    I have a metal Tripp lite isobar unit for my computer desk and one for my stereo and television purchased ten years ago. When I read in the news the owner sold the company several years ago it made me wonder if the company and quality might change my next purchase was a unit made by APC

    Fosi Audio ZD3 Balanced DAC Review

    I picked up a package of four 1 inch rubber feet made by Everbilt that fit perfectly under my Fosi ZD3’s somewhat small feet. Screws not needed, just a spot of blue-tak putty Keeps the Fosi firmly in place and probably helps further isolate it from any vibration better than the stock feet. Under...

    Fosi Audio ZA3 Amplifier Review

    Maybe try contacting Fosi Audio about this to see what they say. It appears they listen to feedback from the community and might address issues in further production ? The JDS Labs Atom 2 amp I use has a really good potentiometer gain knob with excellent channel balance and operation. So, it is...

    Cambridge Soundworks Newton M80 standmount speakers

    The Public Library here has a 3D printing machine for patrons to use. Designing and printing out a concave plastic template with cutouts for the drivers and puttying them to the baffle front might be an improvement to the performance of these oldies but goodies

    Cambridge Soundworks Newton M80 standmount speakers

    You can see the baffle ridge edges of the M80 Speakers Steph is referring to in his post. Probably will try to get some felt stuck there on a curved stiff paper form, to at least round the sharp angles and provide a slightly smoother off ramp for sound waves Looking at some crossover pictures...

    Cambridge Soundworks Newton M80 standmount speakers

    Thank you for your reply and thoughts Steph, I appreciate the information about ferrofluid tweeters. Also I can confirm they are circa 20/years old and do have wide dispersion. And yes, the grille/cabinet edges are probably not helpful at all with diffraction. :rolleyes: Now just to find a...

    Cambridge Soundworks Newton M80 standmount speakers

    Hi ; I gave our daughter and son in law a pair of these when they came out quite a while ago and are getting them regifted back since they are moving and downsizing. Anyone have any experience with these speakers ? I think they were designed by Henry Kloss and originally built in Maine or...

    I just added the cut out layer of soft TP to my Beyers between the driver and circular felt, per the DIY hack suggested on the diyaudioheaven web page https://diyaudioheaven.wordpress.com/ A very effective and easy mod to cut the treble peak down my several db’s I had been using EQ but this...

    Headphone Recommendations for Magni+Modi stack.

    “I am sure there are better options around for the price or a little bit more but I just love the design” Bellari makes a similarly priced 4 band eq but it has some reported safety design issues, I also own the Topping D10 DAC but prefer the Modi 3E

    Headphone Recommendations for Magni+Modi stack.

    “I am planning to purchase Magni + Modi + Loki stack” For your budget this is an excellent option imho I own the same stack and have upgraded to the latest models of the Magni and Modi, the 3+ and 3E They are improvements on the earlier models The JDS Labs stack are a great option but their eq...

    Headphone Recommendations for Magni+Modi stack.

    Beyerdynamic DT 880 PRO 250 ohm model, or the non pro version if you listen for hours I also own the 770 PRO; 990 Edition and 880 600 ohm versions but feel the 880 PRO is the best all round balanced one of them after a lot of listening hours of each model I bought the exact same Schmidt Audio...

    NAD C 368 has high pitched tone at all times?

    My speakers are Seas with 94 db sensitivity and my Nad 316BEE V2 has some noise only if I put my ear next to the speaker and turn the amp up past 3/4 to maximum. Our former home had a separate electrical circuit for only my stereo, but not the house we just moved to. My Nad Amp remote stopped...

    Schiit Loki Mini+ Equalizer Review

    The knobs on the Loki that control the lowest and highest frequencies 40 and 8 are 12 db cut/boost and the middle two knobs are 6 db. I use minimal adjustments of 1 to 1.5db’s , the only exception is for my Beyerdynamic headphones to notch the spike out at 7 k where I cut 4 or 5db
