| John Dunlavy On "Cable Nonsense" Hey Leafs - in your opinion, you spend more time on one-liners slamming MIT and your promotion of Coincident cables. Hmm, interesting. I borrowed Coincident speaker cables from a buddy here on audiogon and they didn't do it for me, IMO. Does't mea... | |
| Help me Tweek my System, for less 59burst, I've never had success plugging a power amp into a conditioner - it just seems to make it less dynamic and open, I've always gone directly into the wall. The other biggest tweak period is finding the perfect spot for you speakers, this ca... | |
| Opinions of MIT MH 750 speaker cable The shotguns are excellent, smooth, cyrstal clarity and imaging that will be scary on some recordings, I've heard the analysis plus - not in the same league IMO. | |
| TV/DVD Setup Disc Sean, I have a pioneer elite that I haven't calibrated yet, just using the avia disc myself. I get some occasional shadowing and posterization depending on the source, especially when the source is DVD. I think that is because it hasn't been calib... | |
| Party At Albertporter s Hey Garfish, seems like Albert might be a little uptight about his things, he'll probably spend most of his time sliding coasters under our cold beverages - see if you can loosen him up...Jerry | |
| Best Component Ever, for the money Thiel 3.6, a model that has been in existence 9 years with no upgrade - could easily sell for 2 1/2 times IMHO. | |
| Party At Albertporter s Hey Albert, mind if I cook burgers on your amps or should i bring a grill? | |
| Rotel conrad-johnson The PV10 is a giant killer, a true bang for your buck component. I'm far from a techno wizard but you might want to check with CJ on how it mates with the low input impedance on the Rotel (with most of their models) and the relatively high output ... | |
| I opened both MIT and Transparent netwks Dekay - I'm impressed, you know your ribs. | |
| Modification of speaker cables Emily, mit reconfigured some speaker wire for me, went from biwire to single for thiels, cost was $100, I'm guessing retermination is cheaper. I've used bare wire and IMO you can't really tighten down the connections enough without almost breaking... | |
| Thiel cs3.6 keep blow up mid/tweter driv Man, that stinks! I have a 3.6 and "knock on wood" haven't had any problems and I crank it pretty good on occassion with a classe ca200. Unless you really crank it until you hear some breakup I don't see how it blows, it sounds like some sort of s... | |
| Applause: Bummer Hey Blbloom, I agree about Clapton "24 nights" - that was a great tour and the cd sounds pretty good, not compressed. He hasn't moved me much since Journeyman although back to the cradle has some good moments. | |
| BEST AC CORD UNDER 1000? What I've learned thus far in this bizzaro hobby about pc's is that like anything else they alter the reproduction coming out of your speaks. You either like it or you don't or you get used to it or tired of it and make a change. I've experimented... | |
| Cowboy Junkies Fans........ Garfish - thanks for the heads up - they are without a doubt in my top 5 and have been for years. Ever seem em live? they've played near me a couple of times but i'm too lazy to go. | |
| Speaker Cable for Thiel 3.6 I'm using mit 750 plus 3, very satisfied, also using mit 330 shotgun ic's. smoooth, dynamic, great imaging and tons of low level information. as you already know this is a world class speaker but synergy is critical to bring out the best. good luck. |
