| Is "detailed" audiophile code for too much treble? I don't know whay, but I enjoy a detailed presentation.

| Biwiring make any sense? How about owning biwire speaker cables but the speakers have only two terminals instead of 4? Is the signal split and flows into the naked or unhooked up wire? @kclone , I make no claim to have a real tight grasp on electrical theory, but i... | |

| Biwiring make any sense? @howardlee , it almost doesn’t matter what the subject is, the answers will range from "snake oil--it doesn’t have any effect on sonic performance" to "I hear a difference." Personally, I think it probably depends upon the speakers. If KEF or PSAu... | |
| High end bookshelf speakers for Small room @allenf1963 , I read your post and was intrigued by the speakers (actually I have found myself intrigued by many of the suggestions as not too long ago I was looking to upgrade my existing two ways which are in a small room). If I remember corec... | |
| Listening to what we Like Instead of what we have to But there’s definitely something appealing about listening to great recordings that are minimally processed, and showcase very pure sounding acoustic instruments. +1, @megabyte . | |
