| Who thinks $5K speaker cable really better than generic 14AWG cable? A good example is wheels, not tires so much. Example: on the 2017 Mustang GT350R, the one with magnetic suspension and the incredible high revving engine, the wheels are an additional $15K over the standard GT350. Why, you ask. Because they are ca... | |
| Who thinks $5K speaker cable really better than generic 14AWG cable? Shadorne, How about providing an example of hyperbole used in marketing of cables? Are you making this up? | |
| Acoustic treatment for side glass doors / please, need ideas. I would be remiss if I didn’t put a plug in for crystals, which can be quite effective in dealing with vibration of glass doors and windows. | |
| WHAT HAS WORKED FOR YOU? ISOLATION PLATFORMS, FOOTERS, ETC. for a DAC? Bdp24, that’s an outstanding idea! It’s also what I just described. 😬 The aluminum or wood frame is a 3’ X 3’ open cube. Place the frame on Super DH Cones of course. | |

| Isolation footers for amps Another perfect example of feigned feelings of insult with the standard self promotion blurb from Robert. Just like Michael Green. One assumes Robert learned everything he knows about vibration management from Mr. Green, too. He obviously learned ... | |
| WHAT HAS WORKED FOR YOU? ISOLATION PLATFORMS, FOOTERS, ETC. for a DAC? One of my fav DIY isolation projects is bungee cords suspended from an aluminum frame (it could be a wood frame, too). By angling the bungee cords - one to each corner of a maple plate - you can effectively isolate in almost all 6 directions of in... | |

| Is Spiking Necesarry? It’s the Out of Phase track. Move the speakers a little at a time. Start with speakers about 4 feet apart and slowly move them apart. Would you believe most speakers are set too far apart? I suppose we must think soundstage will be improved by mov... | |
| Is Spiking Necesarry? Mr. Clone OP, to circumvent the whole problem of continually moving the speakers around to try and get the best sound why not just cut to the chase? Use the speaker set-up track on the XLO Test CD to find the absolute best locations for both speak... | |
| WHAT HAS WORKED FOR YOU? ISOLATION PLATFORMS, FOOTERS, ETC. for a DAC? I'm not saying that at all. Everything should be isolated, power supplies, line conditioners, DACs, etc. | |
| Is Spiking Necesarry? Only if your guests are having trouble loosening up. | |
| WHAT HAS WORKED FOR YOU? ISOLATION PLATFORMS, FOOTERS, ETC. for a DAC? Cables and power cords have no moving parts, either. Nevertheless.... | |
| Standing waves Standing waves are everywhere, well almost. Get a hold of an SPL meter and a test CD with test tones. You will find all sorts of standing waves, echoes, peaks and reflections that interfere with the pure unadulterated signal from the speakers. Eve... |
