| How Do You Feel about The Cable Game? Colekat,I could not have said it better than when you stated, "if you get hooked into the big boys game, your gonna throw money money at ghosts. I mean what happens with thier [sic] prior offerings, suddenly they suck!" | |
| How Do You Feel about The Cable Game? Cal3713 and Geoffkait,Albert Einstein said, "Not everything that can be counted counts, and not everything that counts can be counted." I agree with him. | |

| Grover Huffman GH RCA ZX+ cables vs... Acrylics,You cannot believe I am still "carrying on"? What's to believe? I am simply "carrying on" the conversation from a while back where I promised to provide the evidence I was referring to. I don't believe it is astonishing that I am followin... | |
| Gabriel Gold IC's are they really this good? Sutts,I talked about the GG price/performance ratio in an earlier thread. Steve's inappropriate response was to ridicule my company's products -- and me personally, which I found astonishing. Very unprofessional, IMO. By the way. I am not in the a... | |
| How Do You Feel about The Cable Game? Raks,You hit the nail on the head -- the bang for the buck. Many cable makers get away with audio murder -- inferior cables at superior prices. There is another thread at the moment that highlights this very thing with a cable maker -- not Synergi... | |
| Thoughts on the Signal Path Mapman,I agree that the length and complexity of the signal path mean nothing, per se. But in spite of proof to the contrary there are those who steadfastly maintain that any unnecessary lengthening of the signal path must, ipso facto, degrade sou... | |
| How Do You Feel about The Cable Game? Cal3713,Kindly explain what you mean here. | |
| NAD M51 -- Used as a preamp I used my NAD M51 as a preamp and it was very good. But I have since upgraded to the PS Audio DS DirectStream DAC that outclasses the NAD M51. If you are in the market for a change I would suggest you think about picking up a DS DAC on the after m... | |
| Bricasti M1 DAC vs PS Audio Direct Stream DAC Aolmrd1241,I am aware some others feel the same way as I do. I am happy to have 1.2.1. I hope that a future version is more compatible with my system than PP. System dependence often comes into play. | |
| Cheap tweaks...What would YOU reccomend? Ozzy,Thanks very much for this useful information. I will have to try them out. | |
| Thoughts on the Signal Path I have a tube amp and a tube preamp. When I run the system without the preamp the sound is awful. For others this may not be the case. I don't think that the length of the signal path has anything to do with sound quality. Some folks swear by a sh... | |
| How Do You Feel about The Cable Game? Knghifi,How awful -- humor at a company's expense -- or at an industry's expense -- heaven forbid. From the point of view of cable companies, everything is at the customer's expense. So why not turn the tables with a bit of humor and look at thing... | |
| Cheap tweaks...What would YOU reccomend? Ozzy,Thanks for letting me know. How many are you using and where are you placing them? Do they have to be touching wires and components? | |
| Bricasti M1 DAC vs PS Audio Direct Stream DAC Aolmrd1241,Pike's Peak is not as good as 1.2.1 in my system. Perhaps future versions will produce a better result for me. |
