| Ceiling & Front Wall Treatments Have you checked with the manufacture of the panels? I got mine from Ready Acoustics and they were very helpful; had me put some in positions I would never have tried but which worked very well. If they have suggestions they would be more valuable... | |
| Anyone replaced Fuse with Circuit Breaker? Try magnets; that is what a friend of mine does. I suspect his favorite song is "There will be a hot time in the old town tonight!" | |
| Hissing sound coming from tweeters Try turning off everything but the amps and see if you still have it; if you do it is the amps. If not turn on the other components in order and see when you get it. | |
| Musical Fidelity A1 experiences I use to sell them; I also thought that they had a "warm" sound which was quite good. I used them with Spendor and Musical Fidelity speakers. They should not sound thin or lack bass. Either it is not working properly or the ICs or speaker wires ar... | |
| How much would I benefit from an amp upgrade? Get the current Krell 300 series integrated; they list at $2500 and appear on here regularly for around $1700. Will sound MUCH better than the kind of amps you mention; not all watts are created equal. The 203 deserve a better quality amp; but don... | |
| New REL T7 / T9 vs. older REL Storm III? The T series are designed for home theater and the S series for music. I believe the T uses Class D amps; the S series uses A/B amps. Newer and cheaper seldom equals better in my experience; I almost always buy used and try to select gear that was... | |
| Using protective discs under brass footers I have a friend who uses Audio Points and a Mapleshade Samson rack; his gear sounded better with the saucers but if I remember correctly we used them point upward with the saucer under the component rather than downward into the shelf. You can try... | |
| Using protective discs under brass footers I have been a Star Sound dealer and their brass cones do sound somewhat better using the matching brass saucers. Not night and day but noticable. | |
| Power Cord brands mixing. "Your Opinions" I have always used a mix but have has a chance to buy 8 identical cables of a good brand; I will report my impressions but will not be able to make a comparison. I have sold or am selling most of the ones I had to be able to afford the new ones. | |
| Rel R-505 work with a Pass Labs X350.5 You should contact Pass directly on this. | |
| Shunyata or Transparent Power cables I just bought 2 new Transparent power cords so will soon have a better idea of their current generation compared to Shunyata and PS. | |
| How many dealers are in "your "City ? Louisville, Ky. There is myself and a couple of video stores beside Best Buy etc. Another guy is suppose to be around but no one I know has seen him for a couple of years. Almost all the action is on Audiogon or even ebay. I don't sell new gear on... | |
| Yes,another DAC question I would look closely at the Rega Isis player; well into the very top class and some have been floating around for a semi-reasonable price i.e. $5k or so. Should easily equal anything under $10k. Do I have one? No; I have the Rega dac, which is qui... | |
| Tonearm board makers? Any local shop should be able to do wood or acrylic; a machine shop should be able to do metal. | |
| PS Audio: Power Plant Premier. How much .... Never say never; my CJ 350 sounds better through my PPP than direct. I have made the comparison several times. |
