| The BEST system you've ever built !!!! I will say the source is another APL Denon 3910, the speakers are Silverline Sonata III (which have been SOBs to find proper amplification), and the amps are Pass Labs XA-60.5. The speakers disappear in a manner the Von Scheikerts never did, and t... | |
| Anyone switich to all Signal Cable wired system? I use 30 foot balanced interconnects DIY'd with Oyaide PA-02 wire and Neutrik connectors. Of course, these could also be terminated with the RCA connectors of your choice.Not cheap, but they don't break the bank either.Another unbelievable value i... | |
| The BEST system you've ever built !!!! APL Denon 3910/Lamm LL2 Deluxe/Moscode 401HR/Von Schweikert VR4 Gen III HSE.Sold off in 2006.My new system is 90% there, and will eventually eclipse the above system. | |
| Benz Micro M2 loading I was once advised that loading a cart at about 9 times the cart's output impedance is a good starting point... so for the M2 with 24 ohm output impedance, that makes the loading just a hair under 220 ohms.I own a Benz Ace Medium with the same .8m... | |
| To stack or not to stack - limited space for amps I think stacking Class D amps should not be a problem. | |
| Anyone switich to all Signal Cable wired system? You won't know until you try it, and the Signal Cable products come with a 30 day return privilege, don't they?After looking at your system, my hunch is that lack of refinement in the Signal Cable will be revealed...likely adding grain, IMO. | |
| Purist Ann. Contego vs Shunyata Anac Alpha Helix I am not surprised you considered the Rev B Fluid to be dark sounding.In my system, the Dominus Rev B Fluid cords emphasized the midbass and bass regions, and they weren't particularly controlled in those areas compared with the Dominus Ferrox Rev... | |
| Small room, "budget priced" speaker advice, please I have also read posts suggesting that they are overly bright and rather bass-shy, and may also be hard to drive.Rebbi (Threads)IMO, that sounds like the author had heard them with an amp that was not a good match, i.e. one that did not double po... | |
| Authenticating Autographed Items? I agree that Davt's sentiments are spot on.I also believe Slipknot1, being a GD memorabilia collector, is likely a valuable resource for info. | |
| Safe Shipping, Fact or Fiction How critical is the original packaging to successful shipping?Ledzep (Threads | Answers)It's critical. I wouldn't purchase an item without it's original packaging regardless of the seller's feedback.Stay away from FED EX and UPS...They love to pl... | |
| Safe Shipping, Fact or Fiction Electronics, including amplifiers, preamplifiers and source machines that are shipped with their original inner packaging and outer boxes have always been safely delivered to me. Double boxing is helpful, but has not been necessary.Speakers shippe... | |
| Authenticating Autographed Items? The FBI says 80% of autographed memorabilia is fake. | |
| I just went up two notches in resolution There's so much positive buzz about the 150Mlx I decided to order one. Couldn't hold off any longer.$249 from J&R with free shipping. | |
| my sl 1210 is louder on the right channel Swapping the phono leads and interconnects will change the left channel to the right speaker and vice versa. But if one channel is always lower than the other...say the left is lower than the right, then swapping the wires at some point in the sig... | |
| Swapping the MMF 5 for an SL-1210M5G Can you describe the noise? I can't wrap my head around what you're hearing.If you look closely at the side of the cartridge while it's playing, do you see any part of the cartridge body touching the record? Only the stylus is on the record, yes?T... |
