I have a pair of JBL L5s in excellent condition for sale at $500 for the pair, buyer pays shipping. The speakers are three way with four drivers, and 8", 6.5", 5", and a 1" titanium dome. They are excellent audiophile speakers that FAR SURPASS todays SS line. The speakers I have for sale...
The unit does indeed look just like the BPT 2.5 unit, I believe the primary difference being the unit contains a medical grade isolation transformer from Plitron of higher capacity than the balanced power models. The unit is of very high quality construction through and through.
I have a custom made Alan Maher isolation conditioner, featuring a Plitron isolation transformer unit rated at 3.0 kva (30amp), eight hospital grade Hubbel recepticles, and paired with the Alan Maher 20amp 1Meter Silver Snake Power Cord. Unit is brand new, I paid $1000, asking $750 OBO. Football...
The Brick Wall units are considered by many (including myself) to be about the best surge protection available.

For an all-in-one unit with power conditioning and surge protection, The Power Director from PS Audio looks like a very capabile unit ($1495)
the 89259 is the one evangilized over at Audio Asylum. In my experience it makes an excellent subwoofer cable but somewhat less satisfying as a full rance ic
I know it sounds spooky but why is it that most people will accept a 12ga speaker wire is a good thing, but then on the front end they have all speakers being powered from an amp with 16ga power cord. It's all electricity.
Ron, I am not an EE either and I agree with your point. Although, sometimes the EEs are so grounded in their theories / education / brainwashing as to not be able to acknowledge the obvious if using just ones ears. But I agree at this point it seems I probably have gotten most of my bang for the...
Things can vary from system to system but, on my system all I can say is that the power cord upgrades have made an incredible difference. Prior to the upgrades, on demanding music (very fast attacking type bursts) something in the system was causing some distortion. The distortion was most...
I am not sure of how the Sherbourn will match with your equipment but my 1500A is an excellent performer. One tip, though - this amp will benefit greatly from an upgraded, heavy gauge power cord. The power cord can be DYI.
I have been enjoying a number of SACDs since acquiring my 555es a month or so ago, and generally consider the SACDs better than redbook in quality. Although, some of the better recorded CDs I think one may be hard-pressed to tell the difference.
At any rate, my main issue thus far is nothing...
This amp would make an excellent upgrade from reciever power, which is what I originally used it for. Its power rating is very conservative in my opinion. It has not been driven hard and is in almost new condition. I am asking $575 shipped.
p.s. this is a 5 channels amp at 110w/channel
Yes sorry to rub it in but the Jeff Beck SACD I have is MC. I think it is a pretty good mix, too but something you might want to be aware of is much of the guitar is shifted to the right rear surround so you just need to have your room setup well, level and tone balanced, which is something I am...
Like you, I do not have many SACDs yet because I am not familiar with most of the titles, and I have already wasted some money trying some things I was not familiar with. However, I did get lucky with Jeff Beck "Blow by Blow" in MC. Highly recommended.
At this point I am planning on staying with my current setup. I had been thinking of swapping down, so to speak, as I could have made some good money selling my old stuff on eBay, and come out ahead based on what you can get the SSIIs for on the net. And the S36s would have been convenient as...
After hearing so many good things, I brought home a pair of these from BB to test drive. I wanted to see how the sound from these speakers compared to my JBL L5s. This is not an apples to apples comparison by any means, as the L5s are tower speakers with four drivers and listed for about $500...
2.36 was available on the net at-
http://63.97.204.237/rp91-236-iso.zip
however I am not aware of 2.5 being available
basically you download the file, burn it to a CD, and then play the CD in your rp91
I have the TAP, and use it to switch between SACD and DVD players, as well as TV on the stereo input. I concur this is a great piece, totally transparent, although I do experience the warm-up hum issue, which lasts a few minutes when you turn the unit on. The easiest solution is to just leave...
