| Cable Snake Oil Antidote Yup. Poorly designed and poorly matched gear will be affected audibly by the slight impedance of a cable. High fidelity gear will not. | |
| Have you ever hated the sound of your system one day, and loved it the next? +1 ieales except that the “properly functioning system” although representative of the majority of “Hi-Fi” is NOT at all high fidelity if all these extraneous factors audibly affect the sound. It is possible to find electronics equipment that is n... | |
| We Need A Separate Forum for Fuses If a mere fuse caused any audible change in sound in any of my equipment then you can be assured I would be rid of that useless POS boat anchor equipment in a flash. If a mere fuse makes an audible difference in your gear then you can be pretty mu... | |

| Have you ever hated the sound of your system one day, and loved it the next? @clearthink A simple trick is to buy the same gear that is used by professionalslike Sting, Pink Floyd, Diana Krall and Mark Knopfler. Folks who make a very successful living from making music tend to demand good quality as well as good reliabili... | |
| Have you ever hated the sound of your system one day, and loved it the next? This is normal. What you hear is subjective and will be heavily influenced by your mood and whether you have a cold, slept well or not etc.Also much boutique equipment is finicky and very unreliable (like tubes).This is probably the single biggest... | |
| Best analytical loudspeakers for strings (midrange)? -1 Elizabeth - you just haven’t heard really good speakers if you think headphones are better for hearing detail. | |

| We Need A Separate Forum for Fuses These special fuses cost more than the latest and greatest DAC chips!what a joke | |
| Classic Over-reaction! You obviously need SR fuses for the toaster! | |
| Speaker alternatives Try ATC if you want more dynamics and resolution. Frankly what you have is a hard act to follow and must obviously be a good fit for you already. | |
| speakers with balls Agree with comments above. Your shortlist is frankly pathetic for AC/DC Big Balls. More like Holly Cole & Norah Jones & Sirius XM Coffeehouse speakers in my mind. | |
| We Need A Separate Forum for Fuses Common sense says that if fuses make a big difference to electronic circuits then why isnt there a market for $50 or $100 fuses for toasters and all other electrical devices? Show me the display at Home Depot or Best Buy or an automotive shop with... | |
| We Need A Separate Forum for Fuses GeoffNo strawman. You claim a fuse affects the audio signal sound. I agree with you. It certainly will affect the audio sound if the component is very badly designed. I claim aim that a well designed component will be unaffected audibly by a chang... | |
| where best to spend $2-3000 upgrade dollars in my system According to the shills for TC and SR, you can totally transform your system to “a proverbial jaw dropping experience” with any number of snake oil tweaks. The claim is that these tweaks are better than any equipment upgrade. Magically the tweaks ... |
