| Sellers adding for PayPal use is plainly BS wow, even I am amazed that that message got dumped by the admin. There was nothing inflammatory in the message and it was not attacking any user personally or impartially. | |
| Sellers adding for PayPal use is plainly BS Everyone has different thoughts, but whenever I see an ad that says "paypal add 3%", it leaves a really bad taste in my mouth. I would not buy anything from these sellers. Sellers - wake up! This is not something that will help you sell your stu... | |
| KLE Innovations Silver HarmonyRCA's - not silver eh? I have used the older original Eichmann silver bullet plugs. They were nice, but over the years I have moved on to different materials. I have found that silver is not my preference for sonic signature. Silver is good for compensating for a sys... | |
| KLE Innovations Silver HarmonyRCA's - not silver eh? KLE RCA plugs are a nice offering if you need something that is copper or silver-plated copper. At $79-109, this should not be looked at as a pure silver conductor. Silver-plated has some advantages to some people, but never as good as pure silv... | |
| Which one? The biggest difference is in weight. RZ920 is 35.9 lbs and the RZ1100 is 43 lbs. This tells me that the RZ1100 has a larger transformer (for better brute force power output). If your Mirage speakers were of lower impedance (such as 6 ohm or 4 o... | |
| Need cable to soften brightness just a little? @echolane - I have been out of town all week on business and haven't caught up.For digital COAX cable, the Blue Jean Beldon 1694A is actually a very excellent cable for the money:https://www.bluejeanscable.com/store/digital-audio/index.htm 6 foot ... | |
| Matching Speakers to amp I would only recommend an Odyssey stereo amp if it had the power supply updgrade (which the one on ebay does). The basic Odyssey Khartago only has 60,000uf capacitor bank (which is not much more than A23) and a small 400va transformer. | |
| Matching Speakers to amp Hey George. Yup, for those speakers I would probably pick the Parasound 2250 over the A23 (even though the A23 has XLR I puts and higher resolution), because of the larger power supply in 2250. Also, the 2250 is no slouch either.jbuhl, both the ... | |
| Matching Speakers to amp yes, but with the impedance challenges of the Focal and the fact that they usually sound thin/bright, I would think that you would want as hefty of a power supply as you could in the amp. The A23 is nice, but definitely not a strong amp in the po... | |
| Matching Speakers to amp The capacitors on that PS Audio 200c are likely so dried out they are failing to filter out the 60hz hum coming in from the A/C. That could be why you get that hum.I agree that the Rega is way too low power (only 60 watts?!?) for your speakers. ... | |
| Matching Speakers to amp @kosst_amojan - not entirely correct. The major problems with driving low impedance loads (such as .5 ohm or 1 ohm) are the power supply. Car audio is completely different because the power supply is a constant big 12V DC battery (and an alterna... | |
| Aurender N100H Mods I don't want to scare you, but you should know that the Seagate 4TB drives have a very high failure rate (upwards of 20-30% failure rate):https://www.backblaze.com/blog/hard-drive-failure-rates-q3-2017/ Even the DM000 model has a failure rate of 2... | |
| Digital Interface Yes, there are several DACs on the market that have jitter reduction and re-clocking or re-sampling. These can be good if you have a poor digital source, but in the end they are just a "fix a crappy signal" solution. They will never as good as whe... | |
| Need cable to soften brightness just a little? oh, and that Music Fidelity A3cr is one hell of a preamp! | |
| Need cable to soften brightness just a little? I have compared the Arcam and the Pioneer. All I have to do for a/b comparison is to mute one or the other. The Pioneer leaves the Arcam in the dust. The only difference is the Arcam is getting audio via HDMI, the Musical Fidelity/Pioneer by w... |
