| System Components are Warm but Synergy is Bright? I'd have to hear what your definition of bright is? And I agree cables as tone controls is never a good idea. | |
| Want to experience tubed CDP? The Minimax is one of my favorites in price performance, but the Lector just doesn't sound digital. It's much more coherent with more analog type air surrounding the instruments. Once you get familiar with the sound, it's difficult to go back to e... | |

| CD/SACD Players with volume control under 4K? Try the Consonance SACD 2.0Plays Redbook magically and the SACD is noticably better. This is one of my favorite players.

| Monoblocks- different power cord length It depends on your definition of problem.The same model power cord of different lengths does in fact sound different. You'll find that the longer the run the better. I've confirmed this the first time I heard this with Synergistric Research. The e... | |
| Need a new amp for Von Schweikert VR4 jr's The Audible Illusions is very musical and has plenty of texture. But teaming it with a tube amp may not give you the slam you're looking for.For something that doesn't have much sound of it's own try one of these Digital amps. Spectron, Bel Canto.... | |
