| VAC Signature Mk IIa Preamplifier with phono? Yes, well worth the investment - Kevin is a huge analog fan and builds great phono stages. i have owned several preamps of his and enjoyed the phono stage. you will eliminate cost of cables and have better resale too. | |
| Ted Denney, and Synergistic Research's Powercell Agree with the positive assessments of the Powercell. And it does not limit current. Made a very nice improvement in my system. Would also recommend the tesla se outlet which comes with the Mark II powercell. Curious to try the Tranquility bases... | |
| Synergistic New Tesla Line...Any comments? Patent pending is pretty darn common..and it can take YEARS to get through the patent office...and $10k is CHEAP, as it can take WAYYY more than that to get your patent issued...and then there is the cost of protecting it, updating it, etc..- I kn... | |
| Synergistic New Tesla Line...Any comments? It's the electronic field similar to the cells supposedly. The Base over the BASIK has additional grounding schemes, again, reportedly...I am sure we will learn more as the units get into the marketplace... | |
| Synergistic New Tesla Line...Any comments? Not sure - I have the equipment on a nice rack now. So, I guess I will compare the base on the rack vs. no base and just the rack. I am using sistrum stands to very nice effect. | |
| Synergistic New Tesla Line...Any comments? Anybody tested a tranquility base yet? | |
| Any issues with Money Back Guarantees offered? This is just a plain bad way to do business imo. especially with a power cord! restocking fee? What change the bag? Wipe down the cord and sell it to the next guy? come on...plus no meniton of duty or paypal fee? just be glad it wasn't the more ex... | |
| Synergistic New Tesla Line...Any comments? I am going to try one as well when they become availalbe. I think I am going to try the Basik and see how it does....as you can get 2 basiks for the price of 1 Base - so...not sure if you are better off with 2 basik under 2 pieces of gear or 1 bas... | |
| Synergistic New Tesla Line...Any comments? An audiophile friend heard it at CES and thought it was excellent and really made a nice improvement. you place it under components, so you can use it with the powercell. And my guess is you can power it with a galileo mpc if you would like. I am ... | |
| Review: LESSLOSS DFPC Signature Power cord Yes, my reaction as well....almost...they robbed the leading edge as stated and do round off the extension...extension was livable. leading edge no. after a while found them uninvolving as a result. music without the leading edge does not work for... | |
| Preamp upgrade - Shindo or VAC? The designer of the pre amp typically designs the pre amp around his own amp and vice versa.....so if you own a vac amp I would lean toward the vac...Plus Kevin makes great stuff and has been around high end a long time and will be there for you... | |
| Synergistic New Tesla Line...Any comments? Galileo mpc with the power cell for sure, but with the speaker cell.....hmmmm, Galileo was warmer, tesla more detail, perhaps brighter in presentation. On some recordings I liked the tesla others the Galileo. There was not such a clear winner here... | |
| Synergistic New Tesla Line...Any comments? Yes, preferred existing cables, prana wire with speaker cells over the basik cables with the speaker cells attached. The speaker cells were really good and a nice improvement over the straight prana wire. I would recommend these highly. Was really... | |
| Detail Magnifiers by Econotweek Ozzy, did you go with the upgraded connectors or the cry treatment? Curious, thanks | |
| Review: VAC Phi Beta 110i As a long time owner of the phi 110 I agree with your assessment. Excellent phono stage btw. VAC stands behind there product as well. I would encourage fellow audio goners to keep VAC on their short list. |
