| Best interconnects & speaker cable? I don't get it 03-10-14: IsochronismWell, there goes that theory that full looms don't work:)You do enjoy pouring gasoline of fires don't you Brett? LOL! No one ever said full looms don't work, only that they aren't the only option. Just as some like tube, while... | |
| Sadly missed manufacturers SoliloquyMeadowlarkDunlavyApogeeCounterpointThresholdEADCALTls49 and Unsound, I would also add the Cary name to the zombie company list, name only still around. They haven't been the same since Dennis Had left. Sorry if this offends anyone. | |
| VTL Ultimate fuse value VTL is still in business, I'm sure they can help, give them a call. | |
| Just a bit to bright 03-10-14: JfmerkI am still curious on one point... When considering amps and preamps, does one have more impact than the other on the sound we hear? Or are they equally responsible for the end result? I feel that the preamp has more affect on the ... | |
| Philly FM Radio and FM Tuner Redux Yes, FM music in the Philly area has been dying for many years now. I stopped using an FM tuner about 5-6 years ago as it was just collecting dust and taking up space. I still look at tuners, and have even seen deals so good that I'm tempted, but ... | |
| Charge for TT setup? I agree with the majority here who feel that the dealer is being petty, especially when it seems like you are paying full retail price for the table and arm. I could somewhat understand the dealer's price gouging if he had cut you a 20% price brea... | |
| Best interconnects & speaker cable? I don't get it @Tubegroover, sorry, I was not attacking you per se. I only got on my soapbox as an opportunity to respond to many in this hobby who trump that line that 'cables should not be used as tone controls'. It just set me off because it is pure fantasy t... | |
| Best interconnects & speaker cable? I don't get it 03-09-14: TubegrooverOn a final note cabling should not be a tone control but often I suppose thats what most of them are.I think that is one of the biggest misnomers in audio, is that cables should not be tone controls. All cables are tone contro... | |
| Fake RRP on cables. A Joke Well that's how you learn Leicachamp. Out of curiosity, did you tell everyone on the forums that you bought the cable for 75% off before trying to sell it? I'm sure that would have made selling it even harder if you did. There was another thread a... | |
| Fake RRP on cables. A Joke 03-06-14: LeicachampSome threads on the cable forum can go on for pages and pages, where the participants kind of keep to them selves the purchase price. When asked, the usual answer is " contact the manufacturer/company". It seems they dont want ... | |
| Fake RRP on cables. A Joke I would assume from reading this post that RRP = MSRP (Manufacturer's Suggested Retail Price).That being said, it is a valid point, but this game is not new. The cable companies are simply feeding off the public's demand to live above their means.... | |
| Best interconnects & speaker cable? I don't get it 03-05-14: Zd542I used to think that type of thing was good, but have since changed my mind. Before we had things like Ebay and Audiogon to use as resources, you had to be much more careful. When you can't get rid of a component easily, cables or o... | |
| Visa Tranaction Suspended for Unusual Activity Yes, I've had it happen several times, mostly when traveling. It can be really annoying in these situations. You're thousands of miles away from home and your card is shut down for suspicious activity. I even had it shut down once for suspicious a... | |
| What Power Cord can improve clarity and bass slam? ^^^^^ Let's hear it for Audiolabyrinth everybody!! LOL! He'll be here all week! Good night, and don't forget to tip your waitress..... ;^) | |
| Best interconnects & speaker cable? I don't get it I have a couple of extra pairs of interconnects laying around Jim, but for the most part, I sell them when I am done using them. I don't let them sit in a closet until they have no value. Keep the winner, sell the loser. I've gone through 7 pairs ... |
