| DO CABLES REALLY MATTER? @geoffkait Having said that, just going on the photos of the Graphene Gold Rush Tonearm cables, I want some. Uh, Geoff, they do look cool but how are you going to hook them up to the walkman? | |
| Aftermarket Fuses And for cradle type fuse holders, you can take a small orthodontic rubber band and wrap around the top of the holder at each end to apply a little pressure to the contacts. You can also wrap a piece of Teflon tape around the glass body to dampen ... | |
| Aftermarket Fuses @audiolabyrinth What state of the art cable's have you tried? do you own any state of the art cable's? Not sure, I have owned multiple cables retailing for over $1K each and some over $2K. There are always more expensive cables - who is the jud... | |
| Music Server Recommendation Recently received my Antipodes DX back with Gen 3 upgrade and it sounds great to me. As previously, it displays none of the electronic haze/glare/thinness I have sometimes heard through other digital sources or players. To further enhance things... | |
| Aftermarket Fuses @oregonpapa @uberwaltz The knife cuts both ways, which is why this issue will never be sorted out. You are both correct, folks who believe the science will not support any change in sonics, or any perceivable change in sonics, related to fuses, wi... | |
| Aftermarket Fuses @oregonpapa If anyone can't hear the difference, then I'd be questioning one of two things ... either the system, or the ears. Maybe both.Right out of the playbook. You might want to consider not questioning what others do or don't hear. | |
| Aftermarket Fuses @jafreeman really, wtf?Wolf isn’t calling you or anyone else names (well ok, maybe Geoff sometimes), so why resort to that? He is consistent in his opinions and provides another side to the discussion.There are many of us here with pretty good sys... | |
| DO CABLES REALLY MATTER? @ricred1 the rest of your post that I agree with 100%....It's actually pretty simple...if you hear a difference with cables that you prefer than purchase them. If you don't hear a difference or you hear a difference that's not to your liking, don... | |
| Have Passive Preamps Finally Come of Age? @atmasphere FWIW dept: our MP-3 preamp can be ordered as a balanced tube buffer with no active gain stage. That is interesting Ralph, I wish I had heard the no-gain version back when - I may not have sold my MP-3. Now I have a great sounding SS ... | |
| DO CABLES REALLY MATTER? @ricred1 "We" make audio too complicated.I agree with you, but if too many agree it will suck the fun out of these ridiculous threads.... | |
| DO CABLES REALLY MATTER? When I zipped the Royal Gorge I had a high level of confidence in the cable but somewhat less confidence in the teenager that hooked up my harness....so I watched his work closely. Thankfully, he was good at his job! | |
| Talk but not walk? @michaelgreenaudio Regardless of anyone's opinions about the changes, you guys are fortunate to have someone like Tammy, and the Agon staff, looking out for you.+1Good leaders don't let ego or fear stand in the way of correcting mistakes or maki... | |
| DO CABLES REALLY MATTER? The main reason cables matter is to promote the eristical behavior of audiophiles. | |
| Talk but not walk? Just because it looks strange is no reason to assume it will sound good.Maybe it will sound strange.The Wizard of Oz was no wizard at all.Gandolf on the other hand......http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-7M4frMcLFUI/VMe6K2zm-LI/AAAAAAAAALo/THJrf1gS57M/s160... | |
| Class D Ncore Atsah in the house Not all that many others have done much with the stock NC1200 amplifier module. David Reich at Theta used a LPS for his Prometheus monos and I believe Bel Canto designed buffers for the Black amps and also for amps they use with the much less exp... |
