| Having a problem when HVAC system turns on and cuts my system off! Depends on the design of the outlet & outlet box. This theory could be tested by running a ground wire to the plumbing. But, it won’t work if it's PVC. Is there an external ground lug on any of your power conditioners? | |
| Having a problem when HVAC system turns on and cuts my system off! The HVAC might be causing a ground differential when kicking on. Try grounding the Lyngdorf chassis to an external ground. | |
| Boomslang Digital Cable Review @hgeifman I’m extremely pleased with the Boomslang. It definitely surpasses several other digital cables that I’ve owned over the years. Burning it in beforehand allows you to hear its core presentation right away. I have since added a SRA Signatu... | |
| Vibration isolation Have you been experimenting with the Symposium Rollerblocks 2+ Series or Symposium Rollerblock Jrs? Big difference. The Jrs are much less forgiving. To specifically address the brightness issue, I’ve had success with the Symposium Rollerblocks 2+... | |
| Stand alone tweeter? James1969 nailed it. The cause is dirty power. Been there and fixed it. Research the Audiogon archives for multiple solutions. A temporary fix is to toe the speakers out a little more so that the HF doesn’t beam at your listening chair. When the ... | |
| More effecient speakers? The AZ Adagio’s have a fairly flat impedance curve. Meaning it’s relatively amp friendly already - especially with your SS Hegel. Take your entire system into account when ’upgrading’. Have you optimized your cabling and power delivery? For cablin... | |
| One pair of speakers, two different speaker wire Not at all. I used to combine cabling frequently with both my tube and SS amps - until I found a brand that does both. | |
| Soundstage and explosive dynamics? james_w514 +1 I’ve heard the JBL Synthesis K2 a couple of times at shows. It has as a very powerful presentation - even at soft to moderate listening levels. One time was in a smallish space. I was very impressed that the speaker didn’t over-po... | |
| The new Synergistic Research BLUE fuses .... @dbarger The OP is in sales. He does tend to hyperbolize. Still, there usually is a benefit with the tweaks he promotes. The degree varies from system to system. | |
| The new Synergistic Research BLUE fuses .... wolf_garcia OP thread I appreciate all of this...although I think my comprehension capabilities are being woefully overestimated.He seems to acknowledge the results of tube rolling. But, not much else. I'm using them (they're stock with a new JD5... | |
| The new Synergistic Research BLUE fuses .... randy-11 ".or.. do something that is known to be important. . ." Do these ’known to be important’ tests require the use of the Spudnik R-11, your ’newly tuber ARC pre-amp’ as stated in the Teo cable thread? And do these tests need to be known only... | |
| Teo Game-Changer IC's - get on the bus! randy-11 ". . . I have a newly tuber ARC pre-amp"In this tuber preamp, do the HF’s get waxy? Do the LF’s get starchy? Is the midrange mashed? Perhaps, ARC customer service could join in. Did they modify an existing model just for randy? Or will th... | |
| Teo Game-Changer IC's - get on the bus! I have a newly tuber ARC pre-amp Congratulations!!! It’ll probably sound great when you put a good power cord on it. And interconnects, too! Teo Audio has some really nice ones. | |
| Teo Game-Changer IC's - get on the bus! Yesand tarass - you have good advice for teo and his shill boys With a response like that, is it possible that randy-11 escaped from this Coen brothers’ movie? | |
| Teo Game-Changer IC's - get on the bus! @randy-11 Have you auditioned any of the cables in the Teo Audio line? If not, why are you bashing a product that you’ve never heard? Do people denigrate your work in online discussion forums? From previous threads, you enjoy being one of the firs... |
