| Networking cable for speaker cable? I just recently (last weekend) finished building a bi-wire set of cables based on the Chris Ven Haus design. I absolutely love them! I used 9 pair for the highs and 18 pair for the lows. It is a pain in the butt to do all of the braiding but after... | |

| Cryogenic Tempering I started a thread that was similar to this awhile back. Search for "Cryo Your Cables". I am also intersted in having this treatment done to my Bushmaster V- Match AR-15 rifle and the rotating assembly of my Suzuki GSXR dragbike engine but so far ... | |

| Speaker punishing bass I was just listening to Rusted Root. The track Drum Trip is a pretty good workout for the woofers. I also recommend Planet Drum by Mickey Hart. Those above who mentioned Billy Cobham's Warning cd are absolutely correct, it's been one of my favorit... | |
