| Pure silver wire: solid, stranded or Litz wire? The simple solution I have used for making interconnects is wrap each individual wire with Teflon Thread Sealing Tape, basically, that leaves you free to use UPOCC silver or any other choice of wire. Then you make the litz wire combining the indiv... | |

| Does anyone knows these Reference 3A speakers? I have a brochure from Reference 3a from around the mid nineties. These are called La Crital associated with Baccarat Cristal, to convey the purity of the sound. The description is a Hi End slim column, extended 2 way and integrated subwoofer (ins... | |
| Biggest Baddest Audio Cables I found it difficult to understand the undisputed claim that gold has a lower level of resistance than silver, according to the periodic table silver is the best conductor, followed by copper, gold however is quite a bit less conductive. I therefo... | |
| What is the best power cable under $200.00 retail? TimePortal Audio Silver Reference, uses 6N silver only wire 18AMP, very thin multi-stranded, and an aluminium shield plus a furher silver plated copper shield. IEGO Rhodium plated Furukawa 99.99% burnished copper. Available from the internet US$17... | |
| Spades or bananas connectors? Bare wire is distinctly better, I have tried spades and banana plugs and couldn't believe the difference when I took them out of the system. I am using silver litz solid core cable, and oxidation is not a problem. I think cable stress doesn't degr... | |
| Anyone use CD tweaks I have just received a John Blue CD mat, which sits on top of the cd, without any preconceived expectations I noticed a signifant improvement, music sounds more distinguised, more detail, voices and wind instruments sound more natural. Overal the ... | |

Theoretically it would be the best metal conductor available (7n purity and single crystal.Che... | |

| Jungson JA88D anyone? I have the JA-99C/1C combination. I have compared the power amplifier against a Perreaux 250wts power amplifier, and the pre amp against a Plinius M-16 from memory. The Jungson did make the Perreaux sound like a toy in comparisson, the Perreaux so... | |
| Why is my Mcintosh MC-2155 slow? I have no experience with Mcintosh gear, but have noticed using silver interconnects and speaker cable especially speeds the proceedings up dramatically. Speakercable 16 solid core silver strands, flat braided makes the sound much more immediate. | |
| To cryo or not to cryo I don't understand this verbal merry go round about cryo treating cables or equipment. If it sounds better, buy if not don't. I have cable that is cryo treated but I don't have any cable that is the same without the treatment. My philosophy is if ... |
