| Magicos are chesty The McIntosh speakers I've listened to are to my ears perhaps the worst "high end" speakers I've encountered. | |
| Why Power Cables Affect Sound I understood his last two sentences to mean that if one is skeptical, not to be antagonistic. Which I abided by.Now, if the OP meant that ANY suggestion of skepticism was by nature "antagonistic" then that I think is unwarranted. There’s no reason... | |
| Why Power Cables Affect Sound boxer12,So you fall in to the "If I just repeat the same criticism without any more evidence, and without addressing the other person’s points, that will do."That doesn’t exactly elevate the conversation here. In fact it seems rather...antagonisti... | |
| Magicos are chesty I heard just a tiny bit of this on the Magico A3. I have a few tracks that bring it out - some Johnny Cash and even some Julie London tracks.It wasn't nearly as bad as a number of other speakers, but it was there.Personally, the best I've ever he... | |

| Why Power Cables Affect Sound mrdecibel,What you or others believe, particularly in high end audio, makes little difference to me.But the problem is you will still come here and comment on what you think my position is. And because you "don't care" you will continually misunde... | |
| Speakers with the most detailed midrange? (non-ESL/planar) helomech,Actually, upon auditioning the JMR speakers on several occasions, I actually found them a tad forward and bright. I found them more fatiguing over a long listening period. They do have an "up front" sound. | |
| Why Power Cables Affect Sound mrdecibelI have no reason to respond to your ignorance or foolishness.Why the insults? Why can't you simply discuss matters about audio like a mature adult? (What is it about AC cables...of all things!...that makes people's emotion run so high?)... | |
| Why Power Cables Affect Sound So, while I am enjoying these improvements in sq in my listening, they are still battling it. Or, an alternative possibility is that you have wasted money on a product whose performance was oversold to you. And we are getting just as great result... | |

| Are "listening to" or "listening with" erik,That’s really cool to read that you were in projection!I know what you mean about how work can influence how you view a hobby. I’m in to both 2 channel audio and home theater. In my work as a sound designer (that’s the cooler sounding name so... | |
| Why Power Cables Affect Sound @analogluvr And I think some manufacturers say to use the best cabling because they don’t want to alienate potential buyers.Exactly. Some manufacturers surely believe in the use of high end AC cables. But some are obviously making concessions to ... | |
| Why Power Cables Affect Sound @tom1000Good power cords can make a difference. However, there is another question that needs to be considered. Are you capable of hearing the difference? Exactly!This is the issue that so often goes unheeded in audiophile circles. We can measur... | |
| Speakers with the most detailed midrange? (non-ESL/planar) Vivid audio is a good bet if you want that experience of super clarity and detail in the mids/highs. |
