Warm, flexible, cheap-ish cables?
stereo5: Previously difficult to source in smaller quantities Canare 4S11G (OFC) is now available @ the following link (45 cents more a foot). This said, the original 4S11 (which I have) is not very flexible, but I do prefer it sonically to the ...

I’m flying by the seat of my pants when posting pics/links these days, but yes - unless you have a storage site the "already" works if it up for public use. Not about in/out from my side, but curiously funny as far a subs go, IMO. I enjoy "enter...

Black Ice F159 or Gold Note PH-10 ?
If you want rich tube sound and you use a MM or higher output MC research a used Ear 834P. Not certain what the MM gain is (used to know), but it was quite high in my setup. My dream phono (from 20 years ago) is the EAR 324 which oddly does not ...

Where's the next weak link in my analog chain?
What is the TT placed on? This makes a difference in bass/balance/detail with my old Thorens and it uses a sprung suspension. I use a specialty shelf that was discontinued ages ago (use one under the CD deck as well), but I’m not familiar with t...
