with both my 845 SET amps that didn't n... | |
My experience with the First Watt F7 For sure, I'd never write off the FW amps in general, amp/speaker synergy so important. I've been extremely interested in the AGD's as well, seen some nice reviews from folks I trust. | |
Musetec (LKS) MH-DA005 DAC Well, I can't help but have expectation bias with using Flux 50. Not only the damping properties @balja speaks of, but this will be daisy chaining power conditioning. I already have the BPT 3.5 Sig. isolation transformer, not expecting good thing... | |
MoFi controversy @ghasley I agree in that the final product is what it is, it hasn't suddenly morphed into something it wasn't prior to this knowledge. Still, people do deserve being given this knowledge prior to purchase. I presume beyond this, any anger or d... | |
My experience with the First Watt F7 @roxy54 I've auditioned a number of ss amps since going tube in early 2000's, always the same deficiencies you're hearing. Tube amps, specifically SET have provided the greatest sense of live performers in room. I hear it as immediacy or closeness... | |
New Dedicated Line - Almost No improvement As for running components with battery supplies. I had NEW (Nirvana Electronic Works) DCA66 class a ss amp way back in 90's, early 2000's, ran off four wheelchair batteries, also have Merlin VSM-MM which has BAM that runs off 4 9V batteries. P... | |
New Dedicated Line - Almost No improvement I have battery storage device I tried on various components, prefer sound from dedicated lines and transformer based power conditioner. The cheap inverters in these devices is the problem, create their own noise/distortions. I assume those built s... |
