| blue jeans cable? I tried BJ cables twice and found them to be a tad bright and unrefined. I did like their subwoofer cables however. Two different systems yielded the same results for me. I find the newer bulk Duelund wire makes for a far more refined and musica... | |
| Room treatment and speaker placement???? @shadowcat2016 Most times when we post here we have no idea of the life stories and realities others have dealt with and continue to deal with. So very sorry to hear about your wife and your loss. Being married 40 years combined with your deligh... | |

| Looking For 90% of the performane of the super expensive cables for much less money What you asked for is fine and I never said it was not?

No way around it as it is a natural outcome of our imperfect and incomplete human condition and wisdom. A clear thinker such as yourself must understan... | |
| Looking For 90% of the performane of the super expensive cables for much less money Actually we do have examples of faith based notions that are presented to us as science. The “science”of the earth’s age, earth’s formation and creation, Big Bang etc... all have major gaps that require “faith”. | |
