| Bass, more or less? Highs,mids,and bass without bass you are missing the power and majesty. Having a system with a great low end, I could never go back. It can be a pain to get it right,but once heard the sound is marvelous.Imagine listening to the king of instrument... | |
| Recording XM/Sirius Live broadcasts Finthen,It's always nice to hear that others share the same opinion. I hope Sirius/XM continue to improve the service.Cheers,Wave | |
| Recording XM/Sirius Live broadcasts Mumbles any cable should be a improvement over a stock cable. When I was trying different cables for the HD receiver connection the monster 2 was alot better then stock and the 3 was a big improvement over the 2 series. More depth,detail and dynam... | |
| Recording XM/Sirius Live broadcasts Mumbles,Now check to see what kind of Coax cable you have running to your HD receiver. If it is the stock crap that's provided with the receiver,replace it with a good aftermarket video cable. I use a Monster 3 type (don't laugh),you will gain dep... | |
| Recording XM/Sirius Live broadcasts Mumbles,On the DTV its channel 850,on XM it's 70 I beleive. My dac upsamples the signal now which it did not do for a period of time. Last nights broadcast was super, really glad to see Sirius/XM team up with the owner of DTV. Now only if they can... | |

| Is dirty power the culprit? I have experienced the same problem and yes it is power related. Do a little research on EMI/RFI rejection and implementing a "Star Ground" system circuit. I no longer have the seesaw effect. | |
| Tube blows Amplifier fuse....causes? "Did they test it on a tester or in a real circut that may push it to the limit? Testers rarely test at different maximum loads."Inquiring minds would like to know. I'm not one to crap in my oatmeal,but I question the sales people(company) for thi... | |
| Which has greatest influence? There are great amplifiers and great preamps. If I had only one choice it would be the preamp FWIW. | |
| How old is NBS? I purchased my first NBS cables in 1994-95 IIRC. The owner,designer was Walter Fields. Mr.Fields is still with the company but I think there are other principals now. Maybe others have more detailed info. | |

| Has anyone ever cried listening to your system I think a great attribute of a system is to convey emotion. Isn't that why the majority of us spend thousands?If Eva Cassidy and Judy Garland don't get it going, I don't know what will. | |
| Best CD Let me add Eva Cassidy's live at Blues Alley. Although not all the tracks are recorded at the same level,most are pure bliss. | |
| Best CD Give the Chandos recording of Carl Neilsen's "Alladin" a try,make sure it's the full version. It's got to be one of the greatest dynamic orchestral recordings ever made. On a big system it is a mind blower. Every time I listen, I don't know whethe... |
