| Any issues with bundling power cables together? I channel my power cords down one side of my rack using Velcro straps. Other side of rack I run my audio cables and tie them with Velcro straps. Keeping power separate keeps everything quiet. Also like was mentioned keeping Ethernet and cable apar... | |
| Good Speakers for Rock and Roll Under 15K I personally never like horns. Had the klipsch klf 20s. Great bass, but the mids and highs always sounded like you had your hands cupped around your mouth when you spoke. Never could improve it, even upgrading the drivers, and replacing the crosso... | |
| Hum in speakers, and suggestions for stopping it Start unplugging components and plug back in one at a time. Coax for cable, hdmi cables, and Ethernet and like mentioned power cords next to speaker cables all can send signal to a power amp to amplify it. It can be irritating until you can identi... | |
| My speaker upgrade journey - and a few questions I’ve heard those active speakers too, and they sound really good, especially with the rels with them. Anyway did John show you the Maggie’s with the belles amp? He also had that50 watt AR tube amp. He ran that for me with the magnepan 20s. Way out... | |
| Integrated for Martin Login Motion 60’s? Power Modules by David Belles is a great sounding amp, with a lot of current to drive 4 ohm speakers so no worries about lack of fullness. He has a model within your range the aria dual mono. Check it out on the website https://powermodules.co... | |
| What was the first power cable that you noticed a difference in the sound? Power cables don’t really make a huge difference with an amp. Components like Streamers, is where p/c upgrade is noticeable. | |
| Looking for a great phono pre-amp in the $1000 or less range Have you considered the Rega Aria mk3? It has both mc and mm options for 1600. When comparing different phono pre amps in the past, somehow I always went back to this one because to me it sounded the most natural, along with a good cartridge of co... | |
| SVS or REVEL Subwoofer I don’t own Rel, but I’ve heard them in a set up running magnepan. The dealer was running 2 t5s and the bass was awesome. Not super low into 20 hz, but unless you plan on playing pipe organ or synthesizer music, I’m finding most times my own sub, ... | |
| System advice I know audio connection in Verona nj has a Belles Aria Signature Demo discounted. They are great sounding amps. Comparing to other amps, well I guess it’s up to individual taste. | |
| new to streaming- help! But also I second ghdprentice, get the laptop outta there, been that route, and you will have much better sound with a separate streamer/dac. | |
| new to streaming- help! Some streamers have built in dacs which either can be connected with Ethernet or Wi-Fi. Also when I bought my Auralic, they recommend even a certain router for streaming, so you won’t lose on the high speed data. | |
| Power conditioners and power regeneration After reading everything, I’m still a little confused. How can you safely daisy chain a ups with a power conditioner? | |
| Power conditioners and power regeneration Well, Jerry I guess among all the interference against us audiophiles, I have a dedicated line with a conditioner. So at least the voltage won’t be killing things. The other avenue I may try if I can find one to handle both my amps, is a ups. The ... | |
| Power conditioners and power regeneration Thx, I compared the aq pq2 which is like a conditioner power strip, with my elite20 power factor, which you know has the reserve tank in there, but if I remember correctly, the elite 20 shuts down with low voltage as well as high voltage, the aq o... | |
| Audio / Stereo Rack I built mine out of threaded rod, super strut, and 1.5 inch butcher block. The racks are solid as a rock. |
