| Nuforce Tvad, I think you do potentially err in your presupposition.You seem to insinuate that other mfgers upgrades are for reasons different than Nuforces.Did it ever occur to you that perhaps Nuforce is just a bit more honest than other mfgers? Im ... | |
| Nuforce Guys, guys. Im surprised at some of your comments here. Especially since some of them appear so irresponsible and irreversibly damaging when in fact you havent a clue what Nuforce is doing behind the scenes or what their Marketing strategy might... | |
| What unbalanced ICs to amps... Paul Speltz Anti-ICs at about $10 per foot. | |
| Nuforce Very nice review in Stereotimes.com, Frank. | |
| 20 amp dedicated lines Proper line conditioning is an absolute must. So are ics and scs that minimize time smear. The dedicated 20 amp lines will essentialy provide two benefits:1) Minimize any harmful AC noise that is generated within your home ie refrigerator motors, ... | |
| Speaker Cable-The Best of the Cheap? Markd51 you said, "Just like audio gear, a $1,000 Speaker Cable will no doubt NOT sound 10 times better than a $100 one."Don't believe everything you hear. The performance of a $100 pair of Paul Speltz Anti-ics made my $3500 ics sound quite veiled... | |
| Speaker Cable-The Best of the Cheap? Paul Speltz' Anti-Cables at $60 for a 6ft pair. Without doubt and without any dependencies. | |
| Does such a beast exist? Nuforce P-8 preamp is 1.75"H x 8.5"W x 16" deep, includes 1 set of single-ended and one set of balanced outputs, and retails for $1095. You can see the P-8 at nuforce.com in the products section. | |
| Best Interconnect to use with APL/Denon 3910 I'm using Audio Tekne ics and scs. Easily the most musical cabling I've yet heard in my system. The APL is a relatively new addition so I've only used the Teknes there.Previous cables in recent years include (from latest to earliest):Paul Speltz a... | |
| THE LATEST---Gold plated fuses? Considering that standard aluminum fuses sell for about $0.35 each, a gold-plated fuse is outrageous.However, when one considers zip cord at $1.00 verses a pair of speaker cables selling for $6000 a pair, they start to look like a bargain.As for p... | |
| Congested sound - more power or resolution? Matrix, yes, there are some (actually very few) components built far beyond other's power supplies as you stated. In fact, though there are a few out there, I only know one by name and model and that is the APL modified NWO-1 Esoteric ucdp. But ev... | |
| Congested sound - more power or resolution? Dmurfet, your specific issues / concerns could be one or a combination of problems. Still I find your response about line conditoners interesting but not surprising. My initial response is, what is your experience with AC line conditioning?You are... | |
| Bargain interconnects to tame treble & boost bass? Without doubt, I think the Paul Speltz anti-cables and anti-ics will do the most for your system as they likely would for many systems far more expensive than your own. A fabulous speaker cable at $60 for a 6 ft. pair and $60 for a one meter pair ... | |
| If $ was no object what speaker would you buy? The MBL 101Es are very intriguing but I've never listened to them.For me it would have to be the exotic Kharma Exquisites. The most beautiful speaker I've yet seen. Regardless of what others claim of their supposed sonic shortcomings, I'm convince... | |
| Congested sound - more power or resolution? It's not the room and although one component or another may be contributing to this grunge to some extent, you are probably experiencing the results of untreated AC noise and the bi-directional digital noise generated by your cd player.Digital noi... |
