| JL Audio F110 Loud pop when pc unplugged ? Is there an on/off switch? If so, try turning the sub "off" first and waiting at least a minute before pulling the power cord. | |
| AQ Jitterbug for USB It's possible that it hasn't been distributed to retailers yet. | |
| Ayre phono settings question Thank you, Almarg. | |
| Question for Audio Alchemy VITB phono preamp users Great. Thanks! | |
| Question for Audio Alchemy VITB phono preamp users Thanks Mofi. I am using a Shelter 501 II, output 0.4 mV I believe. The VITB is somewhat temporary and until I try it out not even sure it will be tolerable. | |
| Dynaudio C1 II owners - how loud can you go? Mapman gives good advice. I doubt that the problem lies with your speakers. If possible, you should see if a local audio dealer would be willing to loan you a high powered integrated to take home for a day to see if the problem is the Peachtree. | |
| Refined SS Stereo pwr amps under 10K? I replaced my DS225 with the Ayre VX-5 and have been very satisfied. You may lose some of that perceived hyper transparency but you gain musicality with the Ayre. | |

You mention the importance of auditioning as many cables as possible. In your experience and in the context of your system,... | |
| Rega DAC vs. EE Minimax vs. Centrance vs. W4S 2 Doug, I read your excellent review of the plus. Having recently heard the newest version of the Linn Akurate streamer and being hugely impressed, any chance you could comment on this comparison? I realize there is a big difference in price so a co... | |
| Scotch? No thanks. Whats the best Vodka.? make is vodka flavored vodka. | |
| Gabriel Gold IC's are they really this good? John, thanks for the kind words about my system. My speakers are ProAc 3.8s, not Dynaudios, however. I know what you are saying when you refer to chasing the digital dream. When I listen to analog for a time, it is very difficult to "adapt" back t... | |
| Gabriel Gold IC's are they really this good? Here's my take on the Gabriel Gold interconnects as they performed in the context of my system. I listened mostly to female vocals but also just about every other genre to get a feel for these cables. I'd be happy to provide specifics but omitted ... |
