| Deoxit for cables Okay, has anyone else found that when they apply the deoxit gold, that a green residue forms after a few months? Is the stuff only for actual gold RCA jacks? | |
| Deoxit for cables yping, the gold product is not really a cleaner, I've tried it too. After applying it within a few months I had a little bit of green residue I wiped off the RCA jacks of my preamp. I haven't used it since.But the Deoxit D100 or D5 is actually a... | |
| Chinese Class A SS The point is not that China can't produce quality gear, it's that China has complete disregard for trademarks, patents and making cheap knock offs, to say nothing about the environment or even human rights. Yes you can buy reputable brand names m... | |

| Morrow IC's You know, it doesn’t matter which cable thread one visits. The cable brand in question is called everything good and bad under the sun, with it not uncommon to see a smattering of your disgruntled buyer or owner.This one waited four days past the... | |
| Morrow IC's fsonicsmith, I haven't heard Morrow audio suggest that if you unplug them you must start all over. I just scanned the several page document on break in that Morrow includes with their cables. It does not state anywhere that if you unplug you mus... | |
| Morrow IC's Wolf, good points raised. In my case, I paid for break in because the first two Morrow cables I bought, I didn't get the break in service. They recommend over 400 hours to break them in and it took a loooooong time to achieve this. I did hear s... | |
| Emotiva xpa 2 gen 2 power amp Ok, but not even a Totem slam? Brother, what’s wrong? Are you not feeling good these days, or did you make a new year’s resolution? Not to worry, I’ll let you slide, us audiophiles gotta look out for each other.🤜 | |
| Morrow IC's Cables are system dependant, and I suspect effects of a new cable in the system can be hampered by a less resolving cable in the same system. I had had some pretty decent sounding Morrow MA3’s but with the entry level Audioquest Type 4 speaker ca... | |
| Emotiva xpa 2 gen 2 power amp Mofo, I also criticized the Emotiva sound in this thread. Are you sure you want to be seen agreeing with me? Perhaps you should get into another one of your snits and go on at length in some kind of rant? | |
| ELAC Uni-fi - All Hype?? Please note in my post above, I mentioned a fellow named Paul Jones, but was of course referring to Andrew Jones. A renowned speaker designer no doubt, but with the internet being what it is, has developed an annoying fanboy following which can m... | |
| ELAC Uni-fi - All Hype?? I've seen certain behaviour patterns in audio forums like this one. Around some brands there is a fervent fanboy following that rises up and is easily identifiable. Emotiva, Tekton and whatever Paul Jones is currently involved with, to name a fe... | |
| Yet another Amp recommendation needed The lower line from Elac are said to be warm or dark sounding, but I haven’t heard about your model. If the Sound is similar then Parasound might not be the best match as their house sound is warm as well. | |
| Moving on from Parasound A21 (maybe?) billspec, your experience with the Signal Cable IC's reminds me of something. When I had the A21 it was running speakers that were laid back. The speaker cables I had for most of that time were Audioquest Type 4, also laid back. Add that to an ... | |
| Emotiva xpa 2 gen 2 power amp I’m not a fan of either. I had a first gen xpa-3 and it was bright with little imaging. For a low budget option I’d suggest Adcom, the 555SE for about 1300 on their site. Really great imaging and detail for the money. |
