| Don't read you'll be sorry Ok, so I got the speaker cables yesterday, hooked them up and was playing some classic vinyl recordings when my wife came home for dinner. I didnt mention the change in cables. We sat down to dinner, with the music playing. Part way through dinner... | |
| Don't read you'll be sorry Sounds like a reasonable story to me. Im sure chinese factories are not particular about who they sell to or what they sell. Looks like the real thing, so why would he know different except for the price. I should get my order in a couple of days,... | |
| Where would you go after Wilson WP7? Get a turntable and some vinyl | |
| Don't read you'll be sorry So we have a pair of supposed k2 cables that were wired backwards from TyCobb and PBM has a set that have the right size conductors, but with Rockefeller 3 sheathing and silver coating on copper wire that sound pretty good in his system, but not a... | |
| Don't read you'll be sorry Tycobb,Sounds like more bs from you. Really, biwire interconnects? new one on me. And the interconnects were Rockefeller 3, a silver coated speaker cable? And how were they wired backwards? most interconnects have a hot and ground? Did your music ... | |
| Does mfg's name/model affect your opinion of sound If there is any science to our hobby, and a designer is looking to address any deficiencies he feels are there, then you would think that components from a single manufacturer would have a similar sound, a "house sound" if you will. If they all so... | |
| Don't read you'll be sorry PBN,I dont know how to contact you off this forum to discuss your cables. Let me know.Peter | |
| Don't read you'll be sorry pbn,I am ordering the biwire version just for my own satisfaction. Willing to take the $400 gamble. God knows Ive thrown away more than that over the years on sillier things. Might end up buying yours anyway later for my Home Theatre or den system... | |
| Don't read you'll be sorry Of course, I am not sure that K2 is actually solid silver either. The description on Audioquest's website is a little vague, calling it perfect surface silver. Dont know if that means the cable has a perfect silver surface, or if the surface of th... | |
| Rethinking my system: Your ideas are appreciated With the size of your room, you really need something bigger to load the room if you are looking for fullness instead of pinpoint imaging. At your budget, I would recommend the PSB Golds. You then might need more power to do the speakers justice i... | |
| Upgrade From Systemdek IVe Your next step is probably to get a better cartridge than the x3 you are using now. that will probably make the most noticeable difference in your sound for the least expenditure. | |
| Don't read you'll be sorry PBN,I take it the cables you have are single wire. I was really looking for biwire. but I have another question. How did you determine that the wire is silver coated? did you scrape off some silver to expose copper?this whole thread makes me quest... | |
| Don't read you'll be sorry "If you want to try them $ 380 would get them shipped to you :-)"All chopped up like that?! I am intrigued by the silver coating on solid copper cable. Do you know of any manufacturer that uses that system? | |
| Why does your turntable sound the way it does. If the sole result of my original post is to raise more questions, or direct areas of inquiry, then it has performed its purpose. I dont think there is one answer to the question, but thinking through many options to their logical conclusions is a... | |
| Don't read you'll be sorry PBNHow did you determine which plugs went into which inputs on the speaker end of the biwire cables. Supposedly, if they are reversed, where the high frequency ends went into the woofer inputs, you would get a lighter bass and alternatively, if th... |
