Purist or Kubala-which to buy for entire system
"...my impression after speaking with Purist Audio was that the person in charge of labelling cords is perhaps over his head." I'm not sure what this means. Is the labeller so busy that he sometimes puts the wrong label on the right cord and vice-... 
Purist or Kubala-which to buy for entire system
Thanks Tvad. Do you have all US versions in your system? I'm wondering why the same power cord name but designed for different countries sounds so differently. 
Purist or Kubala-which to buy for entire system
I had been saving up to try a Purist Dominus power cord in my system. I was going to go for a good used one here on Audiogon, but I'm curious if anyone has contacted Purist to ask them what is the difference between the US, Japanese, and other int... 
She's on to me
It might appear humorous for now, but eventually if your wife loses trust in you, she'll start losing respect. Once the respect goes, the love will soon follow. Be careful. I know from experience. 
Speaker cables for Ref.3a De Capo i & Cayin A-88T
Hey, Saki. It's all about system synergy and what sounds best to you. You might just have to try out all three to make up your mind. Good luck. 
Speaker cables for Ref.3a De Capo i & Cayin A-88T
I'm not familiar with the Cayin equipment, but I have VAC amps and Reference 3A Dulcets and I have great synergy with biwired Acoustic Zen Satori.

Tube Characterization: 6DJ8, 6922, 7308 Part II
This was the only mention by Joe of the Tele 6922/6DJ8 and note it was the gold pin version which Albert doesn't like and Jafox hasn't tried. So far, I haven't agreed completely with Joe either, particularly regarding the Siemens Cca, which Joe li... 
Tube Characterization: 6DJ8, 6922, 7308 Part II
Quote from Joe's Tube Lore: Telefunken 6922 / E88CC (with shield, diamond bottom, gold pins) Slightly hollow mids, not as rich as the best Siemens and Amperex. A bit like the Siemens E288CC, though a bit better than that tube. A good tube, but th... 
Vandersteen 2Ce Signature Evolution
The last Vandersteen that I owned( and I still miss them) were the Model 2B( sold them in 1988). If the newest 2Ce are that much better, then I'm sure they're something special. What is unique about the Vandersteens is that they breathe life into ... 
Quicksilver Gold or Silver ?
I think there's a difference between the silver and gold versions, but it's not because one is made from silver and the other is gold. Gold, in general, does tend to have a warmer sound, but the new Quicksilver Gold is the Gold edition, not made o...

Quicksilver Gold or Silver ?
Mats, If you do a search you'll see that the Gold version is much improved over the silver. I have only tried the Gold but I like its improvements of my system to be quite substantial. There are a lot of comments about both vs. the competition in ...

Psychic, With all due respect to the late Bob Crump, what does Tplavas' quote have anything to do with ACME?
