| Help me pick some new or used speaker cables My experience is that Cardas Golden Reference is rolled off at both frequency extremes but has a wonderful midrange. I'm using some Audiomica cables that I've been enjoying for several years after being on the cable merry-go-round. | |
| I Don't Understand What Determines When A Thread Gets The Axe Yes curious minds would like to know. It was a very informative thread with good info. | |
| Smaller plug-in AC Purifiers -- Shunyata, iFi, Puron...something else? What do you like? @hilde45 just looked it’s on their blog page https://www.soundsofsilence.com/telos-mini-quantum-resonator-now-playing-at-sos/ You really only require one of these from my experience yes other options more might be better. | |

| Smaller plug-in AC Purifiers -- Shunyata, iFi, Puron...something else? What do you like? I have found the Telos Mini Q works excellent. https://telos-audio.com.tw/mini-quantum-resonator/ | |
| Borresen Loudspeakers Do you "need" a gizmo to showcase the speakers? No but if you are looking to get their best sound portrayed then a manufacturer does what he thinks will show off the room. But it can and did make a difference from what I heard. | |

| Ultimate Turntable search...OMA K5 or ? Yes heard the Kronos at Axpona last year with Vivid speakers if I recall and wasn't impressed in that room. Yes it was under show conditions. What turntable impressed me? The Reed in the Axiss Audio room using a Reed tonearm. Just my opinion YMMV | |
| Ultimate Turntable search...OMA K5 or ? @pindac curious "there are regular experiences of loaned products..." how one loans out $100 - 500k of 200- 500 pounds of these turntables? Amazing if that would ever happen here in the States! | |

| Soundsmith cartridges Thanks @drrsutliff can you tell me what cartridges you have compared your Hyperion to? What tonearm is it mounted on? I've only heard some lesser SM cartridges not in my system, and thought them very musical, also they seemed to track very well. | |
