| Best interconnects used for around $500 +? Try the usedcable.com lending library. I did years ago and have settled it was a great help in finding the right cable for my system. | |
| Loreena McKennith, anyone? I have enjoyed her music for years. Don't own many selections, but do stream on Deezer. Are you familiar with Clannad, i find them very similar. | |
| 2 prong power cable PS Audio also makes PC cables with removable ground pins. But if you have a 3 prong outlet you can use any 3 prong cable. | |
| Did Audio Research ever make an LS 17 or LS 17 SE preamp that is all silver I have to add, that I recently bought Rods demo REF5se and he was very accomadating in obtaining black faceplate and making sure everything was as I wanted. Having dealt with Rod over the past decades, he is extremely knowledgable and has a goal ... | |
| Fremer tours Audio Research. WOW! That is a pretty awesome look at the inside. As one that just bought a REF5se, it gives me a boost in confidence (not that it was needed) in my choice. In my experience in dealing with the people from AR, I must say they are fist class in peo... | |
| Power Cord 20 amp for my Krell FPB 600 Amp. Check with the Cardas dealers in your area listed at Cardas.com | |
| Power Cord 20 amp for my Krell FPB 600 Amp. I recently purchsed a Audio Research Ref 5se and needed a cord as well. I found a really good deal on a demo 20amp Cardas Clear and am very pleased with it. I also had found a demo Clear Beyond but felt it more than I needed for a pre-amp. But for... | |
| Mc C47 or Rotel 1590 Blackjack616, my point is that you get what you pay for. Mc doesn't have a higher margin, they cost more because they invest more. Rotel prices the same way, each manufacture has a cost of design and production factored in and they add a profit ma... | |
| For all you McIntosh fans Awesome link, I spent some time watching the other videos as well.thanks for sharing | |
| Drying time after a VPI record cleaner? I find that mine are damp when done, so I have been buying and using the drying cloths that Record Spin uses and sells. That completes the drying and if any moisture is present, I don't see it but I assume the time it takes to get the record que'd... | |
| What makes a good Hi Fi rack improve your system. Vibration feedback and transmission to the chassis. A good rack can reduce these effects and limit it to airborne vibration and feedback. That said, I have wondered why good isolating feet can't get most of this curtailed. And I say most, as I rea... | |
| Mc C47 or Rotel 1590 You are correct, there is a big difference in price and the reason is Rotel has a conscience and won't charge McIntosh prices for their equipment. And McIntosh can't build their level of quality and performance at Rotel prices. Both brands have ve... | |
| Macintosh MX132 I would send it in to McIntosh or Audioclassics.com, you'd be out a shipping cost and a diagnosis fee. But at 700.00 you will be hard pressed to find a better pre-amp, in my opinion. Call McIntosh first as they may diag it for free. I have had man... | |
| Wilson Audio Sophia 2 or Goldenear Triton 1 For what it is worth, I have heard both at a dealers. I would never have thought to compare the two, they are in totally different leagues, or at least in my opinion. The Wilsons are far superior in musicality, they deliver a much deeper defined b... | |
| how do you select a center channel to match when the company only makes monitor speakers? I have had dealers recommend using a single speaker from same speaker line. I think that makes the most sense as well. Obviously it won't be a traditional center channel speaker, but the voice matching would be, and that is what you're after. I ev... |
