| Musiclink cables sound better reversed I believe that the shield inside the cable is attached to ground only on one end, that being the end the arrow points to. When you reverse direction with signal flow going opposite of arrows your only changing witch component (sending or receiving... | |

My current speakers are Focal L&R Utopia Be, 3 way with 2 ports on the back of each speaker. They are 45Hz to 40kHz.Over the last few years I have owned them I have struggl... | |
| Outer ring - who uses and what are your findings I have a Merrill-Williams 101 (first edition) that I bought used a few years ago with the clamping system, which was an option at that time. I have found that as far as sound reproduction goes using the clamps has an effect somewhat similar to plu... | |
| Benz Glider SL or SH ? I looked up your phono preamp and I'm not sure of the version you have, but the one I looked at showed MC gain at 60dB or 66dB. I have a Benz Glider SL into a Fosgate Signature phono preamp that lists MC gain at 60dB, and it seems to have enough g... | |
| Jl audio fathom f212v2 noise and hum Hi esthios13, A couple years back I bought a Classe CT-2300 power amplifier and found the amp made a rhythmic hum sound. The sound came from the amp not through the speakers, turned out that my 60" Panasonic Plasma television was introducing DC vo... | |

| Power Cords for Parasound Never used Signal Cable, but I own 3 Cullen Crossover cables, obviously I found them to be good performers. I have tried 5 different power cord brands (nothing overly expensive), two of them I didn't like (way to warm in my system), when I decided... | |

| 2 Channel Subwoofer connection Joseph, as I mentioned in my earlier response you should keep your main speakers connected to your amp as you have them, then run a second set of speaker wires to the REL subwoofer. You will get the best sound reproduction keeping your main speak... | |
| 2 Channel Subwoofer connection Hi mamifero,Looking at a picture of your amps back I see you only have speaker level outs, that certainly limits your options. I think for the best sound you should keep your speakers connected directly to the amp. I don't know your budget but usi... | |

| RCA interconnects, can I expect 3.5 meter to offer good performance? Thanks for your response, I will contact Paul at Clearday and pick his brain. gshepardbuster,The fact that you are using 3.5 meters (phono stage to preamp) is reassuring, could you share what brand RCA cable you are using? I did post a version of ... | |
