| High end bookshelf speakers for Small room @tshark ...this very straightforward sentence has been very hard for many audiogoldenears to comprehend forever (later on, some lil weeny bookshelf on a rickety lil stand will defy all physics and do them some kinda miracle, apparently). The cabl... | |
| Recommendations for 20 amp electrical outlets Some of these house wiring YouTube videos are lethal. Literally. Just saying :) @devinplombier , I am sure that they could be. I just was not comfortable with the instructions in the book I bought. I actually watched a few youtubes and the on... | |
| Biwiring make any sense? I saw your link, @84xfirez-51 , and that was what I based my reply on. I am pretty sure I understand what you reconfigured your biwire to. | |
| Is Recording quality the real culprit? @feldmen4 , I was totally unaware of Sharon. I guess I'll have to order a copy. I discovered the Junkies rather late (right after Natural Born Killers came out on VHS) and then I bought everything I could find by the CJ. Which at that time end... | |
| Is Recording quality the real culprit? I have some recordings that were made using just one, stereo microphone that sound fantastic. @curiousjim , I can think of at least a couple also. Without going back and looking for others, the two I am thinking of are the Cowboy Junkies firs... | |
| Is Recording quality the real culprit? Conversely, a sub par recording can't kill great music. Well, it does for me. But that could be just me. | |
| Biwiring make any sense? @84xfirez-51 , I am not saying that is not correct, because I don’t know; and I am not saying it wouldn’t work, because if the runs of cable are identical pairs I see no reason it wouldn’t work; I am just saying that I was always under the impress... | |
| Speakers that disappear +1 @sounds_real_audio . | |
| Recommendations for 20 amp electrical outlets Gotcha, @jea48 . That definitely clears it up for me now. I did not know what an 'isolated ground' was before, and now I do. None of the duplexes I installed in the circuits I installed for my system are IGs, and on the existing circuits in my... | |
| Speakers that disappear No highs no lows, must be Bose. I am pretty sure that there are stand mounted speakers that do a better job at the disappearing act than Bose 901s. (And I had never heard Bose 901s referred to as "stand mounted" before, but who knows.) | |
| Biwiring make any sense? I had one cable on the +/- posts of the speaker and the other cable doing the same for the other post. I changed that so that one cable connected the + posts and the other cable connected the - posts. Hmmm . . . @84xfirez-51 , if I am interpret... | |
| Is Recording quality the real culprit? It may sound crappy, but it's still a good musical performance. Okay, but if you don't care what it sounds like, why spend the $ for good equipment? | |
| Recommendations for 20 amp electrical outlets Thank you, @devinplombier . I truly don't have a good understanding of the subject of home electrical and the isolated ground nomencalure confused me (which is not hard to do). Amm my circuits, including the dedicated circuits I installed for my... | |
| Is Recording quality the real culprit? Poor recording or mastering makes a good musical performance sound crappy. | |
| Biwiring make any sense? I had the cabling configured conventionally using two pair of cables. Only recently did I realize I had not properly configured the connections. When I did properly connect in bi-wire config,it really was another level. @84xfirez-51 , in what ... |
