| Review: Neuance Alpha & Beta shelf / Apollo Aria 455 rack Stand Hi Greg,The EAR feet would not be a great match for 50 lbs, so your thoughts are going in the right direction. Simply experiment to find a solution that works. I never found a footer that worked better than the stock "very well designed" Sony foot... | |
| Class A amplifier choice, need suggestions The Plinius SA-102, 125 watts pure class A. Read my review and you will look no further. | |
| Power Conditioners: Myth, Magic, or Necessary Cdchas the right test. I am able to turn the volume up 100% and hear nothing 3" from the speakers. Just for fun I tried plugging everything into a standard outlet with stock cords and at 50% volume I could hear a whooshing noise from my listening ... | |
| Interconnect help for a NEUTRAL system Purist Audio, Pure Note, Audience, FIM would be cables I would recommend. | |
| Electrical outlet upgrade worth it? Thank-you Lak, I had not read your Hubble Cryoed vs. Wattgate. I have now, and well written too. | |
| Electrical outlet upgrade worth it? Judit, I have not tried anything cryogenically treated. I would love to hear some others who have tried both to see what they found. I most would like to hear about the treble. | |
| Electrical outlet upgrade worth it? Maxgain, The Hubble 8300, aprox. $20.00, the PS Audio power port $ 45.00 and the Wattgate $120.00. (These were the best prices I found new) My impressions were the Hubble and the Wattgate have very similar tonal qualities. Both have speed and bass... | |
| Electrical outlet upgrade worth it? Natalie, I must personally thank you for another highly informed and deeply insightfull post. Without your wisedom this site would be a loss.Matty, I have a Hubble and a PS Power Port I'm not using after soothing my ego as Natalie puts it by upgra... | |
| Regarding a review in the Aug '02 Stereophile... PietI think a review can only be considered a piece of information, something much deeper than simple specs, but it's hard to find any real answers in them. As an example I'm trying a pair of Air-Tight ATM-3 mono blocks right now for a review late... | |
| The return of "Bubble Man" Hi Ozfly, I though I'd answer here rather than with my email to you:I would certainly promote trying as many shelf materials as people can think of and sharing there experiences. The "Bubble Wrap" isolates the material from the rack and allows the... | |
| The return of "Bubble Man" Rcprince, the first thread was one I started "Free Tweak That Works". It was followed by a thread started by Esoxhntr "Bubble Wrap Revisited" | |
| Why "splay" walls 4 custom listening room design? As an Architect of high end residential, I've had quite a few opportunities to design/ build and research the room issues. Two years ago my client spent quite a bit of money ($15,000) having an acoustics expert calculate his $200,000 home theater ... | |
| Regarding a review in the Aug '02 Stereophile... Here is another take on the same subject. When reading a review, again we must understand what the "system" of the reviewers consists of and how it relates to us. Let's take for example that a reviewer had my exact system. Sony SCD-1 (with mods) P... | |
| Regarding a review in the Aug '02 Stereophile... The basic philosophy might indeed work as a starting point. When we' speak of "system dependant" and "system matching" I believe these thoughts do indeed work for most cases. It's important to first understand the characteristics of the component... | |
| Regarding a review in the Aug '02 Stereophile... I have over the years learned how to better decipher the pertinent information from the reviewers. As for my impressions of the AU 24 cables based solely on the Stereophile review, they sound like an excellent "low cost" cable and a great place to... |
