Speaker wire is it science or psychology I have no interest in responding to this post, these pop up about every 3 weeks or so and usually get way into the doulbe figures with responses, but I would like to comment on Whosyourdaddy's take. What a sickening story that is - it's too bad au... | |
FIM Gold Power Cords Problems? Stevedepp, your post is fine don't worry about ratings - that is the first dumb idea audiogon has come up with. In every industry there are irresponsible people on the net, they are incognito - bet they wouldn't have the nerve to rate your post fa... | |
Speaker Fetish It's bitch aint it! I'm waiting on some speaker cables for my HT rig now, don't really even need em, well yeah I do sortof. I've got my face pressed against the front window searching for brown trucks. Sometimes when they rudely pass by I chase em... | |
cable help ? Stevemj, I wish you had told me this revelation earlier. I've got a few faults (I've been told but don't believe it) but I didn't think what I hear was one. | |
Best Copper IC under 200. Kadlec, my thoughts are try MIT through Audio Advisor - 30 day money back guarantee. 330+ or even term series, the term 2 ic is around $80, I know MIT speaker cables and Thiel are an excellent match, I've got em. Not sure about Cary/MIT though. I ... | |
Tube amp blues Sometimes swapping tubes (same tubes different channel) in a preamp solves that problem, it has to do with gain, not sure about power amps but worth a try. Good luck. | |
MIT bashed, not Transparent, why? OH MAN! I don't know how much more palpability I can take, I remember from one of your prev. posts your impressions about 770's. It made me drool. I really need to up my preamp - big jump or I would definitely make the jump now, or maybe I'll just... | |
High on Thier List, But Low on Yours I have also tried to like Audio Research - I even sat through a seminar conducted with their people in conjunction with Apogee and I just don't get it. The sound is so sterile and uninvolving to my ears. I also don't get benefits from alot of twea... | |
cable length Be careful, there is nothing worse than a cable not long enough to reach, some speakers like Thiels need at least 8 feet between them and depending on circumstances maybe 9 to 10 feet. So if you ever change speaks... Also resale is not as good IMHO. | |
MIT bashed, not Transparent, why? FYI for MIT owners or those considering - I just received some 750+ S3's back from the factory - they were being reconfigured from biwire to single wire for my Thiels. I was using Kimber 8TC in it's place and the improvement was just short of unbe... | |
Integrated Amp for Thiel 2.3 s ? Hi Yashi, this is a tough one. I'm a big Thiel fan, IMO they are the best - with the right eq. I've got 3.6's which are very diff. from yours, however, same vein and concept. Tonally accurate and ruthlessly revealing. Even the MIT's or Cardas migh... | |
Krell versus Levinson experience Hey jadis, nice exaggeration in your post - "sucks" and "junk". I guess those companies started with a great mission statement. Lets make products that suck, overprice them for the junk they are. | |
Best value for the buck speaker cables Kimber 8TC with postmaster term. is the best bang for the buck IMO, but MIT 750 series 2 and 3 is a big step up in my system, YMMV. Haven't heard the MIT terminator series. | |
Interconnect advice MIT 330 shotguns, check you input imp., the technology in these cables is input imp. specific - if possible audition, if not buy used and resell if you don't like, you will get your money back. However, you'll like. | |
Where is the best place for amp s Hi Craig, my advice is don't do it, I've had long ic's with the components to the side out of the soundfield, and I currently have everything in the middle with the amp in front on an amp stand. I don't notice any difference - if anything I like i... |
