I currently have a Shunyata Alpha -HC power Cable powering my Audio Research REF75 SE amplifier. I also have a pair of Shunyata Black Mambas powering my 2 REL Subs. My REF6 preamp is connected using an older Cardas cable I had laying around (forget the name, but it was about a 400$ cable), and...
Hi Guys:
Wondering if anyone has any insight into my speaker problem. The right side of my 2 channel set up is playing at a much reduced volume level. When I unplugged the speaker cables at the speaker end and swapped it withe left side cable, the right side remained the quiet side. I think this...
I have what might appear to be silly question for you guys. When purchasing new tubes for my Ref75 SE, should these be purchased from Audio Research, or , from an online tube store? Are there any potential pit falls either way? Can I rely on good matched set if I don't buy from ARC? Also, can I...
Hoping to get some help here. I am not computer savvy in any sort of way. I can only barely make my system work for my immediate needs. I am now becoming increasingly frustrated trying to find downloads of specific music. I usually purchase music from Pro studio masters web site, but they don't...
Just built a new room 16'-2" x 21'. Moved my gear in and was so disappointed at the sound. Bass is non existent. Could it be that my ref 75 can't drive my Sonus Faber Elipsas? My old room had carpet and room treatment. Thanks.
I am currently in the process of designing/building a new home, and I have questions about whole house audio. In my old house I ran 6" B&W in ceiling speakers, powered by my pioneer elite SC37 home theater receiver. The source I used was shared with my HiFi (Bryston BDA1 and BDP1). This worked...
Anyone have a lot of success with power cables on their ARC gear. Currently I have a Cardas Golden power cable on my Ref 75 SE. Thanks in advance for any replies.
I have read some opinions that isolation devices are detrimental to ARC gear. Just wondering if my Ref 75Se would benefit from some form of vibration damping. I am interested to hear from anyone who has experimented with this, or anyone who has heard any other opinions about this.
I have been trying to find info on the VSI75 but not much out there. What are your impressions? Is it smarter to save up a few more pennies and go higher in the line up?
Anyone familiar with the Ars Sonum Filarmonia tube amp? This seems to be a little gem of an amp. If anyone owns or has experience with this amp,which interconnects and/or power cables have you had success with? Any other comments or opinions about this amp would also be of interest. Thanks.
Hi Guys:
I wasn't sure where to post this question so I decided on here. Do you guys think that the Pass Labs XA30.8 stereo amp is up to driving my most cherished Sonus Faber Elipsa speakers?
Thanks in advance for any responses.
I just stumbled upon this forum and must say I am really impressed with it. Seems many of you are as ocd about this hobby as I am :) This is my first post on this forum. I hope I don't bore you guys with this question, as you have probably answered many similar ones already, but here it goes:
