| Found the bass culprit in my monitor speakers... It is possible to overstuff speakers Yes I think it is...I hardly believed how much acoustic wool I took out from such a small speaker. I know at least one very experienced professional speaker builder (Lee Taylor) who thinks all stuffing is bad ... | |
| Found the bass culprit in my monitor speakers... Thanks Mike. Good to know it from the profi side. All in all, this has improved muchly the sound for me. Interesting. Maybe the midbass was the issue and the trade off is about improving it. | |
| What the...have I just done ? Please explain... P.S. http://https//german-highend.com/en/infos/cable-voodoo/ "In the stereo application with cinch plugs, new problems arise with the spatial separation of the ground leads (L / R) of the 2 cables, which do not exist with the 5-pin DIN connector ... | |

Please explain... @roberjerman - Yes banana plugs, not jacks , sorry.@others - Maybe we should leave this topic - I think we won't come to a right conclusion on this one.

I plugged my cables thousands of times since, cleaned the posts and always made sure from time to time that the posts were solid ( b... | |
| Binding posts tightening physics and drastic change @millercarbon - how long ? Quite long, definitely almost a year (I think since I got them - at start made them tight) @erik_squires - my amp was on I think - no difference to it and not relevant. It has circuit protection board. | |
