| Cardas Hexlink 5C speakercables? 12ft -- the length alone may not be the "perfect" solution. The wires are about 10/11 years old.( Hexlink came out first the "c" was added in 91-thereabouts) If it were me,I'd be looking to score a shorter length / of maybe a newer model. I had th... | |
| UNBELEIVABLY BAD SERVICE - ELECTRAGLIDE Yes,me to on liz's comments. Not to mention we weren't privy to the entire dialog exchanged.Seems ,you didn't do your homework before the purchase; then take out your frustration on the wrong party. When assigning responsibility; look to yourself ... | |
| Problem running two sets of speakers Just a guess that the external volume pot is the culprit. I assume you have tried the speakers w/o the pot? Eliminating this should give you your ans. You may be able to get a better quality vol. control to keep the misses happy; a worthy undertak... | |
| PRojector v. RPTV The lines aren't quite as close a one might believe. 3 gun projectors still rule. However they are costly;and require special set up, sometimes outboard scalers/ doublers.The one eyed lcds & dlps have there own set of complications. #1 with me... | |
| my room sounds dead Sounds a lot like a speaker placement/ angle thing. I installed the big 4x8 sheets of "sounding board" Litterally sucked the sound out of my room. I then had to cover that with "live" hard vinyl panels. ( it worked) The "more bass when standing" i... | |
| Flood of Good Classic Rock Remasters Thanks, This is a big part of why I love to come here. | |
| RCA Connections to Amp (Jumpers) ? A, I agree with a post in caps. B,and more importantly; does using some type of device such as adaptors/jumpers affect the sound? I was interested in a Gamout 200 but passed, because of the bal. only connection. | |
| Any advise to improve my system Do we have any room treatment? Power treatment? Isolation treatments? As far as the equipment - nice choices. More always costs more; There is plenty of room for improvement/such as zillion $$ amps;speakers etc. No; Your not there yet. If these we... | |
| Illuminations D-60 RCA/RCA Survey There is black shrink wrap on each end .The end with the shorter length of shrinkwrap goes to the transport. I put a tiny colored zip-tie on that end.(excess of zip-tie cut off) | |
| Demagnatizing Phono Cartridges The Cardas Sweep Record is the cheapest method; once a month or so, and yes, you will hear the difference. On a moving coil cartridge;more silent background is noticed. I actually alternate with a Fluxbuster. | |
| What does State of the Art mean to you? I'm with leafs; at least he didn't just vote negative,anonymously. If you post here;many critics will read whatever you post. BTW; state of the art is my goal. It includes most anything, or all things, I can't afford. Mom said it would be like thi... | |
| Which came first, the chicken or the egg Just what everyone wants : a lose, lose, situation. Buy a magazine,criticise the author; it's less personal. | |
| As-Is, What does it mean? I guess who would win, is a moot point. The guy with the best lawyer usually wins; in the right or not. In today's business atmosphere "right" doesn't always prevail. This item wasn't damaged in transit, was it? I would take the expression,"as is"... | |
| Rudeness With 'net Sales I guess the potential is ever-present. Many inquiries (for me) are more about information, a review, sometimes combined with a low ball offer!- Yup,I get irritated;I some times take it out on the source;where it belongs. I did a transaction;spent ... | |
| Audioquest Diamond Sound I pretty much agree with all the posters. I had diamond2x for years. There are much better cables out there/ no matter how one person feels; to each our own,I guess. When the 2x came out (about 8/9 years ago)it was amongst the best. I don't think ... |
