| Nordost QB8 I have the QX4 and QB8. I'm not sure about my configuration but have the manuals if you want me to look at the recommended setup. That's what I went with. | |
| Nordost Dawn LS Series Speaker Cables When I changed my cables from Frey 1 to Frey 2 my dealer threw in a couple sets of Red Dawn 2 interconnects. I found them very close to the Frey 1. I had them both connected to my dac (1 was XLR the other RCA). The only thing that skewed my abilit... | |

| Can audiohile be done on the porch My tree house system is approaching $30k and the sound is getting very good. Only problem is the McIntosh meters attract mosquitoes. | |
| Fake RRP on cables. A Joke Just did a search 3/10/14. Vin2000, audiogon member selling Nordost cables due to financial hardship. Who buys a 3k speaker cable before going into financial hardship 30 times each year? He's a shady dealer or has a connection and is making $300 t... | |
| Anyone knowledgeable on the Mastersound 300B SE? Awesome amp. I had one in my house powering a pair of devore super 8's and later a pair of nines. 24 watt's with not too much to double down on so be careful to pair with the right speakers. Smooth, detailed, full of bloom but not a dull bloom. Be... | |

| Can a tiny silver bowl affect music reproduction Tgb, yes the SR bowls. Perhaps you are correct about the power of suggestion. Just reading through this threat again makes me want to pack a tiny silver bowl. | |

If that someone adds an esoteric product and sets it up even better, is it the product or the ability to understand room dynamics really well? I've been in a few of these rooms and even help... | |
| Nordost Vahalla or Tyr II The 2 series is more warm/liquid while being even more detailed. I agree with Xti16's assessment on the cables. It depends on personal preference. | |
| Tweeter type and brightness I've always gravitated toward silk dome but even some of those can be bright. I hate to say it but you usually get what you pay for. | |
| David Gilmour's Astoria Studio: Amazing Interview A nice focus on some of Tim de Paravicini's work. I've always enjoyed his gear. Very special. | |

| So sub or not to sub ftoole@harmon.com Sounds like an excellent resource, full of passion and knowledge. I don't have too much of a bass issue but i'm sure he can help. | |
| When to power off a tube amp? I've never heard a good reason to leave them on after listening as they warm up within five to ten minutes. I've never had an explosion but there is enough plastic volume in the boards to get a good roaster that could catch a pair of drapes on fir... |
