Talk but not walk?
Trelja,It was very touching  how gk pined for me when I was not posting for awhile.   He can't be all bad.

Also car speakers are typically surface mounted which limits ability to do imaging the way home setups can.  Not to mention the tweeters mounted far away from the woofs which totally eliminates any chance of decent imaging.  Then the panels and su...

I doubt even properly oriented, bees wax-stuffed, graphene-lined fuses with TC shmeared all over it can help that dude.  But its worth a try!

But out of the many thousands of recording I have on vinyl. tape, cd etc there is likely only a double handfull that I consider to be truly terrible. Lets say 0.1% total?Now maybe I am missing something here but WHY should I try to "fix" my system...

Case closed.   Toot! Toot! 
Ownership and Review of a pair of Ohm Super Sound Cylinder
Have larger Ohm 5s with 12" driver and smaller 100s with 8" driver.Positioning considerations are similar to most modern speakers that image well. You always want drivers a couple feet away from wall to avoid early reflections for best results. Op...

fsonicsmith,Take it from one with much experience. Don’t bother responding to Geoffkait if you want to actually get anywhere. Everything is a joke to him. He is like the pied piper of Audiogon. You will get nowhere with him. He might humor you fro... 
German Physiks - Listening Impressions Wanted
Phusis there are some tube amps I like and others I find too limited. The ones I like tend to be able to do well with electronic as well as acoustic music. Of course I could say the same about SS amps. I do use a tube pre-amp (Audio Research sp16)...

They should sing pretty well with those PS audio 350w/ch amps.  Enjoy! 
Ownership and Review of a pair of Ohm Super Sound Cylinder
I don’t know what drivers are used, but having owned OHM Walsh speakers now since 1982, I can say they they seem virtually indestructible  and never show any sign of strain or being over driven. More so than any other comparable speaker I have own...

Mchael Green,You are right. Not limited to tweaks by any stretch. Esoteric or otherwise.People can buy whatever they want for whatever reason they want, real or imagined. The only thing that really matters is what matters to each in the end.   Man... 
Talk but not walk?
In some cases, like many expensive esoteric tweaks, there is little or no empirical information offered by anyone, including vendors. Why should people try that? I get it that those offered free or discounted product to try will be more inclined. ... 
Talk but not walk?
I think most folks on a site like this who are serious about getting good sound listen carefully to everything,  read up on things, and their room at home is the only  "real empirical testing ground" available.  Once the tests are successful and m... 
Can a power cord increase the resolution of an Class D (SMPS) amp by more than 5% ?
Above I said:The electrons that move back and forth at certain frequencies (as determined by current voltage and resistance) in an AC current as a result of the EM wave does.   In that post I meant to say The electrons that move back and for... 
Can a power cord increase the resolution of an Class D (SMPS) amp by more than 5% ?
As I understand it, the EM wave itself does not produce sound directly.   The electrons that move back and forth at certain frequencies (as determined by current voltage and resistance) in an AC current as a result of the EM wave does.
