| Blind Listening Tests? Oh,I forgot/ the last test I took: I studied for hours on end. I only got a C- on my urine test. Sorry, I just want to poke some fun here. I don't think listening to music has to be that complicated. Yes, I have room treatments, power cords,isolat... | |
| Heavy Metaller needs some class ical . I may have a different take on how one changes/intakes/ different types of music. Ok,much of my "new,life- style" changes were/are tied to other outside influences. Say for an example you met a new friend,who played the piano/fell in love with som... | |
| Blind Listening Tests? Well,I was trying to get Ray Charles;or Stevie Wonder to come over but they had plans.Listening is so subjective; what care I if someone likes "this" over "that"? Most of "my" listening is done while I'm here. No "head in a vise" for me. I wished ... | |
| Any good suggestions for phono cable? I have the vpi jr. I have the cardas termination block,so I can use any standard rca ic. I have the XLO SIG 3.1 cable. You break this in on your cd player/to pre amp(much higher voltage). After 6 days on repeat it is well broken in. Then you use i... | |
| RCA vs XLR I'm generalizing,but most equipment only sounds best if you are balanced from source to amp.This refers to true balanced operation. Some pieces have bal,in or out for convience only. | |
| CAT Phono Stage I might be one of the few who had to disconnect the ground from the tt.You might try it w/ no volume. Also, is the hum in both channels? If it's only one channel;swap the right left ics. No other source has hum? Good luck. | |
| Threshold T200 sound quality? This was a great amp along with the 10/te(similar) pre amp. How it compares to todays stuff----well at the price and you didn't have to use a gun--go for it. | |
| help with absolute phase Many pre maker/designers do this. I saves one step the signal doesn't have to pass thru,within the pre. You just reverse the leads going to speakers themselves. The bass will be dead center and stronger when you are in phase. | |
| What is the meaning of a true audiophile ANSWER :....An audiophile who doesn't lie?? Wife....... You paid HOW Much FOR THAT???...And what is this thing going to do?? | |
| Dealer Bias: Do They Really Add Value? Yes,it's not the quality of the pieces,it's the quality of the music.I find I have to read between the lines,here and with the dealers. I guess it's the "uphill" struggle we enjoy.--?? I mean;do we want it to be that easy? "Winning" against the od... | |
| RBH SPEAKERS Thanks,Mr bookner. My first post wasn't meant to be rude. There are many pieces I know nothing about;and that can be said about a lot of us. | |
| Perpetual P-3A vs Bel Canto DAC-1 vs MSB Sorry Kitty, I can't ans. your question either. However, it's not a bad question. Both have the status of killer products at reasonable prices.Not like you were comparing DCS /Levenson to either of these. | |
| Wanted DB-25 to 6 RCA interconnect Mine ain't for sale, but I have this set connecting my Citation7.0 and the MSB piece. It was 250,at the time of the purchase/and I had to wait 3 weeks for it. | |
| 24/96 Theta Pro Gen Va Elgordo,smart is the word your looking for,if you bought it used. Don't beat yourself up over it. That's my job. Great sonic improvement tho huh?? | |
| High-End Power Cable for TV? Way to go Al,kinda gutsy, glad it worked so well. |
