Breaking news! Jays Audio is moving to Texas and takes interest in McIntosh
I have always liked McIntosh and they get bashed simply because they are popular. If Jay is going with McIntosh then as far as I'm concerned, he's a sellout like many YouTuber's. People trash the magazines because they're sellouts and YouTuber's a... 
Heresy's II Finally Sound Right-sorry if there's a place i should have put this post....
Heresy II is one of my favorite jazz and blues speakers ever. If you add the right mix, they can perform very well. https://youtu.be/g3m7rxLsbss?si=9Sxkk3e9m5Oz1SxA  
Your journey with lower-watt tube amps -- Can a kit be good enough?
What are your thoughts on reducing the bias a bit on the voltage?  
Your journey with lower-watt tube amps -- Can a kit be good enough?
I use both the Dynaco ST70 and ST35. The ST35 uses solid state rectification by default, but if a proper solid state rectifier that heats the plates up slower is used with the ST70, there is a very audible improvement to the bass with lower effici... 
Volti audio upgrades for klipschorns
llg98ljk   Klipsch isn't building their heritage to price points at all. They've already doubled their prices? The hate comes from excessive pricing while lowering the quality of parts. You don't use cheaper parts and increase prices, you incr... 
Volti audio upgrades for klipschorns
The biggest issue with Klipsch is that they are charging absolutely absurd prices for cheaper parts. MDF is cheaper wood than good quality plywood. They literally doubled their prices even when corrected for inflation. This is typical corporate me...

That’s all it really is to me is aesthetics. Case closed  
Adding an extra 1ft to premium speaker cables
jl35, I already addressed the reason why I asked the question in the manner I did, so your comment about a troll is your own trolling. Your first response was “don’t do it” so obviously you didn’t know you were already doing it yourself, you just...

To the others, thanks for sharing your comments and experiences. audphile1, The term "faithful" is nothing new in audio. It's been used countless times in HiFi for decades. This is obviously a term you took for granted and/or are not familiar wi... 
Adding an extra 1ft to premium speaker cables
audphile1,  Just like any other cable denier you continue to try and stir something up.   I’m good with your honesty and I’m not completely in disagreement that cables can make a difference, just so you’re aware. For example, I recently had a s...

Adding an extra 1ft to premium speaker cables
audphile1, Let's put our cards on the table shall we. You wouldn't like any video no matter how it sounded. Your feathers were ruffled from the start and continue to be ruffled. You're just getting yourself all worked up over this.
