| Volume level of ARC Ref 5 seems very high Has anyone checked out the in-line attenuators in the link posted by doggiehowser? | |
| Volume level of ARC Ref 5 seems very high all, thanks for your comments.I did speak to ARC about it in the past and indeed they suggested the option of lowering the gain on the CD input but also said doing so could cause sonic loss of focus... I don't have the time or patience to start de... | |
| Focal Alto Utopias Width and Depth of Sound Stage Thanks Jhardy,My Altos are on the short wall, I think I didn't make it clear earlier. Sorry.I will try putting them closer.Sitting further away though is practically impossible in our living room.Will report back with the results.Thanks again,Oren. | |
| Which used speakers in the 5K range? Thanks again for the many interesting comments. I'm looking into them all carefully.One important point I didn't mention was that my poor self lives in Paris (France, not Texas) and a few of the speakers you mentioned are US manufactured with no r... | |
| Focal Alto Utopias Width and Depth of Sound Stage Thanks guys for your comments. I'll try these to see how they work for me.Regards. | |
| Which used speakers in the 5K range? Thanks all for the recommendations so far. Looking forward to more, if anyone has them.Johnnyb53, my third daughter, that is just now turning 3, has poked the tweeters three (yes, three) times and I'm not sure she'd had enough... my fourth, a son,... | |
| Ticking noise in Audio Research Reference CD7 Thanks a lot Hans for your continuous support on this case. It's highly appreciated.I dropped the player this morning at the techinican's for the PS upgrade and the PCB swap on the transport unit.I'm crossing my fingers...Regards. | |
| Ticking noise in Audio Research Reference CD7 Elberoth2, have you seen cd-pro2 units that come built in with the CL16 connector on the PCB?would you know where I could get those?thanks. | |
| Ticking noise in Audio Research Reference CD7 I have to take my words regarding ARC back.Actually, the cd-pro2 isn't a drop in replacement as the CD7 version needs a connector on position CL16 for the clock signal, this connector isn't part of the standard cd-pro2 transport sold by daisy or a... | |
| Ticking noise in Audio Research Reference CD7 Thanks elberoth2.BTW, I spoke to ARC and they claim they "modify the cd-pro2" but I don't really believe them and assume this is said for commercial reasons only. | |
| Ticking noise in Audio Research Reference CD7 elberoth2, I guess replacing the cd-pro2 is a straight forward drop in that doesn't call for any specific ARC SW modifications or such, isn't it? | |
| 6550 replacements for upgraded CD7 Hi, just to align the discussion with my other thread, the use of the 6550 was real life tried by some EU audiophiles and for them it has been working flawlessly.Nevertheless, not wanting to breach any ARC policy, I'll have a word with Calvin on t... | |
| Ticking noise in Audio Research Reference CD7 Bruce, thanks for the Allentown connection idea but I think that sending the unit back and forth to the US would be very cumbersome. Only the thought of sending this big box with my in-laws back to the US makes me sweat, namely after what my mothe... |
