| Interconnect cable, $150 max For headphone setup I'm using Analysis Plus Copper Oval Micro IC in my headphone set up. IIRC I got them for around $150 like new. | |
| Anti static foam? Swampwalker wrote,"Geoffkait- Elizabeth did not say the the foam's antistatic properties were the reason why it worked. What she actually said was: "The idea of the antistatic foam is to remove the RFI as it is generated, suck it up and ground it ... | |
| Anti static foam? This seems like a good time to mention that static has nothing whatsoever to do with RFI. Carry on, smoke if you got 'em. | |
| Cyrogenic treatment for CD's? I have been treating CDs and other audio related items cryogenically for around fifteen years. | |
| When is digital going to get the soul of music? Of course, you could always argue, and successfully IMO, that the problem with digital does not lie with either the recording technology or the media (optical discs) but with the playback system. Has anyone noticed that stock off the shelf CDs for... | |

| Hi-Fi Fuses - SNAKE OIL? - or something in it? I may be treading on thin ice when I say if you can't hear the difference between a stock fuse and an aftermarket fuse, or between a stock fuse in one direction and the same fuse in the opposite direction, for that matter, then something's wrong s... | |

| Listening fatigue Comb filter effects (time domain errors) can be blamed for a lot of the distortion as the volume is turned up since the comb filter effects in the room are a function of the sound pressure in the room. Isolating all components from vibration induc... | |
| Interconnects Signal Path Actually, music is not a push pull thing, not where interconnects are concerned. You know, what with DC and all. With my Analysis Plus interconnects, for example, the best sound is obtained when the cables are connected in the opposite direction f... | |
| Hi-Fi Fuses - SNAKE OIL? - or something in it? Mapman wrote, "SOmehow, I have that live holographic sound without any of those. Go figure!"Sounds like a Bose ad. No offense.

| Listener fatigue: what does it really mean? Mapman, my gut is you would probably like Boones Farm.;-) | |
| Hi-Fi Fuses - SNAKE OIL? - or something in it? Mapman wrote, "There may be other ways to accomplish that as well so in that sense they might be compared to a band aid, though the defect they address might never actually heal itself and most likely would get worse before it gets better."Like th... | |
| WA-Quantum GmbH's Quantum Chips Thanks for the tip, Theaudiotweak, and I hate to judge before all the facts are in but the evidence that I have presented appears to indicate that the chips do not operate as vibration dampers. If they did, wouldn't they be interchangeable? And wo... | |
