| Has anyone tried Blue Jeans Cable LC-1 RCA IC? agree = try some real basic DIY first, learn what they sound like in your system and then judge what a more expensive cable can do for you. If DIY is too hard for you to do, then get some BJ, and educate your ears. | |
| Spectron amps-biwire=Remote sense+other cables? I am not entirely clear on your specific set up question but I use two pairs of speaker cables per mono spectron on my Von Schweikerts, one pair running from the remote sense outs on the amp driving the bass modules, one other pair of cables per a... | |
| Nuforce amp with PS Audio Powerplant Premier I tried a Nuforce amp (the 8 series) with and without a PPP. I had no problems either way and preferred it with the PPP, as I do most components I've tried with that conditioner. | |
| Jim Thiel has passed. As Albert Porter notes above-- this has been a terrible year for losing great talent. We can argue endlessly about differences in gear but it takes a special person to create that gear in the first place. Jim was one such special talent and his co... | |
| Austin, TX Hey Macdadtexas, maybe we're too busy listening to live music (which you can still do in Austin any night) to be messing about with cables wondering how well the sonics compare to real musical instruments that we almost never hear :) But seriously... | |
| Rack Recommendation for VK-600 Steve Blinn racks can accommodate the BAT, either in a stand alone amp rack or as part of his basic multi-shelf designs. His racks are all adjustable, with thick maple shelves and metal supports. Email him and he'll accommodate your needs easily. | |
| What preamp to pair with Spectron Clearly there's lots of support for a good tube preamp with the Mus 3s, but has anyone ever paired a Pass Labs pre with the Spectron? Or had great experience with a SS preamp? Just curious..... | |
| Spectron amplifier - new black faceplate? OK, from your note about where you bought these (having myself bought from Simon) I figure these are what you are referring to, the Yeil M&C Magnetic Levitation Devices:http://mcv-consulting.com/cart/magnetic-levitation-devices-p-189.htmlAnyon... | |
| Austin, TX DonThere is a relative active set of groups in Texas and the Austin folks have got together a couple of times in the last year but most of the action seems to be in Houston or Dallas. The best way of staying in touch with any or all folks in Austi... | |
| Spectron amplifier - new black faceplate? Hum...what are these 'levitation' devices and where can I find out more about them? I quite like the Aurios under mine, but generally, better footers seem to have an impact on most components and the Spectrons are no different. | |
| Has Anyone Criticized The Choice Of Your Cables? I find many people get annoyed with power cords that seem out of the ordinary in terms of design and (particularly) price. Virtual Dynamics cables seem to be a magnet for such comments.....especially from those who don't own or sell them. While it... | |
| Spectron Remote Sense Cable Thanks Simon -- most interesting. From what I can tell, given that I have the monoblocks and biwirable speakers, I'd need to order the mono wired cables and jumpers. Not entirely clear if I should then connect the speaker cable to the uppers or lo... | |
| Spectron Remote Sense Cable Thanks-- I will watch the Spectron site -- thought it seems to be slow to update anything in the last year, maybe a new design is on the way. I am most interested in learning how to biwire with these cables in a mono set up. | |
| Spectron Remote Sense Cable Steve - what did you use after moving to monos? Could you not employ these with jumpers or perhaps in double runs? | |
| Spectron Musician III - Can anyone comment on it? Hi Zybar -- so what's the verdict? |
