| Best speakers for 2000-USED If you can find Revel Performa F30 for $2k used grab 'em fast! | |
| Who can fix electrocompaniet amps Took me a year to finally get into a serendipitous position to land an EMC-1 MkII at cost, and my-o-my BWhite knows what he's talking about, here: what a fine, ultrarugged player. I frankly don't expect to have to service it, but felt that it was ... | |
| The best CD Player for the money I liked the ARCAM's tonal integrity , bloom and utter harmonic naturalness, too, but felt it had serious PRaT problems compared to the Rotel and ALL other contenders. Just seemed to dance with two left feet....Certainly a rich sound with lots 'o f... | |
| Best CHEAP floorstanders? Saw Hales Revelation 3 on A'gon a week or so back for 1150/pr.There's a deal! | |
| DIY Speaker and IC Cable Burning Hmm...Tnt: I venture that it's your acoustic memory that's shifting. Do you find that everything starts to sound ok again after 1/2 hour of listening again? Probably more ear-brain stuff than dielectric charge/discharge electrobabble.... | |
| Power Cords for Beginners: Synergistic v. Shunyata I'm about to buy a reel of 83803 Copper 12-3 in Teflon to make dedicated lines AND PCs, with ACME outlets, Schurter IECs and P&S/Marinco plugs. Any warnings? Thanks. | |
| Why use speaker cable at all with monoblocks? Who was it, Yves Bernard Andre who went on and on about why 1.5 meters is the minimum cable length required to mate an amp with a transducer? Forget why. Not even sure YBA sells/makes cables, either.Pro monitors do it for simplicity and compactnes... | |
| Copper v. Silver IC sound Hmm...my brother has been pressure-laminating precious metalds for Texas Instrments for 15+ years...mostly gold, some silver, for commercial, defense, NASA accounts, etc.I'll try to remember to ask him if there's any diodic potential variation as ... | |
| Anyone made the "Bob Crump" home-made powercord? Thanks, Kevin. Decided to use 10-3 for the monos line, but Belden 83803 12-3 FEP over tinned copper for front end dedicated lines AND PCs. Hope I can get it into the Schurters.... Ernie | |
| Anyone made the "Bob Crump" home-made powercord? Anyone try the 90 degree IEC (Shurter or P&S?), or 90 degree P&S male AC plug in this (or similar) design?Also, can these connectors accept 10AWG? Can a P&S 5242, or only the 20 amp 53XX?Thanks, folks...I ask because I want to make up ... | |

| Pwr enhancer or straight from the wall? I'm about to direct-wire my Aleph 2s (300 w idle ea) to the board with 10-2 Romex, through a 30amp HD switch to a hosp grade outlet. I'll let you know if there's a diff. PCs yet to be decided....Bought two heavy duty Leviton duplex outlets at the ... | |
| Help with decision...New CDP or add DAC to DVD? Sugarbrie, if it is just about reading smaller pits then I suppose 6 lb DVDs perhaps could sound good. I've tried two (pioneer and panasonic) that surely DON'T...even with a Bel Canto DAC.Pretty clear to me that low jitter and clock timing issues ... | |
| Rotel RCD 991 AE with MSB III Half Nelson DAC My original heavy-transport Rotel RCD855 is up for sale at $250 shipped...$325 with Neuance platform. Makes a fine cheap transport, and actually sounds better naked than with a Bel Canto DAC! | |
