I really desperate for CD transport and love to hear impressions on this player

Yep it does stays on for 10-15 sec and then it slowly decay. Also when I press power button the Panther doesn’t go on strait away, there some sort off click in a few sec after button pushed and then it goes on. Same when I power it off. I guess its some kind delay thingy for protection.

Last night was fiddling with speakers and I found out that they sound much much better when the top rotating part of bracket is not screwed to the bottom one very tightly. I guess all that vibrating energy from woofers had no where to escape and backfired and clashed all frequencies in one mess...

Uhh ohh, hehe. As I said before I’m total noob and this my first stereo system, so don’t expect a lot please. I don’t even know how to describe correctly some of my listening experiences. To my ears Panther is very detailed, clear sounding not a lot of bass. Atm I use earth HDAM and soft 1...

here we go again lol.

Limit edition of 10 amps, hehe.

Finally got my tracking number from Cherry this morning.

I ordered my Panther 8/05 and still waiting.

Second try, HD600 cable. Mogami, furutech plug, cardas connectors. Hope my IKEA table don’t hurt your eyes too much hehe

You can buy cardas connectors from Moon Audio which is only $16 now and any raw cable you like (I used mogami), stereo plug and you have supa dupa nice cable under 100 euro. Even for novice in DIY like me was quite easy.

Thanks for replies guys. Loads of heatshrink, ohhh well it was my vision of strain relive hehe. Will use less next time.

Hi, I’ve started doing my RCA interconnects last night using Yarbo 50RB plugs which were recommended earlier in a tread. The problem is, at first I couldn’t find the spot to solder shield to and after some searching on the net I found tutorial where similar plugs (probably cardas) are used. And...
