Looking for really fine cables at really low price
Mikirob,Looks like you have lots to look forward to. Luckily, my Clearwave Duet 6 monitors are already internally wired with Supra tinned, stranded copper wire so there is some kind of continuity in place now doing it's magic. From the amp to the ... 
Looking for really fine cables at really low price
On Jeff Days's blog site it shows his cables being "cooked" on a device as part of his break in process. I, myself, enjoy the many and varied twists and turns a cable takes. Just when I think it's reached it's potential, I always love it when I'm ... 
Bad news for audiophiles?
I've been told that the vineyards keep the trunk and roots of the older vines and graft the same or even different varietals atop. Some of these older trunks can be quite massive and go deep into the soil. So as Al pointed out, the soil characteri...

If the WE 16ga speaker wire is anything like the Supra Ply 3.4W, then 100 hrs sounds about right. My Supras were great out of the box and just got better and better as the hours piled on. I thought that at 50 hrs they wouldn't get any better but I...

Zd542, No, I missed that one. The only upside would be to return the unit for a refund and keep the wine. Of the two, at least one would satisfy.All the best,Nonoise 
Has anybody tried using single solid core cables?
I've come around to thinking it's all in the implementation and the particular system. Right now, I have solid core silver for my ICs and tinned, stranded copper for my SCs.It's the best I've heard in my present system.Coli, interesting personal o...

Orpheus, your analogy is (wine) spot on. :-)Stringreen, yes, a lessor wine can taste better than a higher priced one. Case in point, at the last tasting I went to, the presenter who imports the wine is a Frenchman who's steeped in wine from an ear...

If not, a big, juicy class A/B power amp like Pass could do it. A long time ago I had a pair of Magnapan Tympani three panel speakers and ran them with a BGW boat anchor of an amp and it never failed to satisfy.Didn't that address it in an apropos... 
Machina Dynamica
I don't know about the poles reversing but now some think the universe is actually two dimensional and it's something akin to a hologram projection that we live in. Two dimensions make it much easier to relate to and compute in and is gaining favo...

I, too, am curious as to why you want to improve on something you already love. Here's my feeble attempt to read between your lines: despite the pure, detailed, pristine and holographic results of your endeavors, it can, at times, sound harsh.Gran... 
Has anyone tried Blue Jeans Cable LC-1 RCA IC?
I own 6 pair of blue jeans.I could not stop laughing. 
Looking for really fine cables at really low price
When it comes to speaker cable, it's the same with me: it's too expensive to experiment. As tempted as I am to buy some bulk WE wire, I'm going to sit this one out as the Supra's are still breaking in and getting better all the while. Last night I... 
Looking for really fine cables at really low price
I did the same and the seller still has wire. Lots of wire. Some in red cloth and some in black but with different or no writing on the wire. There's no reason to think it's different as batches will vary over time when it comes to what's printed ... 
Looking for really fine cables at really low price
The conventional wisdom is to just use the bare ends. Although convenient, terminations may impart their own sonic signature. I for one, can't really tell the difference with absolute certainty. Having said that, is this close?If not, try here.All...
