| Why Power Cables Affect Sound Again, after the last post from prof and analogluvr, they are simply missing out on the fact that " after market power cables " make a difference, and generally, improvements. So, while I am enjoying these improvements in sq in my listening, they ... | |
| Why Power Cables Affect Sound For whatever reason, my post was cut short. My CJ statement was supposed to indicate that the wire CJ uses, was selected, based on purchase price, availability and the requirements CJ needs to " get the job done " , probably not on sound quality (... | |
| Why Power Cables Affect Sound The Belden brand " connection " that comes with equipment, is generally under a purchase agreement, contracted to the manufacturer, as their wire supplier. There are around 40 other well known companies who " manufacture " electrical wire, such a... | |
| Why Power Cables Affect Sound Theories and evidence ? Plausible explanations ? Measurements ? It doesn’t matter the reasons. Many of us hear these differences ( for whatever the reasons ), and actually conclude on determining preferences. If you have an interest in the subject... | |
| Curious what people think is the best "value" high end speaker (~5K to 15K) OP, the 3 best recommendations from above, that I recommend, are the Klipschorn, some of the JBL models, and the Volti Allura speakers. I own Klipsch Lascalas ( horns ), supplemented with powered subwoofers, as I do not have corners. Why do I say ... | |
| Filter capacitor issue To the OP, obviously your brother did not teach you enough, or you did not learn enough from his teachings. The fact that you thought you can do all this work, with the intent to selling it ( probably to profit ), I am glad the piece did not go in... | |

| Why Power Cables Affect Sound kosst, I make points often, that not everything will show up in measurements, such as this power cord thing. Comparing 2 12 gauge pcs from different manufactures, I hear differences. I have built cables, using the same wire, but different connecto... | |

| Which Amp to complete my system? I would think a nice class A ss amp, such as the Pass XA 25, would do wonderfully. I own Lascalas, modified and tweaked, and heard one 6 months ago through another pair of Lascalas. I was contacted by a friend, who had a customer of his wanting h... | |
| Nuforce STA200 brad, if you were to connect the Nuforce to your speakers, without connecting anything to the amps input, ( any amp for that matter ), you may find the Nuforce / other amps to be quiet through the speakers. I have done that with both of my Nuforce... | |
| Why Power Cables Affect Sound Somehow, I believe kosst, just might hear a difference between the power cable currently used with his home built F5, vs. another after market cord. If kosst has hot wired his cord, I know he would not make the change. But, if kosst used an IEC in... | |
| Which power cords should I look at? N80, this will be my last and only reply to you, here on this thread. I never suggested you are the one who first brought up the placedo effect. But, you sure obsessed over it, and ran with it, so much more than the individual who did initially br... |
