Why Power Cables Affect Sound
Not that anyone cares, but I will no longer be responding to any naysayer comments. It is obvious to me, that I, and others here, have a greater degree / ability to hear certain things, and it is a waste of my time and energy to indulge in any mor... 
Has anyone tried these stunning new CPT power cord?
lesslosslover, when you said " I got a good price ", I made the assumption, you, in fact, never paid for it. If you did, as you say, my sincerest apologies to you. I am sorry, as I jumped to conclusions, based on how I read your post. All my best,... 
Has anyone tried these stunning new CPT power cord?
stereo5, I am glad you said it, as that is what I meant by " bandit " ( robber, thief ). With what Mark and Lynn have been going through these last few months, not seeing their paypal refund, is understandable. They did make good on their obligati... 
Nuforce STA200
Brad, does it run cool on the speakers currently being driven with the Proceed ? It is AB for sure. As a correction, if I may. The STA 200 does not use the same circuit " board " as the Job, but it does share the same circuit design. The design is... 
Why Power Cables Affect Sound
Prof, I just made clear of some human traits I see in others. On top of that, I am not upset in the least. What you or others believe, particularly in high end audio, makes little difference to me. Besides, you seem to be  clueless as to the " cam... 
Has anyone tried these stunning new CPT power cord?
So lesslosslover, see if I understand. CPT received your money...…. Paypal refunded you. You received the product anyway. Who is out the money, CPT or Paypal ? Does Paypal collect the money from CPT, or is this a guarantee that Paypal has. Either ... 
Why Power Cables Affect Sound
prof, I indicated to you, and others, that I have no reason to respond to your ignorance or foolishness. I am never " sold " on anything, as I seek to " buy ", as, there is a difference between the two. My listening, my system, my music, my experi... 
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... 
Which power cords should I look at?
Power cables " can " lower the noise floor. How ? Do not know. Might or might not be audible to everyone, as indicated by analogluvr, or,  through every system, but yes, pcs can reduce noise. Enjoy ! MrD. 
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...
