| Using battery power to go off the City's power grid If anyone is still using their battery setups, please continue to share how the experience is after some time has passed. Any hiccups or issues to note, or are things solid? I recently purchased a Goal Zero 1500 and was impressed with what it did... | |
| Sell your $$$ cables and conditioners... affordable LITHIUM is here! Four hours listening tonight with the Yeti 1500, part of it while plugged into the wall and part of it totally free and disconnected. I’ll need to listen more to get a firmer handle on everything but the early report is that this is doing good thi... | |
| Sell your $$$ cables and conditioners... affordable LITHIUM is here! This thread has been the best piece of information I've found regarding user experiences and portable power supplies in a stereo setup. I'm going to try a Yeti 1500 for my front end, which is a Luxman EQ-500 phone pre (47W), Pass Labs XP-22 line... | |
| recommendation of amps I had a Benchmark AHB2 for almost 3 years and really enjoyed the clean sound and wide stage. I decided to make a big jump about 2 years ago to the Pass 250.8 and instantly heard why people enjoy Pass. The soundstage was deeper, taller, and most im... | |
| Under my tower speakers -- Isoacoustics Gaia, other options? In my old place I had a sub on carpet which was on top of concrete, it was a basement listening space. For years, I had the sub on a guitar amp stand, I think it was called an Auralex Gramma. That helped tighten the bass up from having the sub off... | |
| Thiel Owners Hello everyone! I currently own a pair of CS2’s and am enjoying their sound quite a bit but was curious what I could expect from a larger, say 3.6 or 3.7 model? I know people say to make sure and have a powerful enough amp, I currently have a Pas... | |
| Townshend Pods - How many do I actually need per component for max effectiveness? @willgolf, what components will your order be for? @slaw, I’d be curious to hear your thoughts on your order, thanks. | |
| Townshend Pods - How many do I actually need per component for max effectiveness? Update after close to 2 months: Along with the pods/platform for my tt and components, I also got a set of speaker bars for my 155lbs sub, that’s what John recommended for that size/weight. Previous to the bars, I had my sub on a guitar amp platf... | |
| Townshend Pods - How many do I actually need per component for max effectiveness? Nice looking pics, this should be a nice test for the Townshends. Please report back on your experience. | |
| Townshend Pods - How many do I actually need per component for max effectiveness? Very cool, have you tried other isolation products before or is this your first? | |
| Townshend Pods - How many do I actually need per component for max effectiveness? @slaw, what did you order? | |
| Townshend Pods - How many do I actually need per component for max effectiveness? The pods arrived recently and I have them under my amp, phono preamp, linestage, and DAC. Not much to say that’s different from my thoughts above with the TT platform. These things are amazing and well worth an audition if you’ve ever been curious... | |
| Townshend Pods - How many do I actually need per component for max effectiveness? Well, I haven’t received the pods yet (hopefully next week) but I did get a Townshend platform that I put my turntable on, previous footers were Isoacoustics Orea. Vocals are bass are clearer, those two things stuck out immediately after playing... | |
| Townshend Pods - How many do I actually need per component for max effectiveness? After some correspondence with John at Townshend Audio, I placed a Pod order for my components in the op. I’ll post my thoughts once I’ve listened with them for a little bit. It ended up being 3 x AA for the DAC, 4 x A for the linestage, 4 x B... | |
