| Contemplating DEVORE SPEAKERS (and others)....LONG audition report of many speakers rothwea,You may well be right.Looking at the Super 9 specs, they are almost the same size exactly as the Joseph speakers, are spec'd a bit lower in the bass, and use bigger woofers. It's possible the Super 9's would strike just the right balance ... | |

| DO CABLES REALLY MATTER? calvinj,I am certainly not here to tell you or anyone you shouldn't enjoy buying and listening to whatever cables you like. Glad you are so enthusiastic about your set up.I'm mostly representing the reasons why I don't apportion much of my mental... | |

| if I buy an ultrasonic cleaner for my records will I be able to hear the difference? As I mentioned earlier, I don't yet have experience with USC as I'm still awaiting my Degritter USC.But if you want to hear a comparison before and after an old record was cleaned, Degritter recorded such a comparison. If you go to the Degritter ... | |
| YG Acoustics, Raihdo? I have not heard any YG speakers, but I auditioned a couple Raidho monitors. Best ribbon tweeter integration I've ever experienced (I don't know if I've ever liked another dynamic speaker with a ribbon tweeter because I always hear a discontinui... | |

| Thiel Owners Tom, thanks. Some form of mechanical break in sounds plausible to me for speakers. | |
| Cable Burn In clearthink,Then why don’t you buy some actual audio cable and conduct some experiments for yourself you seem to be a vocal advocate and promoter of what you seem to think is the "scientific" method you could acquire your own set of verifiable data... | |
| Cable Burn In hifiman5,OP - shadorne and the other measurers insist that if you can't measure it you won't hear it...you might convince yourself you did, but what the hell do your ears know? I mean really who are your ears to tell your brain what sounds are... | |
