| The Horror He spoke about impedance matching and other things and said his system would please everyone. I did not say my system would please everyone. I wrote my system played all music genres equally well, which was the crux of my comment addressing the... | |
| The Horror Jim Smith offers StraightTalk live support sessions via phone or Zoom. I’d suggest scheduling an hour session with him. Provide him with your photos. I’ll bet he can improve your sound and you won’t need to spend a lot of money. | |
| Do you past equipment appear in your dreams? Sometimes a cigar is just a cigar Damn fine pull, @nonoise! Today’s Freud Post Insertion winner. | |
| Marantz SA10 sacd player While people can surmise that owners of SA-10 and Ruby have had laser issues and not post about them is fine. But it is not first-hand knowledge of such. I have a friend who bought an SA-10 from Music Direct last year. Within a month it was at ... | |
| An Amp Nobody Talks About, Bricasti Design You experienced Bricasti service, which is something many of us have touted about the company. When I reached out to Bricasti Design via email a year ago about upgrading a M1 DAC to M1 Series 2, it was Brian who responded and we had a terrific ex... | |
| Marantz SA10 sacd player I may have to contact stereo rehab about shipping them my unit IF ("IF" being the operative word) mine ever takes a dump Kaspar doesn’t accept long distance repairs. He insists on local only, where he can speak one-on-one with the customer, d... | |
| Spam Emails after posting in the forums. That’s an awesome snow globe! The Hawaiian Spam musubi shown in the photo is pretty tasty. Give it a try next time you’re in the islands. I’ve never received spam from anything connected with Audiogon, as far as I know. The best avoidance metho... | |

| Marantz SA10 sacd player Casper explain to me what need to be changed.He is legit. Charging me between $230 to $250. Very fair. Fair indeed! When Kaspar delivers a repair, he always connects the device to his system so the customer can hear it and see it’s fixed. So, ... | |
| Back to the DAC The DAC has 13 filters. Those will affect the sound characteristic. In general, Minimun filters sound slightly softer than Linear filters. | |
| Back to the DAC Oddly enough, so far, I have found that using the Coda pre-amp produced a better sound than that of the Bricasti. Not odd at all. It’s your ears and preferences that matter, and there’s no reason to feel compelled to explain your choice. Kudo... | |
| Marantz SA10 sacd player I suggest letting Kaspar do his job and resist giving him instructions. He is a very detail oriented person. He will take care of you. | |
| Marantz SA10 sacd player You’re welcome, @jayctoy. I hope things continue to work out favorably until you have a working SA10 again. Thanks also to @sharri for identifying the correct part and purchase resource. | |
| Marantz SA10 sacd player Since you’re going to Stereo Rehab to talk with Kaspar, I suggest taking the SA-10 and laser part. He will want to see the player and diagnose it while you’re there. This is his approach. It will also potentially save you an extra trip. | |
| Marantz SA10 sacd player I have been to live performances of concerts where some of the orchestra, or one singer, is in the balcony above and behind the ground-level seats in the concert hall. SACD should duplicate this. Immersive audio accomplishes this. It has little... |
