| Pure®Harmony RCA Plug Yping - cat5 will work nicely, but braid them - do not twist them.Braiding is easy and ensures the conductors are never parallel to each other - parallel conductors causes all sorts of issues.Using solid silver conductors will be the most dynamic.... | |
| Pure®Harmony RCA Plug Those worth mentioning - I've made them from Van den Hul D102 mkIII and DH Labs BL-1 bulk cable. none of those compare to the Stagers as purchasedThe original Stagers with Canare RCA are good, but I thought they could be better - so I first added ... | |
| Pure®Harmony RCA Plug Yping - I am into making my own IC's, but the Stagers + PH are significantly better than my Van den Hul D102 mkIII + Furutech RCA's that I have.By "significantly" I mean the difference between night and day - the VDH performed to a much lower leve... | |
| Essence®gZero6 Interconnect cables yping - I have heard them up against some expensive Kimber XLR IC's and the gzero6's were more detailed and dynamic with a deeper bass response and more expansive imageMy own Stager Silver solids with the KLEI Pure Harmony RCA's were not quite as ... | |
| Simaudio MOON LP5.3 RS or 300LP? Roscoeiii - I'm using single ended Essence gZero6 IC's from KLE Innovations - these are exceptional performers on any gear.Regards | |
| Simaudio MOON LP5.3 RS or 300LP? Pure Harmony - there's a reason why these RCA's are called that!I upgraded the Silver Harmony RCA's to the Pure Harmony RCA's on my Stager Silver Solids IC's used to connect the LP5.3 RS to the amp...- Wider deeper image- faster dynamics- more det... | |

| Recommend a SPDIF cable I've used Van den Hul "The Name" normally sold as an interconnect, but also recommended as a good digital interconnect by vdh.It appears to have 75 ohm rca's as well - so no issues thereRegards | |
| Upgrading interconnects Well - I'm currently running the KLE Innovations Essence gZero6 IC's and find they extremely good on both the DAC and analogue sideDynamic, articulate spacious and very detailed.For a little less there is the Essence gZero3 - which I've also tried... | |
| DAC woes - what to do Second the Schiit - Gungnir will give you balanced outputs if requiredPut on some great cables - hard to beat for the money I have the Bifrost - superb performer!Articulate, dynamic, spacious with a very tight and deep bassRegards | |
| REVIEW: Schiit Bifrost DAC Well a couple of posts ago I stated that I thought I'd squeezed about every ounce of performance out of this excellent DACI WAS WRONG!!!Since that post I've again upgrade IC's, SC's and PC's and this little DAC stepped up to the plate and hit it o... | |
| Upgrade your RCA's Lacee - you are not wrong - the connector can achieve very discernible improvements based on my own experience with the KLE Innovations Harmony RCA line of connectorsBut I didn't stop there - I removed the two conductors from within my DH Labs BL-... | |
| Stager Silver Solid interconnects Well, I've just finished installing a set of Pure Harmony RCA's from KLE Innovations on the Stagers and they are extremely good.The combination is dynamic, spacious with pinpoint imaging and clarity is the best I've ever had it.Bass is the deepest... | |
| Stager Silver Solid interconnects Tonytan - try changing the RCA's to a better quality RCAI started by upgrading to Eichmann Silver Bullet - the improvement was considerable.Then Keith Louis Eichmann asked me to try his new range of RCA plugs - they worked even better than the Sil... | |
