| Speaker wire is it science or psychology tireguy - What gauge wire were they using, how long was it and what roughly was the db variation in frquency response? Was it mostly in the high frequencies or in the mid and lows as well? Thanks. | |
| Speaker wire is it science or psychology Thanks Tireguy, I will get and check it out. | |
| Speaker wire is it science or psychology Thanks for your post folks, its been fun. | |
| Speaker wire is it science or psychology No Money - I know no one writing here is going to pay any attention to what I say. And I have said my piece - your right, not much point in saying it over and over again. I just thought there might be a few readers out there who have not accepted ... | |
| Speaker wire is it science or psychology Jostler - Come on, I started out giving people here credit for understanding that it is not fair to compare differnt size wires. Then I realised I couldn't do that and included that the wire had to be the same size for a fair comparision. I will g... | |
| Chang lightspeed VS ESP powerdistributor These devices are not in the signal path and will not improve the sound of your system. This kind of product is a hoax. I am not exagerating. Ironically, power amps are a source of power line distortion rather than a victum of it. The power suppli... | |
| Monster HTM 3500 conditioner is noisy Throw it out. Line conditioners are the biggest hoax in audio. It is this kind of non-sense that makes audiophiles the subject of derision in engineering circles. | |
| Amp Suggestions please... A properly designed amplifier will not interact with the speakers. Power amplifiers are supposed to be voltage sources. Their output voltage is the product of their gain times the input voltage. One of the design goals of good amps is to not have ... | |
| Chang lightspeed VS ESP powerdistributor The outlet will be better. | |
| componet/cable burn-in Jostler is correct. And for the record, manufactures must have a very low opinion of the general intelligence of audiophiles or they would not put arrows on their cables. | |
| Blind Listening Tests? The rodie for the Greatful Dead could actually see the distortion from the speakers. I know, some of you may scoff at this, but for those of us with highly developed audio abilities blind testing is clearly out of the question. | |
| Extension Cord There are several hundred miles of wire between you and the power station a few more feet won't make any difference. | |
| cable length Four foot or eight foot makes no difference. You only need wire large enough to deep from degrading the damping factor of your amp. Power cords are not in the signal path and therefore cannot effect fidelity. They only need to be big enough to del... | |
| cable help ? We don't hear differences when there are none because there is something wrong with us. It's simply normal behavior. | |
| Silver or copper cables? Silver wire has about 10% lower resistance. If you were to go from 16 gauge silver to 14 gauge copper, the copper wire would have about 50% less resistance.The same is true going from 14 silver to 12 copper. |
