| Useful $20 gadget alert TWo things I notice for best results:1) use a FM frequency away from any stations you might want to listen to also with teh device on in that it can cause interference on frequencies adjacent to one used.2) Be sure to match levels for best sou... | |
| Ohm Walsh Micro Talls: who's actually heard 'em? I've seen those on Ebay. VEry cool. | |
| Ohm Walsh Micro Talls: who's actually heard 'em? frazeur good point. I’d expect cabinet interactions of Walsh style drivers (and tweeters mounted essentially in total isolation from cabinet) to be much lesser than in most cases where drivers are mounted and coupled directly to cabinets.

| Synergistic Red Fuse ... That would be interesting. Tried google search and came up empty.One benefit would be anything done differently is a unique feature and helps differentiate one product or product line from another. Also I’m sure not all breakers are created equal ... | |

| Boulder monoblock 2150 I’ve heard Boulder amps once, with larger very nice Avalon speakers.It had a unique intriguing midrange detail and presence, like some ARC and VAC and Atmasphere amps I’ve heard. My audition was short so just an initial impression.I don’t know wha... | |
| Boulder monoblock 2150 Agree.It is interesting where these things can lead though....Audiophiles tend to be well educated and a pretty level headed bunch overall I think. Except for when it comes time to obsess over sound quality. ;^) Not an easy thing to find so... | |

So you can judge each on paper or do measurements but absolutely cannot judge how one sounds exactly without the other. Only the two together and... | |
| Boulder monoblock 2150 Even seen the palace of a Russian Czar or other European King or royal? Or the penthouse of certain buildings even in NYC?This stuff would fit in well there though if it were me I would invest in improving the acoustics of those huge echoing exoti... | |
| Synergistic Red Fuse ... Jafree enjoy your stuff but don’t forget that opinion is neither fact nor news and definitely not universally accepted truth about any particular fuse product.For example its been pointed out multiple times by others how merely changing or reseati... | |

| Audiophile fuses - Synergistic Black fuses vs the còmpetition Also audio mans response was to call the critics ignorant rather than present info to defend his assertion about the fuse tolerance. Wrong! He should be taken to task accordingly as well for that. | |
| Audiophile fuses - Synergistic Black fuses vs the còmpetition well in my defense I did not attack the poster rather challenged what was asserted which was not personal opinion all are entitled to but specific metrics cited. There is a lot of made up stuff presented as fact that goes around confusing people. ... | |
| Audiophile fuses - Synergistic Black fuses vs the còmpetition Dkcockrum. Those were in self defense perhaps which is different. Some people make a habit of attacking people When challenged on an issue and bully tactics cannot be tolerated ever. It’s an epidemic in this country these days it seems. |
