What is your cost for each system category ?
I took it as extro instead of intro, I'm sorry. But I didn't feel anything on my toes."How do you know that this is related to 'the signal loss thread?'"Related topics.Everything is okay. There's nothing for you to be concerned about. 
What is your cost for each system category ?
I wouldn't talk too much trash there Nrchy. This thread is a cousin to your "signal" loss thread. I'll give you a blue ribbon for your well-balancedness, though.With more system information I think a cost ratios do mean something. It is murkied by... 
Make me feel better
I broke a Dyna DV-20x some time ago, during setup. I can recall that throw-uppy feeling with crystal clarity.Start drinking or get laid. 
My Survey project, I need YOUR help : :
1) "Objective" statistical analysis is done for focus group, demo and qualitative data. 2) Its just a stats class. Let the man make his gigantic histogram.Audioquest 5**Boston Accoustics 4**B&W 6*Bose 1*Cardas 5**Classe 5**Infinity 3JBL 3JVC 1...

SACD 2...for those who have not heard
SACD 2, the fatter, stingier SACD. Boo, get off the stage. 
What componant degrades the signal least/most?
I'm just bringing up a point, really. Circadian rhythms and noise external to the stereo, make a night and day difference with my signal loss. More so than with any component change, but obviously these factors are my "wall", and not necessarily a... 
Why do people selling on E Bay "USE" Audiogon?
Please realize that with a seller advertising here, merely comparing an ebay v. audiogon seller becomes meaningless. One could sell at either place and their ethics would stay the same. In order to make any decent guess as to the upstandingness of... 
Why do people selling on E Bay "USE" Audiogon?
What difference does it make? Ebay doesn't make a particular seller riskier than audiogon or vice versa. One can rip you off just as easily here as there. The auctions are run a little differently, but I don't think differences are that big of a d... 
Paradigm 100 v.3 – B&W 804 dilemma… please help
You make a good point. I'd still take the non-equalized audition over some jerk's (like me:) advice, though. But if opinions are what you are looking for, I can respect that. Unlike most people, I don't think Paradigms are competitive in the $2k r... 
Paradigm 100 v.3 – B&W 804 dilemma… please help
I can see why you want to ask someone who you think knows better, but I'm telling ya', no one here knows any better than you. Go back, listen some more, for a long time if you need it. Maybe try to land a B&W audition with a more powerful amp....

A newbie with a speaker cable AWG question.
Cardas makes big fucking cable that is warm and compatible with Classe and B&W. Cable is too big when it pulls the speaker of its stand. 
Other "silver" spk cables.....
I have never heard them, but RS (as in not Ridge Street) cables. I think like $270 for six foot pair. 
What do You listen to?
Audioph, there are as many classical and jazz, etc. sub- categories as the sub-categories you listed for rock, urban and pop. I understand, though. Every time I go to an audiophile's house, I feel like I died and went to the Lawrence Welk Show. I ...
