| Onda Cables RMAF, anyone hear them or opinions ? They were at this year's RMAF. We had a chance to install their upper end line, including power cables, in our Purity Audio Design room on Saturday. They also used our Purity Silver Statement in their room the second half of the show. The Onda cab... | |
| world's best preamp closest to real sound stage I think this thread has gone in too many different directions. To expand on what Atmasphere said......Speakers do make a difference. Preamps do make a difference. The source makes a difference. Amplifiers do make a difference. Cables and the room ... | |
