Listening Fatigue & Speakers in Small Room
Rlb61, my room is very similar in size to yours except that the wall behind the listening position is only 3" tall. Behind that is my family room and kitchen. I use monitors and will adding a sub soon. I am in the process of treating my room. So f... 
Analyzing the power from the outlet
mceljo, I dont pretend to be an expert on electrical matters but your example makes sense to me. My only thought on why getting a dedicated line + an AC regenerator would offer benefits is that by supplying cleaner power and grounding, the regener... 
Entreq Silver Tellus grounding/earthing system
Thank you again gbmcleod! It's great that you hear a major difference when used with the PS Audio unit. It seems our system is similar in the sense that we also use an integrated. What is the RCA to spade connector and why is it needed?As for Stil... 
Room Treatment Surprise
Drummermitchell...i am considering RealTraps MiniTraps or MondoTraps as bass traps for my small listening room. Which would you suggest? 
Taralabs cables
Hi gang...its been a while but I wanted to report back on my recently acquired The 2 Extended with HFX Grounding Station. By now I have at least 300 hours on them. To my tastes, these are the best ICs I have ever tried (and I have tried a lot incl... 
Why Merlins sound better then Sonus Faber
Unistar, music is so subjective so its always impossible to say anyone component is better than another, regardless of price. Some people like the Sonus Faber sound (I being one of them). Some people love the resolution and speed of Magico, others... 
Entreq Silver Tellus grounding/earthing system
Thank you gbmcleod! I havent pulled the trigger yet on the Minimus. I also use Stillpoints in my system. I found that they only improved the sound when placed under my PS Audio P3 ac regenerator. The Stillpoints did nothing when placed under my Lu... 
Mad Scientist "NEO" Power Cord Review
Ozzy, what did adding a magnet to the disks do? And I have not ordered the PCs yet. I am thinking I am going to order some of the disks first and play around with them. 
Mad Scientist "NEO" Power Cord Review
Ok I got the free disks and must say I am impressed with the improvement I got after placing them on the + side of my speaker cables closest to the amp. I am not saying the differences are huge but I did notice a little improvement in a sense of r... 
Analyzing the power from the outlet
like Truman, I use a PS Audio regenerator (the P-3) and the results have been incredible. Getting clean, consistent power is now the basis from which I start any system I put together in the future. I want to add a dedicated line next with upgrade... 
Are music servers the future?
Agreed bandwidth is not a problem. I stream 1080p movies via wireless N from my cheapo, 5 year old Thecus N4100Pro NAS. On a side note, I was able to dramatically improve the performance of my wireless network by just adjusting the channel. 
Mad Scientist "NEO" Power Cord Review
I just requested the free disk. Looks like there is a little DIY too to show what their technology can do in a power cord so I will try that as well. 
Esoteric K-01 and Mac music server
Just out of curiosity (not trying to start a war on this) but I am curious about the opinions expressed that using a USB converter is better than going USB direct. Wouldnt it really depend on the USB implementation? I am big fan of simplifying my ... 
Line Magnetic owners...how quiet are they?
Old thread but I am very interested in getting a Line Magnetic 518IA to drive my Sonus Faber Evolutions. Worried whether it will have enough power though. 
Entreq Silver Tellus grounding/earthing system
Gbmcloed...i am very curious to hear your thoughts as I was thinking about getting one as well. I understand there is a money back guarantee so I may just pull the trigger anyway.
