| Does coloring the edges of CD's help the sonics? If it is true, how does it work? If you believe something works then your mind will often trick you into thinking it did something positive.If you can't measure a difference and demonstrate it repeatedly with measurements from independent labs - ... | |
| Best U.S.A. speakers? LOL. Macrojack. The marketing hyperbole is all manufactured in the USA and the assembly of foreign built parts is also done here - that is what counts!!! | |

| has anyone tried ultrabit platinum on their cds Be careful it only works in combination with a tourmaline hair dryer ;-) just kidding. | |
| Stuck on cabinet color Light colors on floorstanders make them conspicuous - not a good idea. Dark colours are much more popular if you ever need to sell it. Dark colors will match more things that light colors. | |
| Greatest Rock Guitar Riffs Here are some repetitive ones of the simpler variety that you can never get out of your head (once you've heard the song). Some are mind numbingly simple but like Beethovens 5th - the simple ones stick. Queen - Another one bites the dustQueen - We... | |
| Speaker cable for ATC scm 19 I'd suggest copper cable with a decent number of strands (79). A reasonable number of strands will make for a flexible cable and ensure good contact at the binding post (low bending moment on the post and easy to flatten for large surface area con... | |

If you are talking dynamic Hi-Fi speakers and panels They are generally extremely com... | |
| Cable Burn In Problem Shadorne, you cheeky monkey, you.Yes. I am being cynical again.....I know and accept that many will disagree but concerns about cable break in are,IMHO, bordering on paranoia...just play the music and enjoy it for goodness sake...Frankly if a sys... | |

| Mid life audio crisis Congrats Monty! Good to hear that you survived the crisis and are doing fine! | |
| Thinking of upgrading speakers, any suggestions? Here is a link to an interview with Roger QuestedSting is a customer of Roger's and so are several other famous musicians and studios. If you read the article you get the impression that he was so frustrated with speaker technology of the 70's tha... | |
| Thinking of upgrading speakers, any suggestions? Oh one thing - if you want that "live factor" then you can pretty much forget everything in dynamic speakers except ATC, PMC and Genelecs. Forget about panels too. One good option which also might work for you would be large horns - Meyers, Westla... | |
