lessloss signature vs. dream state lucid
My systems power cords consist of almost the entire line of Dream State power cords along with Lessloss Signatures and Lessloss Originals. The two manufacturers approach their sound likes a bit differently. Dream State delivers fabulous midrange, ... 
HDMI cables are all the same?
Are all interconnects the same? Are all power cords the same? Are all speaker cables the same? No, they are not. I have used numerous HDMI cables. I have retained two different brands. For the bedroom and office connections to the satellite receiv... 
Soundsmith monitors - Opinions wanted
I attended Axpona and spent more time in the Soundsmith room than any other room at the show. I got to meet Peter, the designer and President of the company. He had two pairs of his own designed speakers set up in the room. They were actually quit... 
TV power cords; Money well spent, or money wasted?
I also have a Sony "Z" series LCD. I have tried several upgraded power cords and have noticed very minor improvements such as slightly enhanced detail and slightly improved color brightness and richness. The improvement is so slight, I would not s... 
Non-grounded power cables
Thanks everyone for your response. This website has always been excellent whenever I need an answer. Albert, as usual, you were "right on". I can use virtually any power cord on this player but only experience minor improvement in color and sound.... 
Talon Raven C vs. Tannoy 15 DMT's
I have not heard the Tannoy's but being a Raven owner for the last 6 years I can say for sure that they are outstanding speakers! Wait till you hear the bass go down to 19 hz! I have had no desire to upgrade for all this time. Dynamic, extended, g... 
Christmas Jazz Anybody?
Diana Krall has an outstanding Christmas disc. She "jazzes up" some of the ole' Christmas favorites. This is a must for the holiday season.

I have 7 Dream State P/Cs including the Natural Dream, Vivid Natural Dream, Deep Dream, Dream Catcher and the magnificent Epic Gold Dream. I've auditioned a TON of power cords over the years. I find this manufacturer to have done an exceptional jo... 
Jungson JA-88D a.k.a CA-2801A
I am currently using a JA-88D in my office system. Interestingly enough, I have it hooked to a pair of GMA Callistos. This is a fabulous combination. You already know how good the Callistos are. The Jungson really makes them sing. The sound is ver...

RECOMMEDATIONS FOR AC RECEPTACLE
I am in full agreement with Tboooe. Even at a higher price, the Oyaide outlets are definately the way to go. If you are having a problem with harshness, you may want to consider the red Oyaide outlet. It tends to have a slightly softer sound than ... 
Request recommended cables for my system.
Organic and natural?? Tvad is right on by suggesting Purist Audio interconnects. They are highly detailed yet render a superior musicality that I have heard in no other cable at any price. The Ridge Street Poiema!!! are also an excellent choice if... 
RidgeStreetAudio Poiema 3 IC'S?
I think the word "excellent" would be a good choice of words. I have 4 pair of P3's in my systems. They offer exceptional detail and clarity, extended and powerful bass with the ability to render virtually a live performance. An exceptional choice... 
The best sounding FM Tuner is.....
I've owned alot of tuners since I created this thread almost 7 years ago. It's kind of amazing that we audiophiles have such a passion for the analog gear of yester-year. After trying Fanfare, Magnum, vintage Yamaha, etc. I finally settled on a Ke... 
Where to put your best
My best has always gone from the wall to the power conditioner, then my second on the preamp. Complete system enhancement is achieved by using the best on both of these components. I have a lot of sources so I've found that it's the best way to im...
