| Wireworld platinum starlight 7 hdmi vs. silver starlight 7 hdmi @snopro - you could contact thecableco.com and see about trying the Platinum HDMI from their lending library. It would cost you 5% fee if you decide to return it, but it's better than having to buy the cable just to try it out. Though, it looks ... | |
| What to add or change for my system? For speaker wire, if you want to wet your feet very cheaply, I always suggest getting some basic 12awg stranded OFC copper speaker wire from Monoprice (or any other source). At $15 for 50 feet, it’s such a cheap way to see how copper works in your... | |
| Wireworld platinum starlight 7 hdmi vs. silver starlight 7 hdmi Sorry, I haven't heard the PS Audio stuff. I'm primary a HT guy and only listen to 2-channel while I'm working on my computer, so I don't have any ambition to dump $8k+ into a DAC and player (which I'm sure are excellent). For computer audio, I ... | |
| Wireworld platinum starlight 7 hdmi vs. silver starlight 7 hdmi Funny that you just posted. I was reading another thread and came across some comments on Wire World HDMI. If the comments are accurate, it appears that the Wire World DNA Helix design is so good, that their normal Starlight 7 cable (silver-plat... | |
| Classe SSP-800 - Time to move on? Looking at the Aurender:https://cdn3.volusion.com/zfaej.gfcbd/v/vspfiles/photos/04DD-AURXA10-7.jpg?1470856254 4 completely independent power supplies, each with its own transformer. One for digital transport, one for each of the analog output stag... | |
| Wireworld platinum starlight 7 hdmi vs. silver starlight 7 hdmi That sounds to me like the dealer trying to upsell additional products. HDMI is a digital cable and its behavior has nothing to do with the behavior/type of any analog related cables (such as interconnect and power cable). I have evolved as someon... | |
| Source Mod or Preamp? I’m don’t have experience with tubes, but if it’s one thing I have learned through a lot of R&D is that if the sound signature/quality is not there from the source, you are not going to get it back with any preamp magic. Not to say that the Op... | |
| Best furniture to act as bass trap Looking at this chart below:https://www.atsacoustics.com/page--Selecting-the-Right-Acoustic-Material--ac.html If you compare the numbers for Owens 703 2" and Owens 703 FRK 2". Both are exactly the same fiberglass, same density, same thickness. The... | |
| Best furniture to act as bass trap @rand-11 - yeah, totally understand. It's not a tuned basstrap. However, the 703 FRK is not a tuned bass trap either. I'm just trying to say that there's some element of more efficient bass absorption when you place a flexible reflective mater... | |
| Best furniture to act as bass trap Based on what Erik stated, a leather couch may be a better bass trap. The harder leather surface may act more as a "membrane" -- this is typically used in bass traps as a more effective way of absorbing lower frequencies and at the same time refl... | |
| Are You Sorbothane Experienced? Just discovered something important, in case you are really looking at sorbothane. I looked up my order history and found out I got the 50 duro sorbothane feet. They are only 1" domes:https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00516DGIG/ref=oh_aui_detai... | |
| suggestions for Windows 10 software please, , laptop to USB DAC, AIFF files, remote app I guess I am the one who has mixed results from Fidelizer. I think on my laptop, it seemed to improve things. However, on my desktop, it decreased the overall sound quality and naturalness of the audio. It seemed to change from hi-fi to lo-fi. ... | |
| How many shipments can audio equipment survive? Agreed. If you use the proper packaging for the item and it's still in good shape, the number of shipments won't really matter. The concern over time is from the packaging material breaking down (i.e. cardboard deteriorating). Or risks such as ... | |
| Used Preamp on a budget advice please. Hi dastro. A couple thoughts. You did emphasize that you wanted a "warmer" type sound. The term "warm" does not always mean resolution. If you want more resolution, you might have to sacrifice some warmth because the higher resolution character ma... | |
| Importance of quality of coax cable feeding a DIP @audiolover718 - That's really interesting, thanks. I'm currently running a Blue Jean Beldon 1694A for my digital coax. I'm really curious how the Beldon would compare to the D-750. The Beldon is basic typical RG6 solid-core copper coax. Nothi... |
