| A good start on selecting cables? What's "wrong" with your sound that you'd like to improve? I'd suspect that it's unlikely that one set of cables would be the best for all of your speaker options.You might try www.thecableco.com and use their exchange program to try different thi... | |
| Do Interconnects need to "warm up"? Wolf_garcia - How do you know it was the cold temperatures and not the shielding that made the difference in sound. I'd suggest pulling the plug on the freezer all together to find out. Maybe dorm refrigerators will become an audio tweek. | |
| Audyssey MultiEQ I have seen that page before, but really hadn't considered doing it. I might have to give it a try. | |
| Audyssey MultiEQ My reciever is only one model year out of date, so maybe I'll see if there are any firmware updates for it.I really don't think it would make a significant difference overall with the final result as I have always adjusted the subwoofer volume to ... | |
| Best McIntosh Tap for Dynaudio Confid 5 Speakers Are you worried about damage from the 2 ohm tap? It seems that trying the two options would be the way to go otherwise. | |
| Power Conditioner and Pandora Radio This morning I reconnected everything so that all power cords go through the conditioner and the internet/phone modem signal is also going through the conditioner but not on a line with a splitter. The internet speed, as checked on Cnet, hasn't ch... | |
| Do Interconnects need to "warm up"? Audiofeil - I would take what Dave_b to mean that silver is not the most musical conductor material all other things being equal. While this may be a difficult claim to make since it's unlikely to find identical cables, your response about geometr... | |
| Power Conditioner and Pandora Radio Riley804 was kind enough to email me with more details about what is going on. At this point the issues have been minor and not significant enough to warrant installing a dedicated line, but I do understand that it would be the best possible confi... | |
| Do Interconnects need to "warm up"? I always try to let my system warm up for an hour or so when people come over to listen. Rather I'm there or not for the warm up, the system always sounds better.I would expect that the speakers are the main component that benefit from a warm up, ... | |
| Do Interconnects need to "warm up"? Use another set of interconnects for a warm up and then switch to the cold interconnects and see if the system sounds "cold." It shouldn't matter what interconnect you use so I'm sure you have something that would work. | |
| Best CD player under $25000. I think you meant 25,000 or worse. | |
| Martin Logan Dynamo 700 vs. REL T5 I don't consider my listening room small because it has a very high ceiling, but the 10 inch Dynamo 700 has more than enough for home theater. I have the volume on it turned most of the way down and can still make things move at the appropriate ti... | |
| Martin Logan Dynamo 700 vs. REL T5 Thanks, I'll try to look for it if I get a chance. With a baby due any day, or minute, my chances to get out are very limited.I did call a Magnolia Hi Fi that's close enough for my friend to stop by for a listen and confirmed that they have both s... | |
| Why is 2 Channel better than multi-channel? Kr4 - Agreed. I started thinking about a bunch of different things while typing my tongue in cheek reply. It's difficult to find an analogy that applies across the board. | |
| Why is 2 Channel better than multi-channel? "Again, a grossly simplified analogy but, fwiw, you can hear what is behind you but you cannot see without turning your head." - Kr4In the spirit of taking things too far...If someone turns a lamp on behind you can generally see the light that com... |
