Shifting things around
Posted: Fri Nov 08, 2019 11:17 am
Had a (minor) reorganisation of my main system last week.
Moved the P50sa from top shelf to Right middle shelf - above R power amp.
Main system DAC to top - away from poweramp.
On the 3 levels now :
Top - CD transport + main system DAC
Middle - Headphone DAC + Pi streamer + P50sa pre-amp
Ground - A40 + Pi PSU + A40
Also consciously tried to separate digital coax interconnects which are now restricted to upper/left side
and NVA analogue interconnects are lower/right side.
This has all resulted in a slight but noticeable improvement to the centering of the balance of sound coming from the speakers (was orientated to the right) and a general improvement in 'stability' with a more open soundstage and imaging.
Next move will be to tidy up the mains-lead spaghetti.
