| How many quality interconnects to I need ? One cannot theorize on the location. You must try and listen, IME. | |
| Do you really need ultra expensive cables? The Valhalla as being the "reference standard" is fading, IMO. Many lower cost brands are besting it. Even Nordost is realizing this, see Nordost News:"Nordost is pleased to announce the release of the newest member to the micro mono-filament cabl... | |
| Interconnects & XLR cables for Bryston Amp/Preamp Consider the Pure Note Epsilon XLR's. They are very detailed. | |
| What do you use to burn in cables??? Just music. If have learned that some cables can sound worse with a burner. My Pure Notes, Siltechs, and even my old Valhallas took forever to come back after use with the AudioDharama cooker. And less than 24 hours cooking. I think Bob Crump and ... | |
| What power cord to use with the XA777ES? Looks like you will have to try a few cords. Cardas is known for darkness otherwise I have had good results with Pure Note Sigma pc on my Sony SCD-1. | |
| Power cord? Why? Timwat: You said it, it is about the music. The tech stuff gets a little dry. I will now head back to my sound room for my next concert.Oh, I thought Corona was a city in SOCAL... | |

| The Best kept Secret in Speaker Cables please? LOL! Good luck as everyone claims their cables are the best. I did have a chance to hear the OPUS and it is fantastic but even discounted to $20,000 it is not worth it. You might want to try Siltech G3 which is not bad. I think you will want to tr... | |
| Interconnects with Eichmann bullet plugs? Seems like these plastic plugs are the latest craze. Don't like using a hair dryer to get them to fit. Still like a good quality metal plug like Cardas silver RCAs. | |
| UL certification and insurance I believe the cord must be submitted to UL for testing and certification. If there is a UL label on the cord then it is certified. | |
| Proper Cable Placement. Darrylhifi:I also use the Pure Note clamps and they do not alter the sound in any way. They are simply a wire management device to keep the cables neat and away from other cables like power cords. | |
| Pure Note Epsilon cable directionality. Jose: As you probabaly know I have owned Pure Note cables for the past year and am quite satisfied. I have also reversed the cables and have heard some changes. It really depends on the equipment. Tom says the end opposite the label is the "shield... | |
| Empirical???????? Do a search. Lots of info on Empirical.Your should also consider Pure Note and Ridge Street. | |
| Audioquest is bright?? Perhaps it it break-in. Put about 200 hours on them and then decide. |
