stupid SR cable ?, can I string ICs together??
I tried XLR to RCA adapters. I talked with Ayre first and they were iffy on the use... but said try it if I wanted. So I did... and the sound was so horribly bad and confused it sounded like gibberish almost. I quickly unhooked everything.So I cal... 
Ayre CX-7e vs. Bryston BCD-1
I'll assume that response was meant for me. Don't get me wrong.... I'm not saying there aren't players out there that sound better than Ayre's own when used with other Ayre components. I just haven't had the pleasure of listening to one yet. I did... 
Ayre CX-7e vs. Bryston BCD-1
Hgeifman,While I've never directly compared the two.. I too prefer the CX7. I will say there is definitely a system synergy with Ayre as well and it would be a better match for your AX7e than the bryston.

Synergistic Research active shielding question

There's one for sale here on AG but it's an older X2 model. Maybe check with the CableCo's used site. 
GAH demoing SR ICs and I can't decide
hmmm... so I did some reading.. and it seems that if you disturb the cables any, especially the reference series and up, it changes the sound and collapses the soundstage etc. I've been moving these in and out and tossing them around the room (not...

Buying Synergistic Research ICs so difficult
We figured out the problem. Their system was sending the emails to an old email address so I was never getting them. Now that we got that figured out I usually get a reply the same day. Cables will be here tomorrow!

Buying Synergistic Research ICs so difficult
Thanks guys!I called today and Paul from thecableco had already talked with Elliot earlier about my system. Elliot recommended Acoustic Reference at the source and Accelerator to the amp, or a dual run of Accelerator if the Acoustic was out of my ...
