MIT T- 2 OR BETTERCABLES? FOR SPEAKERS
I own a pair of Hales Revelation 3 speakers and found that in my system the Analysis Plus Oval 9 speaker cables were a good match. The sound is not laid back at all. The price is very reasonable, too.BTW, turn down the music a little and you won't... 
John Dunlavy On "Cable Nonsense"
What agitates people is not the questions. What's agitating is a questioner who poses a query, then insists that they already know the answer, yet continues to bait others into discussing the subject. In my book that's has all the earmarkings of a... 
Priorities, who makes the rules anyway?
"Priorities, who makes the rules?" is answered by a far simpler response than any of those above. In two words, "SHE DOES!" Any man who says otherwise is lying to himself or very lonely. Or both.

Nolan gone? First I've heard of it. The hockey reporting here may be almost non-existent, but surely it isn't that bad! Actually, we just signed Nolan to a new contract at the beginning of last season.Friesen we traded, along with Steve Shields, t...

Well, the blue-collar moniker certainly wasn't meant to infer a lack of skills. More that they lack the extreme star quality, big name players like a Dallas Stars or NY Rangers. So, instead of riding a few big horses they are more focused on playi... 
'L' Shaped Listening Rooms. What works?
Trust me that most writers don't make as much as software salesmen (my occupation). Of course, maybe it could be parlayed into a regular column or a best selling novel...

We know Roy does. They even taped one that eventually led to his leaving Montreal... ;-)As for the Cup being fixed, it may be that the Devils just ran out of gas. They're such a "blue-collar" group (that's said admiringly). It was amazing when the...

The only thing I'll add, and with apologies to Mapleleaf in advance, is one also has to have a firm understanding of the effort and cost involved in bringing a product to market, especially in a low volume speciaty item. This has a *tremendous* ef...

Dekay, you leave me SO green with envy! Tubes AND Time! (Yes, it has its price, but still...) 
How much are you worth ?
My system cost the same as I have in the bank which is too little. My vehicle was bought outright new and cost twice that. I don't own a home, have no real debt besides month to month expenditures and come and go as desired without quarrel or expe...

Sorry, Mapleleaf. Usually one to take the tack you describe, for whatever reason couldn't resist this time. How about we talk hockey instead...

It's actually pretty simple, Abe. It improves the sound. That is the goal, better sound, right? Don't knock it if you ain't tried it. Maybe the view of a fairly non-technical type might help. That being me, of course.Let's just stick with physical... 
Washington Post Article
Authors that write about things they do not understand, and do not attempt to fathom, do their readers a disservice. The only possible motive is to entertainment by demeaning one group ('philes) so another (Circuit City-types) may feel good about ... 
'L' Shaped Listening Rooms. What works?
Having an imperfectly shaped room is NOT the end of the world. There are much worse things, like death, taxes, world hunger and being stuck listening to only headphones. If the latter were the only option I'd sell my gear as there'd be no reason t... 
Which Rack Is Better?
Not familiar with the PS line, but have you thought of refinishing one of the rosewood racks in black? Might be worth the effort if it is a good deal and a nice rack.
