| Silver speaker cable question S23chang, I must have misread the result. Thanks for the correction.Howard | |
| Redirecting bass frequencies This worked surprisingly well for me. http://www.optp.com/shop.cfm?groupid=Foam%20Roller%20Therapy&catid=Foam%20RollersHelped trap the bass, and reduced the effect of the all-too-lively high frequencies. You can cut the semi-circle versions in... | |
| Best Tweak??? Can't say yet if this is the best tweak ever, but I found a great way to trap the bass & reduce the high frequency echo of the room. I placed a 36" in length OPTP physical therapy roller in the most offensive corner, and it's amazing how much ... | |
| Silver speaker cable question Cool. Thanks, S23chang. I'll do the formula again, but I'm pretty sure it comes out at less than 200 DF in that case.Paul, Thanks for the compliments. Enjoy your cable project!Howard | |
| Silver speaker cable question That is the correct web site info for Michael Percy. It appears that the web site is down, or it went on vacation with him. I believe he is gone for a week or two. | |
| Silver speaker cable question Paul,As Marco suggested, http://www.homegrownaudio.com is a good source, though it appears their bulk wire comes no larger than 22ga.My last purchase was from http://www.percyaudio.com, and I ended up buying 20ga silver and 14ga teflon. Otherwise,... | |
| Silver speaker cable question Let's see if I have done this correctly. I plugged in the following numbers:20AWG x 8 strands gives an aggregate gauge of 11.03 AWGCable length (+ and -): 6 + 6 + 12ft.Nominal Speaker Resistance: 8ohmsAmplifier Output Resistance: 8ohmsGives a damp... | |
| Silver speaker cable question I just doubled up on one side, and with 4 runs for each pos/neg it already sounds MUCH better. If I ended up going with 6-8 strands, do you generally twist the end before terminating it?Jeffreybehr,Are you suggesting that with the remaining four f... | |
| Silver speaker cable question To do it right, your'll need to make 13 total AWG cable to get 200 DF.For 8 Ohm speakers, I ususally assume 4 Ohm nominal load.If this is the case, you'll need to make 11 AWG speaker cables.S23chang, what does this mean in terms of number of addit... | |
| Silver speaker cable question Thank you all very much for the feedback. Marco, I was afraid I might not have enough. Oddly, I heard a very high end system sound fantastic with just the two, but unless this fills out considerably, it's clearly not the right recipe for our syste... | |
| How much does power grid load effect the sound? Thanks a lot for the info. I thought that was the case. | |
| Power Cords: Signal vs. Shunyata I went from the Signal HC on a Jolida JD-100A to a Michael Wolff Carbon Source. Back and forth, my wife and I listened. They were not remotely close. With the Signal cable on the player, the soundstage collapsed, and the music sounded flat & c... | |

| Fedex or UPS? The driver finally showed up at 12:30pm today (I was promised no later than 11:30am), and he left the package at the front door. He apparently no longer needed a signature, as he didn't even knock on the door. When I walked out the front door to a... |
