Best cable for record cleaner, ever

Sometimes you have to change you
It always amazes and confuses me that I can listen to an album on Monday and love it and then listen again on Thursday and Meh, it does nothing for me. JD  
Just a public call out
Congratulations @telemarcer on your purchase’s. I hope you find years of happiness.   JD  
Mogami 2921 vs Canare 4s11 vs ???

Has the cost of HiFi gotten a bit too much?
Maybe some things have become out of control, but has ARC ever been cheap? Or how about McIntosh? Heck I took out a loan on my first large speakers. The used Bozak B’s were mine for 24 easy monthly payments. JD  
Do larger planar speakers produce more accurate sound?
I’ve had Planar speakers since the early eighties and still have a pair of Acoustat Model X’s. The midrange and the High-end are fabulous! The low-end, while accurate, has no push to it.  If I play the beginning of DSOTM loud, the heart beat goes ... 
Intergrated Amp suggestions for B&W 805d4
Look for hybrid amps. You can get the best of both worlds. The tubes will settle down those tweeters a bit and the SS will give you the power to drive your 805’s All the best. JD  
Does Anyone Buy Schiit for the Sake of Schiit?
I still have an original BiFrost in my second system. Worth every penny I spent at the time.    
Let me explain something to you jive turkeys.
Woooo!!! Flash backkkkk.  I shouldn’t of taken all that stuff at once!    
How can I tell if I am overdriving the amp or the speakers?
I’m still not sure it’s not my ears. JD   I wish everything was recorded at the same level!

“I am a Audience AR6 power conditioner“ Should read, I have an  Audience, AR6, power conditioner. JD  
DAC Merry Go 'Round- why I stopped at Weiss
Congratulations on finding sonic happiness.  I will try to check out Weiss and a few other things as soon as my wife gets a new kitchen 😕 All the best. JD  
Power Cable Break In - Such a Change!
OZ,  I am confused. If the cord was used, shouldn’t it be already broken in and the DBS is supposed to last as long as the batteries are good, plus about  three weeks.  What was the other change you made at the same time? JD  
Ohm Walsh Talls (opinions sought)
If the new Ohm speakers are anything like the original Ohm F speakers, I’d say buy buy buy! Placement was easy and the sound was fantastic! They are a speaker I wish I’d never sold! All the best. JD  
shiit Freya+ muffles the base? Recommendation for preamp please
Lol,  I still have an Audio Research SP-9mkll (89-90) on what is now my second system and it’s still sounding great to me! All the best. JD
