I need help with UPS.
@toolfan69  What was the value of the package you did not receive? 
Let's talk power cords
@willemj   Feeling the overwhelming gravity weighing heavily upon you?😔

This is the same controversy that involves the issue of cables generally. There are people here who do not hear the benefits of cable burn-in. It doesn’t align with their adherence to science, believing that all parameters of sound must have a mea... 
Vandersteen fans..need your input (TREO CT)
@nycjlee   I have Treo CTs mated to two 2wq subwoofers.  Congratulations on your system.  You have components and cables that are well known to play nicely with Vandersteen speakers.Great question about volume level.  I have thought about this iss... 
Opening a can of worms
@shadorne   I can, without reservation state that I am a logical, sequential left-brained thinker prone to wanting all things rationally explained, but  I know I hear differences in cables burned in or not. Just because there are such perceived di... 
Opening a can of worms
@geoffkait   Nice post.  I am struck by the angry responses from those who disagree with something YOU are hearing.  Only I truly know what my ears are perceiving as I listen.  In the same way, I can't disprove what you or anyone else is hearing. ...

@kosst_amojan   You mean my 👂👂lied to me. I hate when that happens!BTW your statement above "Unlike your cable break-in myth, my statements about cap break-in are supposed by actual science." is not very convincing. Do you even believe what you're... 
Opening a can of worms
@kosst_amojan   Interesting.  You seem fixated on capacitor break-in and by comparison I suppose it seems like I am stuck on the issue of cable burn-in.  to each their own.You said..."Seems to me the best cable would be the least reactive, not one... 
Opening a can of worms
@shadorne  of course not, as that would be a silly assertion.  Air is the "best" dielectric which accounts for cable manufacturers such as Audioquest who have been, for several years now, been using either PE tubes or Teflon tubes as the physical ... 
Opening a can of worms
@shadorne Congratulations, you have stumbled upon a truth!  Air it is.  But what is it that is sealing in what air is there around the wire, eh? That is where the burn-in takes place.  I just visited over a half dozen audio manufacturer sites that...
