Ghost in the machine? Try cleaning the volume control on the NAD Processor. | |
Help? Possible problem with my McCormack dna-125. My guess is that you are clipping the amp and its protection circuitry shuts the amp down to prevent it from getting damaged. Is the sound ear bleeding loud when this happens? | |
MIT Terminator 2 Component Interface Cables I use them in my system. They went for 120.00 new in 1998 when they came out and usually sell used for between 50-60.00 for a 1 meter pair. | |
ARC VS60 bias "I should use my ear to judge... Bingo! | |
Recommend an integrated amp for my Harbeth 40.1's How about an Odyssey Audio Cyclops integrated? It puts out 110wpc and 40 amps peak. That should control your Harbeth speakers quite well. They sell it on their web site for 995 and you can get a souped up version for a little more. They also come ... | |
Tubes for Audible M3A Currently, the best tubes for the Modulus 3A are the 6h23neb tubes. I bought matched and graded sets from the tube store. Anything else will be a compromise on either musicality or longevity.Bob | |
Modwright 100 - Specail Editon Still waiting to hear from you, as you mentioned listening to your 5400 with mods a few weeks ago.Bob | |
From Vandersteen 2CE to Devore Gibbons 8 or Focal I had the DeVore 8 speakers and Paradigm dsp 3100 sub set up in my living room. I was never truly satisfied with the sound, particularly on rock music. I bought the Odyssey Audio Kismet Reference Loudspeakers off a guy here on the Gon for an excel... | |
sub integration merlin tsm mme I used a Paradigm sub with DeVore Fidelity 8 speakers. I had the sub 180 degrees out of phase with the DeVores, the crossover set at 50hz and level control around 10 o clock. It blended quite seemlessly. It took me 2 solid months of fiddleing to g... | |
Modwright Ultimate Sony xa5400 sacd -Review I would love to hear it in your system, kindly let us know when.Bob | |
Matching an amp to the Vandersteen 3a signatures Parasound, Odyssey Audio are two products that come to mind and can be frequently found here on Audiogon. I had Vandersteen 2ce speakers for many years powered with a 175wpc Classe amp. As good as it sounded, when I replaced the Classe with an Ody... | |
Imaging and Detail. I was in the same boat as you. All my rock recordings from the 70's and 80's sounded like crap. I was using Vandersteen speakers, switched to DeVore speakers with a sub and still wasn't satisified and had sesigned myself to the idea of not playing... | |
Amplifiers:A Keeper for Life. Do you know of one ? I owned an origional Son of Ampzilla power amp in the late 70's. I also had a GAS Thalia preamp, and a GAS Sleeping Beauty moving coil cartridge. That system made such beautiful music. I can only guess that James Bongiorno has built an even better... | |
Is the Sony xa5400es better than scd-1? Doubtful it's better. | |
Woofers going crazy when playing vinyl I believe it is because the combination of being a rear ported speaker and the speakers proximity to the rear wall. That is something I couldn't change. The speakers also go much lower than the DeVores and much more cleanly.Bob |
