Celander,  How do you get extra bandwidth.  You lowered the resistance with parallel conductors and upped the capacitance and induction.  I don't see any reason for the bandwidth to change just because those changed..  I get the DAC and preamp are...

What do you think is being filtered that is improving the sound?  What other ways do you think you could achieve the same ends?

Oddly what you are doing makes sense to a degree.  I know nothing about the interactions of cables and gear.  As in why it happens.  Only a glossy idea of why it occurs.  Ok, I'm uneducated.  Now that that is clarified, I have made the following o... 
Pure Audio Project Loudspeaker with Voxativ driver option
Hey guys.  I have had the Trio 10 for about 2 years.  I have upgraded the Caps and Chokes.  You really should try the Solden 12 AWG air core chokes.  Like changing caps.  I have upgraded the cables and I have floated the crossover behind the speak... 
my ethernet cable?
All cables matter.  Audio is not a spread sheet.  Its audio.  Data cables matter.  I'm sure there are levels of diminished returns.  What should you spend.  Well, how good is your server, DAC, amps speakers etc.  How about your data network.  Do y... 
$700 Used TT Upgrade Advice, Is it Worth It For Me?
https://www.audionirvana.org/forum/the-audio-vault/diy/43633-rp6-hot-rodded-with-remote-motor-mountSee this link.  I did this with my RP6 and it became a phenomenal TT.  The arm change is not the biggest improvement.  It was pulling the motor off ... 
Luxman 505UX vs. Luxman 550AX Integrated Amps
I had a Rega Osiris and replaced it with a CJ Premier 140 with Teflon upgrades.  The CJ was a much more powerful amp.  It had a lot more dynamic energy and harmonic richness.  I have since moved on from the CJ>.  However, I found the Rega had a...

I have 2 humidifiers I run 24 /7 in my house.   They are really to protect the hardwood floors.   Having audio equipment on ungrounded circuits is not a good idea.  pay an electrician to get one 10awg circuit from your panel to your listening room... 
Tom Tutay Transition Audio Design Preamp
I still have my amps.  I had to do a bit of tweaking to get what can be had from the amps.  Tom has a good design, but he is very cost conservative in some critical areas I feel he should not be.   In particular I changed the caps on the signal in... 
Rega Planar 3 upgrades help.
A hugh piece of my text dropped out.  The big change was remote mounting my motor.  I screwed a 1/2" thick spacer of plywood under my motor, then pealed the motor off the plinth and used 30lb  sticky tape to adhere it to my base.  I also mounted t... 
Rega Planar 3 upgrades help.
This is pretty much a dead string, but I though I would throw in my 2 cents.  Yesterday I got a bug and modified my RP6.  I have always had the table on a 3/4" piece of quality birch plywood.  The plywood is sitting on pink bubble pack.  That was ... 
Isotek Evo3 Aquarius
I have tried a few conditions now, with different amplifiers.  I can say with absolute conviction, they all add some sort of change to the tone of the system.  There is definitely a synergy to what type of amp you are using and what you are trying... 
Is DEQX a game changer?
Well recently I upgraded my Mate to a Premate.  What a world of difference.  The loss of harmonic warmth and fullness with the Mate is no longer and issue.  When I received my Premate, I actually pulled my DAC out of the signal chain and utilized ... 
New level of ridiculousness
Have you ever considered the 200 units sold for $200,000 may only break even the cost of research and development, plus the cost of doing business.  Maybe its the only way an audio business can stay on the cutting edge and trickle down the technol...
