Slow Down, You Move too Fast
Alrighty! Before I hit the slopes with my boy!Denon1-Thanks for the tip. Snake River looks very interesting. Nice metallurgy. I wonder if they have an amalgam made for their Cottonmouth Signature or use a combo of plated and pure wires. I have com... 
What Power Cord can improve clarity and bass slam?
I have a big bias towards BMI. After trying many cords in the past, they have been the best for me in all applications. There is a Hammerhead MKIV for sale here and it is an excellent contender. After a lot of trial and error, I would have to say ... 
Slow Down, You Move too Fast
hey there audio labyrinth. I am deep into a long stretch of hours at the hospital and will try to find time to respond. BMI power cord has been a staple of mind for some time. I have not heard anything that sounds better on my system 
Slow Down, You Move too Fast
@ Jmcgrogan2 Gotcha' and am in agreement. Maybe kickback warm would work. Lak is selling some Vermeils...I wonder how they compare to the Moontails as the new Jade entry level. Does the Vermeil suffer from any loss of resolution and detail compare... 
Cable Costs Relative to System
That's an interesting point. MRSP of everything as the standard including cables would change things, but give a standard benchmark. MRSP of cables, too. Hmmm, back to the chalkboard! 
Any one here heard the Bmi Oceanic Statement?
I am using all Oceanics as well, but without the Rhodium. All are Statements, one is silver, one gold. The differences are subtle, but I would still love to hear the rhodium version. The original is on my Klyne preamp, the Gold on my Plinius amp, ...

@Audiolabrynth There you are! Shazam, right on time! Laughing is such a good thing to do....it's hard to measure the benefit, but I know it's substantial for me. And remembering to take a deep breath several times a day.I think you CAN help, re: s...

@Isosochronism @Jmcgrogan2 Ha! I am waiting for him! I have seen his tag and rave reviews for Tara. In any case, I'll gird my fiscal loins and try to keep the audiodrenaline at resonable revs. BUT, I do think the Tara SC's make the most sense. The... 
Slow Down, You Move too Fast
Well, I heard back from the folks at Tara and they recommended the 2. Might have saved me some dough, but oddly enough, after doing some more reading I though the 1 sound like the...well, the one!Kubala still looks awfully good. The Purist SC's? H...

@Chayro-You are likely right on that point (pun intendend). I have brass under my plynths, but only under my AMR CD as footers. The Klyne pre has MIGs and the Plinius has Waipuna myrtlewood. While all those have influence, it pales to cabling....B...

Thanks, Alan. I am unfamiliar with them, but will put in some due diligence and see how she rolls 
Review: Gabriel Gold Infusion Interconnect
Mani-2I have and just recently sold off my set of Rapture r speaker cables. The MG Audio are on the chapping block, too! I am enjoying trying out some other speaker cables. The Infusion IC's are pretty fast and, along with the MG's, pushed my syst... 
Quality PC: plug into wall socket or conditioner??
Awesome!It depends on a lot of things. I live at the end of the grid and the power is really spotty. Otherwise, amps into walls is often a good idea. I think front end stuff benefits most from conditioners....but the listen and match up is the way... 
Power cable for ARC CDP
The Powerchord is definitely a great value. I always thought that the ESP Essence offers great banf for buck, great for sources and can be found for around 200. The last one I would mention is VH Audio.....all good choices. Just need to see which ... 
Cable Costs Relative to System
An old thread, with age old pondering and always new thinking! Surprise! Long ago and far away, my cable costs rocketed likely eclipsing the cost of the rest of my gear now. For me, it's apparent/obvious that cables are an essential component to b...
