| A little Patience sometimes pays off! (Kef LS50 content) Some speakers take a long time to settle in as while as room placement. Some sellers list speakers for sale before really hearing their full potential. Also, pairing equipment can make a world of difference. I can't presume to tell you what spk. c... | |
| The awakening... Just for fun bought a Zero-Zone tube pre-amp ($40), swaped out the tubes and bought a regulated power supply. Paired w/a Parasound Zamp. Fantastic!. The magic is there but you could most certainly hear it's limitations. Very pleasurable to listen ... | |
| can anyone help me........ Your player from what I've seen online uses 2 TDA 1305T's and CDM-9 transport. Rotel RCD- 970BX uses same transport but w/1 TDA 1305T. I'd do some looking to see what other players uses this combination. Maybe you could savage a CDM-9 from other u... | |
| B&W DM 640 Tower Speakers- Decent? If you can get a pr. for $250, don't hesitate and buy them. They retailed for around $1500 I believe in their day. I owned this spk. and I liked them very much. (Driven by NAD seperates and Vintage Kenwood KA-7100.) I wish I never sold them. They ... | |
| Do speaker cables need a burn in period? Absolutely! My QED Signature Spk. wire sounded pretty good from the start but it wasn't till about 150+ hrs. when "it" happened. Glorious sounding cable especially for it's very modest price. | |
| New TV: what to do with TOSLINK optical output I've been using OREI Da34 Digital to Analog converter. Works just fine. Paid around $50. Problem solved. Bill. | |
| Looking for a reasonably priced good quality interconnect You could make a very nice set w/Neotech wire or you could order some Furutech ADL Alpha Line-1 for $81 1m pr. Wonderful sounding cables. | |
| Best preamp (used or new) under $350??? I'm using the Schiit SYS and I'm most pleased w/it. Before purchasing the SYS, I considered the Tisbury and the Zpre2. If you can find a Rotel RC-972 pre-amp I strongly suggest you purchase. I've owned a few Rotel pre-amps and IMO, the RC-972 is f... | |
| Request advice-need "brighter" speakers than Totem Hawks Hi Bruce. I've found w/speaker burn-in that the mids and lows develop more fullness/bloom. Haven't really noticed treble becoming more pronounced but certainly more refined and smoother. (You have to be patient and also not move cables around as t... | |
| Update power cord This is what I would do first before adding a Chassis IEC socket to your amp (unless you're able to do yourself). Go buy a Furutech FI-15ME AC plug. Install on your fixed cord and I think you will find the results very satisfactory. I've done this... | |
| Recos for entry level Bookshelf speaker $400-750 for 21yo nieces first system? Own the PSB Image B4's and they are very impressive sounding small speakers. Fit and finish first class. Used under $200 pr. if you can find a pr. for sale. Rear ported. Check out the Imagine Mini as well. | |
| speaker and interconnects, how nice do I need Before trying anything else....order some Canare 4s8 speaker wire and make your own cable. Super inexpensive and I was impressed by how good my little Dynaudio Dm 2/6 sound w/this wire. As far as interconnents, make your own. I made some using Mog... | |
| Douk Audio. Any experience with any of their products? Well... Today I took out the Chinese 12AU7 tubes which came w/the unit and put in the 1958 RCA tubes that I bought recently just for this pre-amp/buffer. Night and day difference for the better. What a great way to experience such musical sound fo... | |
| Douk Audio. Any experience with any of their products? Dun Mei Av-21. Sorry... | |
| Douk Audio. Any experience with any of their products? Last night set up my Dug Mei AV-21 I bought from Doukaudio. (Using as pre-amp on top of my Adcam 5002 amp driving Dynaudio DM2/6 spks.) In a word...superb sound. I bought on Ebay an inexpensive input swicher box (JVC) which I will use between my C... |
