Hi-Fi Tunig Fuses & Parasound A21
@indranilsen - Let us know the results.  It's good that you're trying one fuse.  Every audiophile fuse has their own sonic character.  The Hi-Fi Tuning fuses use silver and gold in their fuse elements and end-caps (in different variations/combinat... 
Krell technical support
Both myself and an acquaintance of mine had opposite experiences with Krell support years ago. It could be that your Foundation is still a current product, or it could be that Krell support has changed, or it could entirely depend on which staff y... 
Sony Hapz1es or blue sound.......
Wow, doing a Google search for "Sony HAP-Z1ES" brings up an Audiogon ad in the Shop Now section on the right!  When did this happen?!? 
White Noise
That's very interesting, ricred1. 
Frequency response to 100k +/_ 1.5db?
Yes, it is a little ridiculous as far as audible sounds being reproduced. The key thing here is that the resonance frequency of the diamond material is so high that it will not cause any resonance/ringing/distortion down in the audible range (like... 
Mogami wire quality?
This is sort of an unfair comparison.  Mogami is a good manufacturer of pro-audio cables (which is a different industry).  In this industry, the goal is to make a durable cable that works well in live or even recording studio situations.  They are... 
Don't think my preamp likes feeding signal to two seperate places.
I have read in another thread that the multiple outputs on ARC preamps are just additional outputs that are all wired directly to the single analog stage in the ARC.  In other words, this is no better than using a Y-splitter cable to feed both the... 
Best sounding transistors
@dhl93449 - thanks for the added information. I did preface my comments on the offset adjustment for FET transistors was specifically when used in an input stage - such as comparator circuit or a discrete operation amp circuit, where you need an e... 
White Noise
I don't think getting a better cable will help because the cable will still transmit whatever is in the signal (including the hiss).   
White Noise
Quick question - is this white noise a "hiss" or a "buzz" type of sound? If it’s a buzz type of sound, that means you have some sort of ground loop problem going on. If it’s a hiss type of sound, then it’s a problem with gain and receiver signal-t... 
Most detailed budget power cord under 150$ used?
And yes, the connector will influence the sound just as much as the type of wire conductors.Second thought - the DIY option using the Neotech chassis wire will be superior to any of the 3 pre-made cables because you are using OCC copper (Ohno Cont... 
Most detailed budget power cord under 150$ used?
Hi Zuio. My thoughts:Audioquest nrg x3 - I once purchased a used audioquest silver digital coax cable for $150. I wasn’t really impressed. It was okay, but it certainly did not beat my $20 solid-core Beldin 1694A from Blue Jeans Cable. My view on ...

B&W Parts pricing, if you're interested:http://bwgroupsupport.com/parts/price-avail Tweeter is expensive, looking at $1086-1303. 
Where should I put new Furutech GTX-D Rhodium outlet?
I've had a lot of experience with all sorts of A/C power cords, connectors, outlets, fuses.  One thing I have found is that amplifiers are, generally, less sensitive to elements/changes on the A/C line -- when compared to preamp/source equipment. ... 
Pilliod Audio mono amplifiers with Hypex UCD400 HxR
I have had extensive experience with Sparkos op amps. These op amps are absolutely awesome, but it’s important to know that they do require a significant amount of voltage and current to sound good. It’s easy to starve these op amps and they will ...
