| XLR interconnects? I haven't played her since.At that cable shootout, a Meridian G08 was the source into the Atmasphere MP3.We all preferred the Harmonic.The outcome of this was that my friend replaced a complete run of Cardas Neutral Ref with the Harmonic magic.Thi... | |
| Is cable synergy important? Perhaps I was a little too defensive,but I have a sore spot when it comes to questioning my intentions and experience.I totally agree, assembling music reproducing systems is not rocket science.It is more of an art.Anyone who assembles a system us... | |
| Is cable synergy important? I have no affiliation with clear day.I live in Canada, and found out about clear day cables on this site in a cable thread.There was alot of good words spread about Morrow and Speltz cables.But they aren't solid core silver.I had been using Goertz... | |
| XLR interconnects? Hello,Ralph,I used Canare speaker wire and canare wire in balancd cables when I had my Atmasphere MP3 and S30 and stacked Quad 57. The sound was good,I was happy, no reason to experiment.Now I have other gear that needs balanced cables.This time a... | |
| Is cable synergy important? All power cords are Shunyata Annaconda Helix vx.Dedicated 30 amp line into a Furman IT 1220.A Hydra 2 for the power amps.The last two( or the first two, depending on how you look at it)wires are my Ic and speaker wires,my speaker wires are soldere... | |
| Is cable synergy important? Maybe I should be more specific about what I am trying to describe and submit a theory I have about what I think is going on in my system.A few years ago I used all Cardas Gold Hex 5c in a syatem composed or Sonic Frontier electronics and Mirage M... | |
| Is cable synergy important? Well I used to be a firm believer in seasoning the taste of my system with mix and match cables.The cables as tone control type that some here seem to feel is the path to sonic nirvana.Been there, done that, have a box full of cables, cheap to exp... | |
| XLR interconnects? I should add that the other IC I used were Cardas Golden Ref and Shunyata Aries, both good cables yet each had their own sonic strenghts and weaknesses with the Clear day speaker wire.The Clear Day combo just clicked .Maybe it's because the same s... | |
| Is cable synergy important? I find it rather disturbing that it seems all right for some people to give cables from Cardas, Nordost, Siltech etc their endorsement, but it's not all right to say the same for a company that charges a reasonable price for their goods?I have use... | |
| XLR interconnects? I am really impressed with the Clear Day balanced interconnects.The xhadow XLR are a real treat in a solid silver interconnect and the price that vonwaffen is charging is very reasonable for the quality of construction and parts.I did a free audit... | |
| Amp for Tannoy TD12? I have the older Tannoy Arden(single 15)and used to use a Cary CAD 300sei.Very nice sound in a large room.Switching to the Red Dragon Leviathan Signature mono blocks gives you all the liquid smooth midrange of the set with the added bottom end aut... | |
| Speaker Cables Thanks for the encouragement.I just bought a pair of Red Dragon amps for my Tannoys and didn't want to do any harm to the amps.There is an improvement, more fullness to the sound now than when I ran just thin solid silver.Doubling up on the silver... | |
| Speaker Cables I am curious if anyone in the DIY camp has experimented using stranded copper for the hot(red)lead and solid core silver for the return(black)when venturing into speaker cable designs?If it is not a good idea I would appreciate the reasons why, an... | |
| Ray Lumley M100 tube amps My friend is using a pair of Lumley mono blocks to drive the original VR4 speakers and using an original Conrad Johnson pre amp from the 1970's.Talk about retro sound.I can't remember the model number of his Lumleys, but they use 4 KT88's a side a... | |
| Large Tannoy Speaker Placement question: I have the Tannoy Ardens in a large room and used to have them set up with the short wall behind the speakers.I get much better sound after moving the speakers in front of the long wall, they are about 7 feet apart and about 10 feet away from me,e... |
