7500 for USED cables? Are they joking? Sir, I have read through all of your posts in this thread. You consistently state most cables sound indistinguishable in a blind test. Are you not implying cables do sound the same? Please clarify.I have read many of the Dunlavy letters where he s... | |
7500 for USED cables? Are they joking? Thanks for the reply. I did spend a lot of time on physics web sites to try and remember what I had learned. I really would like to see an explanation of how electrons behave in small signal (source to preamp) and large signal (amp to speakers) sc... | |
7500 for USED cables? Are they joking? Mistake, the Dunlavy ULC 1 meter IC goes for $500 to $600 for the record. The new owner of Dunlavy, an electric lighting company, has changed the website and apparently omitted the cables. John says this gives him more time to design and leaves th... | |
7500 for USED cables? Are they joking? I finally have time to respond to the last comment made to my post on 2-28-02. Clueless asked me a couple of questions. Rereading my post where I stated polarization of electrons I had posted this on my lunch half-hour and I concatenated a coupl... | |
7500 for USED cables? Are they joking? First of all, I agree that cables should not have filters, unless we want a cable to alter the sound.The field of science of electromagnet fields tells us through mathematics that whenever an electrical signal passes though a conductor, it generat... | |
7500 for USED cables? Are they joking? In its simplest terms, it is used to "break-in" a cable by running a range of frequencies, which may extend several orders of magintude beyond the audio band, through the cable for 24 to 72 hours. I think one of the assumptions is that the free el... | |
7500 for USED cables? Are they joking? Thanks Bishopwill for a little support. I have been an AudioGon member for some time. I too have been frustrated by the apparent attitude that some threads have. I finally stopped coming to these formus for probably more than a year because discus... | |
7500 for USED cables? Are they joking? Can we trust Northwestern U? Link to recent auditory testing:http://www.stereophile.com/shownews.cgi?1183 | |
7500 for USED cables? Are they joking? I don’t think we are communicating, but at least we can discuss this rationally and agreeing we disagree is certainly a valid outcome – nice change. I was trained to be a scientist. I do believe in repeatable, documentable processes. What I was tr... | |
7500 for USED cables? Are they joking? Sean, I have been a musician in a hobby sense for 25 years although I have played in groups, jazz band, etc. I play guitar. I have been trained to be an Electrical Engineer, but I currently design and build computer networks. Part of my training i... | |
7500 for USED cables? Are they joking? Bomarc, how can you prove something subjective? Measurement is objective. Each person on this planet has differences in their inner/outer ear "configuration" which implies no two people hear exactly the same. What has been shown recently is the ol... | |
7500 for USED cables? Are they joking? Sean, Dan A's CAST system averts the issue to a large degree by converting what is mainly a voltage transmission line into a current transmission line. The thinking is running a low voltage through a cable is prone to interaction/interference whil... | |
7500 for USED cables? Are they joking? Well, science doesn't understand everything, or claim to know everything. Those who say if I can’t measure it, it doesn’t exist are walking on thin ice. You do the best you can with the tools you have. There have been many, many instances in histo... | |
7500 for USED cables? Are they joking? Examine any hobby and you will see extremes. Some of the Pros are starting to come around. While they're not about to install the mega-buck wire, some are considering the mid-stream stuff, from a very recent TAS or Stereophile issue. My rule is, i... | |
Safe audiogon transactions; lowering the bar. I do most transactions COD or with Paypal. That eases the lost during shipment issue. Paypal in particular offers enhanced "blind" transaction features, and can do so since they have access to both parties credit cards/checking accounts. See their... |
