Interconnects & XLR cables for Bryston Amp/Preamp I don't like silver with my bryston either, like Tvad I had too much detail. Ruined the fun of half my cd collection! With the cables I've played with though, silver seems the way to go for hyper detail. I would make sure you can enjoy your poorly... | |
Interconnects & XLR cables for Bryston Amp/Preamp Don't know what your speakers are, but Meridian into Bryston into Brystom amp you should have too much detail ;-)You could play with some Alpha Core Goertz TQ silvers,or maybe acoustic Zen Wow IC's or AZ silver reference.

Cambridge Audio CD4 SE- Upgrade ? CD-R Errors ? It really depends on your player which will work best for you. It is my understanding that while there are many brands of cdr's there are only a few different plants that make the blanks, so one set of bulk disks could be the same as a branded jew... | |
Cambridge Audio CD4 SE- Upgrade ? CD-R Errors ? Weird, usually cd players do better with slower burn speeds (more burn time spent on each pit). I would first try a friend's burner then go buy a bunch of different cdr brands (mainly try different colors including 'black') and see if your player ... | |
Harmonic Tech/Nordost/Acoustic Zen/Kimber? on Sim I have a P-5 pre running into a Bryston amp, and I am in the same boat as you trying to find good cable matchs. I don't know how balanced your system is at the moment, but I was uncomfortably in need of some warmth. Switched to HT truthlink from c... | |

Floorstanders on wood floor, help I second the big hunk o' rock idea. Even soneting that's 20lbs should help. I would try spikes or cones under a paver slab then compare the speakers on top with spikes and some isolation. I would recomend something other than sorbothane. My experi... | |
$250 Computer Sound Hey and easy question. ;-)I have the Mosoon mm-1000, and they are just awesome for what they do. Audio Critic magazine called them 'near perfect' or something, they are mini planars for your desk. I paid $120 or something. They are discontinued, b... | |
CARA modelling : the best for German speakers Cara is a worth wild investment is you have some time to spend learning how to use it. It also helps if you are a little interested in acoustics since it makes the process as well as the result enjoyable.It's a German program and that probably exp... | |
Putting floorstanding speakers on stands... I did something similar to Woodman, added 3 inches in height.Big difference for me, I was really tired of 'listening down' to the sound stage and the midget band effect.Just get some different size bricks, decide on the right height then make some... | |
The METERS....tight,funky vibes The Rhino Records Meters box set is great, not the best recordings from New Orleans in the 60's though.Sundazed put out an lp of rare meters with some really nice covers (Beatles, Hank Williams, Rolling stones).Not as good as the Wild Tchoupitoula... | |

Warm and Wet cables? Forgot to mention that my PMC ab2 speakers are 6ohm. Read a couple posts where people describe alpha core speaker cable as better with 2-4 ohm speakers.Anyone have experience with this?Nik |
