Swiss Digital Fuse Box - "What headroom sounds like"
Switching to unpolished copper slugs in the amp and keeping polished copper slugs in the other three components is really nice. Gonna keep it this way. A little more body, warmth, and low end, and slightly less relative energy in the top end, as e... 
Swiss Digital Fuse Box - "What headroom sounds like"
@verafiaudio I really appreciate all three of those responses. Your answer to my question is brief, but that statement is what I was looking for. I admit that I don’t understand much about relays and the related terms. I just found that I actuall... 
Swiss Digital Fuse Box - "What headroom sounds like"
@verafiaudio Mark, I’ve got a question. It’s been awhile since I’ve read all of your comments on other forums, so I’d like to clear something up about what I recall less than perfectly. If, for some unexpected reason, the active parts on the circ... 
Swiss Digital Fuse Box - "What headroom sounds like"
@tksteingraber Generally, I would say amp first. A little hard to say what order would come next, but I’d guess DAC, then streamer, then preamp. But my preamp has a patented power supply technology that runs on only a tiny fraction of the power th... 
Swiss Digital Fuse Box - "What headroom sounds like"
Although my use of "headroom" to describe the sound quality still seems apt to me, I also think it might be something closer to "legroom" that needs a mention here as a way of looking at the mechanics behind this. Haha! Legroom 🙂. I mean like all ...

Can a better power cable make a difference if NOT plugged directly into an outlet?
@hilde45 When you go for it, a desktop computer with a decent power supply unit can be very useful as a cheap way to burn-in new cables before you try them out. My computer has a 1000 watt PSU, so my m.o. now is to cook cables (usually in a daisy... 
Can a better power cable make a difference if NOT plugged directly into an outlet?
@brunomarcs Regarding your comment: "You think this is a viable approach?" Viable, sure. Optimal? Not exactly the order I would do it. I would want to go in the direction which is most likely to discover which components are most sensitive to cer...

@secretguy Your snideness is no secret, guy  
Can a better power cable make a difference if NOT plugged directly into an outlet?
In my experience, power cables always affect the sound, no matter where in your system they are. The more length, the more they seem to impart their sonic characteristics. After tons of testing, one could probably approximate a connectors/plugs to... 
Network Acoustics Muon ethernet filtering system - Improving streaming sound quality
The Muon ethernet cable is really very good, though, in tonality, naturalness, and lower noise floor. It’s the best whether cable I’ve ever used.
