| Power Conditioners Hi ecrottyYour question is a very sensitive one and if you play your cards right you can be ahead of the game. I happen to have the Furman that you are considering. I also have a Zerosurge ten outlet power surge protector and a Synergistic Researc... | |
| What is to become of Marantz Reference and HIFI as we know it I am sad to hear of KI passing. I have a reference series streamer/DAC, the NA11S1 that I think is very well put together and that sounds great to boot. That’s one of KI brain child. RIP. | |
| Which is better for a DBA (Swarm); powered subs or unpowered? You probably would be better off with powered subs IMHO. The second hand market is a good place to start. You can get a used Martin Logan Grotto i for less than $500 on EBay. If one amp goes bad in a powered Swarm, you don’t have to shut down the ... | |
| The bass is the place... Millercarbon and Atmasphere said it all much more eloquently than I could. I will only add that getting the bass right is about 30% of the speaker conquest according to dr Toole. Also it’s not very easy even with four subs. One still has to put in... | |
| Need help in trying to trace cause of distortion Hi rvpiano it’s not a simple problem but if you do as someone else suggested, by elimination, you will be successful. My guess is similar to yours, I think it’s the speaker. Luckily, this one is the easiest to eliminate. Check to see if it does it... | |
| New Tweak --- Its Fantastic Hi snackeyp You might be going about it the wrong way. You need to have a strategy. If later you decide to do inside your components you would need to redo the power cords and interconnects again. The reason for that is that the TC need time ... | |
| New Tweak --- Its Fantastic Ok. I will look into that but we need to find a way to communicate without taking this thread hostage. I will try to PM you again. Stay tuned. | |
| New Tweak --- Its Fantastic Andera I sent you a PM two days ago. What’s up? | |
| Mmmm Crow tastes good... Hi gochurchgofor the problem you are having about getting better bass standing up, try putting the sub on a chair and see if that solves the problem. If it does, then you need a stand for that sub. Good luck and welcome to the club. | |
| New Omega E Mat from Perfect Path Technologies Thanks friends. I appreciate the answers. | |
| New Omega E Mat from Perfect Path Technologies Can someone familiar with Total Contact answer this question for me: can one bottle cover an entire system consisting of 10 components? Thanks in advance. | |
| Doug Schroeder Method, Double ic Hi DougI forgot to thank you for your philanthropy as most likely you are not profiting from your advice and findings to our community. Some people have made a fortune for far less contribution.I have always used the Mogami ICs with great results... | |
| Doug Schroeder Method, Double ic I have read most posts on this thread and can confirm that the Doug Schroeder Method works well with my class D amp: Nuprime ST-10 modified by Bob Smith. I also have double DS Method ICs between my DAC, Marantz NA11S1 and my pre-pro, Marantz AV880... | |
| Falling out of love for my Gallo Strada 2’s (long) If you haven't heard them yet, I would recommend a pair of Audience 1+1 V3's. I am quite happy with mine and they have a small footprint like the Gallo's. I have them on stands. I also use four ML subs to supplement the bass and like you I have... | |
| What is your favorite High EFF speaker Hi BlindjimLike everything else in life, it’s always more complicated than it seems. High efficiency is only half of the equation when it comes to selecting an amp in terms of wattage for a speaker. The speaker impedance might fall rather low (3 o... |
