| Warm Interconnect.... Agree with Ssglx, heimdall all the way. You can read my older posts about it, simply amazing cable - it gives very, very appealing midrange bloom,, and still maintains enough treble & everything else.. Read the post and went straight to musicd... | |
| power cable length importance ALL those things does not matter Hifihvn! I have a dedicated hifi socket with a special AWG14 hifi power cable (shielded, stranded) routed - total 60 feet! And I have ordinary socket nearby, same AWG14, good old solid copper wire - exept that ther... | |
| Are Cables Better Than High Grade Speaker Wire? it depends on what system you have , once I had stereo, all NAD system with, total cost msrp near $2000. There was no difference between borrowed hi-end cables, and 1 level cables from well known manufacturer (ie AQ), or cheap speaker cable from H... | |
| NORODST BRAHMA comment I have made comparisons between Nordost Brahma and Kimber PK10 On a Focal Utopia/Ayre/Esoteric based system. Cables were switched on DAC. To my taste Brahma was little too bright in that system, while PK10 brought some darkness, and instruments so... | |
| will different lengths affect sound It funny to read all those comments about the issue. Especially on A'gon. Come on its not a HomeCinema forum! When I was picking speaker cables for my system, I also experiemented with different lenghts.. there was a PROFOUND difference between 4m... | |
| Denon DL-103R cartridge update Mine is also imbalanced, left 0,4 and right 0,37 mV (compare this to official numbers : 0,3 Mv !! - some 33% more output!). And I am positive I can hear this (slight music shift to the left). Still this is minor problem, because music just pops ou... | |
| The OFFICAL Apple TV thread Apple Lossless (like other lossless) is somewhat zipped wav/aiff, so when you play, program is unzipping and playing at the same time, thus it DOES sound different compared WAV/AIFF. I have compared WAV to APPLE LOSSLESS and WAV was better. I have... | |
| Budget MC Cartridge and Synergy I am using Denon DL103 with Rega RB600 arm on Rega P25 with Graham Slee AMP3+SPU-1 phonostage with very very good results. Denon is my go-to artidge, you can find it for $150, so you have $350 already to invest to step-up like Bobs SUT and instant... | |
| Where do I make the long run IC or speaker cable? When switching in my own sytem, I was looking not only at brands, but also lengths, 2x2.5 m SC sound different compared to 2x4m and 0.5m IC differs from 1m and so on.I would keep IC short (2x1m), and get LOWER GAUGE LONGER SPEAKER CABLES. Typicall... | |
| Benz Wood SL Very lean from the start Ksl822, I do not know about Wood but my Glider turned 180 degrees to better in sound quality when climbed over mysterious 40 hour mark. So just keep spinning.You did not made a mistake, I did a mistake getting Glider instead of Wood. Wood is consi... | |
| best cartridge under $500 Jhorsh, if you want to have very good quality MC sound with INEXPENSIVE Denon DL103, you MUST build your SYSTEM around it, not vise versa. There is a possibility that accidentaly Denon will sound good, but thats a lottery. The hard work you do set... | |
| Entry into HiFi get a manley stingray 1 (with triode switch) while you can, they are bargain right now, at around $1200-$1400, once this all old stock gone - you have to pay $3000 for the Stingray 2 . This is a true made in america diamond in tube amps. Speakers,... | |
| Are there any constants in speaker wire designs? Kijanki, when talking about cables, I have also came across this: do two cables (branded, and a copy of it) which have identical L R C spec. will sound the same? I do not reject the idea that this only speculiation between these numbers, and their... | |
| Are there any constants in speaker wire designs? PaperW8, not so long ago I was doing shootout of several power cords. When I put Kimber PK14 on a my DAC, all the music suddenly became sort of IN FOCUS. I can not find a better word to describe this. So it is not BS. And there is no equipment to ... | |
| Are there any constants in speaker wire designs? Kijanki, what Nordost cable line you are refering to? I know very well Nordost Heimdal IC and Nordost Frey IC, & Nordost middle line SC I can honestly say that your adjectives does not belong to Nordost.Heimdal, for instance, will give lots of... |
