Do speaker cables need a burn in period?
some people have a talent for wasting words. 
Let's talk power cords
Has anyone been able to explain why power cable would make a difference?  Or this thread is basically a pissing contest.

Some people here can travel backward in time.  He claims he can measure and obtain data of an equipment before it was built.  Now I need proof and data how he can travel back in time.

I think data is only part of the equation. If anything, dataprobably comes last. If you want to build anything, first youneed a vision, some intuition, and some sound underlying reasons. Then you build a prototype. Then you measure and collect...

Believing in data regardless is in someway a dogma.  All dogma's are bad.

geoffkait could use a bit of restraints in his posting and his reasoning.  Saying I believe this or I don't believe this without exploring and thinking it through is just as bad.Einstein was known for this thought experiments.  Nobody back there w...

I am just presenting the cases.  As I mention, I am not either a proponent or opponent of "directionality".  People believe however they believe.  But I feel responsible for at least exploring the topic.

We have gone from burn-in to directionality.  I think the next pseudoscience ... err ... I mean cable topic to get a bunch of people worked up is does it make any difference if you let your speaker cables lying on the ground vs. having it lift off...

I got two hands for posting.

Another case for the "directionality" people, is that even if both ends are not being bias differently and the current is truely AC, on the drivingterminal in this case is the amp, the voltage is always slightly higherthan the other end since ther...

I can see the argument for "directionality" if the condition is not symmetric.Let's say if one end of the cable is subjected to one condition, and the otherend is subjected to different condition, then it's possible that the cablecould be conditio...

geoffkait,Actually I think knowledge is cheap since it's around us.  Beauty costs a lot more. 
Solid State vs. Tubes - What if Transistors came first?
It's odd.  I always felt it's the solid state that has a bit of a haze while tubes have better transparency.  Maybe some have attributed this "haze" as being laid back and having less of treble present.  I always felt that solid state a lot of tim...

I've learned that nothing and absolutely nothing is free.  The costliest thing is beauty and worth every penny,

There are too many people with no electrical engineering background saying things that just makes your head spin.It's complicated so don't simply things.  Do this simple experiment.  If you don't understand the reason behind this experiment then m...
