| Speaker Cables ’litz wire’ - won’t that cause termination/issues?You can buy a solder pot cheaply off ebay. which should solve your termination issues. Dipping the ends in should remove the coating and tin them ready for termination. | |
| Speaker Cables roll off the highs within the audio bandwidth significantly enough to be audible | |
| Speaker Cables Higher capacitance will start rolling off the higher frequenciesQuit just parroting stuff you read on the web. For normal runs capacitance will never roll off the highs in the audio bandwidth. It‘s marketing BS by shonkies like Blue jeans. Do the ... | |
| Speaker Cables Questions like these are always rather futile. In this case the responses that you are going to get will fall into three categories:(i) a long and (ultimately) confusing list of member‘s favourite speaker cables - mainly reflecting nothing more th... | |
| Cables ... no longer opinion WRT the Sewell flat adhesive speaker cable identified by nonoise:https://www.amazon.com/Ghost-Adhesive-Speaker-Conductor-Sewell/dp/B079MMFVFJ/ref=sr_1_3?dchild=1&keywords=ghost+wire&qid=1618284602&sr=8-3 it would be very easy to glue t... | |
| Speaker Spike Philosophy I’ll give you an A for persistence | |
| The two most common mistakes are bass and treble Another prime example are my original Acoustic Energy AE1‘s, which are notoriously inefficient, but were designed specifically to combat thermal compression, having their voice coils thermally bonded to the aluminium speaker cones to dissipate hea... | |
| The two most common mistakes are bass and treble I’m coming from the perspective of engineering and as an amplifier manufacturer of the last 45 yearsWithin a specific power envelope ?The other problem you deal with is of course that you get thermal compression if the speaker lacks efficiency. Yo... | |
| Which amplifier should i buy Seriously, what you were always going to get is an exceptionally long list of member‘s own favourite amplifiers. Which may help somewhat. But in the end you are going to have to make a shortlist of suitable amps yourself and listen to them in you ... | |
| The two most common mistakes are bass and treble Forget the specs and judge each speaker on its merits. Use them only as a very broad guide to room matching and amplifier selection. Even then you sometimes get surprising outcomes that shouldn’t work well on paper. | |
| Schiit Urd CD Transport vs Marantz CD6007 Player @jaudio1, you might just have something there........ | |
| Schiit Urd CD Transport vs Marantz CD6007 Player This just isn‘t going to plan | |
| Speaker Spike Philosophy that are damped using very thin-wall heat shrink (somewhat loosely applied) with one or two small holes to allow air to escape.Rather elegant minimalist approach, I assume only shrunk at the extremes to preserve its more ’squishy‘ state and preven... | |
| Schiit Urd CD Transport vs Marantz CD6007 Player Was that you, or the Schiit promotions agency? If it‘s you I think you‘ve just found a well paid job | |
| Schiit Urd CD Transport vs Marantz CD6007 Player Marantz makes a darn good CD player. I have been using my Marantz hd cd1 as a transport for years. It sounds fantastic to my ears and has never skipped a beatYes, but you have already been told the Schiit transport (which has yet to be released) s... |
