power cable tryout High fidelity cables has me wondering..... need suggestions now Are you familiar with expectation bias? | |
Power cord upgrade You'll never know what has the perfect "synergy" without trying every power cable available (but none make an objective difference). Happy hunting. | |
Amp Stands - Wood or Stone See if you can get some of that fancy Cardas wood but beware, if the price per inch is equal to what they charge for those tiny cable supports (that do nothing for the sound), you'll be shelling out big $$$. | |
Just upgraded to Fiber Optic feed ( 500Mbps) from Spectrum (250 Mbps) OMG | |
Speakers or Turntable upgrade Speakers will almost always make a more noticable difference than anything else in a system. With your budget, there are many options especially if you buy used . Happy hunting. | |
AA for us The thing that I've found helpful is stop reading message boards where people talk about how great component x is or speaker y is. Secondly, be comfortable with your system and not be looking for the next thing to "upgrade." Lastly, when people te... | |
Unplated copper spades/banana On the conductivity scale, copper and gold are very similar and you won't hear an actual difference with the only useful testing (blind) but bare copper will tarnish and need to be cleaned periodically. | |
Transparent Audio power cords Why are the gen 5 and gen 6 a "step up" other than in price? By the way, power cords make no objective difference. | |

Quick question for the Cables Don't Make a Difference Crowd. My system sounds great as is so why would I want to spend more money to prove what I already know? | |
End of a long quest to vanquish sibilance. Seeing as how speakers are the only possible thing that might produce "sibilance" I'd have checked those first, but maybe that's just me. | |
Need Opinions for Different Cable Manufacturers/Cable Designs You won't make any difference, much less a "vast" difference just by using even the most expensive cables ( which is how almost everything is judged, by price). Expectation bias is real. | |
DH Labs - Shunyata Cable Comparison Seems like a lot of effort and money spent on things that make no objective difference. | |
New speakers for a new start? I would look at the GoldenEar line. They have a variety of options in a good price range. I've been very happy with the Triton 2+ |
