| Transparent Audio cables I agree that Transparent cables are way over the top overpriced. I say so with good confidence, because my best fried Dima Pronin here in Moscow works for the firm that imports Transparent cables to Russia. On recommendation of Audiogon-member Llo... | |

| To Z or Not To Z - Systems Behringer now offers a digital upgrade for the 8024, so that you could e.g. run it between the Electrocompaniet and the Chord. I understand that this is a new option. See for their website, if interesting for you. Or was the 8024 so disappointing ... | |

| TransParent Cables vs. Others I have tried Transparent cables, Cardas and German HMS cables. They produce good cables indeed, but IMHO their prices are ridicously over the top. The best recommendation came from Audiogon member Lloyd Guiberteau: Try LAT-International-cables. Th... | |
