| Audioquest ..good choice to stick to one manufacturing philosophy. That way you get the full advantage of what the designer had in mind. | |
| Best interconnect burn-in method Why don't you just listen and let it do its thing.... Its interesting how it changes... | |
| Preamp - Ayre vs. Audio Research Personally, I like to buy the amp and preamp from the same manufacturer....the attributes are present/flaws are diminished. Getting different designers' take on their units is a crap shoot putting them together. | |
| Lyra Delos Cartridge - Underrated? Lyras are all nice cartridges - (my fav is the Etna) - as for setup, I don’t trust anyone to set up MY turntable. It takes lots of time to do it properly and carefully.....it will take weeks later to check again and see if it has changed. | |
| Recommend Good Headphones for Traveling somehow my post about this was not published......Entymotics....not expensive, but excellent ear buds | |
| Speaker Cable Suggestions When I tried ClearDay cables I couldn't believe how much better they were in my system after auditioning all top price cables from top manufacturers. Try them with a money back guarantee......I'm not affiliated with ClearDay, just a satisfied user. | |

| VPI Analogue Drive System Doesn't my SDS that drives my turntable do what the ADS does?? What's the difference - is one better than the other, etc. | |
| Give and Take czarivey......stuff happens.....my other 5a is fine......one thing I should say. A couple of years ago, I had to send back the bass amp because of an electrical surge. Perhaps that also affected the midrange. I have nothing but compliments re:... | |
| Best line conditioner??? People have endorsed conditioners, but in all I've tried, I can't do the same. They all change the sound but add warts that I'd rather forego | |
| Ayre owners and preamp options: seeking advice I agree with Randy-11 et al. All my elecronics are Ayre...they all work well together, are ultra reliable, backed by Ayre's great service department and sound great......what more could you want... | |
| Give and Take Yes they are fantastic rpeluso......I heard a metalic/fuzzy sound from the left speaker on some frequencies that has been there for months... tried cleaning all the contacts, ran the Ayre break-in disc, and yet there it was again. The Ayre disc h... | |
| Initial impressions of my new Vandersteen Quatro's in Audi Havana Black I have 5A's in a wood called Kowazinga.....whenever I get guests in the house they exclaim how beautiful those things are... I had a furniture refinisher in the house for some scratches on the coffee table, who couldn't resist taking closer look... |
