why do people feel the need to buy expensive cable
All true. And yet we still have some of the highest income inequality among developed nations. Life expectancy has gone up for those making over $150,000 and remains stagnant for those who make under that amount. More people are rejecting vaccines...

Civilization has advanced over the last few centuries by applying rigorous standards to distinguish between nonsense and truth.And yet..... 
I'm not dreaming - these are great CD copies
From what I could gather on the 'ol interwebs, CDRs from Taiyo Yuden (sold as Fujifilm as well) and Vertabim are best for making copies but they are expensive. All other brands will tend to sound the same as a CD.All the best,Nonoise 
I'm not dreaming - these are great CD copies
There is a review (that I can't locate) that explained how a laser reads the physical pits and grooves of a CD. It's being done in an analog fashion ( a mechanical process) which then had to be processed into the digital domain. With the laser jus... 
Upgrading speaker cables...
@manofgteelpt,What I meant is if you have bare ended wires, to try what I suggested. I can’t recommend stripping off cable ends if it’s not in your budget but if you’re of a mind to try, what I suggested is to use the positive cable end to connect... 
Upgrading speaker cables...
If the bi wire posts on your speakers are easily accessible to fiddle with and you can use bare wire (no terminations) then you can leave enough bare wire exposed to reach both terminals. You can alway go back with a length of tubing, size up the ...

Cable Snake Oil Antidote
It is counter intuitive that electrical energy in a series of electronics and cables could be immune from changes in LCR. Given loudspeakers with sufficient resolution, the changes should be apparent. However, just as some are colorblind and other...

We Need A Separate Forum for Fuses
All of what you've mentioned has been gone over many times and disputed by those who have tried fuses. Their accounts are right here on these forums for you to go over and they are rather detailed. To go over them again would be fruitless as this ... 
why do people feel the need to buy expensive cable
Two of the speakers I used to own are internally wired with Supra Ply. I tried Supra Ply SCs and the sound was okay. Using different SCs sounded better. It's not always the case that what's used inside a speaker is good enough for use as SCs.All t... 
We Need A Separate Forum for Fuses
I am a fuse adopter, with a digital front end. After the improvement, I replaced the fuse in my integrated. (this is beginning to sound like a 12 step program).As far as voiding a warranty, come on. I grew up in a household where most of the work ...

Like, try a fuse for yourself and then you'll know? 😄 
We Need A Separate Forum for Fuses
If a mere fuse caused any audible change in sound in any of my equipment then you can be assured I would be rid of that useless POS boat anchor equipment in a flash. If a mere fuse makes an audible difference in your gear then you can be pretty mu...
