| “Invest” in Tekton? be careful looking at specs and wanting to get the best based on those. i definitely hear what you're saying about not wanting to get a 'lesser' model and then a sub that would add up to the DI. the problem is the room. those big speakers might... | |
| “Invest” in Tekton? I was just thinking of mentioning a near field setup. Great minds.. apparently mediocre minds too! | |
| Placement tips for Synergistic Research HTFs Jkbtn - yeah, it’s a very subtle effect, much less noticeable than cable changes. If I had paid serious money for these, I’d be not very happy, or telling myself they work better than they do. Though maybe the official ones work better. Though I’m... | |
| “Invest” in Tekton? but listening to music on headphones is a completely different experience than listening through speakers. you don't feel headphones moving your body and the furniture. there's something to be said for that... | |
| Marantz 2270 Wish I still lived in Deutschland, I'd have you teach me! Thanks for bringing an old audio solider back from the brink. I bet that Marantz is happy to sing again. | |
| What speaker cable made a major difference in the sound quality of your speakers?? Edward- you are completely correct. Having components that play well together, well made speakers that the components can handle and acoustic treatment of the listening room all impact the sound of a system more than exotic cables will, as long as... | |
| Hearing is believing?........power cables....... @randy-11 want a hug? | |
| Hearing is believing?........power cables....... You're a pusher! I don't want to disassemble my current Interconnects to build new ones. I'd rather keep them to use between the DAC and pre. So I'll have to wait until I have the cash to buy a new set. If I totally love the helix ICs, then I'd co... | |
| Hearing is believing?........power cables....... @williewonka holy crap. I have blisters on my hand from making this last cord. Wrapping 12.5' of 12 gauge wire around a fiberglass rod 3 times is hard work. And I'm a rock climber!The helix cable was made with:: Silver plated copper sonarquest IEC... | |

| Ground Hum with Rega RP6, Exact and TT PSU. I only have an old P3 without the PSU it separate phono pre, but I do have a hum that increases as the cart approaches the spindle. I did two things to reduce it to the point that, if the volume is high enough to hear the hum from the listening po... | |
| Class D is just Dandy! @autre I won't pretend to be smarter than I am.. I don't understand why it matters either, but preamps have a characteristic output impedance and amps have a characteristic input impedance. If memory serves me right, the amp input imp should be 10... | |
| Vibration control inside a cabinet It definitely seems that one of the biggest challenges is, as Geoff suggested, putting these ideas all together in a stable manner that doesn't raise components so much that they no longer fit in the rack. | |
| Hum sound ..is it me or is it you? LOUD hum in system Ugh. That's rubbish. I feel like you're going beyond what you should. Used stuff is sold as is.. and the long delay before telling you about the problem is suspect.Good luck. | |
| Here is your Groovey-Lookin' Tube Amp I can't believe it's that cheap. Jeez |
