"Thumbs Up" to Kora Customer Service
Two sides to this coin. 1) Kora obviously stands behind their product and is highly concerned about customer service & satisfaction2) Judging by the responses and the limited number of Kora products in circulation, it appears that Kora has a f... 
Anything wrong with Treshold "T" series??
The "T" series makes use of output devices that are no longer available from what i understand. Having owned several amps that made use of similar circuitry with the same devices and pounding on them day after day, i would not worry about this too... 
Cables "Burn In"
Bob, what does the Purist disc do that no other disc or combinations of discs can offer ? Since one can find recordings with white noise, pink noise, brown noise, sine waves, square waves, triangle waves, frequency sweeps, etc... and all of the va... 
consensus on passive preamps?
One of my DAC's has the option of running line level out to a preamp or through a stepped passive attenuator system. Since the DAC was built to produce 4 volts of output, lack of drive when going passive is not a problem. I've tried it both ways w... 
Why are there so many unopened amps, ect for sale?
Budrew, what came of that situation ? While i can understand the manufacturers point that they want their product back, i can also understand that it puts them in a helluva situation in terms of customer service / satisfaction. Even if the guy did... 
Power cords for Ayre
I think that Charles Hansen is a smart guy and a good designer. As such, he takes "real world" power conditions into consideration in his designs. I know this as he wrote a 5 part series of articles about RFI / EMI, AC noise, pole mounted transfor... 
Help, moved and very unhappy the sound of the syst
If you can't get the amount of voltage and current that you need out of the wall to begin with, there isn't a device made that will give it to you. Sean> 
Why are there so many unopened amps, ect for sale?
I have no idea why people would do such a thing, nor will i fathom a guess. Whether they are legit or not could only be found out by buying them and finding out. You can pay your money and take your chances...As to warranties being covered, Brysto... 
Cables "Burn In"
Pbb, as i've mentioned before to others here, you are more than welcome to send me some cables to "burn" for you so long as you cover the shipping both ways. I don't mind doing favors, but i'm not footing the bill for your postage : ) Sean> 
Do power cords really matter?
Will, if i get my act together here ( i'm working on it ), i'll soon be doing some testing that should be able to document the differences amongst power cords. Once i can do that, i should be able to come up with a design that is a more effective ... 
Will hookig up only 2 channels on a 3 amp hurt the
You might have something defective in one channel that is "out of balance" with the other channel that it is being bridged with. As such, have you tried running all four of the channels individually ? You can do this one at a time, two at a time, ... 
Do power cords really matter?
If people would stop thinking of power cords as an extension of the wall outlet and instead think of them as an extension of the power supply ( with the potential for various amounts of tuning / filtration / impedance alterations included ), this ... 
Help, moved and very unhappy the sound of the syst
hahaha... you might end up with something like that depending on your room, speakers and listening preferences : ) Sean> 
newbie need help on decision on buying an amp
Two situations can arise out of your question. Either your source component and preamp don't have enough output to really drive the KR or the KR is too small of an amp for what you want to do with your system. If you've had the same sources and pr... 
Will hookig up only 2 channels on a 3 amp hurt the
There is no problem with doing what you are doing in terms of leaving a channel "dead". Since i am not familiar with this amp ( have seen one but never used or read about them ), when you go into two channel mode, are you bridging the four channel...
