I like my system flat, no tone controls, no eq..........what is your preference, and why.
prof, yes, I should have worded it differently ( which I corrected later in the thread, as pointed out by Doug S. ). Although I have measured my room with a RS meter / test tone discs, I cannot claim my room is ruler flat, but it is excellent, spe... 
New Sonus Faber Electa Amator 3...anybody heard these yet?
I lived with Extremas ( with Kef B 139 ) for a year ( on loan to me from a friend ). Mated them with a modified Crown Studio Reference I owned. " Awesome " is all I can say. Enjoy ! MrD. 
Has anyone tried these stunning new CPT power cord?
About 10 days ago I received my 3 power cords, and I must say, they are very good. I believe the company that makes them is called Viborg Audio. Mark and Lynn were quite grateful, for my business and my patience. The correspondence between them an... 
Nuforce STA200
Jetter, I believe you are speaking of the magnet ( ferrite choke ). Look up " what are the bumps at the end of computer cables ", as you will get your answer. These are sold everywhere, and have been for ages, in different sizes, by many manufactu...

The amp takes well to an upgraded power cord. Enjoy ! MrD. 
Which SR Blue or black Fuse
Fuses, fuse holders and the additional wiring ( or circuit board traces ), impair the sq, but, for the protection of the piece of equipment, it is there. One comment I always appreciated was by Bill Lowe of AQ.    " To Due Less Harm ". Better fuse... 
A Short History of two favorite words....
I am a tweaker and will try anything, and, have tried many many things. Snake oil and I are pretty close. Enjoy! MrD.

Why are some people so defensive about using eq or tone controls ? If your ears require it, whether it be for room acoustics or recording enhancement, so be it. No judgement here, at least that was my purpose of starting this thread. It is ALL goo...

Ron17, I was prompted to start this thread because of the viper experience on WC’s amplifier / speaker thread, as you know quite well. As I have said so many times, and yes it has become repetitive by me : anything we audio folks need to do ( whet... 
Which SR Blue or black Fuse
He is truly unbelievable, this kosst person. He does not have a life, to keep coming on these posts making claims that we all are " crazy ". I said months ago, somewhere, that his posts are laughable and entertaining. Thank you kosst, for this. Al... 
Skeptic or just plain hard headed
Over on the amp/preamp threads, under the Ramtubes, who would like to ask a designer some questions, there was talk by me about amplifier warm up. I feel it is very god reading by Roger Madjeski. Enjoy ! MrD.

Yay ! Another believer and convert. Awesome. And, by using his ears and listening. Enjoy ! MrD. 
Does anyone care to ask an amplifier designer a technical question? My door is open.
Krelldreams, I use an Luminous Axiom II, Walker Mod, 3 rca in, 2 rca out, with remote, and I feel it does not have a sound of it's own. $1249. retail. Tim Stinson from Luminous spent a lot of time with me on the phone, and I could not be happier. ...

Tomic, the ADS L 2030 was ( likely still is ) an awesome speaker.....Enjoy ! MrD. 
Newly acquired Thiel CS2 speaker.....HELP?
My opinion of the best sound through the Thiels would be the Nad as a preamp driving the DBX amp in stereo mode, set at the low impedance setting. Use the Thiels as a two channel audio system, and if you were to use the Thiels in a multi channel s...
