| Acoustic Zen Matrix reference II IC This post gave me the feeling of deja vu. I owned the Acoustic Zen Silver Ref II before and it’s close to 2 decades already and it’s still the same cable being sold now. It has been so long that I’ve actually forgotten if I’ve used this cable befo... | |
| Anybody here upgrade from Chord Qutest DAC" Thanks txp1. That’s it. The Furutech will be the one. I’ve actually shortlisted the e-TP609 NCF earlier but am not sure about spending the money. Looks like it is about time to get one into the system since it’s not wise to skimp on the power stri... | |
| Furutech FI-50 NCF (R) vs FI-28 (R) Differences? Thanks for all responses. Surely useful ! | |
| 12 AWG Mains Power Cable From Wall To Power Conditioner Sufficient? Thanks for all responses. Surely useful. Yes audphile, there may be a possibility that the amp is connected to the power conditioner just to experiment if it will sound better going through it or directly to the wall outlet. The wall outlet will ... | |
| My Luxman Integrated has AC Inlet Envy @erik_squires there is no ground pin on the IEC inlet of my L-590AXII. Just two pins. Perhaps try a power cord which can stay firm inside the inlet of your L-507UX? There's no issue with my Acrolink cord staying put inside the inlet. | |
| Furutech FI-50 NCF (R) vs FI-28 (R) Differences? Thanks for that. I read the Audio Bacon review earlier but have missed the part about the FI-28. The review is mainly comparing the FI-50 NCF to the FI-46 NCF. Looks like it may not be wise to skimp on the plugs. At first I was thinking if the FI... | |
| Lumin U2 Mini Macdude, that's good to know. I recently bought the U2 mini but do not have experience with the U1 mini. It sounds great. I don't run a liner power supply with the U2 mini but am using a high quality power cord with it. | |
| My Luxman Integrated has AC Inlet Envy No issue with my Luxman L-590AXII. I have an Acrolink 7N-PC9700 mains cable connected to it. It's a tight and secure connection. | |
| 12 AWG Mains Power Cable From Wall To Power Conditioner Sufficient? Digsmithd, I was initially looking at the Furutech 3ts762 but was told that it’s a stiff cable with average sonic performance. The TCS31 was recommended instead as the 2nd best cable just below the DPS4.1. TCS31 combined with FI-50 NCF(R) is a kil... | |
| 12 AWG Mains Power Cable From Wall To Power Conditioner Sufficient? Thanks for the responses. Appreciated. | |
| Questions about Resolving Systems How do you know if you have a resolving system? If you can hear differences with cables (power cords, speakers cables and/or interconnects) and wall receptacles, then you have a resolving system. Now you know why some people can’t hear d... | |
| Furutech GTO-D2 NCF vs Audioquest Niagara 1200 vs Puritan PS-106 Thanks. I just spoke to the Furutech distributor and he informed the e-TP609 NCF is better than this GTO-D2 NCF. But the price is higher. Will see how it goes. Thanks. | |
| Anybody here upgrade from Chord Qutest DAC" txp1, may I ask what streamer did you end up with? I recently bought a Lumin U2 mini and so far the changes are mostly positive but there are some downsides which I suspect is more to the unit requiring break-in and a cheap power cable that’s curr... | |
| are older Naim integrated amps considered high current? In my book, only Supernait 2 or 3 is worth considering if going with Naim integrateds. The Nait XS is underpowered in most applications. For used prices, the Krell KAV-300i or KAV-400xi have much better current capabilities than the Nait XS and ... | |
| 8-10k budget suggestions please The comments about the combination of Krell + B&W being a match made in hell, I think it is more to the room and also the amp or speaker model. I used to have Krell KAV-300i driving B&W CDM 1SE back in the day, more than a decade ago and i... |
