| Audioquest Robin Hood Zero Contact John Rutan (audioconnection).He has the best AQ informationThough, FWIW, each new series AQ introduces generally outperforms earlier ones.I heard the William Tell's and was blown away.Bob | |
| Audioquest Firebird Zero @ctsooner ,When I ordered a set of William Tell's from Johnny, it seems they didn't come any shorter than 1 meter. My office system has my baby monoblocks right near the speakers and 1/2 meter would have been a lot neater (visually), and less expe... | |

| Seeking recommendations for DAC to amplifier balanced XLR cable @stringreen ,+1,I listened to Ralph Karsten when buying balanced equipment. If the equipment supports the AES 47 standard, then any XLR cable should perform as well as another.Bob | |
