"Krell" is a buzzword Corn F.B. is right this is like dumping a bucket of chum in shark infested waters.....bloodlust. I have never heard/owned a Krell but will make the observation that the current Stereophile recommended list has 3 Krell amps rated class A, and it se... | |
Equipment Rack Placement Corn F.B. no doubt your set-up is best if room permits and exta IC cost not objectionable. However I think in practice not many audiophiles take the trouble to do it because you very rarely see 20ft ICs for sale at Audiogon. | |
WAF (Wife Acceptance Factor)and Speakers One thing to keep in mind is your speakers will have no resale value with this modifacation. As far as effect on sound I think you will most likely make it worse than stock grill cloth.......unless these are cheap disposable speakers I would be ve... | |
Equipment Rack Placement Conventional wisdom is amp between speakers with long ICs going to rack on side wall. But if you look at pictures of high end audio shows of room set-ups many have rack between speakers wich are moved far out into room. My set-up is rack between s... | |

SunfireTheater Grand ??? Sean, not to change the subject but where did you get the Mobile Spec cables Issabre is raving about, do they really cost $15 a pair? No info on internet, I believe you said in past posts you like Geortz cables, are these Mobile Spec really as goo... | |
MISSING THE POINT? The best way to find new music is on large music store sites like Amazon.com Go to a CD you like and find what other people who bought that CD bought, and see lists of other suggested groups you would like. Every CD has real audio samples and each... | |
Why do digital cables sound different? It all boils down to this, all cables distort/degrade/alter the original signal. The best cable is no cable. The best cables, regardless if they are cheap or expensive, are the ones that transport the signal with the least distortion. It seems sil... | |
