| Would new speakers---- If a new girlfriend could sing like an angel I wouldn't need audio. | |
| Ideal way to set up the OPPO 105? Hgeifman, that is very nice to know indeed! It makes me wish I got the 105 instead of the 103. Sounds like a very nice way to get into PC audio by at least streaming what the internet has to offer as a way of getting one's feet wet. You made it se... | |
| Problems with Mapleshade cables Tubegroove, No, I haven't had the pleasure of trying the Omegas. They looked tempting. As for speaker ribbon cables I believe Ed Shilling over at Hornshoppe Horns still uses them and back when I had his Horn single drivers, he offered to make me a... | |
| Tone Controls can be so nice. Thanks Mesch and yes, Holiday Cheers to one and all.May the music sooth your souls,The tubes warm your hearts,The cables convey the thoughts,The source be aplenty,The speakers be truthful.Now back to driving myself crazy.All the best,Nonoise | |
| Tone Controls can be so nice. Cdc,In my opening post I stated that the difference I heard was when new. Now when I switch it off and on with the slight bass boost, it's done on the fly while playing and the difference is in the bass. Nothing else is amiss that I can tell but i... | |
| Tone Controls can be so nice. Deeper into the rabbit hole we go.......LIke my experience with my Marantz (forgetting about the tone controls), I remembered that my Tonian Labs Tl-D1s are a semi-open baffle design and that there are three different vent settings on the rear sid... | |
| incredible inexpensive speaker I can see where one would get excited with the sound of this speaker. That BMR is passive and takes the place of an actual tweeter making it something like a augmented widebander and we all know how seamless and coherent a properly done widebander... | |
| Problems with Mapleshade cables Okay everyone, time to disembark the bash the Mapleshade train. Pierre's SC are quite good, if not outright great in my system. I upgraded from his basic Clearview SC to the Double Helix SC and never had the urge to look any further.They've better... | |
| Best portable for FM? I have the same problem where I work. I can get decent reception is I hold my portable radio just so but as soon as I turn, bend or move it in any way, it buggers out. The same thing happens as soon as something turns on.I really look forward to l... | |
| Problems with Mapleshade cables Yes, they are fragile and I noticed that they're not made the same way as the ones I have stored away somewhere. The connectors I have are what appears to be locking brass connectors and what they sell now look rather humble and homemade.I hate to... | |
| Parasound CD-1 Heys guys, sorry to not posted sooner but I've not heard it yet. I'm sorry if my last post gave the impression that I had and thanks for thinking my impressions would amount to something :-)All the best,Nonoise | |
| Cost effective Schumann Resonator I have a Quantum device, which I believe does the same thing, that's been in my system for many years and I think I'm ohque.All the best,Nonoise | |
| Power Cords: A Skeptic Looking to Dabble... If, like me, you're not that handy with building your own PC, then check out Cullen Cables. They're in your price range and are very well made. No hocus pocus, just solid design.All the best,Nonoise | |
| Tone Controls can be so nice. Thank you all for your civil responses, whether you agree or not with my findings, and thanks Al, for that pat on the back. As much as I used to be a "straight wire with gain" kinda guy, this matter with the tone control helps in ways I thought no... | |
| Recommend an integrated amp, $800-$1000 Marantz PM8004. It's made in Japan alongside the Reference Series components and not in China. Try to find someone like Music Direct who will allow you to audition one.All the best,Nonoise |
