| New expensive power cord for amp and no change in sound? Now that we have solved the power cord dilemma, let’s discuss something less controversial..like “climate change “. | |
| New expensive power cord for amp and no change in sound? @roxy1927 Since you mentioned Shunyata.. I believe that they have power systems which consists of power cables and a conditioner. I really never had much of an expectation of replacing one power cable at a time and noticing a difference, so I to... | |
| Comparing Aurender N20 vs eversolo dmp A8 @saurabhgarg @lalitk is a great resource of all things audio, especially cabling. @blisshifi is another great resource. My profile has my setup for power and AES between Holo May DAC KTE and the N20. I preferred AES over USB. I like my result... | |
| What About LiFePO4 Batteries and Pure Sine Wave Inverters? For the few that care, I’m getting almost eight hours of play time on my 300ah battery. You can see my equipment associated with my profile. My charger is controlled by a KASA wall outlet. It charges and then provides a trickle charge. I turn it o... | |
| Speakers, floor standing or Bookshelfs I thought about this a good bit a few years ago when I was putting my system together. My previous couple of systems consisted of floor standing speakers and subwoofers. I think that what @ghdprentice says above is mostly where I’m at now. My f... | |
| Looking for the next level in imaging... @mijostyn I want to hear exactly what is in the recording. I do not want to hear any editorialization by the room. How is this possible without attending the recording session? Don’t we want a presentation that we consider natural and represe... | |
| Looking for the next level in imaging... @polkalover What happens when you remove the table sitting between the listener and the speakers? I recognize that this is not a spouse approved move, but it might provide a no cost improvement. As mentioned above in reference to another poster... | |
| Looking for the next level in imaging... @toddalin hear what imaging is all about. Sure would be nice if we could see what components produce such imaging. Please post your components and maybe room photos with your profile. Thanks.,. | |
| Aurender n200, talk me out of signing on the dotted line My vinyl is fine so maybe the cable or break in? A treated room can be useful, but given that you like your vinyl, something else might be at work. Another issue with any of our suggestions is that we all have different taste, differing level... | |
| How can I measure the noise on my AC mains with a 2ch oscilloscope? @badbruno Are you really interested in answering the questions posed in your starter post, or are you interested in your system sounding more like live music? | |
| How can I measure the noise on my AC mains with a 2ch oscilloscope? Power doesn’t make a difference crowd is counter to my experience. Two caveats here, my experience is limited to my local power and secondly, I haven’t tried a Honda generator. The greatest improvement to my system was the addition of the Shunyata... | |
| How can I measure the noise on my AC mains with a 2ch oscilloscope? Like Jason said. Power doesn't matter. Hook it up to a honda generator. It'll be fine. 🤣 It’s surprising that Honda didn’t have a booth at Axpona. | |
| Records not stored vertically for decades I stored my records vertically for two decades, and I think that the only issue was some of the cover art was faded. Personally, I would be a little bit more concerned about heat and humidity than vertical versus horizontal but what do I know? A ... | |
| 300B SET Amp driving Wilson Sabrinas The CDC is a totally lost cause. To this day I listen to music wearing a mask and staying six foot from others. The issue here is separating the agenda from the objective. | |
| If you have a nice system why do you really need room treatments? Yes, system posted and a picture of your room so that we can see your acoustic treatment. |
