| Two preamps are available.... If its as reputable company the refurbished would be thoroughly checked over before put back in the box. With usual quality control it will be checked, but not always as much as a refurbished unit. At least, that was how it was when I worked fo... | |
| Directionality of wire David,I would have to keep my car radio off if what you said is true. Rotate my tires after every two or three songs? ;) I'd be better off listening only to talk radio if that were the case.... I still think those who can not hear the difference... | |
| Directionality of wire >>>>I recently wrote him on the subject and he responded that absent shunting off to ground/dialectric designs, the idea of wire directionality is a complete myth. Same with resistors and fuses. <<<<<He is going to alien... | |
| Can upgraded power cords help my setup? The AC 14SE MKII ! Those are class D amps in the Kefs. . The AC 9SE MKII's are for high current, high power, analog amps. You'd be surprised how Class D will save you on your electrical bill. I tried the 9's on a regular powered amp and it ... | |
| Interesting experience with a wall wart Whatever DC power supply you decide will be best for your situation... You might want to consider adding this in the power link...http://ifi-audio.com/portfolio-view/accessory-dcipurifier/ | |
| 901 series 2 speakers I had them.... even heard them on tubes (MC 275)...One major hurdle ... the equalizer is the destroyer of the sound. If I were to have Bose 901's today? I would get a Barcus Berry Sonic Maximizer and chuck the Bose EQ box. I am no fan of the 90... | |
| Power Cord Recommendation Currently using a Pangea AC9? ..... Not really a good match for the type of amp you have.The AC9 is designed for high current amps. Its brutal. You need something more nuanced with excellent smooth detailed sound. I would look at the Pangea ... | |
| After nearly 20 years, I left Magnepan and went ProAc The spikes that have a little jiggle? That may allow your speakers to breath. Lock them down? And, you may find the sound becomes a bit choked. I discovered this years ago when I locked down my speakers from wall mounts. Then hung them from c... | |
| Time for a change. Need some Advice You might want to try to learn the art and benefits of near field listen. Room effects are minimized that way. Smaller rooms make a great candidate. Yet, I listen near field in a large room. Didn't have to fiddle with too much room treatments . | |
| Please Critique my Setup and Recommend Upgrade(s) Bought them last week? It can take weeks before all that new equipment burns in! Its not going to reach its potential until it does. Just adding one piece of new equipment into a broken in system will take it down a notch. When everything is ... | |
| Class D = Trash? NuPrime changes everything.... Amps = NuPrime ST-10 NuPrime STA-9... NuPrime STA 6. They have also a great line of integrated amps. These have a sweetness to them that most other class D’s can not touch.http://www.nuprimeaudio.com/index.php/produc... | |
| Have ~$10-12k...what would you do? I would spend about about 3-4,000... and save the rest. I would invest in a high end power conditioner. (like and Audience Adept) For, more money does not get you better, unless what you already have, is being made the best it can be. | |
| Absolute Sound - do we really need another review like this? Irony of ironies.... Both Absolute Sound and Stereophile did such a fantastic job in educating and creating a group of highly informed audiophiles, that they rendered the need for their publications to become no longer needed... in many ways. B... | |
| Anticables: Scam? I have experience with AntiCables. The design eliminates a distortion that is produced typically by multi stranded cables in signal transfer. There is a fuzzy quality that can be heard on systems that have enough transparency to unmask this effe... | |
| Why does it take so many hours to brea in arc preamps and amps? >> "I have yet to hear a tube amp that sounds as good after 5 minutes than it does after 1 hour let alone 4 hours." <<<I think you are confusing 'warm up time' with the process of 'burning in - breaking in.' Warm up time may take ... |
