| best wood for speaker cabinets ? oak,cherry, balti Matt - I don't quite understand analogy with guitar woods. Cedar and Spruce are two woods with the highest strength to weight ratio and often used for the guitar tops to make it vibrate well. You don't want vibration and the one of the best materi... | |
| All Amps Sound the Same.... Jeff_jones - it is not that simple. SS designs 50 years ago were horrible with huge negative feedback and a lot of TIM distortions. Sanity is slowly coming back but amplifier design is not a trivial thing especially with budget constraints. The fa... | |
| Do powercords make a difference in sound? Btselect - that's true, power is very important but when you're in drag racing you don't care how smooth is the ride. There is plenty of very dynamic systems that sound horrible in spite of super outlets, dedicated lines etc. I do still agree abou... | |
| All Amps Sound the Same.... Most of my friends believe that all amps and CDPs sound the same (it is only about power while digital sounds always the same). Interestingly, they believe that speakers make big difference. 33% success rate ain't bad. | |
| Power Cord for Power Conditioner Paulsax - not only that science to measure does not exist but also that current science cannot be trusted. Amplifier, for instance, that has the best specifications most likely will sound the worst. | |

| If you could bring back one great artist that has "Vincent Van Gogh"Name sounds familiar, did he sing or have good ear for the music? | |
| If you could bring back one great artist that has Buddy Holly or Beethoven? It is a tough choice. I would only suggest that Beethoven's hits last perhaps a little bit longer. | |
| A new take on built in room treatments? Blindjim - the main frequency "amplified" by your room will be 1125/(23x2)= 25Hz. Unfortunately lack of absorption creates standing waves with peak and valleys at different frequencies at the different location. To tame it you'll need at least 4" ... | |
| Do powercords make a difference in sound? Al - I learn from your posts a lot. They bring necessary sanity especially to subjects like power cords. | |
| Using speaker cable as jumpers Cordovox - I use Audioquest biwire jumpers gold plated high purity copper. You can buy them in gold or silver plated version. Theoretically silver is much better conductor but we're talking about very thin layer of plating while gold is more pract... | |
