| Can a Mini-XLR digital cable be true 110 ohm? I knew this question posed a condition that was a niche within a niche. Got my nerve up to try it again. Worst thing I could do was ruin another $20 connector. This time with some magnification and some good advice my soldering succeeded. And whil... | |
| Doubling a Set of Speaker Cables Within the next week I will be able to try another speaker cable configuration. As I stated above my cables are Clear Day solid silver, called double shotgun cables. Up till now all of my 6-ft cables are identical. I have purchased here on audiogo... | |
| Doubling a Set of Speaker Cables I have done a lot of experimenting with speaker cables in my system and in every case I have found running two sets of speaker wires improves sound noticeably. I have tried copper bar jumpers that come with speakers, copper wire jumpers, and silve... | |
| Magico A1 vs KEF Reference 1 (META) vs KEF LS50 + KEF KC62 As someone who has been interested in the Kef Reference 1, I was of course attracted to this thread. With a 9x12 listening room I also have no choice but to put my speakers close to the rear wall. About 1 ft away. Curious if anyone has any first h... | |
| What speaker do you passionately want to demo? About 10 posts up I mentioned how I would love to hear and almost certainly by a set of KEF Reference 201/2 speakers but I've given up on ever finding a set. Now I see that less than 2 months ago a pair that looked like new in Cherry finish inclu... | |
| Unplug or ride out the storm? Well I think I will just continue to unplug. On the bright side, today's thunderstorms don't get here till about 5:30 p.m........Ugh | |
| Speaker brands known to use first class internal components Being obsessive usually ruins the pleasures of life.I do get your point but I'm glad nobody convinced Louis Pasteur of of this when he was developing a cure for rabies which up till then was always fatal. Or convinced Thomas Edison to quit obsessi... | |
| Speaker brands known to use first class internal components "I would hate to buy a pair of speakers that I absolutely love and are totally worth the money to me based on their sound and look, but I'd be devastated if I found out the internal parts weren't high quality."Ugh.I didn't see this quote anywhere ... | |
| Speaker brands known to use first class internal components I’d rather have a loudspeaker that’s well designed with run of the mill components than a less well designed loudspeaker with state of the art components.I definitely agree with this. As much as I’m concerned about internals, it would be even wors... | |
| Cullen Cable Patrick did get back with me and everything's fine. He's just real busy. With that, I ordered a couple more power cables | |
| Cullen Cable A couple of months ago I ordered my first Cullen cable, a crossover PC. At about the 3 week point I emailed him for an update and he got back with me right away, said I'd have them in a few days and that did happen. About four and a half weeks ago... | |
| What speaker do you passionately want to demo? Kef 201/2 although I give up on ever finding a set of pre-owned ones. They must be great because those who have them never seem to put them up for saleKef Reference 1Canton Reference 9kDali Epicon 2 | |
| Canton Reference 9k opinions https://www.audioaficionado.org/forumdisplay.php?f=150https://www.avsforum.com/threads/canton-owners-club.802309/These seem to be a good resources for information on Canton speakers. Thought I would share them. Hope that doesn’t break any rules here | |
| Canton Reference 9k opinions I know the Kef Reference 1 is a great speaker and I don't doubt for one minute it was far better than you're Canton 9.2 DC. However comparing specs between the 9.2 DC and the Reference 9k shows that the 9k is larger in all directions, especially t... | |
| Canton Reference 9k opinions Go figure indeed. I’m sure the Kef Ref 1 that he refers to is terrific. It’s a speaker I have considered in the past but at twice the cost of the Reference 9k (plus $1,000) that pushes it into pre-owned range price wise. Beauty of the Canton is at... |
