| Room is way too bright. Maybe you have wall between windows and can make "shutters" out of panels and flip them over the glass during a session and flip them back to look like deco when not listening seriously. At least at the first reflection spots. | |
| Starting my showroom again @ckr1969 Gestalt Audio hifibuys atelier 13 audio These businesses sell gear we would be interested in. I have visited 2 of them and purchased from both. | |
| Starting my showroom again You have 3 big competitors in the Nashville market covering a very wide swath of products including some esoteric gear. I say, the more, the merrier, but it's not my coin on the line. You sound like you are leaning toward the more affordable and t... | |
| Any experience dealing with Siltech cables sold from Japan? The prices are a giveaway. No way Siltech's go for such low prices. Also, there are a few sellers who repeatedly try and sell knock-offs. Check their usernames and all their products over the course of a week and you will see the scammers. Sti... | |
| Wilson Alexia 2 lacking some bass You may be sitting in a null. I had a room 15 x 20 x 8 and needed to move my seat back until the room response flattened out from my ear position. I did this 6 inches at a time with the laptop and mic until it was optimized. It was not at the 62% ... | |
| Veritas Cables a new brand that I found https://www.siltechcables.com/products/princess/ That is the older version I have. The newer versions are Crown Princess. Not the end-all cable but the quietest brand I ever owned. My ultimate goal is to own KS Elations throughout the system. Ha... | |
| Veritas Cables a new brand that I found Veritas reply to my pontification: " Hi Pete, Thank you for taking the time to evaluate the cable and to put your thoughts into a cohesive write-up. While we obviously would have loved an over-the-top raving review, real life doesn't often w... | |
| Veritas Cables a new brand that I found Okay, Veritas has responded and I will post my observations and their response so we have both sides. They are a stand-up organizaion. 11/9/2024 Trial run of Veritas Argentum silver XLR cables on loan. System: https://www.audiogon.com/systems/1... | |
| Veritas Cables a new brand that I found I sent my write-up to Veritas. I will await their acknowledgement before posting it here. | |
| Veritas Cables a new brand that I found My XLR'S arrived last night and I put them on the Hagerman and will give them at least 2 days before trying them. Power was out yesterday so I have to reset a bunch of stuff anyways and I'll get to that in a few. They will be substituted for the ... | |
| Power cord Not a bad read and some of the cable summaries I can actually agree with from experience. https://audiobacon.net/2019/08/17/27-audiophile-power-cables-reviewed/ | |
| Veritas Cables a new brand that I found The Veritas folks are sending me an Argentum XLR cable to test out. I should get it middle of next week. It will be interesting to compare notes with lak. | |
| Interconnect Break In? Interestingly, I just bought my first set of SR cables (used Euphoria x SC’s) and find them quite compelling. I have not dabbled in SC’s of any great length after having used Fideliums for almost 4 years. I realized I do like a little more analyt... | |
| Interconnect Break In? @stager Generally, I agree a cable will reveal its true nature almost immediately. I have had quite a few cables through here in 5 years and some of the designs do sound much better after "burning in" @ddrave44 I don't believe the companies li... | |
| Interconnect Break In? From what I have read and my own experiences with two different burn in devices, it is the dielectric you are exercising, not the wire. There is a symbiotic relationship between the two for noise suppression and durability, yadda yadda. I believe ... |
