| CDs And Green Markers. Please Don’t Laugh. @buddyboy1 You are correct regarding the non smooth surface, but as I mentioned all RXs oxidize eventually. The issue then is laser scatter. New Dark Matter is by far the best answer once the disc has been properly cleaned | |
| CDs And Green Markers. Please Don’t Laugh. @aldnorab Interesting. Sounds like you are an ideal candidate to try Machina Dynamica New Dark Matter. I wrote about it the other day Also I wash all new cds with a DROP of organic soap and distilled/RO water in a dish barely covering the cd... | |
| The Best Preamp is no Preamp? Over the many decades I have owned various passive pres, autoformers, stepped attenuaters, dedicated preamps/dacs (tube/ss), and for a couple years now, what I think is the best opf them all: Audio Alchemy DDP-1 + PS 5 (PS -5 being essential to op... | |
| CD transports; do they really matter Audiolab 6000CDT has a buffer which helps considerably MSRP ~ $700 | |
| Your single most significant purchase mistake? @zavato sweet Avatar Rogue M150 monoblocks. I had both cryoed KT 6550 and EL 34 tubes, Harmonic Resonance boards + Stillpoints and Risers high quality PCs, DHL Silversonic XLRs, HQ PLC, 20amp dedicated line. No matter what I tried they sounded... | |
| CDs And Green Markers. Please Don’t Laugh. First I went to the Disc Sox www. What a poorly designed site. Line drawings do not convey what the product actually looks like. A YouTube video would be nice Which product did you buy? As to greening, a vastly superior way of maximizing every CD... | |
| Recommended Power Amps For Focal Sopra 2 Towers. $10K Budget. GO I think you will be blown away at the sound/dollar if you get the LSA Voyager GaN 350 (dual mono). MSRP $3000, but selling new at $2500! I replaced a 2+Xs the wpc EVS 1200 (dual mono). Not only is the Voyager a more complete sounding amp, it sound... | |
| Question about Class A Investigate GaN amps first. There are several threads on AG that should prove helpful (one is mine). As I recall, at least one person preferred the LSA Voyager GaN amp to Nelson Pass, PLUS, GaN runs cool (less electricity) and Underwood sells them... | |
| CLASS D MONO AMPS buy ATMASPHERE MUSIC SYSTEMS @twoleftears "If anybody could get both amps in the same room at the same time, then they would really have my attention." Indeed! I would also add the LSA Voyager 350 @ 3+ times the wattage but has an MSRP of $3000, though usually available f... | |
| Harbeth again…or other speakers for acoustic music? Open Baffle tend to be very good at this, as they eliminate cabinet resonances inherent in most box speaker designs | |

| Power Cable Suggestions Needed I had several Cullen PCs, well made, BUT... I have a couple WireWorld Electra 7s that Im no longer using (MSRP @ $240), I haven't listed them, but Im sure we can work something out if interested | |
| Spatial M3 Sapphire or Klipsch Forte 4 It’s mostly the amp. I too have OBs, in my case Emerald Physics 3.4s (concentric 1" polyester in a 12" woofer) and my room is ~ 35 x 20 x 12’ peak in an open beam ceiling. Front wall is ~ 80% glass and rear wall is 100% glass. A tough room to get ... | |
