| REVIEW: Soundsmith Denon DL103 RL - a new appreciation you say? - You got that right :-)My vinyl has never sounded this good and I'm buying more new vinyl as a result.Regards... | |
| Upgrading interconnects Take a look at the KLE Innovations cables.I've tried most of their cables and all of their RCA's and I haven't found anything that can compete, especially at the price.I compared the gZero3 with a silver Kimber Kable XLR on a 50k system, and the g... | |
| Crossovers Steve - also take the opportunity to assess the state of the internal wires.Copper Quality has come a long way since they were built and it may be advantageous to rewire them as well, but don't go overboard with really heavy gauge wire.Something l... | |
| Audiomods Series 3 Review Since the last post I've upgraded... - the cartridge to a Soundsmith DL103- the RCA's on the one piece harness to KLEI Absolute Harmony- the interconnects from phono to amp to KLEI gZero20 What an upgrade - this arm is performing way above it's pr... | |
| Crossovers Steve - I just remembered I also had to have a couple of the heavy duty resistors replaced - they were looking "well worn" - but they we're cheap compared to the caps.Regards | |
| Best Dac under $600... New or used I second the Bifrost - with the UBER upgrade - have one - love it!!! | |
| Large banana plugs for 10 awg speaker cable Take a look at Furez products - I've used them on my 10 gauge cables they perform great. | |
| Crossovers I had all the Caps changed in the x-overs of a 30 year old set of speakers - replaced them with Mundorf caps.Cost $250 for both x-oversAs long as the speaker surrounds are in good shape you won't be wasting your money - I had to have my speaker su... | |
| Copper®Harmony RCA Plug - a new breed Sb, - I think I may have observed something similar.... On a couple of Police tracks it did seem as though the bass drum was quieter, until I realized that the image had deepened considerably and the bass drum was now further towards the rear of t... | |
| Enhancing online radio station sound options Ptss - sorry, have no listening experience with the Oppo. A friend has one and he likes it a lotThe base Bifrost is very good, but if you treat it to good interconnect and power cables it is exceptional. Very high resolution, fast dynamics and cav... | |
| Copper®Harmony RCA Plug - a new breed Sbrownnw - One other thing to consider might be speaker position.Perhaps making the speakers slightly wider might assist with the image.Also, front to back placement might also make a difference.The KLEI RCA's do make the image wider and deeperIf ... | |
| Copper®Harmony RCA Plug - a new breed Sbrownnw - I took a detailed look at the electrical specs of the Mogami (I should have done that first) and I didn't see a problem with them - very similar to many other good interconnect cables - except the capacitance was 1/3 of other cables I h... | |
| Copper®Harmony RCA Plug - a new breed Sbrownnw - I know you like mogami - and so do many others, but there could be architectural issues that may be causing your problems and the Copper Harmony are just bringing them to light.Maybe trying the Copper Harmony with a cable specifically d... | |
| Do You Use USB for Streaming? Steve N - I cannot agree more. Power is of prime importance.However, not everybody on this forum wants, needs or can afford a Ferrarri - some people will settle for a VW.But we all want to get past a GREMLIN :-) For the younger readers - A Gremlin... | |
| DAC improvements slowing down? Scvan - I see your point, but all I have to do is think back to my first PC with it's 16k of ram and 10 Mbyte hard drive - who could possibly want more than that :-) Once they get quatum computers on everyone's wrist our view of the "digital audio... |
