| Duelund DCA16GA Alex, I did and was picking up a bit of hum. So I unsoldered them and wrapped them in the copper and the hum is gone, but not any of the dynamics, which I feared would happen. Just the interconnects, not the speaker cables, mind you.It was a fun p... | |
| Duelund DCA16GA And for what it's worth: Some months ago, I consulted privately with grannyring when I decided to try my (soldering)hand at making my own speaker cables and RCA interconnects. After purchasing tens of meters of Dueland 12g, 16g, and 20g, as well a... | |
| Duelund DCA16GA Between 3/4 and 7/8. | |
| Tekton Double Impacts Xenophon-Good call on The Motherlode(said with some bias)...you will love it! Aric is great to work with, and his gear is first rate! | |
| Aric Audio Systems Unlimited Preamp Aric, I just wanted to follow up on my last contribution to this particular forum by saying this: The Motherlode is completely broken and is in full bloom. Without the use of hyperbole and audio superlatives, I would happily pay triple the price o... | |
| Tekton Double Impacts @david_ten My apologies for the delay in reply in regard to your inquiry as to how my DI SE's are settling in...you very well that is rhetorical. They have completely broken now and they sound incredible! The fine detail, the deep, punchy bass, th... | |
| Tekton Double Impacts So as a piggy back to earlier posts regarding whether to consider the DI's, or go all out on the SE's...I just popped the top on my newly delivered SE's earlier today. I am about 50 tracks into the audition/break-in and I can state without hesitat... | |
| Aric Audio Systems Unlimited Preamp I just happened to stumble upon this thread and thought I would add some color to it, as I am the extremely proud and excited owner of The Motherlode that has been mentioned to date. I originally discovered Aric and Aric Audio on the Tekton Double... | |
| Tekton Double Impacts @charles1dad , Aric and I have not decided on the tube specific as yet. He mentions that he is working on some projects that push our decision one way or another. As mentioned, this piece is a bit further out for me.@corelli, HBD indeed! This thre... | |
| Tekton Double Impacts Good day all, and with all apologies to grannyring.During the last couple of weeks as I have been thoroughly enjoying the break-in process of Aric Audio's, The Motherlode, I have had many private inquiries about the piece. I have tried to reply to... | |
| Tekton Double Impacts Thanks Bill! As mentioned, you were instrumental in this collaborative process. | |
| Tekton Double Impacts Update on Aric Audio's, The Motherlode.The long awaited delivery took place yesterday afternoon. Taking into consideration that the big Dueland capacitors can take a few hundred hours to break in, and I am using freshly unboxed NOS tubes from Andy... | |
| Tekton Double Impacts @david_ten-Yes, I was using the Oppo to feed the XP-20. Prior to the Oppo, I had an old(er) Copland 288 CD/SACD transport. | |
| Tekton Double Impacts @sbayne-Thanks! However, as I have mentioned, Bill's(grannyring) guidance, and Aric's willingness and talents to pull this off, take centerstage. I cannot begin to express my excitement about seeing and hearing it in person!On an unrelated note, ... | |
| Tekton Double Impacts Agreed...stated with some bias, obviously. |
