| Acoustic Energy Aegis One Speakers. those RS interconnects are 8mm, black, with little yellow and white rings on the end and come in a white package. If you try them, be very careful about mounting them on your amp. The connectors are very tight. | |
| Acoustic Energy Aegis One Speakers. Im listening to a pair right now in my office system. Smooth, grain-free and a little rolled off. Definitely not bright. Didnt need much breaking in either. Id suggest losing the Monster ic and RS speaker cable. Dont need to spend a lot of money. ... | |
| Best female vocals on CD Eva Cassidy. (I havent read all the entries above and dont know if anyone mentioned her). Try her Live at Blues Alley and Eva by Heart. Honorable mention: Mary Black (not the last 3 cds, go for her earlier stuff), Gilliam Welch (Revival mentioned ... | |

| Noisy AI Mod 3A? J_k brings up a point I forgot to mention. Anything else plugged that's plugged into you electrical system could cause a problem. I forgot about that and when my speakers started humming and buzzing last night, couldn't figure it out until I unplu... | |
| Noisy AI Mod 3A? Oh, I should have added shielded connectors with a WBT-like connector. The AI sockets or whatever you call them seem to be slightly smaller than standard, and sometimes I think a less than tight grip will cause a hum. | |
| Noisy AI Mod 3A? Some of them, mine included,pick up vibration from their own transformer. You can play with its positioning, put something on it or under it, or send it back if its under warranty. I also had a ground hum problem. Three things have eliminated it. ... | |
| Who is Most Beautiful female singer ever Lena Horne, without a doubt, oh wait a minute, Mary Wells was there too. This is a most interesting thread. Eva Cassidy might have had the most beautiful voice or been the best non-operatic singer (certainly one of my 2 or 3 favorites) and you cou... | |
| Weight Loss and MP-3 Bought a Nomad Jukebox for my wife. Sounds better than a portable cd player with anti-shock on, certainly good enough to enjoy while walking or jogging, but its heavier. The smaller Nomad II isnt as good, but still better than a portable cd with a... |
