| Review: Dunlavy Audio Labs SC-IVa I replaced all the screws holding the speakers with stainless steel screws. Didn't replace the crossover screws. | |
| Review: Dunlavy Audio Labs SC-IVa The speaker binding post replacement and elimination of the brass in the signal path have made a noticeable improvement in my IVAs. I would suggest this mod to IVA owners. Cost should be well under $200 with perhaps 2-3 hours of labor. Well worth ... | |
| Acoustic Zen Adagio, How Good Are They? IMO: It's strange that none of this stuff is on the AZ net site. | |
| Acoustic Zen Adagio, How Good Are They? Read somewhere that AZ is working on a sub for the Adagios. Anyone heard the sub or have have any info on them? Sounds like the monitors and sub might be the ultimate setup for these. | |
| VD Revelation Speaker cables - In all fairness, I knew these cables were stiff before I bought them. But having never dealt with such a stiff cable I just wasn't in the proper mindset to work with them. Also, the speaker terminals were recessed quite a bit into the speaker cabi... | |
| cable dielectric cause of artificial sound Several cable manufacturers are using cotton dielectric. Has anyone identified a sonic signature for cotton compared to PTFE? | |
| VD Revelation Speaker cables - I've got a Bi-wire set of Revelations on the living room floor. Never heard them yet because I broke a speaker binding post when I tried to install them. Yes they are stiff but I think everything will be OK when I get in the mindset that they can ... | |

| When will Wadia 581 be available Sprbggr,Could you clarify? When you say that Krell is more reliable than Wadia, do you mean the company or the product or both? | |
| Acoustic Zen Adagio, How Good Are They? Just because someone sells a speaker doesn't mean it's not any good. Using your reasoning would indicate that all speakers for sale on Audiogon involve some sort of hype. There are many reasons for selling a speaker. | |
| Review: Dunlavy Audio Labs SC-IVa I've ordered new Cardas binding posts for my IVAs because I broke one. Currently the wires to the speaker posts are not soldered directly to the post but have soldered rings that are held to the posts by the nuts. Is there any benefit to soldering... | |
| To cryo or not to cryo Pluto forever!!! | |
| To cryo or not to cryo The problem with that approach on this particular question is that there are those who vehimently deny any possible effect from cryo'ing and those that say it can make a sonic difference. The opinions on such a volatile issue seem to cancel each o... | |
| To cryo or not to cryo There is a very simple test to replace all the speculation and angst about the subject. Try an identical outlet, cryo'd and non-cryo'd. Can you hear a difference? If there is a difference is it an improvement? Personal experience has shown me that... |
