| Interconnects, some have directional indicators, why? OK, time to stop messing around and pull in the big guns. what follows is what Mr. Low owner of Audioquest Cables says about wire directionality.our products, perhaps you’ve wondered what this “directionality” thing is all about. Maybe you’ve even... | |
| Interconnects, some have directional indicators, why? georgelofi"There was only one wire developed years ago 80’s for audio that I believe was directional. That was Linear Crystal Oxygen Free (LC-OFC) speaker wire from Audio Technica, it was heated up to such a degree it crystalized when it was drawn... | |
| Interconnects, some have directional indicators, why? to make things even more confusing, consider the following. First, the audio signal is not the electrons. The audio signal can’t be the electrons because the audio signal moves too fast, near light speed in wire, whereas electrons only move very v... | |
| Do equipment stands have an impact on electronics? dlcockrumgeoffkait: "Whew! Did I miss anybody?"Hi Geoff,Symposium Acoustics Svelte shelves and Rollerblocks (which do, I understand, "dissipate a polarity of shear that generates interfering energy") and edenSound TerraStone roller footers. I am... | |
| Interconnects, some have directional indicators, why? atmasphere@jea48 so-- if the electrons flow easier one way then the other (a reasonable interpretation of the first paragraph), what happens? Do they not all make it back on the return cycle.to which atmasphere replied,"Obviously the answer is ’No... | |
| New Mag-Lev Turntable Raymonda, are you planning to contribute to the Kickstarter campaign for the Mag Lev turntable? Don’t let the sun catch you crying. 😥 | |
| Interconnects, some have directional indicators, why? The problem is that wire is directional. All wire, wire in fuses, wire in interconnects, speaker cables, internal wiring in electronics and speakers, the wire in capacitors. That's why interconnects that are not shielded sometimes have arrow, you ... | |
| Do equipment stands have an impact on electronics? There are what, twenty or so vibration isolation stands, platforms, spring systems, mag lev for audiophiles? All the Townshend stands and footers over the years, Stillpoints, Bright Star sandbox and air spring tables, Relaxa mag lev, Solid Tech, M... | |

| New Mag-Lev Turntable raymonda wrote,"Geoffkait,Looks like you really like the engineering of this"Sure, why not? And with a half million dollars raised in the Mag Lev Kickstarter a lot of others like it too. Things that on the surface appear to be problems are actuall... | |
| New Mag-Lev Turntable "Hit the platter and it wobbles side to side while the arm remains static."Any iso device worth it’s salt will move when struck or pushed. It’s the advantage of mass on spring iso devices (and mag lev devices) that they move EASILY in the directio... | |
| New Mag-Lev Turntable raymondaWhat holds true for macro vibrations, hold true for micro.actually that’s not true for isolation devices since the top plate, which in the case of the mag lev turntable is the platter, can only move at the mag lev ISO system resonant frequ... | |
| Do equipment stands have an impact on electronics? wolf_garciaI’m utterly unconcerned with seismic vibration, although I do have vibrapods under things and a set of groovy cones (had those for many years…they look GREAT) under my preamp to add ventilation and because they look cool. All costing me... |
