| how can a line cord affect frequency response ? Mrt, I did read your post and I understood what you wrote. Please re-read my post and correctly understand what I wrote. You simply asked for an explanation and I gave ours. I didn't say that cabling that provides coloration duties was an evil thi... | |
| how can a line cord affect frequency response ? Hi Mrt.Since AC power cords seem to have kind of become my latest fascination, I'll chime in here.As important signal carrying cabling is, I've come to the conclusion that AC cords are a cabling system's foundation. Very good reason for this...thi... | |
| Help Me Explain Power Cables to my Guitar Friends Ask your buddies if they bought their guitars and strings based on scope measurements! Certainly, before I bought my drums, I had to have them measured with an accelerometer on a scope in an anechoic chamber!If your friends refuse to simply give a... | |
| Purist or Kubala-which to buy for entire system Sorry Steve. I think you finally crossed a line with me.You paint quite a different story here than our conversations and your post here mentioning RSAD is contradictory and misleading. Almost like you have an agenda. As a result, I see some impli... | |
| Cable Break-in....again? Thanks Shadorne. I appreciate that. ROCK on my friend.RobertRSAD | |
| Cable Break-in....again? Dear Sadone....Wow. That was authoritative....I wasn't trying to be authorative. Why did you see it that way? Please don't answer...I really don't care what you probably have to say seeing that you missed the point of my post anyway.Cheers!RobertRSAD | |
| Who is a big high end cable manufacturer Hi Dc.Impossible to remember one cable sound from another if the tests are not done at the same time.Perhaps this is a useful thought: Listen with your heart. You are absolutely correct when you say it's impossible (for most) to remember one cable... | |
| Who is a big high end cable manufacturer I've noticed Maybeleft3 is sounding more and more like another A'goNer who used to post here more often....Knows little of what he's talking about and nothing of any value or constructive to say, just the same ol' bla bla bla. Very tiring.As evide... | |
| Cable Break-in....again? Like it or not, cable burn in is a real phenomena. The problem is, and I suppose I don't really consider this a problem, not everyone perceives the difference. Just like I don't perceive absolute polarity to the same degree as my associate Steve..... | |
| Digital or Analog cables from Pre-Amp to Amp. The most efficient data transmission can result when all three components are the same...i.e. output impedance of a transport, characteristic impedance of the I/C and input impedance of a DAC. Otherwise, signal reflections will result to one degre... | |
| Digital or Analog cables from Pre-Amp to Amp. Hi 'x2.Despends on how the impedances are mismatched. Predominately, the cable's contribution will be dull or bright or, noisy or blunted transients. Whether the mismatch is on either side of the required impedance, efficient energy transmission i... | |
| Same CD/Album or Music ,In cable comparison, Just saw this thread for the first time. I'll whole heartedly agree with Newbe. The Opus 3 Test Record 1 is an absolute must have for system set up. The music is good too...I grew to apprciate it much. I have the vinyl of the recording. I've only ... | |
| Digital or Analog cables from Pre-Amp to Amp. Hi Rlew.Just taking your question at face value, you want analog I/Cs. Even when one is running I/Cs from a CDP or DAC to a preamp, you would want to use analog I/Cs.A digital I/C is commonly defined as an I/C whose characteristic impedance, not r... | |
| Products for raising cables off the floor. Hi Yi.Both but for different reasons. Wooden floors are prone to vibration which can feed through and smear imaging and even obscure small details. Obviously, a good carrier should isolate the cable from such an environment.Carpeted floors are pro... | |
| Which is more important - Interconnects or PCs? In addition to getting other enthusiasts opinions which can be useful but usually conclude little, wouldn't it be a good idea to also consult the manufacturer of whose cabling your using or interested in and let them give guidance specific to thei... |
