    new 45rpm direct-to-disc---Dvorak Symphony No.9---he who hesitates...

    I got number 0067 / 1893. Also, it seems that the LPs are 140 gm weight. The Accentus website verified that the discs are in fact 140gm not 180gm. https://accentus.com/a-message-concerning-our-from-the-new-world-vinyl-box-set-vinyl-weight/ Nevertheless, this is one fabulous performance and a...

    new 45rpm direct-to-disc---Dvorak Symphony No.9---he who hesitates...

    Wow. I guess I’m lucky. My copy is dead quiet. As we have stated, the performance is really top notch. Hrusa and Bamberger Symphony have formed a great pairing! Hope those of you who got less than perfect copies can get things resolved. I really am enjoying these 45rpm releases from...

    Recent Concerts You've Enjoyed

    I was at the Yuja Wang concert Tuesday night at Carnegie Hall too. My wife surprised me with a birthday present to have my birthday dinner at Sea Fire Grill, NYC (my favorite) and see Yuja Wang! We flew into NYC and stayed at the Royalton Park Ave South. It’s a long way from Carnegie Hall but...

    CH Precision with HRS SXR rack - query

    All, I’ve had this discussion with Mike Latvis, HRS. We don’t want the Vortex/Helix/Nimbus under the CH Precision feet. These devices should make contact with our chassis. Mike’s advice was to draw imaginary diagonal lines from the front feet to back. Place the Vortex/Helix/Nimbus just...

    CH Precision with HRS SXR rack - query

    All, my advice is the 10” struts since it gives you the flexibility to add chassis vibration components if you choose to do so and the air flow is better. If you measure the height of a CH Precision L1/L10/P1/C1/D1/X1/X10/T1 plus Vortex plus a damping plate (DPX-14545) you get 8”. You could...

    CH Precision with HRS SXR rack - query

    Yes. As long as the sub has a high impedance input, it will not be a problem. Several of our owners use REL subs that have high impedance inputs and connect to our amps similarly to what you are describing.

    CH Precision with HRS SXR rack - query

    Azjya, the struts on left and right are the 12" clearance height. The middle is 14" clearance for the M10. If you load our smaller components one at a time into a 12" clearance shelf, and intend to stack them, you have to be extremely careful. If you get help and can stack and then place the...

    CH Precision with HRS SXR rack - query

    Hi Azjya. I'm happy to offer insights into the procedure for setting our big amplifiers, A1.5s, M1.1s, M10s on to HRS racks / platforms. Usually the installation of our systems are done by our dealers who are familiar with the procedure I've described below. Furthermore, our components have a...

    CH Precision D1.5 sacd transport/player

    Hi Jeromelang. Yes, the D1.5 can be controlled using either the supplied remote or the CH Precision control app (D1 too). Our app does not show a track listing, however, one can directly choose a track to play using the control app. To do this, load a disc. The total number of tracks appears...

    CH Precision D1.5 sacd transport/player

    In the US market, there is a trade-in / trade-up program for D1 owners. Our dealers have the details. Check with the dealers in your geography for the exact details. I’ve now listened to the D1.5 in my system for about a week as a one-box player and as a transport connected a C1/T1/X1-D. As...

    CH Precision D1.5 sacd transport/player

    All, a few more details for you on our new D1.5. The MORSe consists of a heavy brass module, weighing almost 1 kg, on which the optical pick-up and disc drive motor are precisely assembled. This unusually high weight allows us to push the mechanical resonance frequency of the module several...
