| Mojo Audio Mystique EVO Interesting. I purchased the very good PS Audio PWT transport two weeks ago because I have been hearing folks say what Benjamin just posted. Ben shared this with me recently. So I have a very nice Hijiri Nogami power cord on the transport and the ... | |
| Zavfino That is why I asked. Furutech makes some nice mini spades as well as others. Far more secure. Should also be used with stranded wire as it is more fragile and tight clamping will damage the strands. The strands will break over time and cause sonic... | |

| Zavfino @ozzy, did you solder/crimp spades to the conductors to insert into the AC plugs? If so, which spades did you use? Thanks. | |
| What were the radio stations of your youth that helped you on your music/audio journey? WBCN Boson. Peter Wolf had the night shift. Great station. If I recall correctly, they were the first to play U2 here in the states. | |
| That Other Audiophile Website Oh my goodness @tubebuffer! LOL! Once I catch my breath, then @carpathian says….“Once again, tubebuffer’s superior insight has hid the mail on the bed” Great stuff! | |
| A Record Collection/Moral Conundrum - What Would You Do? Nice @prof ! | |
| Aren’t the two main transducers, speakers and cartridge, the most important? On fire and unfortunately a bit off the mark. I like Doug very much as a reviewer and when I met him in person. However, my experience differs greatly from his with burn in and tweaks in general. I have done exhaustive listening tests on cable bur... | |
| A Record Collection/Moral Conundrum - What Would You Do? You have no legal obligation at this point. However, I can tell by your post that you care about doing the right thing here. Your integrity is important to you. The past actions of your friend have nothing to do with how you conduct yourself now. ... | |
| New speaker cables recommendations sought Both. I think more so by the way you cook it, but if specs on capacitance and inductance get somewhat extreme, then that will certainly correlate more to the observed sound. However, for most cabling it is the way you “cook it” as you say. | |
| Better CD Sound: The Search @charles1dad As you may remember, I did own the PWT before. I thought it had a very easeful sound that was supremely enjoyable. I bet the new transports, getting the rave reviews, offer improved resolution and such. However, I wonder if they offer... | |
| Better CD Sound: The Search What’s important to me is really two things.1) Sound quality is paramount. I want to have as much realism as possible in my home system.2) Finding new artists I enjoy on an ongoing basis. I may need both streaming and CD spinning 😊. We will see b... | |
| New speaker cables recommendations sought I see. You’re not interested in learning for yourself. I did more than read, I actually learned through hours and hours of actual experience. The good news is you can still enjoy music with the cables you happen to use! Have fun. | |
| New speaker cables recommendations sought Well, I make cables all the time. All manner of cables. Some recipes sound warmer. Some sound more detailed. Some darker and some more brilliant. I can change the tone, openness, resolution and warmth by conductor material, connector brand, dielec... | |
| Better CD Sound: The Search I love my streaming digital front end and have gone to great lengths and expense to have it sound as good as possible. However, I have several audio friends with ears and opinions I trust that say a great transport still sounds significantly bette... |
