| Do your Cables migrate thru your system? Hi Argent; I've pretty much done what you have, and when the ICs, cables, PCs etc get "demoted" far enough, they end up for sale. However at this point, they may be good values for someone else who may repeat this process in their systems. Ergo, g... | |
| Tri-Wire Cables Bwhite; Most Vandersteen speakers (maybe all) are bi-wireable, but not tri-wireable. I did ask R.Vandersteen for a spkr cable recommendation, but he declined, just saying that there are so many and they all sound different.BTW, I ended up with bi-... | |
| Tri-Wire Cables Hi Bwhite; some respected high end manufactures, eg R. Vandersteen recommend against mixing different brands of wires in a bi or tri wire setup. The reasons given have to do with differing electronic characteristics of the wires. I have chosen to ... | |
| The Unbelievable Sheila Chandra... Issabre.........it's been awhile-- looks like this is one I'll have to look up. Craig | |
| true 24/96 digital output An excellent post Abstract7. I have a "new and better" understanding of 24/96 output of the Pioneer player. Thanks. Craig | |
| Eva Cassidy Philefreak; I agree with you and Beemer. I now have all of her CDs, but the one that got me started was "Live at Blues Alley", and remains my favorite.I had a thread not too long ago called something like "Music Finds for the Month", and my "finds... | |
| Rate the Audiophile Publications Hi Ozfly; I now like TAS the best. That said, I've auditioned and purchased many components or speakers that are/were Stereophile recommended, and they were all good recommendations with one exception-- which I won't mention.But when you start dea... | |
| Cones vs. factory spikes? JD; you are correct. I just mentioned J. Dunlavys's comments because he is a well respected speaker manufacturer, and I found his position regarding spikes "interesting".Until a few weeks ago, I didn't even know Dunlavys weren't spiked. I personal... | |
| Best headphones under 800.00 USD I own the Sennheiser 600s and also the 580s, and have listened to many others. On balance, I agree with Sdcampbell's comments about the 600's. The 600s are smooth and relaxing yet detailed-- also comfortable for long term listening. Cheers, and Go... | |
| Cones vs. factory spikes? Ikarus; you're right, it is complicated. I recently called Dunlavy Labs and ended up talking to John Dunlavy himself. I asked him why he did not put spikes/cones on Dunlavy speakers and he said "because they don't measure as well as without" (he w... | |
| Best Thread in Audiogon. Hi Kareoke; Audiogon is a large diverse community of individuals with a common interest, but only connected via the internet. I like the "Who R U" thread where we have an opportunity to get to know a little more about each other.I keep going back ... | |
| Cowboy Junkies Fans........ Hi Audioxcel; There is a Cowboy Junkies Video on VHS that was done fall 2000. They were not backed by an orchestra though-- it was just the regular band performing in a small venue. The tape is available from www.maplemusic.com or www.cowboyjunkie... | |
| I am stunned Hi Dekay; re your last 4/19 post: I suppose an internal biwire could be connected as you suggest, eg to compare single wire vs biwire, but I think the results would only be valid for that particular set up. R. Vandersteen says true biwiring is pre... | |
| I am stunned Dekay; don't read too much into my agreement with Redkiwi. It's as Paulwp said, I agree with the "spirit" of Redkiwi's post. Otherwise, IMO, in the near term, we've had enough of going around and around around about AB testing, ABX testing, scienc... | |
| I am stunned My take too Redkiwi, nice post. Craig |
