| Moving cables around killed dynamics for days anyone else experience this? My "intuition" does not suggest otherwise. A huge base of knowledge, experience, and actual scientific/engineering facts w.r.t. cables and the effects of what can/cannot happen with a cable when you connect it, disconnect it, and move it around ru... | |
| Moving cables around killed dynamics for days anyone else experience this? Hey moderator, can you give me some license here. Someone decided to attempt to insult me with a Nassim Taleb quote, so I would like to expand on his (Taleb's) quote. Let's look at who he considered "Intellectual yet Idiot". There were maybe 15 po... | |
| Moving cables around killed dynamics for days anyone else experience this? What seems to escape some people is the holes in their own knowledge and ability. You obviously do care, or you wouldn't have felt the need to post this, which it turns out is completely wrong. It turns out we are all born with perfect pitch, howe... | |
| Moving cables around killed dynamics for days anyone else experience this? Paulcreed, when you read what I wrote below, I want you (and everyone else) to understand that I am not implying you are lying or dishonest. I am going over all that you have wrote and trying to understand what is happening, and why. I am not goi... | |
| Moving cables around killed dynamics for days anyone else experience this? The evidence does not support your position. Trained listeners of no particular experience or skill, other than no hearing defects, are better able to detect differences than untrained listeners and though they want to think they are, most audioph... | |
| Strong bass causing buzzing behind the wall "It can probably bend studs, its that strong." .... is what was stated. I don't know if that is true or not. Unlikely, because the drywall will give first, and it will, if the foam has no where else to expand. | |

| Moving cables around killed dynamics for days anyone else experience this? And some of us, like douglas_schoeder and myself, have been involved in the setup, design, and testing, of 100's of audio systems, or maybe analyzed high hundreds of variants of audio products during the R&D phase (or both), and back it up wit... | |
| Moving cables around killed dynamics for days anyone else experience this? You don’t lose bass when moving cables. It just does not happen. If you truly lost bass, you have some corrosion issues or as Erik_Squires pointed out, a piece of equipment that has warm-up issues, though that seems unlikely unless you are using t... | |
| Who else here is frugal? asvjerry,I don’t think anyone can take your post in a negative light. It was one of the most "honest" posts I have read in my limited time on these forums. We sound like we are in similar places. Priority #1 being the business, both the daytime on... | |
| Moving cables around killed dynamics for days anyone else experience this? You can listen to Miller and believe his guesses at how things work, or you can verify what I have written is what has been learned by people who actually have spent years, decades researching these things whether in psycho-acoustics or other fiel... | |
| Another marketing gimmick? If evacuated of air it would get hotter. There are some gases that would improve thermal transfer to the glass, but thermal conductivity of gases is inversely proportional to molecular weight, and they escape easiest .... i.e. helium and hydrogen.... | |
| Moving cables around killed dynamics for days anyone else experience this? Getting a small room right can be very difficult, and depending on the speakers, can be near impossible, and to top things off, you have a square room. This is not a cable issue, it is an acoustics issue. Panel placement and usage will need to be ... |
