| Benefit of Tri or Quad Wire compared to Bi wire Thanks. Now, I recall those room dividers. ;-)Kal | |
| Benefit of Tri or Quad Wire compared to Bi wire Well, I did miss your reference to "big B&W800's" but I also tried to Google them and could find no references. Can you provide one?Kal | |
| Benefit of Tri or Quad Wire compared to Bi wire Quad-wired? I saw only 4 speaker terminals on the N800s I had making bi-wiring the maximum possible.Bi-amped and quad-wired? Seems more than compulsive.Kal | |
| SME Model 10 How much should I spend on speakers? "Would it be odd to see a SME Model 10 with Revel M20s and a B15 as speakers?"Odd. That only depends on your perceptions. If you like the way that sounds and it fits your life-style, why spend more money?Kal | |
| balanced vs unbalanced 1. Rarely but possible.2. Does the amp have a switch to select between the two inputs? If not, you probably need the jumper.Kal | |

| Does having an object inbetween the speakers bad? 1. Room acoustics.2. Speaker placement.....................N. Corrupting object in the center comes lower on the list but higher than cables or swapping DACs.Kal | |
| Why is 2 Channel better than multi-channel? ??? I find few restrictions in any format. I still have a few thousand LPs and CDs but my multichannel SACD/DVD-A collection is also well over 1000 and growing daily. That said, I will bow out of this thread whose title question I find unacceptabl... | |
| Simaudio W5 match to SF Line 2 I've used all the above (except the Cary) but not all at the same time so I am only guessing that they will go well. I did use the SF Line 2 (and 3) with the W-5 successfully.Kal | |
| The subjectivity of speaker quality Well, if the sound is really good and stimulating, my ears become engorged and enlarge so that I can capture more and more. :-)Kal | |
