| Would you like to know about Dunlavy mods? Ferrous materials around the magnetic structure (other than the pole piece} will interfere with the lines of flux.The difference I heard when I subsituted the brass machine screws was a smoother,quieter sound, less apparent hash, lower distotion,w... | |
| Would you like to know about Dunlavy mods? No, I did neither of those mods.I feel that if you did those type of changes you would change the time alignment.I do not have the means to measure time offset.Actually the crossover upgrades and the removal of all the steel from the around the co... | |

| Power cords for BAT-VK60 mono amps I have used Sonoran Plateau power cable on a BAT VK30SE. with spectacular results. Extremely low noise floor because of its final micro-bearing shielded layer. Wildly dynamic, requires significant break in time.Well worth the wait! | |
| Do power conditioners really help? They sucked the air right out of my audio system! I have tried the Grey stuff, various Monster products, as well as MIT. They all to some worsening degree, degraded my audio only set up. I have 3 dedicated lines and now only use the Sonoran Platea... | |
