| Are cables really worth their high price because of their geometry? I find that hard to believe. What pressure are you running?All you car nuts are just the same - refusing to accept the reality that a set of Walmart Bridgestones will perform just as well as a your fancy low profile European imports. | |
| Are cables really worth their high price because of their geometry? I just put a Michelin Pilot Super Sport low Profile tire on my wheelbarrow and it didn‘t make any difference to its performance at all. What a con !All expensive tires are snake oil. | |
| Are cables really worth their high price because of their geometry? High end cables are a hoaxI am delighted I was hoodwinked. Enjoy the outcomes of your belief system. | |
| Are cables really worth their high price because of their geometry? You have already started your own SECOND thread on this subject ‘How to Select a Good Speaker Cable’ in case anybody is interested. Just because hardly anybody has shown any real interest there doesn’t mean they will show any here. Why don’t you l... | |
| Are cables really worth their high price because of their geometry? Above should read Nordost, spell correct strikes again. | |
| Are cables really worth their high price because of their geometry? I always look for an interconnect that is dynamically unconstrained and has the transparency which allows my system to exhibit chameleon like properties with respect to different components and recordings.The best cable I have in that regard is so... | |
| Are cables really worth their high price because of their geometry? I have the lower end Kimber Select (all copper)ICs in my system, linking Plinius amp to pre and linking Oppo 95 to pre. Is it my ear that will tell if I jump to Analysis Plus Apex Silver, that this was a good spend to upgrade my musical experienc... | |
| Are cables really worth their high price because of their geometry? Please don‘t hijack this thread and resurrect that tired old thread here. I think it has run its course. We already know you are the kenjit of speaker cables. | |
| Are cables really worth their high price because of their geometry? Investing in decent interconnects has saved me big bucks in the long run. They have enabled me to hear and enjoy almost exactly what I am buying upstream, not some filtered, dynamically compressed facsimile thereof. Had I not, I could have made so... | |
| Are cables really worth their high price because of their geometry? I don‘t know whether it’s their geometry, and I don‘t care, but getting a full set of Cardas Gold Reference interconnects at knockdown prices from Parts Connexion was probably one of the best audio investments I have ever made.A huge upgrade from ... | |
| The Best Isolation/ Vibration Footers per component - what's your experience? I have a really early Townshend ‘seismic sink’ type platform which inflates with a bicycle pump. It’s pretty nifty under CD players.I guess the later variants may be even better. | |
| Solid states more accurate than tubes? As with every component, it depends entirely upon the IMPLEMENTATION, not the categorisation. There is one well known manufacturer that has been criticised by some for producing tube amps that sound too analytical and ‚solid state‘. The reverse ha... | |
| is this the greatest live band of all time? +1 Ween - they are actually great musicians and you really get to appreciate that when you see them live. | |
| is this the greatest live band of all time? Duds - T-Rex: couldn’t play live if their lives depended on it (who is that stupid little git struggling with the mike trying to sing?). The Ramones circa ‘89 going through the motions with about as much enthusiasm as a nun at a rave (although our... | |
| is this the greatest live band of all time? I saw Joe Cocker three times spanning the late 70’s to the early 80’s, and to to say he was inconsistent is a wild understatement. One absolute dud, one OK performance and one which ranks up there with anything I have ever witnessed. ... |
