| Directional wires/cables ....and checked the equipment ground contact of the outlet for a minimum of 4 ounces of contact pull out holding contact pressure. They had a device they plugged into the outlet that had a mechanical pointer that indicated the pulling out resista... | |
| Directional wires/cables @jea48 I was in charge of wiring the power to feed MRI Rooms, Cat Scan rooms, Countless numbers of X-Ray Rooms. I believe that is more in lines with roughing in the electrical to the rooms, but more in line with this thread, I am curious if ... | |
| The Audio Science Review (ASR) approach to reviewing wines. @hilde45 I had a long and bitter debate with Ethan Winer about this. My position is that there may be things heard which cannot be measured because the brain and perception are way WAY beyond our understanding at this point in our scientif... | |
| Directional wires/cables Okay, I was kinda done with this thread, but in response to this: Can’t happen... The energy travels at near the speed of light. It’s at the light bulb the instant the contact closure completes the circuit... It’s that Fast! Ponder this: You a... | |
| Vibration control. Tube equipment. What's the best way to do it ? Mpingo is African Blackwood I see that is the same stuff that clarinets and oboes are made from. Must have some "good vibrations" going on. | |

| A not sarcastic question for the power conditioner/upgraded power cord folks my system is down for maintenance. What?! That is considered an essential service. You need to legislate a back to work order. | |
| Vibration control. Tube equipment. What's the best way to do it ? Ebony or Brazilian Rosewood isolation platforms anyone ? I have read glowing reports of Shun Mook Mpingo dots, which is African ebony I believe, just on tops of speakers, and on walls. Haven’t tried it yet. Here is Jeff from High Water Sound a... | |
| Vibration control. Tube equipment. What's the best way to do it ? Maybe one day I'll try these Ansuz Darkz. It certainly seems ridiculous to put $3000 worth of footers under a $3000 component, but under a $30,000 CH Precision pre or amp or an Antipodes Oladra I could justify it. | |
| Vibration control. Tube equipment. What's the best way to do it ? I am a believer in draining away resonances from the components- and any component, not just tube amps, speakers included, as opposed to attempting to "absorb" it, or convert the resonances into heat. This is the approach Live Vibe takes. The way... | |
| Antipodes K22 vs Innuos Pulsar @jayrossi13 I would have posted earlier, but it took me quite a while to browse through all the fantastic gear you have/had in your systems. Very nice! The Innuos Sense software is fantastic, I actually like the search capabilities much better... | |
| Antipodes K22 vs Innuos Pulsar @verdantaudio I'm going to dig a little into this and hope you could fill in a few gaps. I would love to compare many of these permutations and wish I lived closer to your location. Appreciate your posting here as always! - I would state 10% of th... | |
| Getting a Divorce and can now buy floor standing speakers Seems I hit a nerve. Nah, we just have nothing better to do. Which Luxman do you have? | |

| Directional wires/cables Much simpler to try both directions yourself than to try to understand the elusive reasons why Absolutely @kennyc Some of us just like to hurt our brains every once in a while. I recall reading that Jay, the proprietor of Audio Bacon websit... |
