| What is new with the Memory Player? Audiooracle, why don't they include a processor within like the VRS system?I still am looking for a review where the tube output dac is included. | |
| What is new with the Memory Player? Scottr, are you getting the dac included? | |
| JADE AUDIO Cables I have two stories about the length of speaker cables. One comes from long ago and Bob Fulton also of Minnesota fame. His were the first special speaker wires that I ever bought although that started a long series of trials. His speaker wires were... | |
| What is new with the Memory Player? La45, I think the Memory Player was also set up in another suite at the NYC Show, but I was not there. What you heard was what I have heard before at the Rocky Mountain Audio Fest and at THE Show in Vegas. The Behold people use it as the transport... | |
| Insanely Expensive....and Worth Every Penny I would nominate the Halcyonics active isolation bases. Two years ago I saw a picture of one at the Stereophile show in NYC. A demonstration of it effect on a container of water with people striking the rack below it. No ripples. I inquired as to ... | |
| House AC Line Variance G_m_c, yes, I had not thought of changing the taps to get what you want. If I recall, however, the lowest tap is 110 volts. Would going in on that and out on 117 give you a kick up?Benb, I have had very poor luck with ac filtering. The IsoClean sy... | |
| JADE AUDIO Cables Jafox, It is difficult for me to want to try the Dream State cords, as I don't like Oyaide plugs or ERS paper. Maybe some time I will get the chance. I guess by what you say you think the Dream States are in the same league with the Stealth Dreams... | |
| JADE AUDIO Cables Guys, I have at least once been through the evaluation of multiple interconnects in various locations in my system with each having a different impact of being moved and being connected. I have had Cerious Technology, Jade, Siltech Compass Lake, C... | |
| House AC Line Variance Benb, the APS will not even approach the sound that you are getting from the Sound Application. I don't have any experience with the Thor, but other voltage regulators are sonically poison. Fortunately, my line voltage varies .2 volts from 124 ove... | |
| Preamp Deal of the Century Fiddler, I have heard nothing but praise in replacing existing caps with the V-Caps. Were it not for their cost I would use them. Of course, it is impossible to replace caps within the modules of the H-Cat equipment. | |
| Cable elevators For many this is just too far to go for realism. I have found that ceramics are imperative on every cable but only one per cable. To me this suggests that resonance is not the problem resolved but rather electrical charges. On my long 4 m. ics fro... | |
| What is new with the Memory Player? Ted, I guess when a cheaper competitor comes along we may see whether Nova needs this price. Since the first Mac came along with a price of $1995 when they had sought to get it in under $1000 I have found business decisions curious. Had Apple aske... | |
| What's your profession? Age? Okay, this discussion of the data forces me to update my profession and age. I am a retired professor of political science and 68. There is much travel in my future and the possibility that I might need another system for a second home where it is... | |
| The best speaker you ever heard? Sphere, I can believe your experience. It suggests that even expensive speakers are substantial compromises. This certainly goes along with my experiences.I certainly cannot agree that the MBL 101s are even very good speakers, much less "live musi... | |
