| Dedicated 20 Amp Line for Audio Another option: https://www.vhaudio.com/wire.html#bulkacwire VH Audio sells cryogenic treated 10 awg romex wire. It's a lot more expensive, but if you want the best that's the way to go. I am not currently running cryo-romex in my setup at th... | |
| Dedicated 20 Amp Line for Audio Both of those on the opposite rails to that of "noisier" items on the panel. that's fine, but make sure your 20A audio lines are ON THE SAME 110V RAIL/LEG. Also, I would not use 14/2 Romex or stranded wire. You really need 10/2 Romex (Romex i... | |
| Need your recommendation on a 5 or 7 channel amp @wheelndeal1099 - interesting. I would like to hear your thought once you get the 3300 burned in. I'm wondering if you might feel somewhat of a mismatch here. The PS Audio BHK is a nice amp, but it's somewhat on the mild side (unless you replac... | |
| Ready For Digital Source...Computer? @high-amp - Ah, I did not know you already had an LPS. I looked up the 100W HDPLEX. It will handle a 5A continuous load on the 19V output, so it should be fine for the Roon Nucleus. The Keces P8 might be better since it has a larger power suppl... | |
| Ready For Digital Source...Computer? If you deciede on the Roon Nucleus, get a linear power supply for it. I would recommend the Keces P8 at this point because the Roon can draw up to 65 watts (3.5A). The P8 has a large enough power supply to keep up with this draw. I do not recom... | |
| Midbass under 100$ I totally agree with knotscott. The Concertino had excellent resolution in the mids and upper mids. It has a rich tangy sound to the midrange texture (it's hard to describe). To reproduce this is going to be very hard. The best I can come up wi... | |
| Help Please:Upgrade Coax cable between Node 2i and Chord Qutest..? I have done a lot of testing and experimentation with digital COAX S/PDIF cables. I have owned the DH Labs D-750 cable. It is a very good cable for the money, excellent bass. However, you have two things going against you. The .5 meter cable i... | |
| Tyler Acoustics Highland H3.5 or Focal Aria 936 What electronics and cable are you using? I'm going to comment based on my experience with different types of drivers. The Focal Aria use their new flax/fiberglass drivers for mids and woofers. These are warmer and have more body than the previ... | |
| Midbass under 100$ "Midbass under $100" is going to be a serious challenge. That being said, the parts-express link that oldhvymec provided is a good place to look. The Dayton drivers are actually very nice for the money and sound very good for what you spend. Gr... | |
| Bluesound Node (2021) PS upgrade to Teddy Pardo; is it worth it? What digital coax cable are you using? | |
| Ready For Digital Source...Computer? There are going to be people like boomerbillone everywhere. Not everyone is going to be chasing the best music server and for him, a general purpose computer is more than good enough. That being said, if your system has the resolution, you will b... | |
| Bluesound Node (2021) PS upgrade to Teddy Pardo; is it worth it? It depends on your system (amp/speakers), but if your system has enough resolution, it will definitely show a difference when you upgrade a streamer/transport with a linear power supply - even if you just use it to send digital coax signals. As f... | |
| Jcat netcard XE and USB PINK FAUN on which PCIE ports? Sorry, I can't remember. It might have been in some forum thread (maybe in the audiophilestyle.com forum). Take it with a grain of salt. It might be best just to try on your own. That being said, the most important part of implementing these c... | |
| Balanced XLR cables I will have to disagree on one aspec of atmosphere’s discussion: The balanced line system was created to get rid of interconnect cable colorations. It works really well! I have tested many different XLR cables and they all will contribute a ce... | |
| Bluesound Node (2021) PS upgrade to Teddy Pardo; is it worth it? I don't want to discourage you with my comment. The Teddy Pardo is a great product and if do the Teddo Pardo upgrade to your Bluesound, it will definitely be a significant upgrade in sound quality. At £400, it will be money well spent. You wou... |
