Waiting for PONO Neil Young's promotional tour with all those musical celebrities notwithstanding, it's all going to boil down to just how good the mastering is. We've all heard poor, hi rez recordings. I believe there are products out there already that do the sa... | |

I don't get it There's always going to be a faction that conflates price with performance in any hobby you care to come up with and it's not a means to any kind of ends to speak of, audio satisfaction wise.You're right to point it out and the confusion it engend... | |
Best interconnects & speaker cable? I don't get it They should come up with a dead horse punching bag for audiophiles. If room size is a problem, just the head will do. You can put it on an audiophile approved stand.All the best,Nonoise | |

Taking Suggestions for New Speaker Cables What the heck, try some Tempo Electric speaker cables. If you go with bare wire ends, it'll cost you less than half your budget. They are .9999 silver, soft annealed and I couldn't be happier with mine, so there.All the best,Nonoise | |
High-Efficiency Single Driver Speaker System Sksos1, Thanks for pointing out that there's a distinct difference in the sound of the 8" PHY driver compared to the 12". I thought there'd be a "house sound" to PHY drivers and that the 8" would be a step up from the Fostex drivers used in my TL-... | |

Is there a glass ceiling for cable technology?? In a word, no.Having said that, I've gotten the best results I've had with some plain old 16 gauge .9999 soft annealed silver wire with an 8 gauge teflon tube that's so big it makes air the primary dielectric. No connectors, just bare wire.All the... |
