| What's a good power cord for conrad-johnson CT5? I thought I'd post a final update on my quest for the right power cord. Now that the CT5 has more than 1500 hours and I've updated the tubes, I decided to try a fully broken-in Python CX. It's a winner. It doesn't change the CT5's character;it jus... | |
| Moray James Digital Cable I have used a variety of Moray James digital cables in my sytem (Thiel CS3.7 speakers, conrad-johnon CT5 preamp, Meitner Bidat, CEC belt-drive transport, Shunyata cabling and power conditioning) and they all trounced digital cables by Kimber and H... | |
| Museatex Bitstream vs Bidat D160,Congrats. Again, please contact me if you ever see one for sale. | |
| Museatex Bitstream vs Bidat Mike,Sweet system! Love the Mac gear. I've got Thiel CS3.7's, Conrad-Johnson Ct5 preamp, Classe Delta 2200 amp and a CEC transport working with the Bidat and Bitstream. | |
| Museatex Bitstream vs Bidat D160,Those are very rare. I'd love to find one. Let me know if you ever see one for sale. | |
| Museatex Bitstream vs Bidat I use the Shunyta Python CX on both units and MJ's latest digital. I'm too poor to go up higher in the Shunyata line. Sigh. John has Moray's email or you can email me for it. I haven't found anything better than this combination with the Museatex ... | |
| Museatex Bitstream vs Bidat You're welcome, Mike. Let us know if you get the upgrade and what you think of it. | |
| Museatex Bitstream vs Bidat I'm sure John would never refer to them as "miracle mods" but they're enough a stride forward that I'm sending my Bidat in for the upgrade even though it was done in November of 09. As I understand it, the power upgrade discovery occured around Ja... | |
| Bidat vs Perfect Wave vs Weiss and others Tpaxadpom,I have a Bidat that has gone through two sets of Mods; one in late 2007 and one in December of 2009. Audiofun's unit was done in 2010, shortly after John made a power supply breakthrough. The difference between the first and second mods,... | |
| Bidat vs Perfect Wave vs Weiss and others Audiofun,Is the MSB unit you have the company's top-of-the-line configuration? Additionally, I'm assuming your most recent post applies to redbook only? | |
| Bidat vs Perfect Wave vs Weiss and others Audiofun,Thanks for the fascinating and detailed update. I had little doubt that the Bidat would have trouble keeping up in the hi rez domain. It just doesn't have the computing power. Not to take anything away from the fine work being done at MSB... | |
| Museatex Bitstream vs Bidat Slothman,This *is* an opportune time. John's breakthrough has to do with the power supply and some new caps, but the swagger over these mods is not just hype by niche users or people who can't afford "better." The changes can be appreciated in eve... | |
| Bidat vs Perfect Wave vs Weiss and others One man, two bidats...there must be a Chinese proverb about that.. | |
| Bidat vs Perfect Wave vs Weiss and others Audiofun,Not bad for a unit that ended production more than 14 years ago, nes pas? It's a classic hotrod and only gets better with time. There's one for sale right now; looks like it's in good condition and I can't believe no one's snapped it up yet. | |
| Museatex Bitstream vs Bidat Slothman,I just did a direct and lengthy A/B with my just modded bitstream and a low S/N bitstream that belongs to a friend here in St. Louis. He *loves* his bitstream but is packing it up this weekend for the mods. You lose none of the analog fla... |
