| Mating power cords with APL 3910 The Hydra conditioners also back filter in both directions as Davehrab describes above (although perhaps not in the same way...I don't know). This is explained on the Shunyata website under the description of the Venom filters. | |
| Mating power cords with APL 3910 Howard, whatever works is what's important. I played with 5Bs, 3Bs, 7As ,7Bs and massive marching sticks the size of which I can't recall. Maybe my adaptability to several stick sizes was an early indication to make my living in another profession... | |
| Mating power cords with APL 3910 John, I asked about the source of the Hydra info because conjecture runs rampant on the web. If you come across a bona fide review that mentions the current limiting issue, please let me know. I'm fairly certain the non current limiting aspect of ... | |
| What can you tell me about First Sound pre-amps? Artg, when do you take delivery of that fancy 4 box First Sound preamp? | |
| Mating power cords with APL 3910 Yikes. All this from a power cord? Apparantly, I've been concentrating on the wrong parts of my sysem. :) | |
| What can you tell me about First Sound pre-amps? Mphnkns, I'm going to play Devil's Advocate here...and I'm also going to don my full Nomex suit in anticipation of the flames.Have you ruled out, or can you rule out, that the First Sound Presence Deluxe II is not to blame for the glare you hear, ... | |
| What can you tell me about First Sound pre-amps? +4 = 17.Emmanuel has more options than BMW! | |
| Full range floor standing speaker???? 4K or so Based on your room size, placement criteria and music preference, you might be a perfect candidate for monitors. I think you may have some real issues with floorstanders only 12" from the rear wall, whereas many monitors can benefit with this plac... | |
| What can you tell me about First Sound pre-amps? Last year, I received a First Sound U.S. Price List, 2004 Model Year directly from Emmanuel Go. The product sheet lists seven preamps: Presence Deluxe II, Presence Deluxe 4.0 MkII, Presence Deluxe 4.0 MkII with Paramount Upgrade, Paramount MkII, P... | |
| Mating power cords with APL 3910 I can't comment on the Hydra 4 vs. Hydra 8 since I've never heard the Hydra 8, although I have to say I've never read anywhere that any Hydra product is current limiting. Can you provide a link or reference to something you read?I have all my comp... | |
| Mating power cords with APL 3910 Ozzy, thanks for your candor regarding the upper midrange glare. I experienced the same thing during break-in. It's important to share these idiosyncrasies so new users know what to expect, and don't start changing things...like power cords...too ... | |

| Mating power cords with APL 3910 I'm using a Michael Wolff Source cord with excellent results (they're now available at half price while they last). I also tried a TG Audio 688, which was very good, too. The Wolff Source cord provided a "smoother" texture to the sound...less edge... | |
| How do you deal with vibration? Jadem6, thanks for your detailed observation and explanation. What I can't wrap my head around is how the Aurios can somehow eliminate vibration/movement that is created within the speaker itself by the drivers. I believe Aurios were invented to i... | |
| "Commercial" plasma screens the real deal for HT? How does black burn pixels? That doesn't make an ounce of common sense. However, if you watched strictly letterboxed movies on a 4:3 screen, so that the top and bottom of the screen were always black, then I suppose you could have a situation in w... |
