| Future of cables! Its not what I think, its what I know. What I know is it doesn’t matter. Doesn’t matter to the point not even wasting my time to read the article. Because it is a waste of time. There you go again Miller, dissing science. Come on, man! (Intended ... | |
| Shorten speaker cable Its a professional project only if you care about resale. If these are "yours" for keeps then its a classic DIY. Unlike manufacturers who have to make everything for audiophools, with DIY the only one you have to please is yourself. This means you... | |
| Sorbothane record weight? Reflex record clamps are universal. They use a collet that holds the spindle whether threaded spindle or smooth. You have a spindle? You can use a record clamp. | |
| Synergistic Research AC Master Coupler on all Components including Subs Over-Kill 1. No. Not at all. Given the level of your associated components the Master Coupler is entry level. Full disclosure, I reject the notion of there being any such thing as overkill. You could put a $10k SR cord in there and be blown away. So even th... | |

| If I have good local shops available, should I restrict my purchasing? If you're in the zone where finding anything you might actually want locally is even possible, I can only envy you. You can see it, touch it, hear it, and most importantly try it out at home. If you can, that is totally the way to go. That's what ... | |
| Technics SB 5000A Linear Phase Speaker FUSE question . All the fuse does is protect the tweeter. You can also protect the tweeter by not overdriving it. So don't do that and you will be fine. If you want to know how loud is safe, simply play one that does have a fuse real loud. At least as loud as you... | |
| Suspended cables The "reasoning" involved is irrelevant. Literally does not matter. If the cables are off the floor like you say then it matters even less. No cable that short is gonna be damaged just by running like that. Now if you trip over it, different story.... | |
| Speaker cable recommendations in my budget tochsii- How would I make my own? Well first you would let someone sell you on the idea this is something worth doing. Then you would let someone sell you on the idea they know what materials and construction will be best for your budget and sonic... | |
