| Good, Neutral, Reasonably Priced Cables? Sean, thanks for the technical appraisal of zobel networks, I didn't follow all of it but I understand the basic principal of operation and why they are needed. This is of interest to me since I just ordered a pair of Goertz MI3 Biwires, and thoug... | |
| Review: Rogue Audio Zeus Tube amp Thanks for the great review. I'm surprised that you moved away from the Innersound amp, since I would have thought that was tough to beat with the Eros.I'm on the lookout for a good tube amp to replace a Krell on my Maggie 3.6's so I'll check out ... | |
| Design Criteria For External Crossover Box Thanks Tim, I did the fuse bypass mod on the weekend and also shorted out the tweeter attenuators, the results were excellent, the sound is more dynamic, but at the same time more fluid and effortless.I just ordered Cardas binding posts to replace... | |

| Good, Neutral, Reasonably Priced Cables? Sean, assuming that a cable meets a reasonable level of design integrity, is it your opinion that the process of evaluating the different designs (sonic evaluation) becomes random and unpredictable?Would you agree that design integrity could be of... | |
| Tell us compliments received on your system... A couple of friends visited our place for the first time about a month back, and after dinner, both of them got up without saying anything and started dancing in the middle of the living room!...OK, they were pretty loaded on booze, but what the h... | |
| Tube Amp for Magnepan 3.6 - Rogue Zeus/VTL-MB450 Aroc, I can't add anything new to this thread, only to reinforce what has already been said, particularly Tireguy's comments relating to high powered amps and specifically their capacity to deliver current.I learned the hard way with my 3.6's, bei... | |
| Review: Magnepan MG-3.6r Speaker Hotsauce, I took your advice and yes it looks easy to bypass the tweeter attenuator link on the 3.6. The 3.6 uses push on spade connectors, so I'm going to try and find some brass ring connectors to replace them. I couldn't believe how cheap the w... | |
| Review: Magnepan MG-3.6r Speaker Thanks for the input, it's great to hear other peoples experiences with Maggie's, and thanks for the various emails that I received regarding the post.John, I'm envious that you are using Wolcotts, I've heard others say that this is an exceptional... | |
| Best drink while listening to your rig? This post reminds me of the popular sitcom 'Father Ted', where 3 Catholic priests share a parish on Craggy Island. One of them (Father Jack) is a hardened alcoholic who has been known to drink brake fluid, floor polish and cough medicine, basicall... | |

If you have a 12' wide typical listening room, with the speakers 7' apart, you... | |

| What other obsessions do you have? "I have soared to over 31,000 feet, stayed aloft for 7 1/2 hours, and flown a distance of 500 KM, all without an engine."Had the same experience as Shventus with some good wacky backy and a bottle of Jack.... | |
| How Much Time do You Surf on Audiogon? I figure about four 15 minute visits each day. But according to St. Augustine, time is "an illusionary product of our mind" - so actually, it may be longer, or it may be less . And since someone else (Berlioz I think?) stated "Time is a great teac... |
