Most Important, Unloved Cable...
So you like the Supra more than the Terra in the end? 
INTERNAL CABLING- Heres some choices, give me your two cents on these cables..... Please _
Nice cap choices BTW. Did you use Mills MRA resistors? They are great sounding and $4 each. Much better sounding then sand cast resistors found in so many high end speakers.

12meters for $120 is a lot of wire? I thought that was your budget? Anyway,  understand if not in your budget. I typically never liked the sound of stranded wire always preferring solid core in the past. Tinned wire was also a big turn off for me ...

Remember the Belden and Supra are not natural cotton, but rather an artificial synthetic dialetric. This is a big reason why the Duelund will most likely sound better. It is always system dependent, but the new Duelund wire is very special stuff f...

I have a simple, low cost, and best solution for you. Go to Parts Connextion and purchase the new Duelund tinned and stranded copper wire in oil impregnated cotton. It is 16 gauge and will never oxidize. It ihas replaced IC and speaker cables cost... 
How much to ask for Atma-sphere z Autoformers?
Are they nude or in finished wood boxes? Paul Speltz  sells the nude for just over $500 and the fancy boxed ones for $1100 or so new. Used prices would be about 1/2. Ralph of Atma made his own in oak boxes and I believe they date back to 1990 or s...

Yes indeed the USB cable is very important. I just went to the Curious cable and LOVE it in my rig.

The best is 110% subjective. What is best to you may be mediocre, at best, to another. Surely we cannot say the other’s subjective reaction to an artist or style of music is less worthy than our own? That would be, well, elitist. Correct? In the e...

Charles has shared a lot of great music that I have very much enjoyed as well as others on this and other threads. I have been listening to Carmen McRae today. I like her recording of Billie Holiday tunes as well as Book Of Ballads. I do think her...

Tolerance my fellow Agoners for music and artists others feel have value. I like all the artists mentioned including PB. Charles is very cordial and open minded as his comments always convey. I hope some are not saying she has no value because she...

Barber is an artist and has her own unique style and creativity. All kinds of art and ways to communicate it in this big world.  She may not be many folks cup of tea, but she is a credible and talented artist.

Well until you get Tidal and stream with Ethernet how could you possibly know wether two Ethernet cables sound different? Goodness. Nothing like actual experience and evidence.

So you are not even using Ethernet for streaming music?
