| Help: Best Audio CD-R and CD-RW Blanks? Mitsui Gold no doubt about it. I recorded the same CD on both TDK silver and Mitsui Gold. The Mitsui Gold was so much better, it was hard to believe. I just ordered 100 of the TDKs and 25 of the Mitsui (just to try them) Now I want to throw out th... | |
| good silver IC's to audition? I have tried most of the cables that have been mentioned, plus a few that are very expensive and the Acoustic Zen Silver Ref beats them all in my opinion. I think you'll have to go to Siltech G5 or Nordost Vallhalla to get anything better. | |
| Analysis plus oval silver or oval 9 ? Analysis Plus Silver Oval is dull compared to Satori. The Analysis Plus might throw a wider soundstage than the Satori, but that is it, everything else about the Satori is worlds better than Analysis Plus. | |
| Best CHEAP floorstanders? I second the recomendation for the Meadowlark Kestrel. They are also quite easy to setup. | |
| Analysis Plus vs. Harmonic Technology I have had both the Anlysis Plus and Harmonic Tech. The Pro 9 is pretty good, I don't think to much of the Pro Silway 2. I think it is altogether better than Analysis Plus. I would check out Acoustic Zen. It is about the same price as Harmonic Tec... | |
| music for a broken heart I think Chris Speed's album "emit" works wonders when your feeling down. It is sort of somber and playful with notes that are filled with emotion always with a feeling that there is a glimmer of hope. I thought it helped me to feel a little better... | |
| Siltech G3 X H.T. ProSilway II I have owned the Pro Silway 2 and the Siltech 80 G3. I would say the Siltech is a much better cable. My findings of the Silway 2 are the same as Subaru's. The Siltech is a lot warmer cable with excellent bass and midrange, it wants for the transpa... | |
| Acid jazz/downtempo recommendations ? Check out Peace Orchestra, it is done by Peter Kruder and is an excellent recording. | |
| Are Tara Labs cables a good match for me? Tara cables for me were smooth, excellent imaging, good soundstage and full bass, if your sound leans toward bright they might work for you. The Tara I have owned is the Master Gen 2. | |
| Power Conditioners You may want to add the Sound Application CF-X to your list, I own both and the CF-X beats the Hydra hands down. | |
| Nordost Valhalla vs. Acoustic Zen Wow you guys are right diffrent cables sound radically diffrent to diffrent systems and ears. I would say that Quattro Fil would work better in a bright system than Acoustic Zen Silver Ref. I would say that could be the only problem with Silver Re... | |
| Nordost Valhalla vs. Acoustic Zen Keith, did you try the Valhalla or just the Quattro Fil? To my ear the Quattro Fil is very sterile sounding compared to the Silver Ref. I did an experiment in my recording studio and recorded the same music through each cable, and then played back... | |
| Advice on how to get FedEx to pay up on damage I had a situation similar with UPS, they damaged a CD player I had sold to someone. I had insured the player and it was obvious that had hadled the box roughly. They denied the claim on the grounds that the player wasn't packed properly. I marched... | |
| Very good Balanced XLR cable, suggestions? Tim I tried a bunch of diffrent interconnects and was the happiest with Acoustic Zen Silver Reference XLR. It is not a laid back or romatic sounding cable, it is very true to the source. To my ear it just passes more information through than any o... | |
| is BAT good with non-BAT components? I run a Wadia into the VK150se amps and it matches wonderfully. |
