| Unforgiving DAC or add Tube Preamp?? Audio Note Kits. DAC 3.1. I am surprised AN has not been mentioned. Its crazy how good it sounds. I speak from experience as I have one and have gone through several 2500.00 Dig DAC's. I had it paired to a Bryston pre until I got the AN 3M line pr... | |
| Why Power Cables Affect Sound What happens when you plug an expensuve power chord into a cheap power bar that is plugged into a $1.00 wall socket? Or is it automatically assumed that a power conditioner is part of the equation. If not where should the quality power pieces begin? | |
| Does impedance of a speaker change when one bi-amps? I have bi amped several systems and never heard a difference that would justify the additional amp. Bi wire, same thing. I did hear a difference with an active 3 way system with an external crossover though. It was a Linn isobarik Brik system. I a... | |
| What is the most dramatic way of increasing a speaker's Bass and Low mid? What about a DBX 120 or similar? It is made for this type of application. Pro sound guys deal with this issue daily because their job is tunning to different acoustical environments. Maybe post on a pro site and get some suggestions. | |
| Audionote DAC 2.1 Kit USB I use a "prodigy cube, converter from ebay for 100.00 works great. My tech uses the same one and he has been an AN guy for 20 years. I use my laptop to a 2.1 dac. | |

| My first Tube Amplifier My first and only is The Fisher sa16. El34 and 12ax7. Apparently it is liked by many. I havent heard anything to compare it to. It sounds nice thoughI mate it with my Audionote M3 Line and a 2.1 DAC. Sound good but I am considering upgrading the amp. | |
| JBL - almost nothing for sale, why? I had a pair of L100's they were just plain cool. I beleive why they are liked so much is because of the impact the bass provides It will make the hairs on your arms stand up. Very hard to find that in any other speaker. They were designed that ... | |

| Tannoy gold 12" cabinets Thanks for the reply. It seems through research that these drivers should be put in quite a large cabinet. I was hoping to get in around 30" tall. Of what I have seen all are 40" plus. Maybe I have made a mistake buying these. | |
| Looking for speaker recommendations Is there a discernible difference between a $1K DAC/preamp and a $3-4K DAC/preamp?Yes. 3 to 4k you are in the quality used range. Audionote 3.1 is unbelievable it is a tube dac. It changed my audio direction all together. I went out and purchased ... | |
