| DIY speaker isolation base for a wood floor The granite slabs should be fairly large in dimension, maybe 18x18. 24x24 would be even better, more stable. If you can find one slab two inches thick, use that but only one slab. You want to reduce Center of Gravity height, not increase it. How h... | |
| Moving cables around killed dynamics for days anyone else experience this? Uh, the claim was 10dB. Who cares about 1 dB? Answer at 11. | |
| Moving cables around killed dynamics for days anyone else experience this? Who cares? Most systems are too bright anyway. | |
| How good can it get, really? - my stereo sounds amazing! What was the original question? I have long term memory loss. đŹ | |
| Moving cables around killed dynamics for days anyone else experience this? Humidity effects (Attenuation of high frequencies) on the sound in a room are very minimal. Just like temperature effects. Over very long distances they add up, though. Now, electric static charge is certainly an audiophile issue and related to hu... | |
| Best bass in Earth! Bass that just smells right... I donât like to brag but you people would not believe the bass thatâs right there on the CD. But you just canât hear it, thatâs all. Itâs like trying to excavate for the jewels of some Egyptian King. But, alas, the CD machines have never been able... | |
| Difference in sound between copper and silver digital cables? I donât reckon optical cables have ever beaten copper or silver digital cables for sound quality. Which you have to admit is mighty curious. On the other hand I havenât been paying much attention the past 30 years or so. Especially since I stopped... | |

| What makes a good equipment rack? Most likely someone straightened them out and they use some other material or fluid for the viscoelastic layer. If it wasnât Sorbothane it looked like it. Whatever it was sounded remarkably unpleasant. When I took the Zoethecus apart at the show i... | |
| Moving cables around killed dynamics for days anyone else experience this? taras22Yup, humidity changes can produce 10 db swings in sound level. That being said the body does adjust somewhat so most of the time its not that obvious. >>>>>Yeah, right. Maybe if you live in the Okefenokee Swamp. đ | |

| Moving cables around killed dynamics for days anyone else experience this? The other thing that often happens when switching cables around is that cables that were, perhaps accidentally, in the right direction find themselves quite by accident in the wrong direction. What are the odds? Gotta be 50%. Or even just one cabl... | |
| Miracles in Audio, by luck, by good choices,by design or by tweaking... Beware the Last Tweak Syndrome! This ironic and paradoxical syndrome oft occurs when audiophiles believe theyâve discovered a secret pathway to the stars such as Dr. Ellie Arroway found with the alien transported that bypassed ordinary time-consum... | |
