| High Fidelity Cables CT-1designed by Rick Schultz They will break in 10x faster with the system on. Just sitting there pretty much does nothing, relatively speaking, in my experience. | |
| High Fidelity Cables CT-1designed by Rick Schultz Nonsense. Tara Labs cabling was being used in the Apex Audio room on the mezzanine level. I'm sure they were probably also being used at other rooms throughout the show. They are not "the best", IMO, actually far from it. You apparently were not t... | |
| High Fidelity Cables CT-1designed by Rick Schultz As I said above, I don't have a good feel of my system WITHOUT the HF power cable, so won't know its affect until I pull it out of my system in a week or so and hear what it sounds like then. That will be the best A-B comparison I can make. The Ul... | |
| High Fidelity Cables CT-1designed by Rick Schultz I already have all Reference and Ultimate Reference cabling and have had it for many months. Just trying the power cord. | |
| High Fidelity Cables CT-1designed by Rick Schultz Inserted an Ultimate Reference demo Power Cable into my system, placed on my transport, per Rick's suggestion this afternoon. Haven't had a chance to do much critical listening of my newly revamped system prior to this, so my best take on the cabl... | |
| Amplifiers:A Keeper for Life. Do you know of one ? VAC 450 IQ monoblocs. They constantly surprise me with their speed, range, bass and overall dynamic presentation, along with that sweet VAC midrange. Well-built, well-conceived, well-supported, well-done. | |
| The best speaker you ever heard? Best speakers I've ever heard are now the FOcal Grand Utopia EMs in my living room. Rod Thomson performed a "Master Set" speaker tuning yesterday and the results took performance levels to a new high. Very impressive what these speakers can do, es... | |
| Personal amp evolution Sorry...... :-) | |
| Personal amp evolution Updated: VAC 450 monos w/IQ circuitry | |
| The best speaker you ever heard? Best Speaker I ever Heard - Focal Grande Utopia EM. Were driven by Boulder 1500w monoblocks and other high-end Boulder electronics in a treated room. Heard the system earlier this week. Extremely impressive. | |
| High Fidelity Cables CT-1designed by Rick Schultz Leicachamp- Sorry you are having problems. Did you buy these cables as brand new from Rick, or were they used/demos from someone else?I currently have Ultimate Reference and have been through the other levels with no problems whatsoever. All have ... | |
| High Fidelity Cables CT-1designed by Rick Schultz Also in agreement. You really should know better, having been on these forums "a couple of years". Its a breach of etiquette and you are totally disrespecting all of us that have contributed to this thread. I'm surprised they let the shill post ev... | |
| High Fidelity Cables CT-1designed by Rick Schultz Hi John-As you say, you have never heard the High Fidelity cables. While I would agree with most of your generalizations, they are exactly that. When you actually DO hear these cables in a decent system, I think you will find fast, detailed attack... | |
| HiDiamond Power cords... 2 things, real quick:1- Both systems have silver Ic's - dryness built in.2- What power cords are they replacing? My guess would be that they lean towards the "warm" side, to the extent that is possible. | |
| The Problem with Synergistic Research J-I stand by everything I said above. You have not tried what I have, but I have tried what you have. I don't have the need for any tone controls in my system - they went away when I de-Synergized. In other words, I can now hear what my components... |
