| What are "true" balanced connectors Sorry stereo5!I also need to thank you for giving me a clear and direct answer to my original question! | |
| What are "true" balanced connectors Thank you Erik!YOU gave me exactly the specific answer I neededThank you Sleepwalker.You gave me an answer to the broader question regarding what a balanced connection is. That your explanation may not correlate 100% with Erik's is irrelevant to m... | |
| What are "true" balanced connectors Well Bob, I wasn't looking for a "commercial"...All I need to know is what an XLR bridged input meansJim | |
| How do you know what a good speaker is? You absolutely hit the nail on the head Cleeds!Not only will a good speaker faithfully reproduce the "true" sound of an instrument, you will be able to tell what is making the instrument produce sound - air (for brass and woodwind instruments), a ... | |
| Discovering I may have the cleanest AC power in USA I had a similar experience one time when I moved. The little doodads made a significant difference in one home but had zero effect in the next. I believe it is very telling that the new place was a much newer building than the last...I am one of t... | |
| Can you live with your current speaker until you die? I can live with my Gallo Ref II's for the rest of my lifeI have heard many systems whose speakers were as much as 10x more expensive and was not impressed! Including an all Naim system with some electrostatics...Only pair I am VERY curious about i... | |
| This is juvenile... Eyes open? > DIana KrallEyes closed? > Oleta AdamsRELAX! Diana's voice is amazing but her looks add to the allure. Oleta's voice alone is absolutely rapturous! Both are lovely ladies... | |
| Remote controlled TADAC owners Hi there!Thanks for your replyI'm not in a terrible hurry, I can wait. If I decide to keep it...There is nothing I appreciate more in my music than absolute DEAD silence during silent passages. I know a Bel Canto DAC can give me that and have been... | |
| power conditioner GreetingsI can categorically say he** yes clean power will make a difference in your sound systemI learned this several decades ago when I started replacing most of my original cords with Essential Sound Products cords and later their power distri... | |
| wadia 170i to dac magic I'm guessing the dac magic works like a preamp too (sort of like the Benchmark Dac1)?Just ignore the label and connect the amp out to your preamp.Just make sure you start out at low volume so you don't blast your speakers (since -presumably- your ... | |
| Is anyone able to comment on Genesis Genre I ? Hi there.I owned a pair of these for a very brief time but I can honestly say they held their own against my PSB Stratus Golds!I sold these primarily because the cabinets had been damaged in transit and I got a very good deal on a pair of original... | |
| Hey, we don't get no respect Quite the contrary, I think this just shows what a special breed we are!WE know how laughable it is to speak of Bose as Hi-Fi, the "masses" have no idea!Just think how many people out there that don't know sh*%# from shinola about Hi-Fi have no id... | |
| PSB Stratus Being a decidedly "budget" audiophile, I have driven a pair of the original golds with a Carver TFM 35x, then a Sunfire Stereo amp. I drive my current Gold i's with a Sunfire Signature Stereo Amp going through a Krell KSP 7b.The sound is as good a... | |
| Anyone else running XM thru a decent 2 ch system? YES!I too upgraded the cable to a gold-plated variety, which did make an improvement. I agree, aside from the stray sunflares every now and then, the sound is great! However, my measure of a stereo system's worth has always hinged not on what you ... | |
| Do the Audio gods shine upon you? The way I see it, my TV/Cable reception is often much much better late at night; therefore, I can definitely see how our stereo systems may sound better on certain days and/or at certain times. I have to disagree with those who believe it is a mat... |
