| Glass v.s. Plastic Toslink Hi chrisr, Your conclusions are opposite most everything I've read. Glass optical cables came from the medical field. The company I chose, Silfatec, does mainly medical. I have tried a few plastic, even one more expensive from Chord, and they seem... | |
| Shunyata Triton It's specially designed for the Triton and Talos. As for price? Fits in with Shunyatas non-gouge policy... Also check out the new Zitron Cobra power cord. For $995 it's a steal. | |
| Shunyata Triton It is "the" one to use. And it's less money! Specially made for the power distributions, like the Triton.And even adding an extra M is affordable.You did well! Now get the proper cord. | |
| Is good customer service about dead? No, but good customers are dying off... | |
| What's next after Dynavector 20XL? If you're having mistracking issues then probably upgrade your arm or table. | |
| Shunyata Triton Good job, nice report. Always plug Triton directly to wall, and you should get a c19 VTX Hydra cord. Then you can daisy chain off of the triton if you need to. | |
| Is Ortofon "Salsa MC better than Dynavector 10X5? Agreed. Ortofon will not give you what you want here.Sounds like your 10x5 could be dirty. Use a good stylus cleaner. The Regas and Dynavectors are perfect matches. You might also try a different phono stage. | |
| Valve amps for Shahinian Obelisk ? Not really. I've read where some have tried Blue Circle.That's all I've heard about. Does it have to be tube? What about SS amp and tube pre. | |
| Audio Research ARC Ref 5 versions? It is indeed. Contact ARC. | |
| Audio Research ARC Ref 5 versions? Good to hear, Mike. I was sure hoping so. Now with the LS 27 and newer ref5 se, ARC preamps are again at the top of the heap. Have fun! | |
| Audio Research ARC Ref 5 versions? I hope the new version is much better. Musically the LS27 bettered the ref 5, which I've never wanted to post til they either improved or deleted the 5. Good to hear it's a winner. | |
| Harbeth 7es2 vs Harbeth 7es3 Agree with Nolitan. However, if you love your present gear and stands, and the 7's are working great in your present room, I could easily see trading up to the 7-3's... The increase in clarity, bass extension and tightness would definitely pay for... | |
| best cd player to get?? Easy. Naim Cd5i. Slaughters anything in that price range. | |
| Audio Research, next upgrade? Not if he got rid of that dog and had a ls27 instead. It would surprise all of you.Of course vinyl always rules, but he may not be into it...yet..:) | |
| Audio Research, next upgrade? Change up the preamp line. |
