| Patricia Barber, Cafe Blue "un-mastered" Good feedback, Erik. Musical taste is a personal thing. Probably the only thing in this hobby that is (or at least should be) beyond criticism or challenge. I agree that the latter tracks are more enjoyable and find the sound quality of these trac... | |
| Who thinks $5K speaker cable really better than generic 14AWG cable? Good analogy paieta. I can see both sides, but there IS both sides. To say that cables do not matter is to say that one is satisfied with compromises. Nothing at all wrong with that as long as it is acknowledged and understood. I love listening to... | |

| Who thinks $5K speaker cable really better than generic 14AWG cable? Is this the material you refer to, Jim?"Just remember my previous post…data errors don’t happen in 1-meter, jitter is a non issue because of reclocking, and noise doesn’t impact the successful retrieval of a data stream…that’s the whole advantage ... | |
| Patricia Barber, Cafe Blue "un-mastered" Good feedback, ampus. Thank you.Dave | |
| Who thinks $5K speaker cable really better than generic 14AWG cable? Best I understand it, they use resistor/capacitor networks to tune the electrical characteristics of the cable to optimize the signal (as they see best) based on the type of component (SS vs tube) and the length of cable (resistance/capacitance/in... | |

Onkyo A-10 is close sonically at a much lower price, but the Accuphase is superior due to its loading flexibi... | |
| Who thinks $5K speaker cable really better than generic 14AWG cable? So 12 gauge is enough, regardless of current flow, even with a 6000 w/ch@1 ohm, 158 amperes peak current amplifier? Good to know. Digging out that Radio Shack 12 gauge as I write.I guess all that nonsense about the time-smearing effects of cheap d... | |
| Shunyata or Synergistic for power conditioning? Humility becomes you, folkfreak. It is indeed rare IME to find someone as experienced and knowledgeable as you that is willing to pass along solid, balanced advice to those a step or two (or more) behind you merely at the asking.Let me know if you... | |
| Synergistic Red Fuse ... I think we all agree to that one, ptss. Care to say something intelligent?Dave | |
| Wilson Audio Haters Nice post, blackfly."In fact, to me, in audio, finding the "diamonds in the rough" in terms of gear and speakers is the real thrill; the gear that is passed over or older etc that no one gives any time to or no longer has "relevance" that is super... | |
| Who thinks $5K speaker cable really better than generic 14AWG cable? Funny thing about blind testing: It can prove that those that think they see are really blind, but it cannot make those that are blind see.Dave | |

| Who thinks $5K speaker cable really better than generic 14AWG cable? "Setting fire to your money would make more sense than buying $5000 speaker cables."More great and helpful "advice from the galactically stupid".Dave |
