| Sony SCD-XA5400ES-Best SACD for under $10,000 I have the Bybee upgrade and it is good. But if you want an incredable upgrade, address you ac with balanced conditioning. The soundstage just keeps getting bigger and bigger. | |
| Jethro Tull...any cd's to stay away from? Thanks for the website Mapman. I've been looking for a guide to prog. I'm getting old and I'm out of touch in the music scene. | |

| sound difference MIT ORACLE AC1 vs ELROD vs PURIST I echo Caliaripaolo. I put an EPS-3 in place of the 2 on my amp and there was a noticable improvement in energy, attack and bass. I then put the EPS-2 on my CD players tube output stage and was blown away by the soundstage improveents. I'll be get... | |
| BPT 3.5, Audience aR12, or Equitech 1.5Q? The improvements are not small. Bigger than a component upgrade. | |
| Upgrading Fuses I went ahead and purchased the Supreme fuse for my CDP. I had a gold HiFi fuse in it and the new fuse was much better. More open and airy in the soundstage. The highs are more extended and very smooth. The speed and attack increased also. The bass... | |

| Long Power Cord Runs I agree with Stanwal. | |
| Speaker rec for difficult placement $1,000 You might consider a used pair of Tekton design Lore's.Or a new pair of Mini Lore's. Very good speaker w/front porting.Easy placement. | |
| Lamm ML 1 best power cable I think Elrod power cords are incredibly good. The best I've ever heard in my system. A friend and I compared a LessLoss to the Elrod and the LessLoss showed it weekness in both of our systems. And LessLoss is a very hot item right now. There is n... | |
| RFI Interference Shielded interconnects would be a first step.Good luck. | |
| can we still sort by zip code in items for sale? Yes. My system is not accessible either. I have emailed about the problem.The best I can figure is that they're still in Beta and working the bugs out. And they're limiting any contact so to have complete control. I don't like the change, but it i... | |
| What does the term rolled off highs mean ? This term means that you can't hear the cymbles extension as well as if you didn't have rolled of highs. | |
| Is it save to convert XLR to RCA? There is no benefit going XLR to RCA. The 4V you get from balanced XLR is voided when going to RCA.You wont damage any equip., but you wont get the benefit of balanced XLR. In your case, RCA to RCA is the right way to go.JohnJW Audio |
