| Modwright SWL 9.0SE Pre ... your thoughts welcome Called Dan today...twice...and each time he answered the telephone on the first ring, and proceeded to answer my questions in a thoroughly helpful and professional manner. He responds to e-mails equally as promptly.How can anyone NOT want to do bu... | |
| How come there is no thread on the RealityCheck? Exlibris wrote:In my experience, the CD duplicates create a silence between images, but reduce "air." This tends to make poorly recorded studio albums sound cleaner and clearer.This echoes my observations as I listened and compared three original ... | |
| Simple enough? If the cord is feeding a power conditioner that in turn feeds the cdp, then yes, I'd say at least 10 gauge.Another very flexible power cord that can be custom sized is the VH Audio AirSine. | |
| Simple enough? Nsgarch's suggestion of 10gauge or larger is one with which I agree.I will simply add that I use cords from five different manufacturers, and my suggestion of the Shunyata was entirely based on the criteria of flexibility. I also use a Kimber PK10... | |
| Simple enough? The most flexible "killer" power cords I've owned have been Shunyata Python and Anaconda. I'm sure you could order a custom short length, and the new Helix line is supposed to be something special. | |
| Best Isolation HRS? SRA? Zoethecus? Symposium? I use a non-audiophile rack, too. Depending on the configuration of your shelves, Ken Lyon at Greater Ranges can custom build Neuance shelves to fit your rack. I use one for my digital source, and Ken custom made it to fit my Salamander cabinet.I ... | |
| Best undiscovered speakers on the market today ? I've been posting like a madman at every opportunity on this site to maybe prompt even ONE PERSON--somewhere in the United States--to at least give these things a LISTEN.How does one do this in Los Angeles? | |
| EMC-1UP SE interconnect? I owned an EMC 1-UP SE, and I found it sounded best, especially the size of the soundstage, when running balanced. I was not using particularly high end interconects at the time, although they sounded quite goood...Harmonic Truthlink. | |
| VPI Scout vs. Thorens 165 Jaybo, thanks for your response. You wrote:the vpi may be the more superior product, but when you get to 'satisfaction' and 'pride of ownership' issues, the thorens is the winner.Can you be more specific about why the VPI may be the more superior ... | |
| Need help making TV decision Reubent, I have subsequently read some reviews that corroborate your opinion. Too bad. | |
| Need help making TV decision November 2005 issue of Sound & Vision is the "HDTV Special", FWIW. | |
| Shunyata Hydra 4 vs PS Audio UPC 200 I just read the Hydra vs. UO comparison for which Brb9 provided a link in his post above, and the review confirms my opinion that these devices work differently from system to system, and the only way to make a determination for one's own system i... | |
| Need help making TV decision 40"- 42" = LCD or Plasma today. I suppose the subtext of my post was that there are new sets/technologies on the horizon that will address the flaws in current flat panel displays. Of course, if your time horizon is limited, then you pick from wha... | |
| Need help making TV decision CRT still provides the best picture. Samsung has a "slim fit" CRT set(TX-R3079WH) that is about a third shallower than traditional CRT sets. The downside is its 30" size. Other manufacturers, like LG for instance, are also working on slim CRT sets... |
