| Interconnect using tonearm wire. ...IF you use lots of it. It'll take EIGHT pairs to get to 24g.!. | |
| What do you think of my 25 laws of audio If those are intended to be funny, I agree.. | |
| upgrading speaker crossovers & tuning Raul's comments make sense to me. I'm no GEA but I've heard differences in caps and resistors, the latter between the cheapest sand-type and the Mills NI WWs. I've replaced the usual 16g. inductors in series with the MR drivers of my Eminent Tech.... | |
| upgrading speaker crossovers & tuning I disagree with Unsound. I agree with Fischboat in that the quality of the caps and resistors probably leave a LOT to be desired. I certainly don't disbelieve that Richard Snell personally tuned each system. I THINK you can retain that by matching... | |
| Terminating AQ Bedrock cables I have, several times. If you looked at AQ's site, you'd see that these flat, double-quad cables have 4-different-size conductors in them, in 2 bundles. The 'bass' bundle contains 16 and 19g. pairs, while the 'treble' bundle contains 18- and 21g. ... | |
| Comparison of B&W N802 vs. 803D Have you ever heard Eminent Technology 8s? Only $1500 NEW, they'll sound lots more spacious and better for orchestral works (IMO, of course). If you like pop stuff, either of the B&Ws will do. Are you particularly sensitive to the quality of t... | |
| Multi Channle Amps I recommend the Outlaw 770. 200WPC into 8 Ohms times 7, ALL CHANNELS DRIVEN, and 300WPC into 4 Ohms, same. Sounds VERY nice, without any edge or unattractive sound. Only c. $1800 (or $1549 delivered for B stock). Here's a review that helped me mak... | |
| Favorite Center?? A used Aerial CC3B. Just sold mine for $700. Too late. :-). | |
| audiophiles or retrophiles "Solid state bad, tubes good." This has been true since transistors have existed! (It's a JOKE, boyz and girlz, it's a JOKE!!!!) Actually, SS equipment can sound quite good, and there are twelve of those cool-running little things in my 6-channel ... | |
| Best tubes for Sonic Frontiers 80 Surf, the Ei KT90 type 3 is a VERY-good-sounding 6550/88-type tube and was voted the best-sounding new-production 6550/88-type tube in the most-recent 'Vacuum Tube Valley' test. I've used them in c-j Premier Elevens, NewGen 94s (2 pairs each amp),... | |
| 24-bit 96-kHz remastering of classical Dave, exactly which remasterings on CD are you discussing?. | |
| Anyone listen to the new Conrad Johnson CT5 preamp Retail price?. | |
| Setting 6-ch. levels isn't as easy as you think The PAA2 is VERY handy for setting frequency balances. I recently bought a pair of Eminent Technology LFT-8s. As my much-loved main amps are ASL 805 SETs with only 50 Watts of power, I quickly biamped them using an old Dalquist DQLP1 electronic cr... | |
| cable break in "The speed of insulation polarization is comparable with speed of light so cable "breaks-in" as soon as you connect it to the signal."Really? Nah...come on...this is a joke, right?. | |
| cable break in Nsgarch's additional info is consistent with my understandings.. |
