| why do people feel the need to buy expensive cable What can I say, after listening to Clarity cables on several occasions ( as opposed to, say, just looking at them on the interwebs ) can confirm that, to my ear at least, they are great sounding cables that "punch" way above their price point.And ... | |

| Doug Schroeder Method, Double ic Yeah, no Lenz's law issues which can really mess up cable performance.And hope your build works out and meets your expectations. | |
| Doug Schroeder Method, Double ic Well it most certainly is the right tool to put the flat-earthers back on their heels ( at least the ones who claim that cables couldn’t possibly make a difference ). Unfortunately the measurement chapter still has a bone to gnaw on since the meas... | |
| Doug Schroeder Method, Double ic Sorry to disagree but the TEO cables are not shielded ( btw we are very much in the non-shielded camp ) and they work quite wonderfully in both the splitter way to produce a double IC and the co-joined method ( our Double Double series ). | |

| Do speaker cables need a burn in period? @prof" Using my current Thiel 2.7 speakers this is true, but it was eve more true with my bigger 3.7 speakers. I could go to my friend’s place, listen to a system using $50,000 of Nordost cable and come home to bass reproduction that easily surpas... | |

| Do speaker cables need a burn in period? @NonoiseMy pleasure, and btw your comments started the ball rolling on that deluge of verbiage, and then that listening session I mentioned earlier kicked it into overdrive.Its funny, that "mystery" cable was not bad at all, in fact it had a very ... | |
| Do speaker cables need a burn in period? @prof "May I ask (just in case you were serious): How in the world do you think a cable could cause "one note bass?" (That is a cable that wasn't flat out defective)."Seems we may have gotten to a " the rub " moment. So here is the thing, a no... | |
| Do speaker cables need a burn in period? @prof" Admittedly with the lack of seriousness in the thread, combined with many of the weird things claimed in the audiophile domain, we can get in to a Poe’s Law situation.. "Gotta say that is a very odd thing for a fundamentalist to bring up. |
