| Plinius amp and Conrad-Johnson 16LS Another thought Rayhall, The Plinius SA102 has two power transformers each about 7 1/2" diam. vs the single in the SA-100This might help the bass and high end roll-off you sensed. | |
| What's your profession? Age? I was wondering if you were a Bishop. Funny how I could sense that (of course your name helped) I'm a semi-retired (due to health) Architect specializing in golf clubhouses and very high end residential. I'm 45 last time I checked.J.D. | |
| Plinius amp and Conrad-Johnson 16LS Thank-you Rayhall, excellant reply. I owned the SA-100 MK II for a couple years before going to the Aloia. I used a Kora Eclipse pre-amp. I had some major equipment failure with the plinius wich blew my Dunlavy III cross-overs and drivers along wi... | |
| Plinius amp and Conrad-Johnson 16LS Hi Redkiwi my old friend. It's nice to see a Plinius/New Zealand thread brings you north!I was going to try the EAR footers but was wondering if weight was too much. They tend to deform with very little weight, I'm guessing your saying that's fine... | |
| Plinius amp and Conrad-Johnson 16LS I have spent the past two weeks trying some different set-ups with the Plinius. I've found it to be more sensitive to cables and footers than the Aloia. The Plinius can sound edgy and dry or can be very nutraul with the right footers. The Plinius ... | |
| Richard Kern Modified XA777ES SACD Review - long Great review Lorne!!!, it's nice to have another fan of Kern's. His work is great and affordable. Sony has proven to me that even at the price points they set, the quality can justify upgrades. And finally, another good reason for SACD!J.D. | |
| Plinius amp and Conrad-Johnson 16LS Thank-you Brandon, what are you using now? | |
| how to best a/b cables I've spent alot of time testing cables this past year. I found quick A/B to be less successful than three to five day tests. Play a set of disks over a three day period. Spend time listening to the detail and also spend time simply enjoying the mu... | |

| Problem with my Sony SCD-777ES Good report Drubin, thanks for the follow-up | |
| The BEST system you've ever built !!!! The system I have today is the best I've done to date. I'm kind of a tweaker so my equipment is all affordable (relatively) but has been pushed to it's best performance with modifications and tweaks. Today as my system stands I have the Sony SCD-1... | |
| Spinglass? Spinglass, it's a fire rated insulation product. Maybe a ceramis fiber, it is heat tested to 800 degrees F and used in the furnace/ fireplace industry. | |
| Anyone heard of Minnesota Audio Labs? Jfh, I bought the amp Ben heard. It is a very nice warm smooth amp. Not extremely open but good top end. I still have the amps (mono blocks) because I have no idea how to sell them. Minnesota Audio Labs went out of bussiness about a year after I b... | |
| looking for upgrade suggestions - 12,000 to spend Ehider, has anyone you know of had any success changing the wire in their Dunlavy speakers? I've wondered if conecting my ultra expensive speaker cables to a five way binding post that then uses cheap wire inside the speaker is logical. Wouldn't I... |
