    Shunyata Grounding System

    It wasn’t to me either which is why I A/B/A’d my DAC on both hubs. There was quite a big improvement when it was grounded on the “digital” ALTAIRA Signal hub, along with my other master clock, switch etc.

    Without going into too much detail I had my first experience with ALTAIRA before what was supposed to be the Ascot show, sadly cancelled at the last minute. Myself and Brandon Lauer (now with Audio Research) spent two evenings experimenting with a range of configurations starting with the...

    A few updates re our participation at Ascot… The Long Box (242-244) will feature a Brinkmann Taurus + 12.1 inch tone arm and Lyra cartridge (prob not the top of the range but a decent one!).

We (Boyer Audio) have booked 2 rooms at the show: the Long Box on the 2nd floor and a hospitality suite...

    Absolutely not! The event was a success. I wrote a short report here: https://www.boyeraudio.com/news/engstromkj Apologies to all for the radio silence it’s been a very hectic few weeks and I haven’t had much of a chance to come on here. Cheers, Guillaume

    Who’s up for a $2800 fuse?

    Hi Barry, I’ve been experimenting with them in my system, so far only tried the 13A mains plug fuses but have also got some internal fuses on the way. To my ears the Light Blue easily beat the SR Orange and was a very decent upgrade. Then the Yellow took things up a notch or two especially in...
