| ATC scm 19 vs ATC scm 20SL? There are revealing speakers and there are revealing speakers. I find ATC to belong to the second category, wherein they not only reveal the weaknesses of a system or recording but also equally honestly reveal the strengths/goodness of the whole c... | |
| Neutral to Lean Power Cord for tube preamp You can also get a similar impact by putting your preamp under Symposium Rollerblocks. The rollerblocks are wonderful for tube equipments. The ESP will have a more profound impact though. | |
| Neutral to Lean Power Cord for tube preamp ESP Essence Reference does exactly that but in a good way. It tightens up the bass (chopping off fats ?) and also makes the bass very tuneful and rhythmic. In the process it does amazing PRAT with a very clean, articulate background/soundstage. I ... | |
| Best Cables for around $500 I really do not want to prove Peurto's point but I think you have missed one of the most significant cable at this price, it is the Crimson Musiclink cables. You can read about them on Audiogon. They come with a 30 day trial period. | |
| Audio Aero Players I have been using the latest Capitole Reference since last couple of months and the experience has been fabulous. It has so many things to offer when it comes to air, fluidity and soundstage, it is an ear opener. | |

| All time favorite speaker cables For me it turned out to be an absolute boutique cable from Einstein Audio, their Greenline Largo, Unisono combo has beaten everything else I tried by a long shot. The production of these specific cables have stopped now. Volker, the designer of al... | |

| Speaker cables for Dynaudio C1 I have been writing about Crimson RM musiclink interconnects on couple of other threads. These are fabulous cables, no-nonsense. All this discussion about lean vs fat, muddy vs clean, sterile vs engaging got over for me after I owned the Crimsons.... | |
| speaker cables between Pass and Penaudio Give Crimson Musiclink a chance, you may not want to change your cables for a long time after that. They have free 30 day trial as well. | |
