Comparison between the Bryston 7BSST² and the Bryston 7B³
I have just installed 2 7b3s so I can directly compare with the 7bsst2. My opinion now confirms my previous comparison Tighter and a bit stronger - noticably 
Linking xlrs together
Many thanks for the practical aspects, greatly appreciated as I would not want to install unless the results were considered to be ok. Once 2 x 1.5s were installed inertia may take place about getting 3m  and I would always be wondering and being ... 
Linking xlrs together
I am asking because I cannot compare 1 x 3m Sky cable with 2 x 1.5m cable, as I do not have a 3m cable. So there is nothing to trust as I cannot compare. Hence question ... if anyone else had tried such a thing and has been able to suss out any di... 
Comparison between the Bryston 7BSST² and the Bryston 7B³
I posted on another thread that the b3 is quite a different sound to the sst2s.Tighter and a bit stronger. I have am awaiting delivery of a pair of 7b3s to go with a pair of 28bsst2s and a 4b3.I wonder if anyone can help with suggesting the combin... 
Dual AES EBU - a near future use, or a bit before its time
Thanks Esoteric - interestingMy Bdp2 does not downsample, it streams what it gets into the dac, so I was a bit nonplussed by the dCS manual as to what precisely the Bridge does. It does seem to be an excellent feature, not in any other streamer I ... 
Why don't amplifier Companies use high end fuses?
2 issues jump out at me here:-1 - Why don't they .......2 - Who listens to an engineer anyway?1 - In the same way re fuses, if power cables made such a difference to an amp why do hi end manufacturers bundle bog standard cables in the box . And if... 
802d or 800d
If you think the 802d is physically unstable - have you tried to shift one?Methinks surely not.I had a set of three 802d2s across the front a few years ago and when I sold them I struggled with the ability to move them!I cannot envisage any normal... 
Dog Proof Speaker Stands For Harbeth SHL5Plus Speakers
If not too difficult to move,  move into a safe position when not listening. You must be not listening for far more time than listening. I do this for my 3rd system where the middle surround is in an open plan gap between rooms. It is not onerous ... 
Hi-res digital audio vs sacd
I have a Meridian 800dvd/cd player and run it to compare with a Bryston bdp2 streamer, streaming wav mainly, which is far superior to flac (imho!!).The Meridian must be the best second hand value for money ever - superb quality at now almost negli... 
My Dog Broke-in My New Purist Audio Bi-Wired Cables
My dog chewed and I was successful in claiming it was a one off. A series of events are not covered I was told. 
ProAc comparison
I first started this game with Proac EBS Studios back in er ... a long time ago!. 1977??They were driven by Meridian 101 and 105 monoblocks and the sound was great. Eventually I went totally Meridian and via numerous changes ended up with the top ... 
Connect banana jumpers to locking banana speaker cables?
As I have posted before - Proac for example have told me it makes no difference what post the amp is connected to then jumpers to the others. I have not tested that as my brain says lower first, but I do not know definitively. 
Bi-wires links for speakers ?
I am always surprised (yet again) by those who insist "it doesn't make a difference" . when it does. Either they have a crap system that not much makes a difference or they have cloth ears. or probably both.After trying various Nordost  up to the ...
