    Someone from Colorado ?

    Hello all, It has been some time since I posted here. There is a small group of audio geeks that get together in the Denver area on a fairly regular basis. We are known informally as the DAM or Denver Audio Mafia. While we mostly concentrate on speakers and cables and stuff like...

    Art D/IO Tweaks

    The Stancor transformer is available form Allied Electronics http://www.alliedelec.com The Allied part number is 928-9919. The Stancor part number is STA-5790. The cost is $18.47. I ordered in one of these to see how it sounds compared to my prototype filtered supply and a less expensive...

    Art D/IO Tweaks

    If any of you are still interested, I have put the ART DI/O interconnects back on my website. These are made from Belden 89259 with the Neutrik gold plated 1/4" phone plug on one end and a Cardas AGMO with a voltage divider on the other end. I have a very limited supply of the Neutriks...

    Art D/IO Tweaks

    I have made a terminator from a Holco 1% precision metal film resistor and a Canare RCA connector. If there is interest in this terminator, I will add it to my products on my website.

    Monarchy DIP

    I too, own a Monarchy DIP MK II. I believe it is a very worthwhile addition to anyone's digital front end. You might want to try changing out AC power cord. I have found that the DIP is the most sensitive piece of gear I have to power cords. When I evaluate power cables, it is usually on the...

    Art D/IO Tweaks

    I have ordered in some of the Silver plated Neutriks to try with the DI/O cable. I will report my findings here when I get them. I have just heard from the people cutting the holes for the power supply case. They will be shipping the cases to me on Monday. Still no idea of the final cost of...

    Head-Fi Review: The Bolder Cable Company Type I and Type II Interconnect Cables

    Dan, That is GREAT! I am glad that a cable locked in the sound you want from your system. The very expensive cables are quite marvelous. I truly fell in love with the sound of the Kimber Select Series. I can never be able to afford them however. Cheers, Wayne

    Head-Fi Review: The Bolder Cable Company Type I and Type II Interconnect Cables

    Dan, It may be that the cables you like do have a slight upward tilt. When I was out at Kimber Kable in the spring, we did test a lot of cables. The shielded twisted pair was -.201 db at 41 Mhz. I don't think it is lacking too much on the high end side Check out this site for the test...

    CAL Gamma DAC

    An ART DI/O thread would be a very good idea. Maybe the moderators could collect all of the previous posts together in one thread. I will certainly consider a "package price" on the power supply, audio interconnect and digital cable. The connector will accept a "regular" RCA plug. I would...

    CAL Gamma DAC

    The 7 volts will not "damage" an amp. There have been cases where the higher output has overdriven a preamp or a receiver, causing distortion. In most cases you just have to keep the volume control turned down. It is for this reason I started making the cables with a voltage divider in them...

    CAL Gamma DAC

    Nice to see all the comments about the DI/O by people who have never heard one I own a DI/O. In fact I now own two of them as my order from Full Compass came today. The ART DI/O is the real deal. It does sound better than the MSB Link and other inexpensive DAC's. Yes it is VERY sensitive to...

    Great Price on ART DI/O

    chych, check out this link to Harmonic Discord: http://www.harmonicdiscord.com/forum...75&forum=17&25 Tyson talks about the ART DI/O and a prototype power supply I have built. I will offer it very soon. I am waiting for holes to be cut in the boxes for AC outlets. When I get the end plates...

    Great Price on ART DI/O

    dhwilkin, I have dealt with Full Compass before when I bought my first ART DI/O. They deal in mostly Pro Audio gear. Lots of headphone type toys in their catalog They are very courteous and prompt in their shipping. You can look at their website for the different lines they carry, but you...

    Great Price on ART DI/O

    Just a little note for anyone interested in purchasing an ART DI/O. I was checking around for a client of mine who lives in Brazil. I found the ART DI/O at Full Compass for $122.20!!!! This is 1/2 of list price. I ordered one for him and another one for me!! I can use the second one for mods. If...
