| B&W CDM9NT vs Dynaudio Focus 260II OK. So far the opinions are for the Dyns. Just what I though! I like the B&Ws, but I think the Dyns will be more musical with more bass slam. Thanks for your comments! | |
| B&W CDM9NT vs Dynaudio Focus 260II My wrong. I meant Dynaudio 220II, | |
| RCA vs optical cable? Loomishohnson you got my question right. Thank you Kal for pointing out that RCA cables do no have an impedance of 75 ohms. I just wanted to see if I could get away not expending some money in a digital cable. Thank you for your responses! | |
| Benchmark DAC 1 as preamplifier?? An old Adcom pre gtp-350!! Before I was using a Bel canto SETi integrated amp and a Primare I21 integrated. I still have to use the dac 1 with the Bel canto. | |
| Benchmark DAC 1 as preamplifier?? Well I decided to get the dac 1 to feed the rotel´s. The results are a lot better than I expected! Better highs, mids and the bass is more relaxed and articulated. The sound in my system improved in every way. Better and wider soundstage. Very cle... | |

| CD direct to monobloks? Well I tried the variable output from the Primare I21, the sound was thin and compressed. Then I feed the amps direct from the Shanling, with the same result. In the end the best sound I got is from the pre Adcom GTP-350. Not bad all all! Still I ... | |

| Thoughts on 845 set monoblocks My only experience with 845 amps is with the Bel Canto SETi40 which I like a Lot, especially with 845B tubes! Anyone can give his/her opinion about this amp? | |
| Two physical grounds?? Thank you all for your responses! As some of you guessed right the house is very old with just 2 prong sockets (ungrounded). However, I know that there is a ground bar at the fuse box which would be very difficult to fish in order to tie the two g... | |
| Distance from the front not the rear wall? Thanks for your comments! Well I just read the article suggested by Pcoombs and goes against the comments above given! In this paper it is suggested that the lisener chair be located against the rear wall!! Can someone explain who is right? | |
| Burn-in time for a Shuguang 845B tube? Sorry to hear that! In my case the originals tubes are Sino 845 and the replacements are Shuguang 845B (I guess Shuguang makes them for Sino). So far the difference is notable in all regards: soundstage, bass, definition, etc. I hope that as time ... | |
| Burn-in time for a Shuguang 845B tube? Amfibius,Besides the Shuguang 845 T tubes do you any experience with some others 845 tubes burn in time? | |
| Burn-in time for a Shuguang 845B tube? Well I just past the 50 hr mark and the sound started to open up, the rought edges are (almost) gone, but I think the biggest improvement is in the soundstage area! The music is wide, tall and deep as it suppose to be! I guess a few more hours sho... |
