Sound of cables breaking in?
I've never believed in break-in until now. I'm currently going through cable break-in with my Clarus Crimson speaker cables, so this thread is perfect timing. I've had the Crimson cables for a couple of weeks. A couple of days ago my highs(cymbals...

Thanks to everyone that took the time to respond. I'm keeping my speakers, but I will continue to tweak my system.

pops, Thanks for the compliment! I haven't decided on a speaker change. I was thinking out loud and posted a question looking for suggestions on speakers to "listen" to as possible replacements. It's been a couple of weeks and I'm keeping my speak...

4425,I’ve owned Wilson Sophia 2s, 3s, and Sasha 1s. I’ve listened to Sasha 2s. I’ve moved away from Wilson and don’t know if I’ll ever own them again. When I owned them I argued with many people about how I thought they were the best. After being ...

I'm glad someone loves cables and cords. Finding the right cables is very tedious!  
This is for Georgehifi especially but others can chime in.
Just like everything else all of us have an opinion. I just don’t understand why Audio Doctor’s postings bothers people so much. We know he’s a dealer and as such will promote what he sells. Don’t "we" have enough sense to take what he says with a...

I did compare the Audioquest Diamond USB cable to the Wireworld Platinum USB cable. I preferred the WW, because the bass was more articulate, soundstage was bigger, and just a more natural and detailed USB cable.

Are there any Clarus Crimson speaker owners on Audiogon? If so, what  other cables have you compared them too?

I recently had a home audition of Shunyata Sigma, Audience A24 SX, Clarus Crimson, and my Wireworld Silver Eclipse 7. I preferred the Clarus, followed very closely by Audience. In my system the Clarus provides the best detail without being forward...

keithtexas,Thanks for the compliment. I understanding what you're saying about MIT cables; however at this point $13K is way, way outside of the range that I could spend on speaker cables. 
Wilson Audio Haters
4425,I've read jon5912's comments and they don't tell me anything about his financial status. Why can't individuals have an opinion about components without "some" of us resorting to personal attacks. When I had Sasha 1's my friend said, "they loo... 
Is my Amp OK?
We don’t know, what we don’t know...meaning the only way to find out if your amp is okay is to have home auditions of other amps. I love my amp and preamp also, yet I’ve been going back and forth asking myself if I can improve my current amp and p...
