| Quack System Upgrades asvjerry*LOL* Geoff, that’s just the sort of thing that makes me vacillate between amazement and mild paranoia. Things like that have an amazing tendency to just improve on us. There’s research going on towards in ’mind control’ of digital devices... | |

| Do equipment stands have an impact on electronics? bdp24For those still with me ;-), an inference that can be drawn from the feeling of being outside the physical universe is that the source of our collective consciousness, such as it is, is itself ("His" self) outside of it; the Creator and his C... | |
| Materials to reduce sidewall flex & vibration ? Texan Sonic dampers for speaker cabinets and subwoofers are, alas, no longer available. The problem with trying to use materials to damp the cabinets resonance is that almost all if not all materials trap as much as absorb. That's why Tekna Sonic ... | |
| Quack System Upgrades ejr1953OK, has anyone actually tried rubbing snake oil on the outside of their interconnects and speaker cables?snake oil, like vegetable oil, is an excellent shield against RFI/EMI, Mr. Smarty Pants | |
| Who thinks $5K speaker cable really better than generic 14AWG cable? Dynaquest4 wrote,"In an earlier post someone was touting (promoting? selling?) Nordost Odin cables (see link at bottom).

| Experimenting with reversing polarity to speakers What makes the whole polarity issue almost moot is the fact that most CDs are not in the correct absolute polarity to begin with. There are no standards for polarity in the industry so you get what you get. According to the Polarity Pundit G. Loui... | |

| Solid State Amps for Quad ESL 57? I've known Ric for like forever. He probably got it from me. 😃 | |
| Solid State Amps for Quad ESL 57? bdp24I, like Geoff, took the metal grilles off my Quads. Big improvement! I also removed the rear grilles with their attached absorptive pads, about which Quad owners have mixed opinions. If done, the speakers must be further from the wall behind ... | |
| Solid State Amps for Quad ESL 57? I had Quad 57s and there was precious little bass until I put them on Arcici stands, removed the metal grills and upgraded the power cords. Then the Quads had excellent solid bass and were much more open and dynamic. I drove the Quads with modded ... | |
| Do equipment stands have an impact on electronics? bdp24I actually don’t disagree with anything you just said Geoff. I had a few great trips, and then got some stuff laced with something, as you suggest perhaps amphetamine. Luckily, it made me so violently ill I expunged it all out of my stomach, ... | |
