Re: SDA CRS+ Crossover recap
I thought that big 40uf was going to be a problem … turns out, it’s the other 2 caps I can’t figure out how to fit properly.
My creativity has run out for the night 😂

Re: SDA CRS+ Crossover recap
New capacitors and resistors arrived today. Wow .. I didn’t really think about it before hand but that 40uf is pretty big.

Re: Short pair of Signal Cable I/C's
I would still give them a shot as long as they come with a reasonable return policy. I'm sure the amps you have would be just fine with them. As you well know there's nothing like 1st hand experience with a new toy in your room with your gear. Worth a shot .

Cleaning out the closet - Pass Amp, Audio Physics Speakers, Denafrips DAC, Lumin streamer, Cables
Hi Guys,
I keep doing the fun part of upgrading but need to let go of items I’m no longer using.
Pass Labs X150.8. 9/10 $3600 firm. You cover actual UPS shipping to lower 48, let me know your zip and I will cover insurance. Original Owner purchased from Mark at Reno HiFi in Dec 2021. I have the original packaging. I moved on to an Infigo Method 6 amp.
Denafrips Pontus II DAC in Black 8/10 - $950 shipped and insured to lower 48. I’m the original owner and purchased directly from Alvin at Vinshine Audio. I have the original Manufacturer packaging (Note the original was not sold with a power cord) I moved up to T+A DAC 200.
Lumin T2 Black Streamer/DAC in Black 8/10 - $1800 shipped and insured to lower 48. I’m the original owner purchased through THX Stereo in TX. I have the original Manufacturer packaging. This is the item that looks like it has a smudge in the pic. I moved up to Lumin U2 dedicated streamer with fiber input.
Audio Physic Tempo Plus in Walnut 6/10 -$1400. I’m the original owner of these dealer demos purchased from Goodwin’s High End in Waltham, MA. These speakers include the Vibration Control Feet (VCF II) The feet retailed for $800. This item is local pick up only, though I do have the original manufacturer boxes. With regards to the rating of these speakers let me explain- I have a doorway off to the side of the room. I placed a 24x48 acoustic panel in this doorway. Over time the cleaning robot apparently nudged the panel until one day the panel tipped over the small threshold of the doorway and like a domino it fell into the speaker which also tipped over. The result is what you see in the pictures. Other than that these speakers have been excellent and I would otherwise consider them to be 8/10. I'd say this is by far the best deal on this page and if you can get past the ding and are local you would be doing yourself a favor. I upgraded to Joseph Audio Perspective II (Graphene)
Audio Art SC-5-ePlus speaker cable 6’ -$275 shipped
2x Audio Art IC-3e ICs 1M XLR Furutech locking RCAs -$150 shipped each pair
2x Audio Art IC-3SE ICs 1M RCA DH Labs High Copper Alloy Ultimate Locking RCAs - $150 shipped each pair
2x Morrow Audio M4 ICs 1M XLR $125 shipped each pair
I think the prices are fair but let me know
of feedback, questions or if I missed any relevant details. I will post to the other
sites in a few days. Pic's incoming.
Thanks
Rich
