| DIY Nordost banana speaker cable replacement? I make all my own speaker cables. I use BFA style "banana" plugs. aka z-type. I use the simple crimp and solder type, either solid copper or silver plated. They don’t have a larger diameter insulated section to grab so I put 2 or 3 layers of shrin... | |

| Interconnects priority My system only has one pair of interconnects. I believe the simpler the system is, the better it sounds. Jerry | |
| I’m confused. Please explain. You guys are making great arguments why modern AI synthesized music is just fine with you. | |
| I’m confused. Please explain. My system makes Billy Joel sound like Sir Georg Solti. The goal is to make music sound as close as possible to what is recorded on the medium. Classical is often used as an example because it is easier to know what a piano sounds like than a... | |
