| High Fidelity Cable replaces NPS 1260 An update. Got my NPS Q45T 4-14 and applied it to all connections but AC 4-16. WOW, WOW, WOW! The change in SQ is equal to or greater than moving from a $3K cartridge to a $13K cartridge. Now music is unlike anything I have ever heard. The soun... | |
| Installing dedicated 10 gauge lines I have been planning a dedicated AC line for some time and it should be installed within a couple of weeks. At first, I thought of using the man as a consultant who did M.Fremmer’s which was a major fix including a new meter box, new incoming outs... | |
| Contact Enhancer Q45T +10,000 @nasaman WOW, WOW, WOW… Received mine two days ago Thursday. It was ordered mid February. Just applied it to all connections except AC. Rick did tell me that it took 40-60 to really take effect. But WOW! I always discounted the backgro... | |
| How do you arrange the order of your records? I kind of solved my storage problem. (I started stacking horizontally) Found that I could make room in my clothes closet. I also thought that I could make room in the garage for less important LPs. As for organizing, I am stuck in random mode. A... | |
| How do you arrange the order of your records? Not really focused on selecting any particular record, I wonder how you super organized fellows choose what to listen to. Someone mentioned "rotation". Are favorites placed in separate places? Are particular ones kept in mind among the organized?... | |
| “House” Character of Popular $20-$30k Speakers I have always loved SF’s take on what music sounds like. Who knows better than the Italians? And one of the most real sounding speakers I have heard were Rockports. | |
| recommended speaker cables and interconnects Search “Silversmith Fidelium” on the Forum. You will see that Pretty much everyone who bought them say the same things. That they are the best they have used. I replaced very fine $6K speaker cables that are now relatively junk in comparison. For ... | |
| Audiophile Grade Wall Receptacle Glad to see how many speak of Oyaide R1s. I bought 2 for my soon to be dedicated AC line. I also got 2 very thick non ferrous faceplates. The R1s and faceplates were about $600 each. And on the recommendation of Joe at the Lotus Group, 50’ of the ... | |
| Vinyl Repair? This is probably a topic for a new thread… I have run out of vertical LP storage and have many records now horizontally. Have always known that this will warp records. How accurate is this? | |
| Can a great system make a mediocre recording sound good? I have a big investment in my front end. But the most significant improvement came when I added another $10K to my $3K cartridge. (Analog only system-Lyra Atlas SL) Granted, the rest of my system was up to the level of the Lyra. It pulled so much... | |
| High Fidelity Cable replaces NPS 1260 No Q45T yet. But Rick has been communicating by text a lot this week and he was clear that he has made a new, more potent batch of Q45T and mine was now shipped. I am confident that I will receive it within a few days. Will certainly report when i... | |
| Why do folks spend more on electronics than on speakers? $$ are not as significant as sound signature of a speaker. Also, specifically, what a speaker is capable of delivering. For example, a nice pair of ESS Quad 57s at around $6K are a destination speaker for many. Or a pair of excellent $7K monitor... | |
| Thermal Distortion your loudspeaker most likely suffers from it. But do you care? Can anyone confirm my lay understanding that Zobel Networks do, in fact, have a significant, if not great, effect on the SQ when applied correctly to a speaker? AKA, “Deulund-Mundorf Ultra Speaker Purifiers” sold on AG. https://en.wikipedia.or... | |
| Turntable upgrade recommendations: SME vs AMG vs Technics vs other Without direct, personal experience, I am super impressed with the Kronos TT. The counterrotating “platter” under has been said to be the only true innovation in T T design in many years. Seems logical that the precision and stability of rotation... | |
| 2nd systems- who’s got one? I have 4. Main system, office, living room and bathroom. Main is analog only. Office is digital only. Living room Tube CD player with 3 pair of hand me down speakers. And bathroom is a very cool Meridian F80 Ferrari designed Radio/CD. Office is ... |
