| what speaker cable would you select? I think you'll find your answer in this recent thread:http://forum.audiogon.com/cgi-bin/fr.pl?fcabl&1114120275&-IMO | |
| Experience with power conditioners Gandme, Dedicated lines help minimize AC noise induced by appliances and dimmers in your home and help ensure that your amplifier is getting all the juice it needs for those dynamic and/or complex passages.But dedicated lines will not cleanse the ... | |
| Do i need AC conditioner w/dedicated AC lines? Dirty AC comes primarily from the pole, not the house. Dedicated lines help isolate the stereo from appliances, dimmers, and other noise-inducing household items.Supposedly dedicated lines do not help with isolating the bi-directional digital nois... | |

| I need a speakercable that bring voices forward me Rsbeck, perhaps it's because they realize certain characteristics of those cables in their own systems. Just like recommending a transport, an amp, or anything else. They are simply are recommending them to try in the next system.On the other hand... | |
