    Antipodes K50 set up help

    Hi guys I've got a demo K50 coming over next week, I'm just looking for a bit of advice on set up. I am not in the slightest bit technically minded, so please speak to me as if I'm the most stupid man on the planet ;) I'll be using it as a player only by copying my music onto the internal...

    Hi Iam I plugged it into a spare socket in the wall. I liked what it did initially, but once I added a couple of Poseidons I found it detracted so I sold it. Hope that helps….

    Home Dac test - Legacy Boulder VS Bartok VS Bel Canto E1X

    It’s been around 6 years since I’ve had itchy feet re my DAC’s performance against newer models. The last time I tried MBS, TotalDac, antelope and Bricasti among a few others. Back then I found that Dac quality at similar price points was more alike than different, tending to offer a slightly...

    Triangle Speakers from France. Emotional Experience (vs. Cerebral Accuracy). Any fans?

    I’ve owned the range right up to the Quators. My favourite box speakers by a mile, strengths being superb fast bass, and emotion that you just don’t get from other speakers.I’ve had Revel Salon 2’s, B&W 800D2’s and various Wilson’s, and none could touch the Triangles. Two things to bear in mind...

    Entreq Tellus grounding

    Hi everyone I'm looking for a little advice after recently dipping my toes into the Entreq water.....I have a really good dealer, but I don't want to be bothering all the time. 1. I started off just trying a Primer Pro power cable on my power conditioner - very impressed. 2. Got my hands on a...

    Compression drive units - some advice needed

    Hi guys My speakers use Viavox S5’s which are turning 30 this year. Just wondering what’s the story with maintenance/servicing? I’ve read that the magnets need re-magnetised etc. Does the charge just naturally dissipate over time and does this affect the units SQ? Are there any other parts that...

    Hard wiring speaker cables to cross-overs - any real sonic benefits?

    Thanks Cal My cross overs are in a separate compartment away from any driver enclosure, so that’s not a problem. Though I would get some kind of rubber bung to keep the wire in place and affix the cable up the cabinet so there isn’t any weight pulling on the wire too.... Did you note much...

    Hard wiring speaker cables to cross-overs - any real sonic benefits?

    Im looking for a bit of advice Some of my spades and banana plugs are getting a bit ropey and due a change. But my x-over is really easy to access, so I am if just soldering the speaker cable directly to the x-over wires would be better, or do you foresee any problems? Surely removing plugs and...

    JCAT USB XE or Pink Faun Ultra OCXO?

    Just a quick update..... I received the JCAT XE a couple of days ago. Right off the bat it is stunning. A very large improvement over the standard JCAT card that I’ve had for c.5 years, which in itself was a massive step up from the built in souncard. I dropped Marcin a quick PM to offer my...

    Sean Jacobs DC3 power supply in da house

    After reading Fourlegs review of the Sean's DC4 power supply, I thought I'd take the plunge and replace my (ageing) Longdog/MCRU power supply, which was £850 c.10 years ago...perhaps £1200 in todays money? The Longdog/MCRU was custom made for my server, to replace the switched mode power supply...
