| Anticables You are correct, they are very cheap in quanity. Curse this brain tumor. I think it was something like magnet wire, likely wrong! | |
| Which is better Coax or Optical cables I have the Oyaide but the Transparent is better but more money. I had one and sold it but missed it so much I bought another. Big sound difference between brands. | |
| Selling speakers to a buyer in Russia? I sent a cartridge to France and a Tone Arm to Australia. And another cartridge to Canada but of course that is in the US. Just kidding Eh! All went fine! | |
| Why does it take so many hours to brea in arc preamps and amps? My passive pres work right away. Just kidding, I have many others which need break in! | |

| Michigan Maple Block Query I have used them and they were good. Also used some generic cutting board ones. All were better than nothing. Again a million opinions. I have had very good luck with MIGs metal vibration absorbers. Their downside is they can slide. Spell check ou... | |
| Who thinks $5K speaker cable really better than generic 14AWG cable? They are all different! I just got a pair of well reviewed budget cable , pro audio type, to compare with the ones I had been using I have just remembered that they were Mogami. I did hear a big difference even though I hoped I would not ! Siltec... | |
| My journey to search for standmount bookshelf speakers... I have had Spendors since they came out and still use them off and on despite having had many other more exotic ones over the years. They simply have an accurate sound that does not exaggerate any part of the music. What there is on there is what ... |
