| Low freq rumble, and using a KAB Subsonic filter. Does the noise vary with volume or is it just fixed no matter what the volume? | |
| Krell KRC3 low volume / low output voltage ? I just thought of something you may want to try. Sometimes components have things like buttons and dip switches, either internally or externally, that are used for various reasons. (set gain, bal/se...). I would definitely take the top cover off y... | |
| Any experience with Esoteric K-05? I haven't heard the K-05 but I can tell you that your Cary is an extremely good unit. I wouldn't even consider getting rid of it unless you're absolutely sure that you would like the K-05. | |
| Krell KRC3 low volume / low output voltage ? "So my first post is about an issue with krell preamps, especially the KRC3, which is my actual preamp. It appears that I have to crank up the knob to get a loud volume."So what you're saying is that you have to turn up the volume to make the syst... | |
| Best power cord for digital JPS Labs Digital AC-X. Its just what you're looking for. | |
| Phono interconnect under $500 used Atmasphere,"The phono cartridge is a balanced source. If you are able to run it balanced, it will have the same benefits that balanced line was created for- immunity to cable colorations."Are you suggesting that running a fully balanced cable conn... | |
| Bi-wiring with different cables for HF and LF? Ozzy,"I don't agree that stranded copper provides better bass than solid wire."I meant that as just a general statement based on my own experience. You are correct, though. I'm sure some solid core designs may perform better. I prefer SC myself. | |
| need help with outdoor system Given the nature of this web site, can you clarify something? Are you going for really good, audiophile type sound quality or do you just need to get music outside for something to listen to? Also, since the speakers will be outside, how much bass... | |
| Cables more hype than value? I'm somewhat reluctant to admit I once had a $5000 watch, as well. It made me feel guilty every time I wore it. I ended up getting rid of it and buying a pair of cables with the money. The guilt just went away. | |
| Phono interconnect under $500 used This is one of those cases where you really need to call The Cable Company. You can have them send out a bunch of different cables so you can try them in your system, side by side. I've used them many times and feel its well worth the effort. | |
| Bi-wiring with different cables for HF and LF? If you are going to experiment using silver cables for your bass run, I'll offer a suggestion. Since silver is expensive, and you don't have your mind made up as to what will work best (I make that assumption based the fact you are experimenting),... | |
| Cables more hype than value? Jmyc,I just read my last post. How I worded it sounds a little negative and/or challenging. I didn't mean to give that impression. I'm just interested as to how you came to that conclusion with regard to the Mogamy cables. | |
| Lore vs Vandersteen ICi vs Ohm Walsh Talls Sunnyjim,I think I gave you the wrong idea in my first post. When I said that Vandersteen yells at everyone, I didn't mean that he was a bad guy, or anything like that. Most of the time, I think he's just kidding around. At some point, he usually ... | |
| Why can you buy a car at dealer Invoice but audio Onemug,"Now, use your imagination to its fullest and guess what jewelry dealers pay."Good call. My best friends family business. A word of advice: ALWAYS make sure there are batteries in the diamond tester. | |
| RCA Interconnect suggestions RCA I just said this in a different post, but its worth repeating here. You're asking too much of your cables. Looking at the qualities you lay out in your original post, it would probably be best to upgrade one of your other components. You have a mu... |
