| Regarding a review in the Aug '02 Stereophile... The basic philosophy might indeed work as a starting point. When we' speak of "system dependant" and "system matching" I believe these thoughts do indeed work for most cases. It's important to first understand the characteristics of the component... | |
| Regarding a review in the Aug '02 Stereophile... I have over the years learned how to better decipher the pertinent information from the reviewers. As for my impressions of the AU 24 cables based solely on the Stereophile review, they sound like an excellent "low cost" cable and a great place to... | |
| Audiogoners Anonymous? Yes all tounge in cheek? Funny thing is I'm my own Boss, or Bose if you wish, or Boze! | |
| Audiogoners Anonymous? I have no problem, I can quit anytime I want to. If my wife was nicer or my bose was easier on me I'd never even come here. There is nothing compulsive about my Audiogon relationship or how it effects my life.Take it from me, 23 years in the progr... | |
| Krell amps and magnaplaner. Doe's it work? Ouch, that sounds mighty bright! | |
| Review: Shunyata Research Hydra AC filter I just heard the Elrod last week when a friend brought one by to test. It's very promising, doing a number of things in the high frequencies better than my NBS Statements. The cord had only about 35 hours on it so my final judgement will have to w... | |
| Wire vs. Vibration vs. Power Cond. is best? Well I started with power cords, dedicated curcuits and power cords followed by vibration control. This may seem backwards to some but it was a budget issue. I can make more improvements for less money starting where I did. | |
| Which cone's or platforms have helped? The original concept of Neuance shelves was to stop all the tinkering. Ken wanted to produce a product that would work well alone with simple rubber footers. If you simply upgrade all your MDF to Neuance, or at least the front end equipment, the r... | |
| Barber in concert ... well worth the outing I've not seen her lastest tour but she comes to Minneapolis quite often and I have enjoyed her many times. I'll watch for her latest, she is a wonderful person to see in person. You really get a great sense of her deep talants. | |
| Review: Shunyata Research Hydra AC filter Hi Norm, before I installed my second dedicated circuit I did have the two Plinius amps, the Placette pre-amp and the Sony SCD-1 running through the Hydra. The result of removing the Plinius from the Hydra was very slight and mostly focused in the... | |
| Which cone's or platforms have helped? Orchard Bay are made in Orchard Bay Washington and avalible only through A Sanctuary of Sound. Check this site under "Showcase Dealers". These cones come in a variety of sizes and material and are used as standard equipment on Talon speakers. | |
| Which cone's or platforms have helped? Jazzdude, isn't it saying that titanium is a better conductor of vibration in that the sub was noiser, thus allowing vibration to resonate better? I would think a quiter sub would be absorbing or otherwise not conduction vibration, thus less noise. | |
| Which cone's or platforms have helped? Hey Bob, please let me know how the Nordost work out. J.D. | |
| Help Interconnect Cable Goone, I'm going to write you a personal e-mail regarding this, but I also wanted to share my thought.I'm not sure you need to buy a new interconnect at all. Last night I began thinking of times I've experienced similiar issues and how I solved th... | |
| Help Interconnect Cable Goone, if the AZ is too bright then I like the Cardas Neutral Reference recommended by Ntu75. I.m assuming your triing to keep the costs in the Cardas price range. If you want to go up to something used in the $1000 range the FIM gold, NBS Stateme... |
