Reviews of $10k plus ics, speaker wires, and pcs
Audioquest is copied a lot. There are at least 2 Chinese factories who copy these products. For the Silver cables like Sky, Wild Blue Yonder and K2 they use copper of steel instead of silver. It has nothing to do with the same material Audioquest ...

Prices are also based on a price tag a company wants a cable for this high prices. In my opinion there are cables who can give you more new information other cables can't give you. And even with more expensive amps or sources this cannot be achiev... 
Wilson Audio Sasha 2 & Avalon Indra
First of all the way how they build a stage is very different. The Avalon's stage is wider and deeper. Within the stage you do a less intimate individual focus of instruments and voices.The Wilson give a less wide and deep stage ( even with the sa...

You need to test and listen it in your own system. MIT is not a good match with Pass Labs. I can easilly explain why. I sold and owned MIT cables. Pass Labs give a wide and deep stage but.....within this stage instruments and voices are not small ...

First I owned the XA100.5. I sold them because I needed the money. After this I bought the XA60.5. I wanted to review and test them. I already had a client for them. I also bought a XA30.5 because I could get it for a very low price. I loved this ...

The difference in control, drive, resolution between the XA60.5 and 100.5 were big. That is why my personal favorites are the XA30.5 and 100.5.

When you have a 93 db speaker, and you don't want to spend much money. The XA30.5 will be more than ehough. I loved the amp for the money. I never heard this level for this price.

In the past I sold Rel subwoofer like Stadium with Avalon loudspeakers. These days there are different standards. Rel make still fine subwoofers, but they are not the fastest in response. I would choose blind for a sealed subwoofer. I also prefer ...

hahahahaha...In the past I did cycle a lot. Don't forget I come from The Netherlands. There is no country in the world with so many bicycles. I have two. Even changing the place of your speakers with a few cm makes a big difference on the acoustic...

Because you make it personal, so there is no focus on the thread anymore. People are right that we fail because it has nothing to do with the thread.Woodworker is new overhere I think. He did not respond once on his own thread. We didn't help him ...
