| Songs that make your system sound AWSOME! That entire Annie Lennox album. Medusa is very good production wise. Sole fantastically produced pieces of music have been shared here. I am going to check many of them out. Thanks alot | |
| Best CD player under $2000 The Sony 608esd is a very good choice. I had someone that really wanted to buy mine once before I had even heard it. So I plugged it in and compared it to a $2500 streamer / player hooked to a $5000.00 dac. First I ripped the cd to a flac file to... | |
| System not playing higher resolution flac files I used foobar20000 on my laptop to a prodigy converter to the DAC. The DAC does not have a usb input only the rca coaxial.So what I am hearing is there is nothing I can do about. The DAC won't play them. Period.Is that right? | |
| Short speaker wire and long inter connects or reverse I don't have a dedicated circuit that I know of. But I will see if can make it work. I have an electrician in the family so it shouldn't be that big a deal. From what I am reading it sounds like the power is as important as the rca/speaker cables.... | |
| Short speaker wire and long inter connects or reverse 15’ if I use short speaker wire. My monoblocks are quite large. It would be nice to get them next to or at least in the middle of the speakers. The goal is get my Cabinet out from the middle of the speakers. | |

| Thoughts on SS bass. Tube mid and high tube pre Good point on the sub. The heils are a recent addition so I have listened extensively without them. I just run the Heils off the high / mid side of speaker binding posts with a 3.9 film cap in line. | |
| Snell E type ll crossover rebuild thoughts Good to know. Thanks. Nice find to. I picked up mine last year for $500cdn. Delivered. I was happy when they arrived in mint condition. I hooked them up and went Wow! They sent the An K spe's to the second line. Not by much though. That rear twee... | |
| Snell E type ll crossover rebuild thoughts Thanks Erik. This is beyond my current skill level. It not beyond my learning capabilities though. I think the speakers deserve the effort that Snell/Voecks put in to the design. I have had them in storage for 5 months now awaiting their 1st hook ... | |
| Snell E type ll crossover rebuild thoughts Great advice. Thankyou. The reasons you mention are exactly why I posted the thread. | |
| Thoughts on SS bass. Tube mid and high tube pre The Bryston is a pro model so it has a gain control. I use the Heils because I like what they add. It maybe a slight hearing loss thing for me. I am not unhappy with what I have just thought I would experiment a little that’s all. I didn’t mention... | |
| How many people here generally buy used? I buy used. Buying 40 year old equipment is hard to find new in a box. I buy low enough $ wise to justify having it restored, recapped ect. Speakers I generally restore myself, in and out. I like bringing old gear back to its original glory then p... | |
