Cable Break In for the Naysayers
atanarjuat99, I owned the Sopra 2’s for quite some time and enjoyed them very much. They have beryllium tweeters and depending upon the source many think they sound bright. I didn’t, but at that time I was using tube amps. I used mine with no t... 
Cable Break In for the Naysayers
Thanks for that link. With good equipment and ears, cable breakin is an event that we "mostly all" have experienced. ozzy  
Focals latest - Cat Houses?

tksteingraber, is right, the Infinity fuse box should be the same in sound quality as the original SDFB, but it does allow using it on different components. I opted for the graphene slug to use, and that combo far exceeded the Synergetic Research...

huddy957, Thank you for your recent post. I envy your AQ Dragon interconnects. I was able to find a used 2-meter AQ Firebird XLR cable so that is what I am now using. ozzy

tksteingraber, Thank you for your comments. I wish I could try my amp(s) into the Snub Station Zero but they are very powerful and use 20A fuses. I think Mark is right that additional breakin time is helpful, the combos are still improving. Are...
