Kachui 0 Report post Posted May 28, 2009 Just wondering, if you guys could only buy ONE tweak which would it be? Powercord, footers, CD demagnetiser, pulse generator etc. Think I would get the Powercord. But for the items listed, the CD demagnetiser and Pulse generator that we know of are from Acoustic Revive and each cost around $550 or more now due to the exchange rate. As for powercord and footers, there are many to choose from...especially powercord; thus price-performance ratio will certainly come into play for these two items.

I agree with you, and as Kidult has mentioned earlier, how deep we fall into the dark hole is limited by our budget. But then, depending on our financial means, the depth of the black hole is relative to each one of us, I guess (some of the guys here, the cost of their rigs will squeeze me into nothingness!). Err...this is sounding more like a discussion on black hole and Einstein theory of relativity, huh? Well, anyway, good luck on your CDP-557ESD...hope you find enough "energy" to make the next quantum leap soon. Edited May 29, 2009 by Kachui Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Kachui 0 Report post Posted May 29, 2009 Hi Jig_sg, What did you get a powerchord or a footer. Waiting for some one to share a Taoc footer. lol! @Jig-sg, did you get the TITE-35S footers? Kidult and I each have one of them to let go...waiting for another owner to let go of one (since we need three only), so we can sell them together, that's if you want to. Jojo, you interested?

I am using the Qi Cones on my Preamp and its power supply. They were made without any attached footers; thus naturally footers are needed and the Qi Cones are specially made for TS Lim's products. Placements of the Qi Cones are very important, I guess Nofing must have taught you how to place them when he sold you the Diva amp.

No prob. For the power supply you can also take a look of other footers such as Taoc & Acoustic Revive. I found different types of footers have different advantages too. =) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
