Western Electric Cloth copper 3M 16GA Wire for IC's
The new Duelund copy is better sounding for sure and yes use it to make your ICs and speaker cables. It is amazing stuff surpassing many high dollar cables in sound quality. This wire sounds so right. Get it at Parts Connextion for $10 meter. I us...

George,  the Audio Horizons site does talk about sound quality here; "with a level of detail and refinement so sweet, delicate, and with such presence and immediacy—well, it will make you smile."Come on now please be intellectually honest. Your qu...

George, first time I have ever posted these. Anyway these are direct quotes from manu sites and specifically answer your question perfectly. These are the actual quotes from manu sites on current and past products. I just did a 10 minute search an...

George, to answer your question;Here are just a couple of site quotes from fuse manufactures. Yes they obviously sell these, market these, based on delivering better sound. They don’t try to hide it and push better sound as the big benefit. This i...

I love Ivan Moravec. Listening to the double album of Debussy & Chopin - Piano Works. Thanks guys for the music.

Gk, good point. My point of reference then would have to be other recordings of same genre. Still subjective based on what I have heard on other recordings.  I have not heard MLP recodings on any other sources other then my system which is compute...

I find the sound quality of the few MLP recordings I just listened to be full bodied and natural in tone with no upper mid or treble thinness or bite whatsoever. Very nice indeed.

Wow. Listening to Sebok and Starker on The Mercury Living Presence label right now (Roon & Tidal).  Brahms & Mendelssohn Cello Sonatas. It is just beautiful. Love to hear about other pieces like this beauty!

Oh my you are right on builders getting upset. Sounds like a resistor to me and did you look very closely at them?

58, I build with the same parts and learned first hand how great Jupiter caps, Path Audio resistors etc... are. I would also add how great Clarity TC film caps are in a power supply. These TC caps are far better than oilers or Solen fast caps. Mor...

Good point and I have also experienced this attitude. I call it being closed minded and not having a healthy curiosity for what may be outside of their experience and current knowledge. Lots of knowledgeable people out there besides ourselves:)

I owned a set of $16,000 - $18,000 speakers built with $10 Solen caps and sand cast resistors. The builder told me upgrading the parts would not matter. He could not be more wrong. After the upgrade he then told me the Zobel network would not bene...

Many designers do not think boutique parts sound different or better. Many big names that I won't mention here think all wire, fuses, capacitors, resistors etc... that meet spec will sound virtually the same. They are wrong. Just because they are ...

I sourced some breakers for $40, but builders would get a far better price. Paul was also a recording expert and produced many a recording. I trusted his ears and brilliant mind and then tried it myself. Being in innovation professionally I have a...

Charles, I don’t know why many builders don’t use film caps in the power supply? Why they don’t use better internal wiring? Why they use such long signal paths? Why they don’t use breakers? Why many builders think one part sounds the same as anoth...
