| Warm copper speaker cables under $500 new I've been very happy with my Pear Comice speaker cables. I think you can pick up a pair on auction for a decent price that is well under your budget. | |
| Do I need a power cable - if so what brand? Dedicated lines (at least two) will yield a lot of improvement, Thorman is right on with this suggestion. Get the power right and proceed from there.Next make sure you treat your room, even if it's just addressing the 1st reflection point.Then sta... | |
| Recommended power cords with Musical Design amps Thanks David. I actually spoke with John H. and we talked about the upgrade path for my amp (D-140i) that takes it to the D-150B status. I'm eventually going to send it in for the upgraded circuit boards and at that time, I'll also replace certain... | |
| Does anyone do speaker mods? Wireless,I would respectfully disagree. Klipsch speakers with upgraded xovers almost always sell for more than a non-upgraded Klipsch speaker (everything else being equal).Another thing to consider here (specifically with Klipsch speakers), it tha... | |
| Blu Ray or Oppo? I agree with KennyT, you don't need BR ver2.0. Get yourself a BR player with the Silicon Optix REON/Realta processor chip and enjoy! | |
| Does anyone do speaker mods? S7,For the majority of speakers, we're talking about a few screws and a positive and negative wire to each speaker piece (tweeter, mid, woofer, etc.)I don't think that's very difficult. You just have to make sure that you label the positive and ne... | |
| In-Wall Long Runs of Speaker Cable As Eldartford said, make sure that it's certified for in-wall use. I bought a 150ft spool of in-wall Monster wire for $15. Honestly, for rear channels, I don't think that you need to spend a lot of money. | |
| Does anyone do speaker mods? S7horton, you're right, there's a difference. Just to clarify, my upgrading only consists of replacing selected parts with the same values, just much better parts. I choose the parts based on what the customer wants and how far they want to take t... | |
| Transmission line speakers - great with tubes I think it may have come across the wrong way. I'm just very surprised that the TL speakers that I used with my SET and pP tube amp worked so well together. I thought the 89DB sensitivity would cause problems. The TL speakers are definitely not as... | |
| The SET amp question. I would also put the late John Hogan SET's on your short list. I've owned two (one was a 2A3 & 45 and the other that I still own is a 300B), both bought without hearing first, and can only be described as AMAZING! I used both with my 99DB and ... | |
| Does anyone do speaker mods? I upgrade speaker crossovers. | |
| Eichmann Bayonet plugs user experience I just bought some Eichmann Bayonet plugs for some speaker termination. My biggest complaint and the reason I would never buy them again, is that they were extremely difficult to fit into the speaker connectors on both my speakers and amp. | |
| Does anyone out there NOT hear a difference in CD I was very please with the smoother and warmer sound of my stock EAD CD-1000 mkIII compared to my previous Parts Connextion modded Music Hall CD-25. The MH CD-25 was very, very bright but excelled in details.Then I modded my EAD CD-1000 mkIII with... | |
| Would classic klipsch work here? While I don't own a pair of Cornwall's, I do own a pair of Chorus II's and they are great for rockin' out. You should also consider the KLF (20 or 30). The KLF Legend series was their best rock n' roll speaker IMHO. As the others have mentioned Fo... | |
| Best place for a Bybee power cord Hi Rkmcv,Thanks for the response. I've learned a couple of things about my specific Bybee power cord. It's a low-current power cord and per Mr. Bybee, it should be used on source/front-end components or amps lower than 100watts. It uses copper rib... |
