A Great US Company If you want the best possible service from an American company, I vote for Burger King. Not a single flaw. First class operation. I won't do business anywhere else. | |
Can My Subwoofers Damage My Home Can a subwoofer wreck a house? It sounds like fantastic claim made by an ultra expensive cable company. I think its far more likely the people that live on the once quiet street got some revenge. | |
difference in design between digital/analog cables As far as I know, you would use the same digital cable going from a PC to the reclock as you would from the clock to the dac. So, if I'm reading your question right, you would need to get 2 digital cables. Most people would probably get 2 that are... | |
$18k Tube preamp for large scale symphonies please Lloydelee21 brings up a very good point. You tried some of the best preamps on the market. Its possible that you have a weak spot somewhere else in your system. That said, I would recommend you listen to preamps from BAT and Ayre. (I know Ayre onl... | |
Vandersteen 2ce questions I know your speakers fairly well. I know this is a fairly basic recommendation but I would check that you have all of your cables connected properly. If you make a mistake hooking them up, your lack of bass can definitely be a result. Assuming you... | |
issues with ground loop from DAC? I don't think your problem is because the Rogue is a tube amp (Unless, as Tsugury suggests, you actually have a bad tube). One thing you may want to try, even if it is only temporary, is one of those "cheater" plugs that bypasses the ground pin to... | |
Requesting Thoughts and Ideas I agree with Martykl in that you are better off doing your set up manually. It may be a little more work, but the results and experience you gain will be well worth the effort. You won't be at the mercy of using "What ever they give you in the box... | |
AudioQuest Best comstumer service I've had so far. If you don't mind me asking, why did the cables need to be re-terminated? I had an issue where the rca connectors on my interconnects didn't fit tight enough. | |
Behringer EP4000 vs Bryston 4B ST & 4B PRO When I typed up my 2nd response yesterday, the only responses I saw were the 1st 2; mine and yours with the specs. After reading some of the other responses, as well, I would like to add a few things.The first is that you are witnessing a truly ra... | |
Behringer EP4000 vs Bryston 4B ST & 4B PRO When looking at an amp like this, you really can't go by the specs. The reason for this is that there are no standards for measurement. Every company has their own way to measure their amps. Example: Lets say that company A wants to make a 100 wat... | |
Requesting Thoughts and Ideas "Yes I can do what you suggest but would like to add room correction with XT32 to dial in my dual subs."If that's the case, you may want to consider another way to go about this. I have a digital EQ that I use sometimes to make bad recordings list... | |
Requesting Thoughts and Ideas I'm not an expert with theater but can't you do HDMI outside of the processor somehow? Taking sound quality into consideration, moving from your Classe to one of the other choices you list will, most likely be a downgrade. | |
Behringer EP4000 vs Bryston 4B ST & 4B PRO You should notice a huge difference by going with the Bryston. Not only is it much more powerful than the Behringer, the overall sound quality will be much better, as well. The Bryston is designed to be used in high end audio systems; The Behringe... | |
This probably a really silly question... I don't know what kind of amp you are looking at, but any decent solid state amp should work OK. I wouldn't fool with the speakers themselves, but if you need to make them an easier load for your amp, an external Autoformer may be just what you ar... | |
ARC Ref150 or Aesthetix Atlas with Vandersteen 5A I agree with Keithr about Audio Connection. I've done business with them. John's probably the best Vandersteen person out there; besides Vandersteen himself. Also, with regards to your amp, have you ever listened to an Ayre/Vandersteen system? I k... |
