| Can POWER CORDS really make that big a difference? Hearhere, none of my post was aimed at anyone in specific. There are tons and tons of people that either don't believe in or are on the fence about power cords. As such, my post was meant as a "generalization" to everyone out there but was speakin... | |
| Kimber cable - good or bad? Brulee, if the tax man is nice to me this year, i'm probably going to pick up one of the OTA kits that you've mentioned. Here's to hopin' : ) Sean> | |
| 7500 for USED cables? Are they joking? Charlie aka Danvetc brings up a good point. How many people posting to this thread have ever worked in or have intimate knowledge of the recording or pro sound reinforcement field ? I am not talking about boot-legging a concert with a portable Pan... | |
| Can POWER CORDS really make that big a difference? Viggen, it's like anything else. The more involved that you get in any project, the more you can find that is either blatantly "wrong" or could simply use a little improvement. As such, a system can perform very well with stock cords but that is n... | |
| Help with voltage on amp Thanks for the clarification Herman. I guess we all learned something on that one : ) Sean> | |
| Help with voltage on amp Amp stability, gain characteristics, reliability, etc... can all be drastically effected by line voltage. If we were talking a few volts here, it would not matter. As such, you are talking about a 20% increase from what you'll probably have to wha... | |
| What's the deal with Adcom GTP 760 going so cheap? Most Adcom gear is pretty reasonable overall but doesn't seem to hold it's value. This is probably because there is so much of it out there ( rarity or lack of availability raises value ) and people are always aspiring to climb higher up the ladde... | |
| Can POWER CORDS really make that big a difference? Yes, but not always for the better. As others have suggested, i would "try before buying" i.e. pick some up from a dealer or company that allows returns if you don't like the results. Some cords seem to have very strong sonic signatures whereas ot... | |
| Goertz MI2 Python...bright??? Never tried the Python's, but their "standard" flat MI-2 sounds like it will give you what you want. This cable is higher in capacitance though, so it would be best to check with a KNOWLEDGEABLE dealer as to if you'll need the impedance compensati... | |
| Proceed Transport & Kora DAC compatability problem Simple stuff first:1) Have you tried using a different cable between transport & DAC ?2) Are you using any type of "jitterbox" between transport & DAC ? If so, remove it and make a direct connection.3) Are there any type of switches to sel... | |
| Any good HT websites... Thanks Francisco, i'll take a look at it this week-end. Sean> | |
| Best speakers in 2k-3k price point Duke, nice post and glad to see that you've joined the "I just wrote a novel" club : ) As to the Shahinian's, i think that you need an amp with great speed and control on the bottom end to get the best out of them. Otherwise, they can come across ... | |
| Kimber cable - good or bad? My HT system is bi-wired with Kimber 8TC on the lows and 4TC on the mid's / high's. I found this to be the most synergistic combo for that specific system. Like anything else though, it is a matter of personal tastes, budget and individual system ... | |
| In this corner, weighing in at.... Money left over after the upgrade ??? Money ? Who's got money ??? I've been getting all of this stuff based on my "good looks" : ) Actually Greg, i'm one of those people that like to live in the real world ( or at least think that i do ). A produc... | |
| 7500 for USED cables? Are they joking? Mark, there are manufacturers that already make the claim of their components NOT being cable sensitive i.e. all cables sound and measure the same within the confines of their system. The first that come to mind are Krell ( with their CAST system ... |
