| Copper Sleeve over IEC hi, i think that it is easy to underestimate the importance of vibration controll on michanical connections. the copper sleave is heavy and dense, and i would bet that a large portion of what you are hearing is michanical dampening of the plug . j... | |
| Copper Sleeve over IEC hi, I am wondering if you grounded the copper sleave . if not it is realy not shielding anything. I bet what you are hearing is michanical dampaning of the iec, which could result in better sound. happy listening, chrissain | |

| Tube-aholics Anonymous? tvad. the m150s are very good stock, but they really can be taken to another level. I had mine upgraded before rogue had an official upgrade, I have compared my amps vs a friends stock m150s and it was like taking a blanket off the speakers with m... | |
| Tube-aholics Anonymous? tvad. I dont have much experience with the m120s, but I have owned the m150s for two years, have had them upgraded from stock, and love them. they are a hell of an amp for the money. a friend is going to have the pass xa30.5 for a listen and we wi... | |

| Revel Salon 2 vs. Revel Studio 2 Hi, I have heard both, and if you can swing it I would go for the salons , they have fuller midbass than the studios, and revel will tell you the same thing. if you get the studios, go with shandorns advice and get a good sub to go with it. the ar... | |
