Someone help me Sound Too Thin ?????
I've experienced similar synergy issues w\ Audioquest Crystal, just as Trelja & Sean mentioned above --- 
Audioquest is bright??
this possibly shows that the previous speaker cable may have been less revealing & was perhaps covering up something else. If new, first break the replacement cables in for a good 2 to 3 weeks.Then I might also check elsewhere to find out if t... 
DC offset level to avoid speakers damage-
Not to worry - a 50mV output offset calculates to 3 microwatts dissipation in an 8 ohm load or 6 microwatts into 4 ohms. Per Ohm's Law, power is voltage squared DIVIDED by the impedance 
Who's to blame for the Grain??
I am not using a power cord or a power conditioner,,,,,,,,,,,could this be the cause?Yes. I was also experiencing similar issues regarding 'grungies'. A high current line conditioner (capable of enough power for even the amp) helped tremendously. ... 
Ive got me the Digital Nasties
Cleaning up AC power definitely helped my problems in that regard. The JPS Digital AC cord is one popluar remedy here on the 'Gon, in the filtered AC cord area. An AC power input balancing transformer or other line conditioning has reportedly been...

Reversed Polarity LP Cuts - Examples?

Tube Pre for Klipschorn
Has anyone out there tried pure class A Solid State gear with their Khorns?Yes the Ayre V3 works very well with Klipsch. in my experience. Combined w\ the GTA tubed preamp yields a nice holographic soundfield. 
Is Audiophilia hereditary and or contagious?
and all along I thought this was an asylum ... (oops that's that *other* place) 
The Fastest most musical amp
Just to clear up some misinformation above...1. Spectral equipment is super wideband & can go into self-destructive parasitic inaudible ultrasonic oscillation modes without networked cables, which present a more stable load than any reactive s... 
Klipsch love them or hate them.
What do you think! I think they are the worst speakersWell you just had to ask ... so I'm just going to have to tell you that your statement is one of the most ignorant I've ever read on this forum. Nice troll 
Why my system has detail but no body & warm vocal?
I used to have the same complaints - thin & bright. Keep your hardware for now - you'll NEVER know the full potential of your present setup until you begin experimenting with upgrade AC cords, interconnects, speaker cables, AC line conditionin... 
How Many???
Whether you're talking speakers or electronics, these handmade upscale rarities that we buy I would guess only sell from several hundred to a few thousand units at most per year. I'm not sure exactly where I got that impression though; read someth...
