| How come there is no thread on the RealityCheck? Steve, Thanks for clarifying my misconception of your project and thanks for sharing your information with us. I look forward to your sharing of the requisite computer specs. My home computer has 512MB of SDRAM (at 400 MHz). I have 3 or 4 unused U... | |
| How come there is no thread on the RealityCheck? Steve,Do you use software that verifies that the content of the CD is transferred accurately, bit for bit, into the RAM? And that the burn from RAM to a CD-R is also accurate, bit for bit? Does the speed of the transfer to RAM and the speed of the... | |
| Aloia, Lars Fredell review Wes Phillips reviewed an Aloia amp in December 2002 issue of Sound Stage. | |
| Suggestions for speaker cables for Wilson Watt/Pup I am very pleased with the Kubala-Sosna Emotion speaker cables between my Jadis JA80 tube monoblocks and the Watt2/Puppy as well as between the Bryston 7B SST and the Wilson WHOW subwoofer. Also, I replaced the Watt/Puppy tail with the K-S Emotion. | |
| Isolation platform under US 500 for CDP Add Symposium's Ultra and Super Plus platforms to your short list. Depending on the size you need, each of the models is either within your budget or close to it. | |
| Isolation Theory Question Vibration control is a complex task that can be addressed, as Barry suggests in his post, by a properly designed system that takes into account the different sources of vibration. I would suggest that you read the informative comments about vibrat... | |
| Anyone have experience with the Nanotec Nespa? Tbg and Leec, Thanks for sharing your info.Does anyone know of a modder who is offering modifications for the Reality Check duplicator or the Cool Copy duplicator or any other standalone duplicator (one that doesn't use a computer). Such modificat... | |
| Anyone have experience with the Nanotec Nespa? Sksos and Leec,Have either of you compared the sonic improvements made by Intron #8500 Protect and the Reality Check's cleaning fluids PRIOR to duplication. Also, what is the sonic comparison between the DUPLICATES that were made using these two c... | |
| Anyone have experience with the Nanotec Nespa? Norm (Tbg), WOW, a score of 5 as compared to 1, 1.5 or 2. That is attention getting.Thanks for the info. Great work! The one thing that is consistent in your experiment as well as Leec's and Sksos' experiments is that Nespaing an RC cd-r is benefi... | |
| Vibraplane Any information on the performance comparison for the Minus K and the Vibraplane will be greatly appreciated. | |
| Anyone have experience with the Nanotec Nespa? Tbg, Have you had a chance to compare the Nespa and RC treatments? The cleaning fluid is another variable here. It would be interesting to compare "copying" with "zapping by light". So, to do an objective comparison, perhaps you can clean the CD a... | |
| Esoteric X-03 vs. Ayre C-5xe I auditioned the Esoteric UX-1 and the Ayre C-5xe for 2 hours each in two different rooms using the same CDs. Of the two, I preferred the Ayre C-5xe; but I liked the APL 3910 much more and bought the APL instead. | |
| Sound Application for power amps I use the RLS on my Jadis JA80 tube monoblocks which drive the main speakers and on the solid state Bryston 7B ST amp which drives the subwoofer. There is no noticeable limitation of current. The RLS is not a transformer based conditioner. | |
| Denon 3910 or Denon DVP 3910 Chuckie, The level of success of "going direct to amp" depends in part on the output stage of the CD player. I've had no problems with the APL 3910's output stage driving my interconnects. I will now either sell my Jadis JP80 preamp or demote it t... | |
| Sound Application for power amps Rhythmace4218, Both Sound Application models, the XE-12 and the Reference Line Stage (RLS), need a 20 amp connection. I compared both models in my primary and secondary systems and found the RLS to be a significant improvement over the XE-12. The ... |
