Which is more accurate: digital or vinyl?
My friend you think I am talking about the Rega Cartridge?You had better go back and read my posts and pay attention and then don't regurgitate what I've said and try and take the credit.When I talk about a high resolution vinyl playback chain, I ... 
Power Cord for Power Conditioner
Sorry I was doing some catch up reading on this thread and a page back someone asked about demagging cd's and lps'.I do both and yes the effect is the same if you use a MC or MM cartridge.The better the cartridge the better the effect.Demagging , ...

Happy New Year and here we go again.I doubt there's anything new that I can add, but I have some spare time and this is also a good way to re-ignite my brain cells.Anyway here goes.I would agree that there would likely be little differences in sou... 
Upgrading Fuses
There is a difference between the two camps.One side, called the "believers" have actually used the "product" that is being discussed in his system and has drawn his conclusions.The other side has not.This side, the measurements types,who put thei... 
Anyone replaced Fuse with Circuit Breaker?
Invest in the Hifi Supremes.I used IsoCleans when I had a pair of Classe DR 8's and they made a nice improvement.You won't regret it.You'll have protection and better sound . 
Just a stinkin fuse...
Years ago Peter Aczel from the Audio Critic was the first person that I know of who said that fuses can degrade the sound.He was speaking at that time about bypassing speaker fuses.I've followed this ever since, never had any gear malfunctions and...

You'll experiemce time travel when you buy the better power cord, attach it to a better power amp, which is connected by better wires to a better speaker in a system that has been optimized with dedicated lines, power conditioning, room treatment ...

I guess I am chatting with folks who have never experimented with some of the different "feet" one can use on their gear.Maybe it's just me, my ears or my gear, but I can hear the differences when I use the stock feet with the amp,and when I subst... 
Power Cord for Power Conditioner
Yahooo Rayooo, you'll be flying high!These are better than my 4 Annaconda Helix versions.I know because my friend replaced his Annacondas with the CX versions, and sad but true, they are better.But then his system is much better than mine and is d...

So the construction of the speaker cabinet has no effect on the sound?Does the amount of bracing not matter? Or the type of materials used to make the cabinet not matter?There's no difference in vibration control between an inert aluminum cabinet ... 
Upgrading Fuses
Rodman,yes it is very easy to do,and when done, it's also easy to hear the improvement with the fuse out of the link.

Mr Rok2id, if vibration in resistors and caps is news to you, then there is no instrument that can prove it to you.What sets a true believer apart from a non believer?Well to be a believer ,you have to have some working knowledge or concept about ...

Magnets!Now that's interesting.Could you add some more info?When I was into the DIY replacement fuses I could hear the difference in sound between solid core copper and stranded copper wire.Please elaborate on what the magnets bring to the party, ... 
Power Cord for Power Conditioner
What gets me is that the folks who complain the most are the ones who have never even audtioned a decent power cord.You can't really think you'll be taken seriously if you haven't any experience with power cords.Saying they can't make a difference... 
vibration control
Everything vibrates,from transformers to caps to resistors.Some you can hear with the ear, like transformers when the electricity goes a bit wonky, or sometimes just because no care or thought was taken when fastening them down without a damping m...
