| EtherREGEN or LHY SW-6? Anyone compare the 2? Thoughts/opinions? And those who were holding out for the Ethergen Model 2, it is not coming. And the original model is out of production so either a used Ethergen will have to do, or buy something else. Not sure why the Model 2 never materialized but it did not and... | |
| Synergistic Research UEF Ethernet Switch Yep, and all violins sound the same because after all, wood is wood, horsehair is horsehair so why go pay all that money for a Strad? I am sure those are a rip -off too. Have you even listened to one of these before you commented or did you just ... | |
| Will upgrading Umbilical cord power supply to preamp improve sonics This is an old thread but if someone comes across this like I did, be very,very careful about dealing with Revelation Audio. They took my money over 40 days ago and I cannot get them to answer emails, return phone calls etc. This is not uncommon f... | |
| Revelation Audio Labs (RAL) - Buyers Beware! I am surprised that people actually got items from Brad. At all. I "bought" an umbilical from him and paid him. At first I received all the emails needed to complete the transaction. Then nothing. I have sent him numerous emails as well as calling... | |
| Short Review of Revelation Audio Passage Cryo-Silver™ Reference umbilical power cable Well, I am back to the topic that was mentioned early on and that is customer service. I ordered a cable from Brad, paid for it, and now I hear nothing from him at all. Several emails have gone unanswered as well as phone calls. I have received a ... | |
| Esoteric Master Clock fripp1, Did you ever get a clock? I am looking at maybe getting a g-02 to use with my K-03x and I like the idea of Esoteric with Esoteric as I imagine there would be a better "mating" of signals etc. Some folks I know have not had luck with other... | |
| Service question: Who can service an Esoteric UX-1 CD/SACD player modified by APL NWO 3.0? I know that this is a reply to an old thread but as the owner of two Esoteric units, one of which was repaired by TAP, as long the unit is all original and they have the parts, they will repair anything Esoteric, even if you are not the original o... | |
| Backert Labs Rhumba 1.3 vs Extreme Having recently listened to and have since ordered a Backert Labs 1.4, my experiences with the LTA compared to the Backert Labs preamp is much different than those listed about. And that is both the nice thing but also crazy thing about audio. And... | |
| Denefrips Pontus "burn in" period? I actually have to wonder about the 100 hours of break-in from the factory and here is why: I ordered an Ares 15 and from the time of the order to the time it was at my front door was six days....six days. Now either Denafrips has a fair amount o... | |
| Impressions of the Re-issued Genalex Gold Lion U77/GZ34 Rectifier Tube I know that this is an old post but in case someone still reads it (like me) I have to ask this: cyro freezes everything in the tube and then comes back to a normal temperature. So then the tube goes into its circuit and gets heated. So can someon... | |
| Rogue audio RP-7 versus PS Audio BHK preamplifier Ugh. It should read "a hint at what the PREAMP should sound like", not "hint at what the tube should sound like". Sorry... | |
| Rogue audio RP-7 versus PS Audio BHK preamplifier I would be a little concerned that one would have to buy NOS tubes to get a $5K preamp to sound its best. Even with stock tubes there should be a hint at what the tube should sound like without NOS tubes as it was with the stock tubes the preamp w... | |
| Townshend Audio F1 Fractal Interconnects - Less is More! And these were compared against what other brands / makes that are available in the USA perhaps? I did not see any mention of a comparison or what other cables you have tried / used. Perhaps I missed it in the review somewhere... | |
| What CD player/transport has the most stable mechanism? Ugh - fat fingers....SACD, not "SCAD"... | |
| What CD player/transport has the most stable mechanism? This is an old thread I know but if anyone still is looking, Esoteric supports all their SCAD / CDPs no matter the age. This is done through TAP Electronics in California. Try getting that with Sony and all the others mentioned... |
