Re: which CJ amp to go with ET5 ?
Thanks for reply Big ...RJ, I appreciate your response. The reason I asked is , the people who know a lot about these products ( read dealer and CJ itself) have vested interest and strongly suggested to upgrade my AMP. So I have to rely on fellow CJ owners who have first hand experience with these m...

Re: Greetings from San Jose CA
EH sounding has extended high range to extent of being harsh.
Amperex 6922 is perfect to my taste ( much more musical).
HD3 is detailed but still maintains analog like sound. I haven't compared it to high end DAC.
Thanks

Re: Subwoofer
Using SB 13 ultra with focal Electra 1027 BE ( stereo setup) for a month now. It is fast and loud enough to catch up with my highly efficient speakers. It adds a different dimension to music, Incredible. It took about 20 hours of playing time to break in and after that , it opened to completely diff...

Re: Subwoofer
Thanks guys for the reply.
Jasper, I agree with you on getting a pair of subwoofer. It is not just the cost but space is an issue as well.
I will update the thread whichever I go.
Thanks again

Separation between instruments have increase greatly and vocals sound better. I also plan to try primacoustic recoil next week and will have...

Re: Recommendations on speaker feet
I am looking for speaker plinth ( for isolation) for my Focal Electra 1027 BE on suspended wooden floor. I was considering "Mapshade heavy feet" with 12x15 Speaker Plinth with 4" thick base. It is pretty expensive ( ~ $600) so I am trying Auralex propad first ( ~ $150) in a week or so...
Re: New ET-3

Re: interconnect advice
Thanks for reply guys.
I tried monoprice, monster and then Cardas Cross and the difference was significant enough to justify the big bargain price for cardas ( I got cardas cross for less than $100 a pair ).

Re: Wes_in_VA's living room setup
Nice setup. It has very retro look to it, but nice. Clean lines and setup. Very cool! So what's your opinion on the Emotiva line? They have really taken the audiophile world by storm. Selling direct at bargain prices. I find that the discussion on most forums about emotiva is very polarized, people...

Re: ET3 and LP66S
Hi eagle6014 ,
How is your new ET3SE coming along ( breakin etc) and how does it compare with Base ET3 .
Did you compare Nordost Red Dawn with cardas NR/GR in your system ?
