Accustic Arts


Does anybody have any experience with the new Drive 1-MK2 and the DAC 1-MK4? Your opinions please.

Thanks

Tbg was there that much of a difference once you put the IsoClean fuses in?

What was the noticeable difference?

I actually have not yet tried changing any fuses yet.

Ron the guy I met recently told me if I wanted a good bang for my buck was to get some HiFi Tuning fuses, he said he that he prefered them over the IcoClean fuses.

I have not tried either as of yet so I don't know.

Anyone else who has tried these fuses or any others if you could describe the benefits over the stock L-cheapos that are standard in the units.

Teajay have you changed these fuses?

I have heard that the Halcyonics is suppose to be great isolation platform so I can only imagine the improvement you must be getting from using them.

How many hours do you have on your "AA" pieces now?

Are you enjoying them?
Dev, I have only tried one HiFi Tuning fuse relative to the IsoCleans. It may have been that the IsoClean had been in use for some time before the HiFi Tunings became available, but I thought the HiFi Tuning was little different from the original fuses. The IsoClean sound more authoritative especially in the bass, if it is inserted in the right direction. Also the top end is more accurate on brass in particular.

Yes, the IsoCleans make a very noticable improvement, again if insert in the right direction.

My Accustic Arts pieces have nearly two weeks on them.
The AA is the best I have heard. Has someone auditoned or own the AA and found something better? If there is something better, and if someone has come to that conclusion after hearing the AA, I liked to know. Sort of ridiculous to call $13,000 worth of equipment as a great deal, but in the SOTA realm, these things seem to be a screaming "deal". But, I'm open to other opionions. What is clear to me is that anyone seeking the best should at least be familar with the AA studd - it is that food IMHO.

Optarchie, I have heard that this player is suppose to be good but have not heard anyone comparing it up against the "AA" combo as of yet.

By making your statement are you suggesting that you have? if so what were the difference.
