| Cable brands that work well with Cardas? I think the speaker run stands on it's own merits. No need to match a single brand or interconnects, IMHO. | |
| Two vs four subwoofers for music playback A very tall woofer tower, I guess, could give some of that effect. Notice how I said woofer tower not subwoofer tower. The main benefit is they crossover higher and recreate the recorded room ambiance. That is lost by distributed arrays. Towers... | |
| Two vs four subwoofers for music playback I think woofer towers are the best way to handle low frequencies. There are many statement systems that use that configuration. I think the multiple drivers are as effective as multiple subs but with better imaging. | |
| SACD iso and DSD noise when stopping or closing music player I have no idea about your path because you are talking a language I don’t understand. It looks like you are feeding your amp directly from your DAC. The amp goes on last and off first. And whatever is feeding your amp should be set at zero volume ... | |
| Tube or Amp Problem? Please help. Unfortunately, i don't have unlimited funds. Not many do but tube amps take more financial commitment than solid state gear. If you want to play you have to pay. | |
| I don't want to beat a dead horse but I'm bugged. about these very new research if no one give a dam for sure... What surprises me is that someone has a dam to give. Is it a big dam or a little dam? If it's big, damn. | |
| Balanced v high-pass The speakers in this setup alternate between KEF KS50s or Magnepan LRSs. Those loudspeakers have no low frequency output. Run them full range and just drive the subs from the RCAs. | |
| Tube or Amp Problem? Please help. Given that I can set the bias for each tube individually is it still important that I replace both on the side that this occurs Although the bias is independent the circuit is designed to have a pair of matched tubes. | |
| Amp Recommendations for Marantz 7c A pair of Quicksilver mid-monos would look great. The amps sound great and would be a nice pairing. No need for older gear with these, instant antique with world class sound. | |
| Tube or Amp Problem? Please help. Ref: Upscale has Gold Lions for $92.95 each and Electro Harmonix for $45.95 each, no charge for matched quads. | |
| Tube or Amp Problem? Please help. will it sound bad if I replace the 2 on the side w/ the bad tube with something else? Probably not but it might sound different on each side. I saw on the web that those tubes might not be very robust and you have around 1000 hours on them. Yo... | |
| Tube or Amp Problem? Please help. Next time when you see fireworks (or the sound changes), shut the amp off immediately. That tube is blown. If you have a lot of hours on that set of tubes, it’s an indication that the other tubes may not be that far behind. If that is the case, it... | |
| Too Much Power @stevewharton Wow. I had not seen that before. That is quite a claim. Not sure I'd want to test that claim. Thanx for the reply. | |
| Ok ..I have Maggie 1.7is on Magnarisers but one keeps blowing the "tweeter" If you are using banana plugs, make sure they are not pushed in too far. | |
| 10k Towers with biggest soundstage? Triangle Alphas. |
