What are your top 3 favorite female singers? Difficult but: Nora Jones Linda Ronstadt Sara Brightman | |
Confession: I only like Norah Jones because so many others told me to +1 for sparksgja Perfect & succinct | |
Advice? Less than $4k, solid state preamp, neutral to gentle I would look for a used Sutherland Engineering N1 Preamp. They don't come on the used market very often. I auditioned this against an Ayre and chose the N1. More versatile than the Ayre but strictly single-ended. Instrument grade quality and ch... | |
New Sugden mono blocks have arrived. Awesome, enjoy! | |
At this level of high(er) end audio why not offer balanced connections? +1 for carlsbad My single-ended preamp easily drives my 25' RCA interconnects to my mono blocks. Of course, they are quality cables & connectors. From what I can gather, if the preamp (single ended) has a low output impedance it would/shoul... | |
So I was changing a lightbulb last night… +3 bad or improper dimmer switch. | |
Need 25 foot interconnects +1 for Kota1 I have a pair of 25' RCA interconnects with Mogami W2549 cable on Neutrik NF2CB RCA's (or a simpler less expensive execution would be to use Rean NYS352G RCA's). Extremely pleased. Good luck | |
Streamed music sounds awful in my system and I don't know why .... Too much bad information. A specialty pc can become part of a hi end playback system. WMP has no place...try JRiver MC or even WinAmp. Unfortunately, no truly fine internal pc DACs exist. The last true audiophile PCI sound card was the M-Aud... | |
What is the Best Sounding Stand Mount Speaker in the world? Wilson Benesch builds very competent stand mounted loudspeakers. I continue to enjoy my Vertex loudspeakers & added the W-B Torus System. Hardly in the super east no object league, but always engaging. | |
How long should speaker cables be? Yes, as many have stated, short runs of loudspeaker cable are often best. To be practical I would say 3 meters or shorter if possible. But the real world often dictates otherwise. I would like to offer that keeping single ended interconnects (S... | |
What's better, one conductor or two conductors for an RCA interconnect? Since you are only concerned with single ended RCA interconnects with coaxial cables, I will share my experience with you. For many years I used a fine 75-ohm Belden #9259 oxygen free single center conductor coaxial cable with a bare copper bra... | |
What cause tweeters hiss ? I should have stated to try a cheater plug on the Denafrips Ares II power cord. Many cheater plugs sold today are polarized and have a green tab on them. You should leave the tab in place. If the cheater plug eliminates the hiss than you are good... | |
The vanishing stereo rack taww, I get your point(s) about where to place the dedicated rack in your remodeled space and the fact that 2-channel systems are not commonplace. Passions and pursuits are not the same for everyone. I can simply wish you luck going forward. | |
What cause tweeters hiss ? Try floating the ground with a cheater plug and see if it dissappear. Generally, the only component that you have to ground is the preamplifier. | |
Best turntable for the buck VPI is a consideration. Try & demo it in your system. |
