Looking to take advantage of your spring sale and now I need patch cables from my Denon AVR.

I'm a fan and user of bluejeanscable.com too and I think you recommended their RCA->XLR adapter cables but they don't have specific orderable cables on their site.

Do you have a spec that I can use when ordering from them?
Canare RCA, 1800F, Neutrik XLR and what pin out?
(or even better, maybe stock some prebuilt on your site in common lengths)

Thanks

I have his amps and the RZ50 so use the Monoprice cables which he also recommended until they somehow messed up a batch with wiring issues. Don't know if they have this corrected but they are nicely built and so far been fine.

Email Blue Jeans and ask for RCA to XLR cables and give them the attached image for how to wire it

I have the 3 channel Purifi to power my Klipsch RF-7 III LCR's. The amp gain settings are shipped in 'Low'. I'm just wondering what the benefit/consequence is of each gain setting. My mentality is to set it on 'High'... is there a reason for me to use Low or Medium?

noise floor rises with higher gains, but it is so low on the Purifi module it's inconsequential.

Do you have any info on the smps being used for the 3 channel NCx500 amp?

Similar features/design but +/-84VDC and of course a lot higher wattage (2kW minimum).

I was sorry to see the new Buckeye 30 day return policy now charges a 10% fee when the customer is dissatisfied (but unit is not defective). I may wait for ASR reviews before future purchases to avoid measurement surprises. Sounds like returns became an issue.

Return Policy​

All amplifiers come with a 30 day return policy.
Returns due to non-defective reasons will incur a 10% restocking fee.

Given their pricing, this seems more than reasonable. It costs a manufacture/seller time and money to handle returns and the product if opened, cannot be sold as new and is then sold at a lower price. The manufacture/seller can either raise prices a little on everything, or charge a restocking fee. Charging a restocking fee also keeps the renters away (i.e. people who literally buy and return stuff within the return window as their standard practice).
