| PS: Typical McGowan Sound? -- HCA-2 & Classic 250 Kevziek, you don't need my help to discredit you, your own diametrically opposed posts do that.And you say that is not you at AA. Funny thing, I previously did a search and your equipment here and over at AA is coincidentally the same. Just like i... | |
| PS: Typical McGowan Sound? -- HCA-2 & Classic 250 Kevziek, what a weak and juvenile response.And I suspect that Paul McGowan and PS Audio would consider your continued diatribes as harassment considering the fact that you continue to slam a product you haven't even heard.You have decided to fabri... | |
| PS: Typical McGowan Sound? -- HCA-2 & Classic 250 Kevziek, I do find the following quote a bit strange in light of your rant in this thread about how poorly the HCA-2 measures:---------------09-18-02: Author ?"The accuracy thing bugs me. Nothing out there is accurate. Every amp presents a facsimi... | |
| PS: Typical McGowan Sound? -- HCA-2 & Classic 250 "You can't trust the reviewers." And you call me paranoid, Kevziek? Get real.My response had nothing to do with my ownership and I could care less what you buy. My only point was why insinuate that the amp doesn't justify the hype when you haven't... | |
| PS: Typical McGowan Sound? -- HCA-2 & Classic 250 I find this statement rather odd."In looking at the responses to the Audiogon review, it is interesting to see that half the responders love it; the other half hate it."Kevziek, your entire post seems to be a very subtle and clever attempt to bash... | |
| Preamp Deal of the Century Now try Herbies Tenderfoot isolation feet. They are just as amazing. I put them under every component and the clarity increased dramatically. | |
| Anyone heard the Odyssey monos vs Plinius amps? Dannylw,How many hours were on the PS HCA-2?What power cord was used with it?The HCA-2 changes dramatically during break-in and doesn't really sing until 200 hours. It is also very power cord dependent.If you heard the HCA-2 with less than 200 hou... | |
| Equipment Break-in: Fact or Fiction Will the sun shine tomorrow? Components definitely break in. | |
| Preamp Deal of the Century Slowhand, sorry for not responding. I have been out of commission with oral surgery (still am actually). TWL pretty much took care of it though. Be back in a few more days. | |
| Preamp Deal of the Century For those of you experiencing noisey tubes, you might want to try Hal-O tube dampers. I read about them in the Tube Asylum and ordered them for all of my Chardonnay tubes (they are cheap), as well as my DAC tubes.They made a tremendous difference.... | |
| Interconnect help for a NEUTRAL system HMS Gran Finale Top Match. They are outstanding! | |
| Looking for the right interconnect Wombat, I have not tried every IC here, but I have tried a number of them. After chasing my tail through AZ, HT, Kimber, Analysis Plus, etc. I finally decided to up the ante. You didn't say what your budget was so I will just give you my experienc... | |
| Tell me if i got it wrong.. Man, you guys proselytize your positions on very esoteric levels. That's all well and good, but if you are going to do so, at least use spel chek so you don't lose the credibility you worked so hard to establish. | |
| Can Someone Explain This? Cornfedboy, this is a true story. I saw a lawyer walking down the street the other day and he had his hands in his own pockets. :) | |
| Sibilance how do I get rid of it? I will second everything Stehno said. I think AC power is the primary source of sibilance, followed by interconnects and cables. Some seem to be better and worse than others. I just changed interconnects and the remaining sibilance that is not "re... |
