How many would be surprised?
Very interesting as I have been experimenting with 26 and 30 gage silver & copper wire (though different designs) and have listened to the "tape" IC's as well. It's also a lot of fun on the cheap.

The person wouldn't be Gary would it? If so, I know the design as he is a friend of mine.

Wirehead: What gage are you using (30 gage)?

Come on guys. Were they crimped, soldered or other to the drivers crossovers/drivers? 
Is it possible to remote on a tube amp
I cannot see that it would be any different from using the power switch on the amp (see last sentence) though the power conditioner may change the sound (for better or for worse). Do you already use the conditioner on the amp? What amp is it and d...

PC Challenge Test Results
Nice system JHunter and also thanks for taking the Pepsi challenge. I also like HWY's test suggestion. The cords and inputs could later be switched on the players and the tests ran through again to see if the same results come up. I am certain tha...

JHunter: It would seem from what I experienced when rerouting the speaker cable, that bending the wire is a part of what effects the sound, as it was just moved and not disconnected. I would guess that this would vary depending on the design of th... 
How can power cords make a difference?
You guys are too kind. Or are you?

No explanation, but I find this to be true of anything that I "switch" in my setup (both cables and electronics that have already been broken in). Like you, Bruce, it takes a day and a half or two for everything to sound the same (familiar) again,... 
Sakura Systems OTA Cable Kit
Bruce, it's good to have your endorsement of the product. I wired up a friends system (speaker wire only) with the extra cable that I had and he asked last week if he could run it for another month (which means that I won't be getting it back:-). ...
