| About the cheapest cable elevators (for those with empty pockets) I'm afraid someone is going to tell me they resonate like foam in a Poang chair. | |

| What are important features in a listening chair New listening chair arrived, it's a reupholstered and spruced up Room and Board rocker, spent ~2 hours in it last night and have yet to do an a/b comparison with the Poang, partly bc the new chair is way too comfy, partly because I feel no vibrati... | |
| PS Audio Perfect Wave DAC upgrade to DSD? cal3713 - talk about striking a chord! The first response I got when I posted on the Thiel Users thread was an enthusiastic "upgrade your crossovers!" Tom Thiel (Jim's brother), Beetlemania, a couple other happy modders are fine tuning the desig... | |
| AudioQuest Niagara 1000 Any comparisons between the 1000 and 1200? There looks to be about $500 difference (used 1000 vs new 1200), I don't need the extra high current capability now, is there any other functional/design difference? What about outcome in SQ? | |
| PS Audio Perfect Wave DAC upgrade to DSD? Lots of good advice, thanks all. About a year ago, after putting this first system together, I came up with the following long term plan, based in part on other posts and responses and reviews etc, with the goal being to slowly improve SQ altoget... | |

| Dumped the rack Oranges and apples, maybe - I don't have a TT, digital only, I have a cheap media table I used as a rack, thought the tube amp was already well isolated, but my results were like yours, great improvement when I removed the table and put things on ... | |
| upgrade from Devore Nines Don't you hate lack of responses? I can't help you with your question, but as someone who has the Devore Nines in their sights as a next speaker to try (in about a year), I am curious what got you to this speaker and also would you consider the O... | |
| Most useful tweaks that are sensible and really make a noticeable improvement Speaker placement and first reflection points - of course. Isolating the tube amp was huge for me. Following many of the Jim Smith/Getting Better Sound recommendations also very helpful, for me the biggest was getting rid of the rack on the fron... | |
| What are important features in a listening chair Btw the foam in the Poang cushion does resonate. Not sure what frequency but can feel it when spls get to about 90dB. I can feel it with my hand. | |
