| Interconnects, some have directional indicators, why? atmasphere wrote,"@jetter Usually the shield is connected at both ends."Uh, I don’t think so. That was kind of the whole point of the Audioquest dude’s article on wire directionality. You know, the article you apparently mis-read. Besides, if a sh... | |
| Synergistic Red Fuse ... mapman14,028 postsgeoffkait:Mapman, congrats on reaching the magic 14,000. "Could not have done it without you buddy."That’s what she said. You’re going where no man has gone before, Spockman. 😳 | |

| Cerious Technologies NEW Graphene Cables geez, has it really been 30 years since i built those Enid Lumley cable tunnels, using three 2x4s to make the tunnels, then suspending the cables inside the tunnels using eye hooks and thread? | |
| Do equipment stands have an impact on electronics? theaudiotweak"But Geoff your methods kill all vibration..in your own words."exactly! now you’re getting smart.By killing all vibration with your indiscriminate design and methods you are eliminating some or all parts of motion that are needed for ... | |
| Synergistic Red Fuse ... mapman14,027 postsThe nice gear the fuses were in probably had something to do with earning all those notessnarkaleptic alert! Mapman, congrats on reaching the magic 14,000. 😃 | |
| Do equipment stands have an impact on electronics? theaudiotweakThe motion of the bristles of the broom used to sweep shear under the carpet actually generates more shear. But Geoff you know that right? Tom Very good, Tom, that was almost a complete sentence. You know, the difference between my so... | |
| Cerious Technologies NEW Graphene Cables lakGetting the cables off the floor reduces the static that's down there, and eventually the static (etc) affects all types of cabling.Not to mention suspending the cables isolates them from the deleterious effects of floorborne vibration. | |
| Interconnects, some have directional indicators, why? mihorn wrote,"One has to listen 10~20 seconds (depends on the length of cable) for signal to find the way."whoa! what! hey! did you forget to put a smiley face? | |
| Interconnects, some have directional indicators, why? atmasphere"I have to assume that Geoff used the quote above to make the point of the shield being the driver behind directionality in cables. If that is not the case and somehow Audioquest was trying to make a point about wire being direction and ... | |
| Do equipment stands have an impact on electronics? agear, while that’s somewhat humorous (even though you’ve used that stale joke previously) what’s much funnier is that neither you nor the brain trust at Star Sound seem to know what shear waves are. Just more posturing and name dropping. i hate t... | |
| Interconnects, some have directional indicators, why? mapmangeoffkait@mapman, i suggest you get some Spock ears. you could probably use them.to which Mapman responded,"We all probably do actually.I’d bet anything they would have a clear and huge effect on what anyone hears. Unless deaf to start with.... | |
| Interconnects, some have directional indicators, why? mapman, if i can be so bold I suggest you get a hold of some of those Spock Vulcan ear prosthetics. i suspect you probably need them.have a nice day. 😁 | |
| Interconnects, some have directional indicators, why? georgelofiRalph, I tried to find the photo they had which seemed reasonable, but didn’t look really hard.But the way they explained it in the pics was that normal OFC copper is just round copper molecules all touching and bunched like tiny marbles... | |
| Interconnects, some have directional indicators, why? If you’ve ever wondered about the arrows on AudioQuest cables, read any of our educational materials, or merely followed any of the online chatter regarding our products, perhaps you’ve wondered what this “directionality” thing is all about. Maybe... |
