OK, if nobody else is going to acknowledge the great big elephant in the room I guess I'll have to do it. Directionality. No, I'm not talking about which way the shield is connected or balanced vs unbalanced. I'm talking about unshielded cables wi...

I just checked out your feedback on Audiogon, Georgie Boy. 3? Gee whiz, I didn’t realize the numbers could get that low. See if you can guess who’s laughing now? 😃 By the way, I’m thinking of promoting you to junior assistant shill.G'day, mate!

Whoa! Daddy! This is a fine How do you do. I see this thread has gotten to the I'll show you mine if you show me yours stage. Taking a page from 12 Angry Men, "You can't prove it!" 😬

costco_emoji, I’m laughing on the inside. 😏 I’m afraid you’re putting words in my mouth by characterizing (some of) my tweaks as having a "psychological" effect on the mind. "Psychological" is a perjoritive term that implies the mind is tricked, a... 
What makes you build a system around an amplifier?
If you want it all, air, dynamics, tinkling of glasses in a small club look no further than Nina Simone’s first album, Little Girl Blue. Don’t Smoke in Bed, Mood Indigo, etc. That's what I'm talking about!

Look, the standard model of cosmology indicates the total mass–energy of the universe contains 4.9% ordinary matter, 26.8% dark matter and 68.3% dark energy. Thus, dark matter constitutes 84.5% of the total mass, while dark energy plus dark matter...

Einstein got the Nobel prize for photoelectric effect not relativity, gentle readers. It takes a long, long time before the robed priests of Science dare jump on board any new fangled idea. It's much safer and requires no work to cling to the outd...
