| Can speaker cables be too thick? Yes, Dave, dielectrics in fine source open systems benefit with air dielectric for just the reason you are describing. As for round vs, flat I am talking solid wire vs. flat ribbon at 12 gauge. For small wires, I like solid just fine. I use such a... | |
| Can speaker cables be too thick? Dave is echoing what I said about dielectrics. There are a number of cable makers that have addressed that concern. The Anti-Cable, a cable I championed, is very good in regards to noise suppression. The mids of round solid wire are fine, but the ... | |
| Can speaker cables be too thick? Flat - very thin- should be kept very short. That gives you the best worlds in mids and highs. Even 1 ohm benefits. | |
| Class-D amps - a different re view Thank you Bob. | |
| Can speaker cables be too thick? Oh, I didn't know the copper conductor was the issue. When Dazdax mentions Cardas and MIT in the same line, I naturally thought he was talking about the visual size. I do not have an opinion on thick cables. I will try that on my bass panels. I fo... | |
| Can speaker cables be too thick? Thick speaker cables are horrible on my system. I don;t care what shape they come in. I have tried the MIT and Cardas you mention. Pick your poison. I cannot believe the trash heavy insulation randomly inserts into the signal path does not deterio... | |
| Class-D amps - a different re view Points well taken, Bob. As an example that supports your observations, I just installed Sonicap Platinum bypass caps, and like what they have done. My speaker cables are short. I have found SC and IC insulation pollutes the signal significantly. I... | |

| Class-D amps - a different re view This is a lot different than responses to similar questions as little as a year ago. I love it when we get the usual tried it all and found only solid state is three dimensional. What was your attending equipment? The rules have changed. Wires, pr... | |
| Class-D amps - a different re view There are module in a box ICE amps, millions. That is why they developed a good digital power supply. Although some versions of ICE ASP modules do make it into fancy boxes intended for the Hi Fi set, they tend to pass by the wayside. B&O does ... | |
| Class-D amps - a different re view Phd, wanting "body" in your playback is, of course, a valid desire. Big AB amps are the best for that. Class A breaks down the body into mellow details. Tubes take the dissection further. You simply hear more of what is recorded. Great class D wil... | |
| Class-D amps - a different re view Florian, Looney (proper spelling) is the guy who figured out who Shakespeare is. I agree with him, and proudly wear the looney label. | |
| Class-D amps - a different re view Our collective point is, Phd, you can't just try a class D amp, It takes a commitment to find out what brings out any class D amp's best. Some folks are lucky and have equipment that works well with their new amps. Others have hose cables, high im... | |
| Class-D amps - a different re view Fazio, check out what I did with my H2O monos and speaker cables. The cables cost a couple dollars apiece. Write me if you want more info. the advantage is not small. Oh, and be sure to run the Sonicap Platinum .1ยต between the positive and negativ... | |
| Class-D amps - a different re view Woodburger and Bbro have said it. Synergy is where it is. I have found naked speaker cables make night and day differences. Same goes for non-oversampling. The preamp choice is paramount as well. As class D amps continue their spread, we will see ... |
