MISSING THE POINT?
Ben- If you like obscure stuff, you've got to check out Wire magazine. It's from the UK so some of the stuff they review is hard to find, but you will read about stuff that you are not going to see in the store (unless it's a good one like Amoeba ... 
Power Cords for Spectral equipment
Ucmgr- I have a Wadia 860 and the Powersnakes King Cobra powercord was an amazing improvment, it was shocking at how it improved literealy every aspect of the sound in a major way. 
Coincident interconnect opninions
Trelja- post it post it. We are in exactly the same ballbark and I would like to hear any of the comments you have, especially in regards to the diffs between copper and silver. 
Do I have to buy all new CDs?
Bravo Blbloom! 
Do CD-R's sound the same as originals
For the record the gear I use to burn CDRs is outboard gear, ie not done with a computer. I notice that most guys who are dissatisfied with the sound of the CDR are using computers to make copies. Garfish uses outboard gear and he gets excellent r... 
Do CD-R's sound the same as originals
Madisonears, Unless you have made copies yourself and compared the diffrences between diffrent brands and recording methods I don't see how you can presume that they don't exist. It would be like me saying that Krell amps are harsh and edgy soundi... 
bat vk60 stereo vs monoblocks...
I recently purchased the VK150se monoblocks. I did a lot of checking around and there are quite a few comments from BAT VK60 users who have upgraded their stereo versions to monoblocks on the Audioreview.com website. Go to amplifiers section and c... 
Do CD-R's sound the same as originals
Madisonears to say that it doesn't matter if it's burned, stamped, gold or silver implies to me that you have either never tried to resolve the diffrences or don't have a resolving system. I have tried all sorts of angles and they all make diffren... 
Coincident interconnect opninions
I got a set of Coincident new and I hesitate to comment as they only have about 100 hours on them, but I found that right out of the box they bettered AQ Lapis, TARA master gen 2, Harmonic Tech Pro Silway 2. The depth of soundstage with the Coinci... 
Which Wadia a better buy in value terms?
The 850 sounds like a good deal, you probably won't lose on that one. I have an 860x though I have not tried the 850. Your remarks in regards to the upgradability to 861 is a valid one. The reports of 860 to 861 owners suggests that it is a substa... 
Tara Labs Master Generation-2
I own both the interconnect and speaker cables. In terms of detail retreval the TARA cables are not the best. They in my system (Dunlavy 4, Wadia, Pass Aleph 2 amps) have a laid back character, strong bass, excellent soundstage depth, images are a... 
INTERCONNECT-advice from knowers!
worldcup 86- I got mine used, for 1/2 of retail. They are in my system. Aspects of them are the best I have heard. There is a depth of sound to these that is just amazing. The bass is really strong too. The treble region is a bit to laid back for ... 
Do CD-R's sound the same as originals
I have had the experience that they often sound better with my methods and equiptment used. I think that the blanks themselves make a big diffrence, I have only found one brand, TDK that has produced noticably better sound. It seems to make a bigg... 
Question from a Poor Pass owner
I left my Aleph 2s on for 2 months, when I was breaking in some power cords. Those use 600 watts at all times, and I really didn't notice much of a change, maybe 10 bucks. I bet you could check with the electric company and they could tell you exa... 
INTERCONNECT-advice from knowers!
I got the Coincidents today and put them on for an initial listen. They have the best I've heard yet depth to soundstage, images are clear cut and focused. The sound is full bodied, with a slight edge that can become a little fatiging. The do have...
