| What do audiophiles want from a cable? Yea thanks maybe something really big I know, but I just don't get the use of liquid in cables as discussed above,other than maybe for having an additional layer of control over photons' energy? I have always thought that electrons traveling down ... | |
| What do audiophiles want from a cable? Ok, so to answer the question imo, the least amount of insertion loss. | |
| Wharfdale's Denton Anniverary spker Any 3 way speaker of similar sound quality?? . If you want fabulous well developed midrange, there's a pair of rega rs-3 for sale in the used gear section. This is a 2.5 way, simple crossover between tweeter (19mm so not overpowering) and midrange, and a bass driver naturally blended without ... | |
| Inexpensive speaker cables the wires that have served me well are, for biwirng : "soft sounding" canare 4s11, and for single-wring, the fairly neutral belden 5t00up10awg, and my favorite for its superior neutrality, definition, control, lightness, and flexibility: the canar... | |
| Wharfdale's Denton Anniverary spker Any 3 way speaker of similar sound quality?? . I am currently listening to the dentons. Yes they are very pleasant to listen to. I have had many speakers and the one that I am thinking could fit your bill is the vandersteen 2ce. It is on the warm side, with smooth treble, goes very low, and... | |
| Question for sub woofer users Yes, two subs if you can, it will be more robust and spread out. Even though we say that bass below a certain frequency is not directional, you still feel where it comes from. | |

| Please help ...integrated amp under $1200 Another vote for marantz. I bought the 8400 integrated 6 years ago, and it's been on close to 24/7 and it works and sounds great. Built like a tank. What I have had in the past does not even come close in terms of quality and durability.. (adco... | |
| NAD C 316BEE vs. NAD D 3020 I would caution against the NAD. It is a good sounding and punchy unit, but the quality of the pre-amp section is questionable... on mine, the volume control crackled after just a few weeks, one rca input priduced distortion after a year, and now... | |
| Has anyone tried Blue Jeans Cable LC-1 RCA IC? Yes - this cable is a no brainer. It has the desired electrical characteristics, and great canare connectors. | |
| What do audiophiles want from a cable? low resitance/capacitance/inductance, immunity to RF... Therefore, for a 10ft run, 14AWG or less, OFC copper, starquad or braided or twisted, multi-strands. I am happy with Canare, Mogami, Belden, basic Kimber...anything else would be pure folie... | |
| Jumper Cables - use the stock or should they be upgraded ? I was just researching this on the web last night. I found the argument made byelectrical engineers and some speaker designer the most convincing; they basically claim that the contact point at the provided jumper measures an extremely low resista... | |
| Magnepan 1.7s in a 10x13' dedicated room? I have had mmgs and mg12s in a room a little smaller than yours 10x11. 12in diameter/4ft tall foam column 2ft behind speakers, back wall fully covered with auralex, side walls partially covered, top corners treated, and it sounded great! I have ha... | |
