| The Curious Case of the Technics Integrated Digital Amplifier Well, I guess I'm behind the times, the review is from 2015, when was the SE-R1 released? | |
| The Curious Case of the Technics Integrated Digital Amplifier So it seems this is a rather narrow piece of kit, I assumed it was full-width, and as far as I can tell, they are using a linear power supply. Curiouser and curiouser. | |
| How long is too long for interconnects? But I always heard (or maybe misheard) that longer speaker cables were a bad idea. Kind of depends on a lot of factors. I mean, ideally everything is close together, cables never cross, blah blah blah. The big issue among audiophiles is the big-... | |
| IM Distortion, Speakers and the Death of Science I can be bought with the worm in the Tequila. That would be a truly difficult thing, since Tequila doesn't have a worm, you mean Mezcal. | |
| How long is too long for interconnects? Balanced/XLR is better than otherwise, certainly best chance of noise rejection. Of course, your simplest choice is to run speaker cables that long. | |
| IM Distortion, Speakers and the Death of Science I’m not sure what I’m agreeing to, but I can be bought with tequila. Please send two cases of Dos Artes silver to my off-shore liquor account ... | |

| What is the average dealer mark up? Doh!! Sorry, I suffered mathematical dyslexia. I meant to say dealer markup was 40% for big iron/speakers, but up to 90% for accessories including low end LP cartridges. Best,E | |

| Magico vs the world i’ve never heard a magico speaker but from what i can gather one has to purchase ‘warm’ gear to enjoy them? is this true? @4425The only true answer to this is how you like your balance. They are not harsh or biting like B&W and their ilk. Th... | |
| Break in time that extends to months or maybe even years!! It's a huge selling point in some circles to buy gear that is extremely demanding. The speaker that requires megalithic amps to sound good. The amp that needs $10K power cables to bring out the best performance.Yes, I've heard break in, and no, I... |
