| Why is good, deep bass so difficult? - Myths and their Busters Room acoustic treatment is the real key for getting deep and clean bass. My system was drastically upgraded through the use of less than $500 of materials. A good reference is http://arqen.com/acoustics-101/room-setup-acoustic-treatment/ Again, it... | |

| 2017 Honest Cabling that doesn’t promote bankruptcy I own both Morrow and ANTICABLES products - both are highly recommended. Both companies offer try before buying audition periods and are responsive to their customers. If your system components would benefit from a more smooth sound - go with Morr... | |
| Speaker Cable Suggestions My experience has shown me that cables (speaker/interconnects) depend on your desired taste and component interaction. ANTICABLES is a small enough company that you can talk with owner Paul Speltz and get information for decision making. As well, ... | |
| Thinking of replacing my Bat spaceheater with class D, real world thoughts please My Martin Logan Ethos speakers come with a 200 watt class D amp to drive the active woofer. It is pretty easy to get a 30-day trial period with many products...so recommend the "try and buy" for your own system. An audiophile friend of mine and my... | |
| Surge protection for amps? I use the PS Audio P600 which provides protection and regenerates the power to my components. I have a friend who has the PS Audio P10 which is a later reincarnation and has many more bells and whistles if you want a more sophisticated power regen... | |
| Class D = Trash? I use a Class D Classe Sigma AMP2 which works very well with my Audible Illusions L3A line stage preamp driving Martin Logan Ethos speakers. The Sigma seems to be very neutral to the music and inputs no signature sound. If more power is a requirem... | |
| XLR interconnects As several people have commented, if components have fully balanced connections, the balanced XLR connection does present an improvement over single-ended connections. I connect my fully balanced PS Audio DirectStream DAC and Classe AMP2 using a P... | |

| Anticables vicweastI concur with your statement:"The lesson for me was that when you introduce an excellent component into a stereo system, it will expose or clarify shortcomings in your other gear or setup."I have had the ANTICABLES Level 5 speaker cables i... | |
| Anticables I use the ANTICABLES Level 6.2 Reference ICs, Level 3 Power cords, and Level 5 Reference speaker cables which replaced items that were from 2X to 5X the cost of each of the ANTICABLES products. I am extremely satisfied with ANTICABLES products and... | |

| Class D Technology Agree with Kijanki, I have a class D amplifier that retired my favorite class A/B amplifier of over 20 years (recently modified about 2 years ago). I find my class D amplifier to be superior in terms of detail, spatial placement, sound stage and e... | |
| Has anyone tried these stunning new CPT power cord? I use Paul Speltz (ANTICABLES) Reference 6.2 ICs, Reference Level 5 speaker cables and Level 3 power cords in my system and am highly enthusiastic about the results. The ANTICABLES are very revealing and the difference can clearly be heard through... | |
| Who thinks $5K speaker cable really better than generic 14AWG cable? Having expensive equipment is not a guarantee of better sound for an individual. I have replaced expensive cables with less expensive cables because of interaction between components once the new cabling was in the system. Recently, I was going to... |
