| Favorite HDCD???? Alannah Davis- 'Blame it on Me' | |
| Using a two channel pre-amp with a HT processor. I had the ARC LS-16, and used it exactly as you described with excellent results. It allowed me to run a fully balanced circuit from the CDP (Sim Audio Eclipse) through to the fully balanced amp (Theta Dreadnaught), then simply flip the switch on ... | |
| Conditioners for power amps Interesting! (re: the voltage gain). I didn't realize a conditioner could do this, however my new PLC (Tice Powerblock IIIC high-power version) actually DOES indicate a higher voltage (the meters say ~124 right now, whereas my older inferior PLC i... | |
| Wadia, Audio Aero, Meridian, BAT and BOW I have the Capitole 24/192- simply wonderful! (also allows you to bypass a preamp w its built in volume control). You won't be disappointed. | |

| Is the quality of the AC in canada is better than USA ? What an interesting post! Maybe it depends WHERE in Canada. I am in Toronto, live in a 100-year old apartment building uptown with crap 15-amp (if that!) circuits. If I lived in the USA, say, Montana, right beside a power station with a power tran... | |
| Any speaker cable's sound quality just blown you away? Coincident Total Reference | |
| Buying Hi-End CD Player or Transport.. Agreed with Jtinn- I use the Capitole 24/192, and wouldn't trade it for anything right now. Also- I drive 4 tube amps directly in a bi-amp config using the balanced and SE outs simulataeously. The larger 170 wpc triode monoblocks (used for bass du... | |
