| How Do You Feel about The Cable Game? Hifimaniac,I'm glad to hear you're enjoying your PHTs. I like to have some audio fun. I have no connection whatsoever to any audio company except as a customer. | |
| How Do You Feel about The Cable Game? Jmcgrogan2,I'm not mad at SR at all. I am having some fun with this. Did you miss the humor? -- a blacker shade of black, harkening back to Procol Harum's A Whiter Shade of Pale? I saw Procol Harum live in 1968 -- simply great. I use SR as an exam... | |
| PS Audio unveils their PS Audio Directstream DAC Jon2020,I think that's asking way too much -- in the realm of wishful thinking, for now. | |
| PS Audio unveils their PS Audio Directstream DAC Jon2020,That's not the way it works. There is no such thing as an instant install of all versions simultaneously -- and an instant comparison switch. You need to use an SD card for each version and reboot each time. | |
| PS Audio unveils their PS Audio Directstream DAC Jon2020,My system is not on the "dry side". I have a tube amp and a tube preamp.

| Modding Synergistic Research MPC to Galileo status Twochanneldave,I got much better results with Bybee accessories than with the SR speaker cells. You might want to look into their products. I am not connected in any way with them, by the way, except as a happy customer. | |
| Higher resolution Jazz Elizabeth,Sorry -- but "all of the 50s" was not mono. There was a lot of stereo in the 50s. | |
| Most overrated audio manufacturers? Judyazblues,I don't know about Atma-Sphere amps only being suitable for 5% of speakers. The odds were not on my side when I bought my Raidho C1.1 speakers. But my Atma-Sphere S-30 drives my Raidho speakers to perfection -- with the Paul Speltz aut... | |
| Anyone else making their own cables? Pkoegz,I make my own cables -- balanced ICs, speaker wires and PCs. I run the ICs in series with Elrod and Shunyata and the PCs in series with Shunyata. | |
