| Please tutor me on some integrated amp basics. Inna, if the Poseidons are just a little over $1000 maybe that's what I'll do. You haven't steered me wrong yet far as I know. I'll try and track Albert Porter down. Glupson. I'll get this done. My mom used to call me a "grinder" as a kid. I just... | |
| Please tutor me on some integrated amp basics. Inna , I found the Purist Audeo Design Museaus Luminas for sale new at the Cable Company for $1095 for ten feet. That’s some progress. I found a sterling review of them too. Mike | |
| Please tutor me on some integrated amp basics. To clarify my last post I’ll be needing roughly ten feet of speaker cable (about three meters) or maybe a little less depending on where the Magico A3’s sound best in the listening room. Inna, I read a good review of the Museus but they were askin... | |
| Please tutor me on some integrated amp basics. Here’s another question for anybody whose been reading ,or new to this thread. If you had a budget of $1000 for speaker cables, what would you consider buying new around that price point? Also what would you consider getting used, if it is not too... | |
| Please tutor me on some integrated amp basics. Thomas, thanks for the info on The Cable Company's loaner policy.Jafant, will doAny thoughts on whether those home brewed Audioquest Rocket 88's from Audio Advisor might be the same quality as the regular priced ones that come from Audioquest with... | |
| Please tutor me on some integrated amp basics. Audio Advisor makes up their own Audioquest Rocket 88 cables, one of those Magico recommended, by putting their own terminations on lengths of Rocket 88 cable off a spool. They then sell them at 51% off list. Does that sound legit to anybody, or n... | |
| Please tutor me on some integrated amp basics. Glupson, .Thanks for the Luxman cable link. I’ll be sticking with zip cord at that price point. Maybe they’ll show up used at a reasonable cost. Inna, I do recall that someone (you) had mentioned the Luxman’s, Another general question for you all:... | |
| Best building material for vibration free shelving Slaw, I'm going to build the shelving like described earlier in the thread and use under the marble for the turntable shelf, some constrained layer damping. Sorry for the late response, but this thread did get away from me. Still not sure what to ... | |
| Please tutor me on some integrated amp basics. Jafant, I'll see if I can find the article you read on the Luxman cables. Do you have a link to it? You would think they'd be designed to be a good match with their own amps. I'll put them on my short list if they're not cost prohibitive. Thanks ... | |
| Please tutor me on some integrated amp basics. Ieales, thanks for the definitions, I couldn't come up with the LCC on Google on my own.I'll try to do auditions when I'm not overly tired or aggravated. although those two conditions are usually present only when I'm sound asleep. You've certain... | |
| Please tutor me on some integrated amp basics. Ieales, I’ll try and find some time today to read and study the Galen articles you provided links too. I’ve been busy on another non-audio project that’s taken up enough time to not be able to get that done. What do OFC and LCC stand for? I did re... | |
| Please tutor me on some integrated amp basics. I'll do just that. | |
| Please tutor me on some integrated amp basics. Inna, I’l have to measure the cable length more carefully once I get my built in shelves in for the turntable, CD player and amp done. I’m moving the shelves to the middle of the room to keep these cables to the shortest length possible. I was thi... | |
| Please tutor me on some integrated amp basics. Jones4music, that was good, and illustrates just why audiophiles shouldn’t be allowed out of the house, much less fishing. I added Nordost Odin’s to my want list though. Glupson, you’re telling me. Since I joined this site I been told of so many t... | |
| Please tutor me on some integrated amp basics. Gentleman, nice to read the back and forth on cables since my last post from three of my favorite people on this site. I’ve been in touch with both Magico and Luxman about cables. Magico says they’re using Audioquest cables at their current show i... |
