| Referrence 3A's a good match with Lavardin? Should be excellent. Get 2 sets of Clear Day solid core speaker cables- silver shotgun. If you can't afford to biwire now, he will make up matching jumpers. Search here for Clear Day | |
| Sound Fusion mods for Bluenote Stibbert cdp As far as I know they are no longer made. I had a set and while they significantly outperformed the stock columns, the biggest improvement was doing away with the columns. Remove the acrylic top and get a set of 4 Machina Dynamica Promethean sprin... | |
| Have $600 Need input on upgrade for Acurus Amp Wyred4Sound stero amp. Call them for availability | |
| is there a consensus on too short speaker cables? An old friend, who is an MIT insider, once told me that Bruce Brissen says speaker cables needs to be at least 8 ft to propigate a solid bass wave. Cables are too short restrict the ability to play with speaker room placement | |
| Tube amp with volume control vs. with a proper pre My Raysonic 168 ($2500) has an awesome tube output with remote volume control. Good enough to retire my PS Audio GCP 200/GCPS ($3K!) | |
| Mapleshade recordings Cats Are Stealing My Shit is fun. Kendra Shank Afterglow and Datevik (her acapella at the end is haunting) are excellent | |
| Does Raysonic CD128 need to be on top shelf? I have the 168 on the top shelf. It sounds a lot more integrated with Herbes Isocup/balls, but that raises the height. I would say you need at least 8" clearance above the top. And that will get old as you will be contorting to get discs in/out | |
| Audio Research V70 or VS55 power amp You would do better to upgrade the 2B | |
| Power Conditioners I have a dedicated 20 amp line to my system and still benefit from balanced power condtioning. There is a BPT FS on Audio Asylum | |
| Help: getting around balanced inputs on pre/pro? XLR/RCA adapters. Come on guys. This is like running a high performance engine on regular gas. It will work, but you won't get near the performance that's there. Truly balanced architecture DEFINES hi-end. Everything is is a pretender. Wake up and... | |
| Best Cables for Usher Be718? Silver is not the problem. It's the grade and gauge that matters. Clear Day speaker cables are warm and detailed on my Magnepan 6 foot ribbon tweeters. Best still, they are less than $200/8ft pair | |
| how do you deal with heavy power cords? This is also a problem should you use iso/vibration devices as the torque from heavy cords negates their benefit.I finally switched to Morrow Audio MAP-2 power cords (light weight and flexible) and am very happy | |
| Speaker cable upgrade from Analysis Plus Oval 12 Having used many exotic hi-end cables, I can highly recommend Clear Day Cables. His silver shotguns ae fanastic and less thatn $200! | |
| best inexpensive tube integrated At that price point most likely you will need to go used. There are some very nice Asian products. Tube rolling is critical. Contact www.tubeman.com He may also have a nice amp for you in that price range. | |
| Power amp for Reference 3A speakers? First find foam/felt surrounds for the tweeters as they tend to splash. Next bi-wire. Clear Day Solid Core Speaker Cable- silver shotgun. Finally get rigid stands and Herbies BFDs to couple Check out Wyred4Sound smallest stereo amp, or a PS Audio ... |
