Guys, do you shield your dedicated powe lines?I'd have around 9m of a cable unning in the air from the apartment's power distibution box to therack. For me it looks like a nice antena for picking EMI/RFI trashfrom the air. Such shielding indirectly s...

Adrian, can you confirm whether you were using cable with shielding or without? Like you I had the buzzing go away when on battery or without PP2000 in system. It became dead silent. Then with PP2000 back in system there was buzzing. I went to all sh...

Not specs, but sound. To that end, like I've been saying, pure copper or pure silver, no plating. There is also a cable thread.Best regards,Paul S...

Unless they process it somehow (cry?). I was going to order copper bus bars from a machinist friend but I realized copper as it is is way too soft for reliable screwed cable connections.M4 or M5 screws hosted in copper will not stand much torque and ...

Looks like I've found a solution but I don't understand it:
1) Lifting the phono ground from the PP with a cheater plug and connecting the phono case to the SAME PP ground with a separate cable not only does not bri...

The oversized Obbligato caps are installed and everything is looks like it will be when it will be done. I just need to in use some good 5-pin chasses-mount and on-cable-mount connectors abled to care over 3A that will bring filaments to the amp from...

I think considering carbon cables for limited frequency range is not a bad idea.van den hul have some carbon cables, they never improved their carbon cable but current models in my idea have a good sound.carbon have some restriction but in a proper c...

I think Utopia is alittle soft with less sharpness than wilson , I have no idea but maybe one of the reasons is internal wiring of utopia.personally i prefer wilson but in this level of difference maybe choosing right cable and upstream help compensa...

Hi Alex,Short of waving goodbye to the Bidat for a few months, you could always TRY the splitter idea from your favorite cable guy. It may be acceptable enough for your needs.Did you mean there is no space on the back of your passive/relay base...

I thought of filling with sand braided multifilament nylon cable sleeving (http://cableorganizer.com/nylon-multifilament/) which comes in 2 inch diameter and does not expand enough to allow coarse sand to come out. It can be wrapped around as densely...

Trying to gather and get my thoughts in order, in order to share them, I just remembered a recent mod that John Wright happened to mention specifically. While I believe John regards - and guards - as proprietary his ideas for reworking this gear, I a...

What kind antenna you use: 300R or 75R? What the Sansui’s antenna jack you use? I presume that your “small car antenna” uses 75R coax cable and your use the75Ohm Sansui’s input? ...

In continuation to the "A new round of Pacific’s DAC listening" post.... I have a number of revisions of this little contest between two DACs in this thread and in other threads. In all of them the Lavry 924 has a little edge over Pacific Microso...

[quote user="Romy the Cat"]I got my last PP2000, after the repair was done. My second new unit works since I got it repaired; it runs the whole playback, sounding very well and my attempts to add a second PP2000 led, as I described to worsening o...

Today’s prices in Hi-Fi do not base upon any other principle then “whatever market bears”. The luck of objective evaluation methods and the completely un-liberated market of Hi-Fi consumers make the “market bearing” principles being completely not ap...

With near 1R impedance I
presume you will have multiple bass drivers paralleled. That is perfectly
legitimate way to operate but there are a few things you might consider. The mistakes at 1R are more effective then at high impedance.
If you have...

Hi Mats:
Thanks for the update. I find the Lavry DA-11 to be an interesting unit, not because of all the "features" but because of Mr Lavry's long history producing serous DACs and the consumer-friendly pricing. I do wish that Mr Lavry did...

Romy, I'm not sure we're talking about the same thing.
In your current setup, you are using the internal Lynx wordclock. In this case, the Lynx may well 'shut down' the external BNC wordclock cable. But that's not what I'm concerned with.
W...

Last week I had a date with my Psychotherapist (every serious Audiophile needs one when he is above 40 and Al - his name is Al Right - charges only 165$/h, he is an Audiophile and a good guy. In his waiting room I met my old buddy De - his name i...

Hm, ended, I have learned something. I did use fat wired

still have them. I did not think about i...

Guy,I absolutely disagree and I think there is a huge difference between lettings your wife to know that skin in her neck remind you sesame chicken and letting a play director know that his new production stinks. Of course we moderate our behavior in...

[quote user="Romy"] I see a problem. Sine you have 8 meters interconnects I presume that it a relatively large room with speakers positioned relatively far. This way your common remote control will drive two Placette passive units located a few meter...
