Why is high capacitance good?
Superb post Al.Learnt a lot. 
For a budget - True bi-wire or bi-wire?
There are only two genuine wiring methods, true Single wiring and true Biwiring. Every other by-product of this is a pseudo configuration.If a speaker is built for true biwiring, meaning separate crossovers for each pair of terminals, it will soun... 
Smooth sounding copper IC like Kubala Sosna
Will do it, after I and the Cables have done 200 hours together :). So, I know my statement is a bit too bold but having heard many interconnects, the performance of the fusion is so flawless that I did take the courage to write off the KS without... 
Cables & Merlin TSM-XMr
A close friend of mine has the Merlin speakers. We have tried many cables on his system. I found that they love full yet clean sounding cables. Au24 will not work, nor will Nordost. Cardas is nice. One cable that works wonder with this speaker is ... 
Anyone else tried the Acoustic Systems Liveline?
I use a Fusion Audio Romance at present. This is one interconnect which sounds closest to real instruments (tone, timbre, body, texture, harmonics, decay...everything is so real and present). And it does not do this only to the midrange...you hear... 
Anyone else tried the Acoustic Systems Liveline?
Murataltuev, I have had ICs which were even higher in resolution than the Livelines and those ICs sang in my system.I do not want to boast anything about my system, all I can say that it is a very clean sounding system. Reimyo is the source and Sy... 
Audience vs. Auditorium speaker cables
Detail was never a problem even in the old version, it is the presentation. It sounded mechanical. 
Audience vs. Auditorium speaker cables

Audience vs. Auditorium speaker cables
I have not heard the Au24E but have heard the Au24 and Auditorium 23. No comparison !!! Au24 sounds hifi-sh, a bit lean, metallic, mechanical in comparison to Auditorium.So, if you have some very warm sounding gear which you would like spice up th... 
Anyone else tried the Acoustic Systems Liveline?
I have used the ASI Liveline, had it on my system for about 4 months. Yes, you guys are right, they are very resolving of micro details, very lively with great clarity. The highs have a sparkle to it lacking in many cables.However I somehow could ... 
Little bit "forward" sound - what cables to avoid?
I have faced this many times in the past. While extreme cases of forwardness is a difficult situation for moderate corrections it is rather easy. The first thing I would look at for such a treatment is power cords. Typically power cords have the h... 
Digital Cable : Copper, Solid Core, Unshielded
I am planning to order Anti Digital IC. Will write how it goes. 
Smooth sounding copper IC like Kubala Sosna
I finally got the Fusion Audio Romance IC-1. I bought it from Eric Love of Fusion Audio.It has been playing in my system for about 20 hours. Okay, this is making a strong case of ending my interconnect search.Since it is still burning in, I am kee... 
Digital Cable : Copper, Solid Core, Unshielded
Forward meaning, the images are upfront, it is closer to you than you would expect. Such a presentation can excite for the initial period but it never allows you to relax. Every system has a default soundstage perspective, from there on cables can... 
Power Cord: Need to choose from these, please help
I finally got the ESP Essence and ESP Essence Reference. Both are great cords with difference strengths. Essence is warmer and fuller, Essence Reference is a little more open, tighter bass and more transparent. Both of them do one thing very well,...
