| 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... | |

| Audio Fantasies My audio fantasy is having Tom Cruise invite me over to hear his system! And then we talk shop and I convince him about things he does not have time to study. :) | |
| Amp Stands - Wood or Stone @bolong @ghdprentice Along the lines you guys were going, I treat my components like I have previous rooms where a heavy mass is isolated from the room (double drywall hung on hat channel for instance). I cannot say the sound is better, but I... | |
| What did you add to your 2 channel system to do HT? Thanks, and I did post a few photos of the revised room front with the TV and Wilson Watch in place. | |
| What did you add to your 2 channel system to do HT? What a coincidence this thread exists as I just added in HT gear to my 2 channel room. I was going to build a custom cabinet and rig the living room for a mini HT set-up but my wife was not totally down with that. So I begrudgingly came up with a ... | |
| so bass traps in corners do nothing, it seems we have been fooled. or are being fooled. My Tennessee systems page has room responses before and after bass traps. Mine are huge because i had the space to bulk them up. That helped quite a bit. Most times we have little real estate to work with. | |
| Can hi-end cables benefit less expensive electronics? More sophisticated cabling can reveal the limitations of your electronics and speakers. Then you’re headed into the death spiral of upgrading 😀 As an aside, there are less expensive and probably more effective digital cables that the Transp... |
