| Standmount speaker suggestion I've had Reference 3A Reflectors for a few years now after downsizing from Legacy Focus and have no inclination to change. They are within your budget if you don't mind used. | |
| How remove odor from interconnect? Yes, that was my case also. I can't say for sure it was cologne but definitely a strong smell. I previously stated an aromatic smell, but the dictionary defines aromatic as a pleasant smell. After a few cycles of soaking with vinegar, rinsing a... | |
| Are there any recording artists you just can’t listen too? I grab the remote control as fast as I can whenever Bruce Springsteen or Tom Petty start playing. However, I did watch Springsteen's performance at the Democratic convention, and it was pretty sad. | |
| Seeking a Tube preamplifier There's a Backert Labs Rhumba Extreme right now on audiomart and you already have 12AU7 tubes. I doubt that it will be available very long. That's what I have. If you ever wanted to upgrade to a higher level, you could upgrade the caps to VH Au... | |
| How remove odor from interconnect? I'm giving @viridian 's vinegar suggestion a go. I remember years ago when I had rental properties that a previous tenant's hallway had a strong urine odor. I read that treating the area with a solution of baking soda and then later treating the... | |
| How remove odor from interconnect? @winoguy17 I noticed the smell when I opened the zip lock bag that they were sent in, but I assumed it was just temporary. I then listened to the cables and they sound fine. But when I walked into my listening room the next morning (a spare bedr... | |

| Seeking a Power Conditioner I recently picked up a used Shunyata Research Hydra Triton V3 that I am very impressed with. It uses passive filtration. The sound quality improvement was immediately apparent. I began researching power conditioners when it was obvious to me th... | |
| What is the science behind audiophile fuses? @mitch2 Actually the Grimm MU2 does come supplied with an IR sensor. You might be interested in downloading the software and hardware manual from Grimm's web site under the "downloads" tab which gives detailed explanations for volume control via ... | |
| Help for me, money for you. You said "At one time, the system worked flawlessly but problems arose." Roon does automatic backups. If you have a backup dated when it worked flawlessly, try a restore of the backup. | |
| Where to purchase cables? DH Labs Silver Sonic Cables with a 30-day trial. | |
| High end bookshelf speakers for Small room I'll also recommend the Reference 3A Reflectors based on your room size and listening preferences. I downsized my listening room (13 x15), and my Legacy Focus speakers were just too overwhelming. The stand-mount Reflectors worked perfectly. I t... | |
