I could not find your following post
"I should agree with you on the SR fuse. I used the black for two separated power
supply of Aesthetix Eclipse linestage. However, I wasn't aware of lower
tolerance on all audiophile fuses. I purchased exactly the same value stated in
the manual. As a...
Long ago when Lloyd Walker sent me my Walker turntable, he said try the fuse in the motor controller in the other direction. Dumbfounded I tried it. It made an amazing difference in the turntable?? Since then I have made a task to assess the impact of fuse direction. I have even tried it on...
I have only one fluorescent light in my room and never have it on while listening. Even with the TriPoint Troy Signature and High Fidelity Cables, I can immediately hear it, if it is on. But you should also know that I never heard any benefit from Entreqs.
Twice our house has been directly hit. One hit the water heater and wiped on the intercom, telephones, garage door opener, and blew a hole in the gas line to the water heater. The other wiped out a computer that was on a lightning barrier that failed to work.
We did live in Florida for eight...
One time when we were hit by lightning, I had an entire system on about six feet away from where it hit. I rushed to my listening room and found it was whole and still on. Everything was plugged into an AC conditioner from a guy in California but whose name I don't recall. I think what happened...
We have twice been hit by lightning that has taken out intercom systems, telephones, and blown a hole in a gas pipe to the water heater. I am really only worried about the expensive audio gear.
I deal with lightening safety by detaching the power and grounding systems from the wall.
I have found that shielded grounding in a star ground connection with more and more shielding greatly improves the realism. I suspect this is all EMI and RFI interferance not getting to the audio signal...
Yes, I have a friend who has repeatedly proven to me that internal grounding improvements rather than just using the chassis path to ground, make a big difference.
I know, however, that shielding grounding wires makes a great difference and that filtering in a star grounding scheme matters. I also suspect that the quality of the ground to Earth matters.
Tang, I live in Texas and there is no Tripoint or Dalby dealer anywhere near me or for that matter no audio dealers other than Best Buys near. Our shows are the only real way to hear products and even then side by side comparisons are typically impossible and in rooms that often harm the sound...
Spirit, I am not touting either cable although I have only heard what the various Tripoint grounds sound like. But I had heard what I quoted from Tang. I fully think that if one is in the market for this level of grounding cable one should seek to hear both. I had no idea that Tang liked the...
Bill, I have always had the same question as you about having three grounds on every unit-one through the AC ground, one through your interconnects, and then having a star ground through some sort of a grounding unit. I must say straight away that I tried the Granite Audio unit and heard no...
Tang, I'm sorry to be so late in my comments.
I now have six Thor SE grounding cable with three going to my digital. One to the music server and to its power supply and the third to my dac. One goes to the preamp and another to the amp. The final goes to my phono stage. Actually one of these...
