| Surge Protection Advice Depending on how much needs to be plugged into it, I can recommend the Shunyata Venom Defender (for a single outlet), I just got one and am using it and am extremely satisfied with its performance! | |
| ARC CD3 follow up questions Thank you Jafant and Mofimadness, it sure is good to hear music in the house again with the CD3 back and it sounds a little better each time I play something! I called ARC about the selective disc problem and left a message for Cal and am just wai... | |
| ARC CD3 follow up questions Disc read problem hasn't been addressed as of yet but, it also is not unique as it was also present in the ARC CD2 that I owned prior to this. I will call Kal and ask him later today and report what he has to say but it's just funny that the disc ... | |
| ARC CD3 follow up questions Thank you so much Mofimadness. I thought there would be a time frame to expect but, wasn't sure how much to expect. I was listening yesterday to Dire Straights "On Every Street" and already what a change I heard! The sound was a bit more relaxed a... | |
| ARC CD 3 Doesn't read disc? Thanks both of you for your useful suggestions, I'll try my Disc Washer CD lens cleaner again and also try my cleaning the disc with Ultra Bit. Just wondering because the Phillips Pro 2 is a 3 beam laser as opposed to a single ( because it will pl... | |
| Any ideas?? ARC CD 3 doesn't work I'd prefer not to but, the cost was very reasonable (imho) and was less than what I had feared it might be and the Venom Defender just arrived as I was writing this too, so I'm a happy guy today and the CD 3 is on it's journey back home to me :). ... | |
| Any ideas?? ARC CD 3 doesn't work Funny you should ask, I just heard from ARC yesterday that the CD 3 is ready to come home (yeah!!). Everything else was fine but... they did have to replace 5 caps in the power supply and did just some maintainence lubing the transport and also re... | |
| Bi-Wire Tuning Jdrouin, I'm using cables that have 2 different thickness on my Apogee Slant 6s in bi-wired form (as spec'd from my provider), and yes they made a difference and I have done a bit of what you've also said. The biggest way I have found to help is w... | |
| Any ideas?? ARC CD 3 doesn't work Will let you know what they say. They were closed for the Thanksgiving weekend when I wrote and asked so, I'm just waiting to hear back but, so far as reported it sounds like all else is up to snuff and will be put back to proper specs. | |
| Any ideas?? ARC CD 3 doesn't work Thanks,I'll do that | |
| Any ideas?? ARC CD 3 doesn't work Just got the quote back from ARC and it seems that there is (was) a cap failure and the quote wasn't nearly as bad as I had feared I've called and OK'd repairs and am giving Thanks and can't wait to have it come home again. | |
| Any ideas?? ARC CD 3 doesn't work CD 3 is now at Audio Research (as of yesterday) now just hope that the diagnosis is not too bad. Will update when info becomes available. | |
| What cables are you running with your ARC gear Grover Huffman cables are what makes my system sing. His Balanced cable made an night and day difference for me with my CD 3 Mk 2 and Silver bi-wire for my speakers. I've posted many accolades about them and of course this is my subjective opinion... | |
| Any ideas?? ARC CD 3 doesn't work Well, the CD 3 is off to ARC to find out what's wrong. My local tech couldn't locate what was wrong but was very gracious and did not charge me a cent for his efforts in doing so. I'll post the diagnosis when I get it and I'll be ordering the Veno... | |
| Any ideas?? ARC CD 3 doesn't work It is my belief that no he is not an authorized ARC tech but has worked on most all of the high end componets in the market place and he is about the only one in the area that is trusted enough to do any repairs. He has contacted ARC a couple of t... |
