| Why so little Primare gear on A'gon? Bad rep? I use an SP 31 as a pre/pro for dolby encoded sound from cable TV and DVD's. Its's fine sounding unit with a lot of flexiblity. Primare is distributed by Sumiko. I developed a problem, no sound from one channel. It was fixed under warranty by Sumi... | |
| Jerry Ozment has a new dac out... Update--I just spoke with Jerry Ozment and the upgrade from 24MXL to 34 MXL is still not available. He's working on maximizing the effects of the upgrade while minimizing changes that have no sonic benefit. Unfortunately for us 24 MXL owners, this... | |
| What's involved in dedicated lines thanks for the heads up shasta, a little melodramatic but thanks | |
| What's involved in dedicated lines thanks you guys, I do have the old style screw in glass fuses and I know that if I ever sell my home I'd need to convert to circuit breakers. And Steveaudio, your point about the 20 amp fuses was not O/T as that was my question, did a 20 amp fuse ... | |
| What's involved in dedicated lines In response to your post Steveaudio, I've been in this home 12 years and am not going anywhere in near future so I will look into the changout from fuses to breakers, how will that be better audiophile-wise?system incl cary preamp, pass x-250 amp,... | |
| What's involved in dedicated lines I just unscrewed the fuse (20 amp) to see what else was on the line in addition to my stereo/ht. This line controls my kitchen fluorescent light, one outlet used by a cordless phone, and two other overhead lights. Are there degrees as to how negat... | |
| What's involved in dedicated lines I mean can I use the existing junction boxes that house my existing FIM outlets? | |
| What's involved in dedicated lines Thanks Ozfly, can the outlets I use now be converted into the dedicated lines by running different cables to them, or do I have to install new, never before existing, outlets agt the end of the deeicated line runs? | |
| What's involved in dedicated lines Also, I did install some new outlets last year, FIM's, would a dedicated line necessitate using new outlets or can I use the ones I have now by runnning a new dedicated line to it? As you can see my Ph. D. is NOT in electrical engieering! | |
| What's involved in dedicated lines thanks, esp to you Harry for your thorough response. Viridian, I know that my main panel is not up to code and if and when I sell my home I'd have to replace it. Would changing it from the current fuse setup to breakers improve my stereo/ht even w... | |
| What's involved in dedicated lines thanks, but what would the electrician actually need to do? How much do I need in my checking acct? | |
| What's the oldest piece of gear in your system? like several other posters mine is a Kenwood KT-917 tuner, which I rarely use due to LOUSY radio in Miami and not a great antenna. It's also one of my all time 'deals' as I purchased a demo for $179 and they're selling used for $600-$800 now | |

| Insight w/ kora hermes 24/192 DAC? I bought one here on a'gon several months ago and could not be more pleased. I had recently sold my tube pre amp in exchange for a solid state preamp/processor and sorely missed the 'tube' sound which the Kora returned to my system. The Kora has a... |
