| Wet carpet under system Use a wet/dry vac to get the moisture out of the carpet then put baking soda on carpet. Vacuum carpet to remove baking soda. | |
| 2.1 / 2.2 Request for Amp Suggestions I would go with one of the JL powered subwoofers. According to JV of TAS, the JL subs can match the speed of the Magnepan panels. That will fill the hole in the bass | |
| Rogue Atlas Magnum sounds bright -- any recommendations? I would ask Rogue if your amp could safely use the KT120 tubes. I had a Cronus Magnum integrated with 2 NOS Mullard CV4003 input tubes in place of the 12au7 tubes and the Tung Sol KT120 output tubes and it sounded very smooth, not bright. You co... | |
| Filter capacitor issue Knowing my poor diagnosing and soldering skills, I would toss it in the trash and move on. I certainly wouldn’t buy anything you repaired as there is always a chance the unit could catch fire down the road. If you don’t know what you are doing, ... | |
| Isolated Ground causes ground hum. I would think long and hard about adding the ground rods. If you did get hit by lightning or gave an electrical fire, it’s a sure bet your homeowners insurance may be quite reluctant to cover the loss. To be sure, I would have a local certified ... | |

| Emotiva equipmet, how good is it? I had an Emotiva XDA dac. It was the brightest and thinness sounding piece of crap I ever heard. You get what you pay for. The worst were the very bright and ugly led’s. It could burn holes in your eyeballs. Never again, I got conned | |
| D&S Tech Labs Speakers Are you aware they are Home Theater speakers? | |
| Which power cords should I look at? Why not go all Shunyata? That’s what I dif but I am using their mid line cables from 10 years ago and I use two Hydra 4 conditioners and a Hydra 2. My system is totally dead quiet and I use a tube preamp. I think you would get more system syne... | |
| Primaluna Dialogue Premium with KT150s. Has anyone heard these? My friend has the Prima Luna Dialog HP integrated with 8 KT150 tubes. It is the best sounding integrated I have ever heard and with his Harbeth speakers, you can listen all day and then some. Powerful yet delicate when needed. | |
| Too much of a good thing... If you want something a bit brighter, Nordost comes to mind. | |
| Why Power Cables Affect Sound @mkgus...……………………………………….I tried 3 Pangea Acc9 MKII cables and also an AC14 something and they all sucked the life out of my system. Back they went to AA.I use the mid priced Shunyata cords in my system and am extremely pleased. | |
