power conditioner I have a McIntosh MA6600 Integrated, a MCD 301 SACD player and MR85 Tuner and use a Shunyata Hydra 4 Conditioner. They do not limit current and really do work. They went for around a grand new with 4 outlets and I got mine here for 400.00. Peo... | |
Oppo protection plan ?? According to Consumer Reports, Extended Warrantys on electronics is not in the customers best interest as most of the equipment is obsolete within a couple of years. I have never bought an extended warranty on any of my new equipment and never re... | |
New Vandersteens or something else? I'm not sure where you are located, but Johnny R at Audio Connection in NJ had most of the Vandersteens on display when I visited him in March while picking up my Prime. Who knows, he may even have something used. Worth a try, I always think of ... | |
Acrolink Cables, anyone heard them? Thanks guys. All kidding aside, I would like someone who has heard them to chime in as to what type of sound one can expect. | |
Acrolink Cables, anyone heard them? @jond +1, lol. | |
PC upgrade for Rega Aria? I noticed absolutely nothing. After all, it's only powering the motor. You would probably gain more by getting one of the motor controllers. The cord does look nice in my system though:) | |
tangential answers to specific questions on the forum I find the answers quite irritating. I just posted a thread on Acrolink cables and even though I said "I am interested in Acrolink only", I am sure I will get everything from blue genes cables all the way to Nordost and beyond.Sometimes I wonder ... | |
Vpi Prime Scout (New) vs Well Tempered @mr_m............................The last Well Tempered I heard was about 5 years ago. My thoughts were they are nothing special and build quality not up too par compared to VPI. I like VPI, have had 3 of their turntables and likely my current P... | |
Whats in your second system? @bubba12.......................I have the Triton References which are truly wonderful, but I do not get to listen to that system very often (maybe once a week), as now that wife and I are both retired, she is always in the living room either watch... | |
PC upgrade for Rega Aria? For my VPI Prime, I purchased an Audio Art AC3 power cord. I purchased the one with the Watt Gate connectors for 150.00 but you can spend a little more for some different Furutech connectors. | |
Hegel Mohican vs. Bryston BCD-3 IMHO, if you are looking for your LAST cd player, I would look at the Esoteric. There is an Esoteric UX-3 for sale here at around 1500.00. That piece cost 8500.00 when new. It uses one of the best transports in the world, the VRD NEO and also ... | |
How good are Shunyata power cords?? I use a mid line Shunyata power cords throughout my system and I am very satisfied. | |
Fix it or not, my CJ Premier 11a Amp? I recently had my CJ amp repaired at their factory. It took 2 days for UPS to deliver to CJ, a day for them to repair it and 2 days to get it back. It works perfectly and cost me less than 150.00 for the repair. I see no problems with their ser... | |
attn vandersteen dealers upgrade my 1ci to 3(latest) I concur with Johnny R. He is truly one of the good guys in audio and he probably knows as much about Vandersteen as the man himself. | |
What is it that you don't like about your Listening Room ? My biggest gripe is the system is in our living room and it shares a TV, lots of furniture and a wife who watches a lot of TV. Get the picture? |
