| Zavfino @ozzy That was helpful. Don't want an extremely stiff cable. But others in their line are not as stiff, at least that is my impression. | |
| Zavfino Where are you both using the Silver Dart? Source, amp, etc. | |
| Thank you millercarbon Funny the article mentions InAkustik, because that is exactly what I thought when I saw the photo of said new cable. | |
| Pimping your router @thyname Fully agree with you on the "zeroes and ones". | |
| Pimping your router If you want an EtherREGEN, I've read they only have parts to make a few hundred more. So you might want to look into that. I have an ER + LPS and love it. But you should also check into the ENO filter, does not require power, and several posters h... | |
| cassettes CAN sound better than vinyl. @rfnoiseI had several MCS systems. The first was a 10-watt receiver with a matching cassette deck, belt drive MCS TT, and some small book shelf speakers. The second was a 33-watt receiver with a much better cassette deck, MCS 3-way speakers, MCS d... | |
| cassettes CAN sound better than vinyl. @rfnoiseIt was cool to read about your MCS deck. I had several of them in the late 70s and early 80s; forget which models. They got me started in this hobby (really an old table-top tube AM radio did) and I've just gone further and further down th... | |
| What do "audiophiles" use to judge equipment? Ummm, my ears. | |

| Schiit Lokius anyone? Maybe, just maybe, a few of the "no tone controls" manufacturers will pick up on this. A few, like Luxman, have been doing this a long time and I'm sure at least some of their sales were because of the inclusion of tone controls. Viva tone controls! | |
| US Speaker Manufacturer MOST in need of a Great Designer?? Listening to an Andrew Jones masterpiece now, my beloved TAD E-1. | |
| Buying used vs new? Got tired of trying to read every reply. But I'd agree with 2/3 of the thread I read and add one caveat. Have you heard it in your system? Have you read reports of it working positively with your amp? If not, even at half price it will be a crap s... | |
| SET vs Push-Pull (Line Magnetic vs Primaluna) @mabonn You could give Mike Rose @ Excel Audio on Newport Beach a call, where he carries the Line Magnetic line, and he may have some ideas, but it is a bit of a drive. | |
| Do You Ever Find Yourself Unable to Listen To Your System? @geof3 - Agreed | |
| Do You Ever Find Yourself Unable to Listen To Your System? @jay73 - I'm sorry to hear about your current situation. I find that sometimes I loose the will to listen, but I also found that if I will sit down and listen that I will usually find a way of escape, or even better yet, I'll feel better. It happe... |
