| Tellurium Q speaker cables @lollipopguild - I currently use the silver diamond and prior to that, have had the ultra black, silversmith fidelium, and Ansuz c2 speaker cables in the same system and room. Right before I switched to the tellurium silver diamonds, I had the due... | |
| Audiophile Grade Wall Receptacle @sidvicious88 - this is the very point most miss, thank you for your post : ) - I realised over time that no matter what is chosen for a wall receptacle, that another joint/contact/bridge was merely introduced into the power chain, to loss of soun... | |
| Can a great system make a mediocre recording sound good? Thank you for your kind words, mahgister : ) | |
| Can a great system make a mediocre recording sound good? @larsman - thanks for that, but it was my pleasure : ) - and the acoustic venue I was referring to was not the listening venue, but the original venue the recording took place in - and this will have effect played back on headphones or speakers - ... | |
| Can a great system make a mediocre recording sound good? @larsman - im not sure that I fully understand your question, but let me give it a shot - what I mean is that it is very easy to determine what a good recording is, because it will sound good, even on lesser sound/room systems. On the other hand, ... | |
| Can a great system make a mediocre recording sound good? I've found that most 'poor' recordings only sound poor because the system/room I was hearing them in was not good enough to translate the acoustics of the space the recording was made in. There are much fewer poor recordings than we generally beli... | |
| Other factors affecting sound Oh, I forgot to add, the wall outlet is one of the most overlooked parts of the power chain, as a great amount of interference gets through and into the circuit even with the already good hospital grade and SR orange type higher performance outlet... | |
| Other factors affecting sound hi there ei001h - the biggest leap in sound quality I ever got in my system was by running a dedicated 10gauge furutech CB10 line from my distribution board connected with a 50amp german made circuit breaker. But I didn't run the line to a wall ou... | |
| Elrog 300b vs we300b Thanks so much for calling me out for clarification, charles1dad, and do excuse me - the KR tubes I was referring to were NOS mid90s 300B I bought for about USD800 about a year ago, no where near 'a fraction' of the EMLs, but still a lot cheaper t... | |
| What makes the biggest difference in sound quality? thanks much for your reply, ted : ) - kevin | |
| What makes the biggest difference in sound quality? hi ted, may I confirm by your most recent post that your own order would generally begin with power cords? how would you rate the others after that, in this case, or correct my assumption, otherwise? | |
| Elrog 300b vs we300b hi there smodtactical : ) - I've had WE pre and post 80s, takatsukis, elrogs, KR audio, and different psvanes, among others, in my LM845P fronted system and only the Chinese tubes and others don't sound quite as realistic. Every single other has a... | |
| Putting listening ability to rest - privately This was supposed to be private, guys - but since you’ve made your results public, I think it should be said that audiophilia is about the ability to listen through the noise, big or small - nuance isn’t just about the skill to hear differences of... | |
| Describe the sound of point source loudspeakers? As in a speaker with a single driver that covers the entire frequency range? | |
| Describe the sound of point source loudspeakers? hi there tuberist : ) - is what you meant by 'point source' loudspeakers those that do not have multiple drivers that require crossovers internally and good geometries for their drivers externally, such that the sound waves from each driver arrive... |
