| NEW Cerious Technologies Upgrade - Graphene Matrix Cables Any body heard dream state audio lucid dream / dream catcher PCs in their system? How about snake river audio Cottonmouth PC? I find cottonmouth very engaging on my CD player. Wonder how matrix / extreme compare to these cords. Thanks. | |
| NEW Cerious Technologies Upgrade - Graphene Matrix Cables I am curious how cerious Extreme and Matrix power cords would compare to Cardas clear beyond power cord. I am using clear beyond on tube amps (coincident Frankenstein mono blocks). Thanks guys. | |
| Upgrading path from Merlin VSM black magic Even though I have not made the move yet as I have been experimenting with subs, I thought I will chime in on couple of things. Needless to say integrating subs is real pain but could be rewarding. I am not there yet but inclined to endorse the ro... | |
| Upgrading path from Merlin VSM black magic @dgarretson and @signaturesound : thank you guys for valuable input on BAM. I will try to upgrade the BAM if I stick with VSMs. So here are the options mentioned so far in this thread. These are not necessarily suitable with SET or low power amp b... | |
| Upgrading path from Merlin VSM black magic @rodge827 do you mind sharing your experience with Merlins and how the Charney Audio Concerto compares to them? How do you describe the sound? Would be helpful to know the general character; strengths and weaknesses, compared to Merlin and/or in g... | |
| Upgrading path from Merlin VSM black magic @signaturesound Thank you for a very informative post. The coincident technology line stage (Preamp) has two single ended and one balanced output. Manual mentions that two single-ended outputs allow for bi-amping. Does this mean that both single ... | |

| Upgrading path from Merlin VSM black magic Thanks brf. I didn't think of removing BAM altogether. This seems simpler than I thought. I will give it a shot. Funk has one of the finest eq curves and digs deep. I never looked into coincident line and I would try to audition them. tubegroover.... | |
| Upgrading path from Merlin VSM black magic Tubegroover: I bought two Funk audio 18.0 master/slave subwoofers that I have not integrated yet. Overall cumbersome with BAM in the chain. It would be interesting to see if this ends the quest.To audition list: Von ScheikertCoincident Tech lineDy... | |
| Upgrading path from Merlin VSM black magic Thanks for the thoughtful response. Frankenstein mono blocks I have deliver 20W (circuit is internally modified and thus can only take 300b xls and not regular 300b). For most part, I believe lack of power is not the problem. Most of my journey wi... | |
| Improving the Sound of the Merlin Super BAM Would you mind sharing a bit more about installation procedure? feel free to send PM. Do these devices come with instructions? I am using dual Master BAMs. How much an improvement you gained after installation? Thanks. | |
| In Memoriam: Bobby Palkovich of Merlin Music I am very saddened to hear about the loss. I Met him and had good time when he visited us in Florida last year to help setup my system. I remember him as a passionate, bright and lively person. My heart goes out to his family at this difficult time. | |
| Capacitor log Mundorf Silver in Oil Ordered a pair of Jupiter Cu foil. Thank you Grannyring and Charles for the help in deciding. | |
| Capacitor log Mundorf Silver in Oil Grannyring, I appreciate your insight. Thanks. | |
| Capacitor log Mundorf Silver in Oil Thanks Grannyring. My system right now is very optimized to be very neutral , resolving and dynamic. Exactly where it should be. Capacitor upgrade is pretty academic but if anything, I would like to make my system tip towards warmth. Can always us... |
