Power cord upgrade OP: +1 System synergy. I have Transparent Audio cabling from the wall to the TA power conditioners. Then Synergistic Research cabling to the components. Adding an upper-tier digital SR power cord to the streamer was a ’wow’ moment. Ask if your lo... | |
Bias Adjustment If you’re near San Diego, Peter @PBN Audio might take a look. Every once in a while, he'll work on other’s equipment. Very knowledgeable & cordial. | |
Clipping with Separates with change of Power Conditioner[?] There will be serious design & parts compromises when power conditioning and surge protection are combined in one box - at a low price. Too good to be true. Return the W-Audio if you can. Buy a quality, pre-owned, non-current limiting, power c... | |
15 amp circuit VS. 20 amp Circuit The old-fashioned way would be to look up how much amperage is used for each component and then add up the total. The specs should be in the owner’s manual and/or the back plate. The amperage will increase for the amps during playback - so select ... | |

Battle of the Older DAC @jond +1 These observations by Vlad, of Audio Mirror, make much sense. OP: No DAC, by itself, is a silver bullet to fantastic SQ. It takes a system. And a system takes time to build. Stay within your budget. Take your time. And no - streaming i... | |
Use of Denafrips Iris 12th DDC with computer Many years ago, I started streaming Tidal with a dedicated laptop. Besides the laptop itself being tricked out, it also had Fidelizer Pro software*, a USBe Perfect, a dedicated LPS - with a custom DIY umbilical cord, a dedicated power conditioner,... | |
Transparent Audio power cords OP: Great system! I suspect that it already sounds pretty amazing. My initial suggestion would be to experiment by removing one (or more) of the Add--Powr resonators. Wait several hours and re-evaluate. In my experience, the Add-Powr ElectraClea... | |
Transparent Audio power cords My Frankenstereo has several of the original TA Powerlink MM's feeding TA PIMM’s. From one PIMM, a Purist Audio Contego power cord is feeding my Class A SS amp. Theoretically, one would think that those two power cords in series - along with Class... |
