    ... mapleshade power cords...?

    Hello to all... Looking for quick upgrades - like tennis balls under components to dampen them from vibration - and am considering installing a stepped attenuator ito the volume control of my vintage line stage tube preamp, but think the best bang for the buck would be to either swap out and...

    Is a Stepped Attenuator a real improvement... ?

    Hello to all... In my system: I use either a Wolze Triode Line Level Preamp with my CD, or my Onkyo A7 Integrated as a preamp (thru the Pre-Outs) with my TT, into my Coaxial EMI/Scope 63 speakers; the power comes from a Nikko DC Alpha 230 power amp. I have a problem: I can't get the volume...
