| Shunyata Snakebite I slipped three of these snakebite cords into my system after owning just one basic after market powercord (on the CD player). When I got to this last cord and slipped the 3rd snakebite into the CD player there was a significant degrade in the sou... | |
| Who's Hearing What? Big Changes Coming Sugarbrie, no new technology pushes the old tech away over night, or even in a few years. The CD hasn't replaced the LP, just marginalized it. In its day the LP was like the 2 or 3rd evolution of the plastic platter that replaced wax cylinders, ki... | |
| Is DVD-A still-born? All these postings about SCAD vs DVD-A are all missing the bigger changes coming. Buried in little news reports is the rumbling of bigger changes afoot, all these high performance digital chips are cheap. Look at the Tripath digital amp that is in... | |
| HomeGrownAudio cable Owners How is the quality of your bass? I'm trying Audio Magic Excaliburs and they are very nice, but, but... it seems like my bass has gotten drier, less weighty. And while subtle, I really miss it. I'm finding my music less involving. does this mean I ... | |
| Most emotionally involving cables? Interesting series of responses. So what did I mean? Assuming you are happy with the equipment you bought, there are cables that once inserted into the system change what you hear in such a way that... you melt into the music. Some want to call it... | |
| Absolutely Amazing Absolute Power Cords Appreciate everyone's concern, and deplore the bad manners. It took 97 posts to get a polite inquiry about motives. | |
| Absolute Power Cord does the trick Thanks megasam for being more articulate than me. I have only one other after market power cord to compare this one to. After experimenting, I've kept the other cord on the CD player as its a bit... sweeter (is it the wattgate plugs)? I ended up u... | |
| Absolutely Amazing Absolute Power Cords Gregm--don't let this s*** stop you from tooting your horn next time. Some times its a scam, and some times a guy has really found a great deal or a new sound. More detail would have helped, sure. I spent 6 months tracking little passonate posting... | |
| Bel Canto EVO 200.2 Vintgeguru is on target. Hearing the EVo with and without an upsampling DAC and good cables showed a huge difference on the same material. I listened to jazzy mid-70s Santana, without the DAC his solo was a bit vieled and recessed; with the DAC it... | |
| Best Silver ICs under 300? Anyone tried Bear Labs Silver Lightning? | |
| Bel Canto EVO 200.2 the first time I auditioned the EVo it sounded good. the second time the dealer had gotten the matching Bel Canto Pre-1 preamp, great cables, and put a DAC on the player. My god what clarity and sound! Dead quiet background. I ultimately bought on... | |
| To Sub or not to Sub...? Once you have it you can't go back. The excellent points noted in the first post on this thread over focus on the lowest possible note. A great sub isn't only producing the lowest note, its giving you great sound across a broad range (and HT explo... | |
| Marble to place speakers on? Due to two little ones, my monitors are sitting alone on top of a massive oak chest made of one inch slabs of oak. Monitors are at the right height and out of traffic (stands would get knocked over at some point) but they are obviously a bit too c... | |
| Marble to place speakers on? How would this slab of marble do for monitors? Any one have experience with it? | |
| Talon Khorus question Don & others, are you using silver cables? I've got Talon's Khite and ROC and I'm going to replace my cables now and have had some folks recommend all silver ICs, everything to get all the detail to the speakers. THoughts? |
