Which band IS really America's Greatest (rock & roll band)?
Canned Heat is not chopped liver 
Filling audio rack tubes with sand, metal, grape nutz???
It’s no fun being no. 2, is it Robert? And all this time you thought vibration isolation was impossible. 😬 
Do speaker cables need a burn in period?
Claims that remain controversial among the relevant experts (e.g. I’ve seen many EEs say why the technical claims made by audiophiles or expensive cable companies are nonsense), and where the explanations are dubious, and the evidence almost purel... 
Do speaker cables need a burn in period?
bluerangerHey here is something to think about. All the naysayers need to think about what lays beyond known physics. The unknown. People are hearing differences and the current testing equipment cannot pick up on the differences. AB testing is a... 
The Beatles .....
The answer is yes. They are messing with your head. 
Do speaker cables need a burn in period?
Please don’t pollute audio discussions with pharma blind tests. There is no similarity whatsoever between drug tests and audio tests. In other words, for you philosophy majors out there, and master debaters, it’s a Strawman argument. This is just ...

Do speaker cables need a burn in period?
Outsiders and anti audiophiles frequently claim audiophile tweaks and audiophile rituals are weird or bizarre. It’s part of a carefully orchestrated smear campaign carried out under the pretense of protecting gullible audiophiles and argued with a...

Actually glass microbeads, which I mentioned earlier, on this or similar thread, work better in this application than steel microbeads. Glass microbeads are employed in my Mikro g seismic platform, introduced a couple years ago. Why glass microbea...

stevechamNo one here has the courage to talk about everyone’s brain burn-in period though. Neurons are far more adaptable than speaker cables. We are very good at the process of belief.>>>>Fools rush in where angels fear to tread. Here... 
Thiel Owners
profOh yeah, I've visited it before!The ongoing mystery has always been if the site is one big troll (not implausible given that seems to be Kait's modus operandi), vs anything serious. I think the site is mostly a troll, like many of Kait's comm...

Oh, like it couldn’t be something else in the cable that caused the “sheen,” you know, other than the dielectric? Get real! Was the cable burned in? 😛 
Best building material for vibration free shelving
That’s weird. I’ve never ever heard of anyone using mahogany for an audio platform. I’ve used oak, grade AA white maple, pine, cherry, walnut, Baltic birch ply, and I’ve used African Blackwood in other application and Gabon ebony. But never mahoga... 
Any new tweaks out there?
Why don’t I like brass? I have ranked cone materials according to their relative Sound vs. Hardness. Generally speaking, the *harder* the material the better the sound. But it’s a little more complex since cone shape also affects the sound. Brass ...
