| Nordost Red Dawn "Flatline" interconnect Want to replace with a more musical sounding IC. Why not try the Belden 8402 mentioned/recommended by Jeff Day at Positive Feedback and on his Blog: jeffplace.me. He, me, and many other Audiogonners switched out our expensive interconnects for these with great success. Cost about $80.00 terminat... | |
| Neutral electronics are a farce... Thanks Dracule1For pointing out there is no such thing as "neutral" in the recording/listening chain. Any musician like you, or myself, or any recording/sound engineer can tell you that...how do you measure neutral? What are the standards utilized... | |
| Harbeth 40.1 - Need some tips on placement from current owners. Oh my, congratulations Grannyring, I'm so happy for you! One of my brothers own the Harbeth SHL-5s.

| Granny ring, Jetrexpro, all Thanks Jet for that report. So far I'm using the WE10ga as power cord from wall with Oyaide R-1 and plate set-up to a Cable Pro power strip with no limiting factors. My Coincident Dynamo 34SE is Connected to the Cable Pro via WE10ga. The Transport... | |
| Granny ring, Jetrexpro, all Grannyring, Jet,hear you. Likely Day spends some time here. I know he was impressed by your work; I'm positive he is also pressed for time and deadlines. Perhaps that is why Day can not experiment to umpteenth degree and sometimes misses out; but ... | |
| Granny ring, Jetrexpro, all A poster on Jeff Day Blog has apparently located a 1,000 foot reel of WE16ga wire. I believe he is going to sell some to folks who want/need more of the WE16ga. Best, Rob | |
| With $20,000 in your hand, what speaker would you Tannoy Westminster Royals or Volti. | |
| Infinity Prelude MTS repairs I also own the Infinity Prelude Compositions still in real good shape. I like these speakers a lot; but I will likely never buy another Infinity product. I feel they ruined this speaker's great potential with the next incarnation and you are right... | |
| Granny ring, Jetrexpro, all Grannyring, Jet, why not write Jeff Day about your new findings with the various different WE gauge, terminations such as Canare f10 and shielding, etc. I believe Jeff and many of his blog reader's including Shirokazu Yazaki-san would be immensely... | |
| Amps which are Great, but either Unknown or Underpriced Many good amps listed. I'll add Coincident Dynamo 34SE. Top notch and cost effective if you pair with high efficiency speakers. | |

| Granny ring, Jetrexpro, all Hi Grannyring,thanks for the update. I'm going to do same, see how it does in my system. I really like the WE10ga as power cord. Also thanks for the Canare suggestion. Early on Yazaki-san also recommend the Canare. Recently my brother got to compa... | |
| Power cords at ridiculous prices? pops,agree with you...just getting a lay of the land...what opinions out there; and I can do as you said with Western Electric WE10ga stranded tinned copper terminated with Furutech f11 for about $100 total. Amazing! Best, Rob | |
