| Jitter and 75ohm cable length Kijanki, if one suspects they have a Jitter problem with their system, how might it manifest it's impact on the analog output. I had read an article indicating that high Jitter would make vocals sound overly warm, which actually may be desireable?... | |
| Jitter and 75ohm cable length Magfan, I had to send in my unit once for repair about a year or so ago where the transport had problems loading a disk. When I received the unit back they provided a note where they said in addition to the repair they upgraded some power supply c... | |
| Jitter and 75ohm cable length Thank you Al and Vhiner. Canare has it's own set of cable and terminations, where HAVE seems to use their choice of cable with the Canare terminations, hence, HAVE/Canare. Specifically, HAVE uses GEPCO International VSD2001 High Definition 75ohm S... | |
| Jitter and 75ohm cable length Back again with a twist. I repeated my experiment with the three cables however I introduced a "reference", by that I mean my CDP. To keep things on a fair playing field, I made a CD-R copy of a decent recording I own, Jazz at the Pawnshop, I then... | |
| Wadia 171i Digital Transport Sound Issues My quest to get what i think to be the best possible sound quality out of the Wadia ended up indeed to be the cable connection between itself and my DAC, it is sensitive in this regard. I learned a great deal about digital cables along my way and ... | |
| Wadia 171i Digital Transport Sound Issues It seems the weakness in my system between the iDock and D/A is the interface. I've tried three different well known interfaces with the Canare coming out on top, still there is something slight missing. Perhaps, this is the best I can get when I ... | |
| Wadia 171i Digital Transport Sound Issues Yes, I've tried lossless to and found it to be very good, in fact most of my files are applelossless. I reintroduced my old Canare cable and there was a marked improvement, gone was the booming base and back was a smoother, more relaxed top end wi... | |
| Wadia 170i v.s 171i Digital Transport Well my question has been answered and brought to closure. I purchased the 171i and right out of the box it sounded much better than the 170i. I understand that Wadia is going to continue to offer the 170i, why I'm not sure, other than it's a coup... | |
| Do Interconnects need to "warm up"? Sebrof, excellent point, never thought about the speakers warming up, it's probably most likely that? | |
| Wadia 170i v.s 171i Digital Transport Dear Grege, thanks for the response. Can you be a bit more specific in how the docks you are suggesting are superior? Thanks! | |
| Special Sub-Woofer IC's Thanks, Antipodes, I appreciate your opinion as an actual cable designer. I'm going to save some $$ and stick with my well working full range cables. | |
| Special Sub-Woofer IC's Thanks, appreciate your opinion! It's along my same lines of thinking. Rpg | |
| Upgrading Wadia 170i IDoc to new 171 IPod dock Naggots, where can I learn how to open the Wadia? Is it something you can explain? I know I can most likely replace the components It's just not clear to me how to open the box - please help, thanks!Rpg | |
| Upgrading Wadia 170i IDoc to new 171 IPod dock Naggots, I'm using the optional CIAudio V9.0 power supply $275 with my 170i, I don't think it made as huge a difference as the dealer claimed, however there was slight improvement over the wall-wart. Will these voltage regulators you speak of stil... | |
| Upgrading Wadia 170i IDoc to new 171 IPod dock Sounds like they went to shipping too early. In another post a member said they would stick with their 170i until the bugs were worked out of the 171, I think that was a smart choice. I remember Wadia was a bit late in shipments of the 171i and th... |
