| Best Cheap Speakers - New or Old I picked up a pair of NHT classic 3's and they are really nice for 500 off a'gon | |
| Amp or Preamp Upgrade for Totem Arro's My experience with the Arros would suggest that they always like lots of good clean current. You will be very surprised with the amount of bass energy these speakers will put out. I never had real good luck with integrating a sub into the mix with... | |
| Moderately priced jitter reduction devices I use a squeezebox into an Audio Alchemy DDE Pro 32 then into a TADAC and this works great. I think the AA piece added focus to my system. There is I think a couple of the AA pieces for sale on A'G right now. | |
| Upgrade the Squeebox or get a Transporter? You have a tough question to answer. If I had never yet invested in any of this, I would probably give the Transporter a hard look. But I have the Red Wine Audio full modded sb2 and a TAD DAC so I am very happy. From what I have read, the modded s... | |
| Power conditioner or not? Get yourself a PS audio Duet or Quintet and you will have all the conditioning you need with no restriction on current. | |
| Help me choose which speakers to buy This might sound crazy, but Paul at bizzybee has been selling the TAD 805sd single driver speaker for 169. I had to bite for that price and I have to say I am impressed. I have it paired with an Onix sp3 and they sound very nice especially after b... | |

| PC connect to audiophyle system I have been using a Red Wine Audio modded SB2 for about 3 years and streaming it wirelessly with no issues. If you rip cd's to a lossless format, it is impossible for me to tell the difference between it and a Musical Fidelity cd player I used to ... | |
| Audio Alchemy OM 150 hum. What is the cause? I would call it a buzz | |
| Audio Alchemy OM 150 hum. What is the cause? I have tried the cheater on both the amp and preamp. I haven't changed ic's yet. The hum is much higher than a 60 cycle hum. More into the midrange. | |
| Apple TV vs. Mini vs, Sonos I use a modified Squeezebox 2 to outboard dac. This device has access to every audio service that I can think of. | |
| Amp Basics: Tube Preamp w/Solid State Power Amp. If you don't want to worry about matching impedence, you should look for a little device callled a Burson buffer. It would make the output impedence of your preamp look more compatible with say a low input impedence ss amp. Pretty cool.You can goo... | |
| Anyone compare Boulder Modified SB and Transporter You will be pleasantly surprised...You also need to upgrade power supply to fully realize the potential in the sb...I would be looking at the Channel Island PS for the SB. IT really looks good and is priced very reasonably. I also use a TAD tube D... |
