What use to burn in power cords?
Put a new power cord in your power amp and leave it on for 3 days. Then the PC is 99.9% burned-in and the sound won't get better after that. Alex/WTA  
High End System Building. How important is the matching, cabling and room? Thoughts ?
calvinj OP @mihorn nice sound I can hear it some through your clip. I love the system I have. Listening preferences play a part as well.  I got it. I was just saying, for your room, you could put a plug (sound-wave guide) on speaker drivers to... 
High End System Building. How important is the matching, cabling and room? Thoughts ?
calvinj OP @mihorn. The system you have should also,have the sound signature you want as well. Equipment with a warmer sound signature ain’t gonna work for me regardless of set up. I like a small amount of warmth and a bit more detail.  I have... 
High End System Building. How important is the matching, cabling and room? Thoughts ?
calvinj OP @mihorn  i have a difficult room. High ceilings. My speakers can only be so far apart. I have a window to the left.  That's why the sound must sent to the listener rather than send to walls, floor and the ceiling. **80% left side of... 
High End System Building. How important is the matching, cabling and room? Thoughts ?
The room acoustic matters a lot because the speaker cone is angled and sending sounds to walls rather than to the listener. Change the direction of sounds to the listener (easy to do). Then the room acoustic doesn't matter much. Alex/WTA  
Is it important to long demo or own HIGH END gear to have a fair accurate view about it?
One should listen Youtube videos of live recordings before demo any audio equipment. All audio equipment are unnatural sound and human ears trick us always. That’s why even seasoned audiophiles can’t be confident about an audio sound and they keep... 
Logical next step from Legacy Signature SEs? Around $15K...
cleeds YT is lossy audio and whenever I’ve used it as a source in my main system it sounds like it. I think it’s useless That is the character of your system. In my system, I am satisfied with YT SQ. Below is sound comparison of Flac vs. YT in ...

soix @mihorn Youre kidding, right? Exactly what are we to take from some crappy YouTube recording? It has no credibility or purpose. This is not Reddit. Good song though — I’ll give you that. No. I am not kidding. Which part of my post is kidd...

OP What would be some of the options, where I guess, I will lose out on the bottom end, but gain midrange and high end? Check out Wavetouch Antero speaker. It is in your budget. Here’s Antero in action. Alex/WTA  
What would your "perfect speaker" sound like.
The perfect speaker will sound like the sound of original music. People have a wrong expectation that their system will sound close to the original music sound after expensive upgrades. However, no one has been succeed it and all speakers in the w... 
Evaluating Equipment-induced EMI noise in one’s audio system
Dear OP,  Do you think the irritating noise from the left speaker in below video has anything to do with EMI noise? Alex/WTA  
What was the best (most impactful) piece of new equipment to hit the market in 2023?
1st true natural sound power cable and speaker in the audio history. Alex/WTA Wavetouch audio  
Big speakers, are they really the best way to get great sound?
toddalin You killed all the ambience of the room. Sounds "dead" even compared to the original with no room ambience. Your clocks don’t sound "natural." Let’s compare apples to apples. Make your recordings in a 5,000 cubic foot room. My shop i... 
Big speakers, are they really the best way to get great sound?
toddalin No, you purposely choose a speaker that sounds bad at its extremes and clean those up a bit, greatly reducing the volume in the process, and also killing it's liveliness. My system does not sound like that! It's called "setting up a st...
