Great speaker sounds terrible in my room?
l-f reinforcement @jjss49 - I Googled it, I'm not that lazy to not bother to look, but I couldn't find it, please elaborate? You're not talking about HAAS effect are you?  
As a chill electronica listener, should I stop at a Med-Fi system?
@fai_v some people have system pages here in the forum. I really appreciate them actually, the time someone goes to putting one up. It may be humbling to see some crazy money spent and just the incredible systems people have. Take for example ghd... 
Silversmith Fidelium Speaker Cables
@glory do you believe you have found an end game cable? (mythical cable that stops you from efforts to keep looking, I say mythical, because let's face it if you happen to come across something better, you're not going to ignore it are you?!) Or ... 
As a chill electronica listener, should I stop at a Med-Fi system?
Talofa @fai_v (yes, I’m making assumptions) I am into chill and EDM, downtempo trance, and acoustic chill, a highly resolving system will be enjoyable, so long as you’re not breaking the bank. As others have taught me, the room the system is in m... 
REVIEW: Silversmith Fidelium Speaker Cables
And that Jeff Smith is a terrific guy with an intense science background. A pleasure to deal with. A scholar and a gentleman, it's a cliche, except he certainly was that when I met him in Washington for both days. He went to MCs and we all went...

@ozzy millercarbon also preferred his Townshend F-1 and I have now heard both. Yeah the F-1 are also good, I’m used to ribbon cables, I preferred the Fideliums on the days.    
REVIEW: Silversmith Fidelium Speaker Cables
My 30 day trial with Jeff didn't end well. I simply couldn't return them, and worse than that, when he finally releases the XLR interconnects - I'm going to have to buy them as well. Because they are the best I have yet heard.  
Innuos Zenith Mk3 Ultra-low Noise USB Audio Output, Really?
@sns @martin-andersen I went a different path, instead of higher processing power, I went lower wattage. My thinking is that by lowering the power needed the lessening of the electrical jitter, and I also went commercial grade low power fanless ... 
Innuos Zenith Mk3 Ultra-low Noise USB Audio Output, Really?
@sns I have the Jcat Femto USB card on my server. I use a 300w HDPlex LPS, an 8watt embeded commercial grade fanless mainboard with a couple of SSD, it’s a few years old now. I’m sure there’s better solutions, seems you’ve found some already and ...

I have some Mad Scientist Audio Graphene contact enhancer. Hey, I have Mad Scientist Heretical Digital Cable 1 meter KLE Absolute Harmony silver RCA. I have their graphene pucks on XLR connectors too. My former employer and friend, is good fri... 
About users with hidden agendas
@mahgister my system page is unorthodox too, maybe not quite as much as yours. My stuff is sitting on the floor and springs, and what I built I've got DIY photos of partial assembly, not likely to make the cover of a magazine I'm afraid. What's e...

@tsushima1 well of course I'm not condoning that. Seriously?    
About users with hidden agendas
@mahgister you’re one of the lads in here, few are foolish enough to argue with you. You do what you do with what you have, resourcefulness and ingenuity are your shield and sword. I have read what you’ve said many times, and weighed it up with ... 
About users with hidden agendas
Maybe I'm missing something here? A fellow called Gene basically calls Synergistic Research products snake oil, and indirectly (or directly?) Ted Denney a liar. By the way, I've been called a liar in Agon myself, I think the exact words were, "rix...

People are claiming it actually enhances the sound. More than once I've come across things in here that seemed strange, perhaps nonsensical and they are used with great success. For example, a little black box with inductors, transformers and capa...
