| Anticables Whoa! What? Not many reviews of Anti Cables? A quick I.e., 10 second, search turned up quite a few reviews plus Q&A, forum comments, etc. for Anti Cables including reviews by most major audio online magazines. Where’s the beef?Here is the conc... | |
| Why does it take so many hours to brea in arc preamps and amps? Actually, an expert in court provides expert opinion or evidence, not proof. See the difference? Besides an expert can be wrong, his testimony doesn’t guarantee success for whomever he is testifying. And experts don’t always agree. That’s why the ... | |
| Anticables Geoffkait: So, did you connect them in the right direction?madavid0 OPLol, yes, I followed the arrows. I also tried them going in the wrong direction -- no difference was readily apparent to me!Don't know what to tell you. Maybe there’s a mistake ... | |

| Audiophile fuses - Synergistic Black fuses vs the còmpetition stevecham"Wait a minute, a fuse is SUPPOSED to be a resistor, that’s how it functions."Really? Then how come the whole goal of high end fuses like SR and HiFi Tuning and Audio Magic, etc. is to increase the CONDUCTIVITY of their fuses by using pur... | |
| Who thinks $5K speaker cable really better than generic 14AWG cable? mitch2Geoffkait: You need to look deeper, grasshopper. Look inside.Why look inside....does the hook-up wire inside of the $99K amp need to be changed too? Definitely. If it were up to me I'd use cryo'd pure silver wire or silver over pure coppe... | |
| Who thinks $5K speaker cable really better than generic 14AWG cable? mapmanMystery not unraveled. Life and expensive wire go on.There is no mystery. You need to look deeper, grasshopper. Look inside. | |
| Why does it take so many hours to brea in arc preamps and amps? randy-11Nelson Pass IS an AuthorityExactly! That’s why it’s an illogical argument. An argument cannot be won by simply claiming to be an expert in the field. Besides, amplifier designers disagree on many things. I'm quite sure I can come up with a... | |
| Audiophile fuses - Synergistic Black fuses vs the còmpetition I see said the blind man as he picked up his hammer and saw. | |
| Audiophile fuses - Synergistic Black fuses vs the còmpetition mapmangk how would you know? I thought no fuses used in your system I mean Walkman. Too many issues there for you that Walkman solves completely for the price of a fancy fuse?I see everything, mopman | |
| Audiophile fuses - Synergistic Black fuses vs the còmpetition Actually the HiFi Tuning Supremes aren’t the real competition.What's the NASA connection for Graphene? Are there audiophiles secreted away within NASA somewhere? Are astronauts audiophiles? | |
| Who thinks $5K speaker cable really better than generic 14AWG cable? mapmanI’d return my 90k amp if I found out they cheaped out on the cord. If if you can do a 90k amplifier right and then get the cord wrong and the cord matters then guess what you screwed up and credibility gone.If you were buying the 90k amp whi... | |
| Who thinks $5K speaker cable really better than generic 14AWG cable? Speaking of Michael Fremer, wasn’t he the one who was challenged by the guy from the JREF Education Foundation, I forget that person’s name? Anyway, the challenge was if M. Fremer could correctly identify which cable was which in 10 consecutive bl... | |
| Why are low impedance speakers harder to drive than high impedance speakers timber77bdp24In a related matter, Roger Modjeski of Music Reference recommends hooking up your speakers to a tube amp on the lowest impedance tap that provides the power you need. So if an amp puts out 45 watts at 8 ohms and 30 at 4, and 30 watt... | |
| Do equipment stands have an impact on electronics? ptssOnly on the electronics that are placed directly on them.Stove Piping and the Backfire EffectI guess it was inevitable that a topic such as this, do equipment stands have any influence on electronics would bring out the self-styled skeptics an... |
