Is it worth swapping the speaker leads over at the amp. to check that it is not the speakers causing the difference?

...and the same thing with the inputs to the amp, reversing them to listen for the imbalance when swapping channels.

Thanks
Will try both speaker cables and RCA cables.

The speaker fell off. Cosmetic damage only. But so unnecessary. I feel your pain Brett - hate it when stuff like that happens... |

I have the Synergistic Research fuses installed. (1) Master on the EMM Labs DV2 and (1) Master on the Aurender N30 music server. While I had the components open, I also added a little Mad Scientist Graphene on some of the contacts, including the fuses.
Right when I powered the system up, no bass at all, kinda weird? I had to check if the subs were functioning. Only took about a day for things to shape up. Supposed to take about 300 hours to burn in, but I like the improvement in sound so far. Hard to describe, but it just sounds more relaxed and the music seems to flow effortlessly with improved imaging. Haven't had time to sit and listen for an extended amount of time yet. I am willing to pay the cost for the improvement, which hopefully only gets better in time! Thanks.

...and some people say burn-in is in our imagination  The graphene treatment I have noticed does take some time to settle. Do keep on reporting on it, I may be able to afford putting SR Masters in both my regenerators one day. |

Have an issue with sound volume on my system. Left channel is louder than the right. Fed up, I turned everything off for a day. Yesterday, all back on, and no volume discrepancy. Go figure! |

My linear power supply for the Project Stream Box S2 Ultra streamer arrived today.
Due to space limitations, the Teddy Pardo MiniTeddy suited the task best.
Has been in and playing for an hour.
I should have bought this a year ago.
Sounding good, straight out of the box.

This saving up for an item is tedious.
I'm not good at sitting on my hands in this fashion.
Since my last purchases, I'm now back at zero balance.

Be patient, Brett. You have plenty already and a trickle feed of rewards is not a bad thing, it gives you time to optimise every tweak before moving on to the next one.

Latest streaming tweak just ordered. I currently have a Paul Pang Quad Switch > Aurender N30SA music server > Emm Labs DV2 DA/Preamp. Will be getting in this Network Acoustics Muon PRO filter that will go in after the switch and before the Aurender. Hoping for great results!

Do report back on what you hear. EDIT: probably doing something similar to my twin DXE ethernet filter modules.  |

There's a super cheap Swagman Signature LPS for sale here (£25).
Can't see where I'd use 9v though...

Just installed the Network Acoustics Muon filter + Stealth USB-T Select cable. This combo has really improved imaging and realism to a degree never heard in my system. Really happy with the results so far!
