| Morrow Audio MA5 Interconnects. I use Morrow Audio MA3 interconnects and I love them, but be prepared to go through a long period of break in before they open up and sound amazing! These cables reward you big time if you can show patience. I use Nordost SPM speaker cables and th... | |
| A battle between two turntable generations. Which one is the winner? When I first started spinning again I purchased a REGA P3 and after a few cartridges and Groove Tracer upgrades I found the Dynavector 10X5 Rega combo to be very lively and made me want to listen a lot.

| DAC upgrade or Amplifier Based on your equipment I would say... try a different source, and I would try some different cables from Kimber or Morrow Audio. The Adcom amp and pre amp are not the problem. Speaker placement is key as well for depth...Nothing in between speake... | |
