| BAT vk-3ix and Parasound Halo A21 match? Milpai,I took a quick look at the specs on the A21 and found this: Input impedance: 33 k Ω unbalanced; 66 k Ω balanced. Even though your CD player is single ended, you can sometimes get away with running a SE component into a balanced component; w... | |
| BAT vk-3ix and Parasound Halo A21 match? Milpai,Is your passive unit balanced? Also, what do you have going into it for a source? I don't mean to pry but I'm a big fan of passive preamps. Not that many people see the value in using them so its always good to get opinions from other users... | |
| Another survey - Best bargain you ever got Best bargain I ever got was a pair of Vandersteen Model 2 Sig 2's for $2000 plus tax. Thought I stole something. | |
| should I notice the upsampling? As far as the cat goes, you have 3 options to fix the problem; the right way, the wrong way and the audiophile way.The right way: Build a listening room.The wrong way: De-claw the cat.The audiophile way: Buy a bunch of expensive cables. | |
| Transparent High Performance Power Link I find that power cords are not like interconnects and speaker cables, at all, when it comes to system matching. With power cords, you have no idea what you are going to get until you try it. Results are not at all consistent. Cable Company (www.f... | |
| BAT vk-3ix and Parasound Halo A21 match? I didn't mean to sound harsh or anything, but if you read your origional post, it does seem like you are a bit unsure as to your decision. That's why I thought you were guessing. Also, BAT and Parasound are very different sounding products, in gen... | |

| How to Clean Creek 5350 SE Integrated Amp Another post that didn't show up. A few hours ago I posted a response but don't see it. Anyway, I had the same issue. A Qtip and some alcohol should take care of everything. Whatever you do, don't get rid of it. I sold mine and it was a big mistak... | |
| vandersteen Model 1s Any Good Reviews I posted a comment a few hours ago but I don't see it. I've owned the 1's and you can't go wrong with them. Your amp is great too. If my original post doesnt show up by tomorrow, I will redo it. | |
| BAT vk-3ix and Parasound Halo A21 match? This is the problem you have when you take a chance and just guess on a new component. Preamps are way too important to not get right. Given that, you probably will get lucky. BAT is very well made and should work with a large variety of products.... | |
| How to Clean Creek 5350 SE Integrated Amp I had the same problem. Just a simple cleaning with Q tips and alcohol should be more than enough. | |
| vandersteen Model 1s Any Good Reviews I give them a good review. They should sound excellent with the equipment that you list. I put the 1's up against a bunch of speakers priced $2000 or less and liked them better than everything else I tried. (Except the model 2's). Also, your amp i... |
