| High Fidelity Cables CT-1designed by Rick Schultz Lak, I haven't tested magnet-based adapters on non HFC wires but my experience with the less expensive CT-1 pc versus the U R H would suggest that more magnets is always better.I'm going to try them on my Enhanced phono cables, however. | |
| Since solder is such a poor conductor, why use it? Almarg, I'm not recommending wire-wrap only something superior to solder. Mini welding would seem the best solution. | |
| Since solder is such a poor conductor, why use it? Davec113, yes, solder is good for holding in place, but so is super glue. It is not conductive, however, and may harm the cables. However, the solder even for tightly crimped wires would flow between the wires.Use a length of solder wire in a circ... | |
| High Fidelity Cables CT-1designed by Rick Schultz Calvinj, nicely worded! | |
| High Fidelity Cables CT-1designed by Rick Schultz Yep, you are right. | |
| High Fidelity Cables CT-1designed by Rick Schultz This is getting so critical. Last evening I was listening to vinyl, in particular to Lena Horne's Watch What Happens and I had done what I do to each LP, namely use a brush to sweep it clean and the Walker Audio magnet to remove static, on the pre... | |
| High Fidelity Cables CT-1designed by Rick Schultz Mapman, since there are hundreds of magnets in the top lines, I doubt, even were your post to be sincere, if you will ever see any field coils. The purpose of the HFC design is to get rid of the magnetic fields. Electromagnets, however, use magnet... | |

| High Fidelity Cables CT-1designed by Rick Schultz Ddraudt, Rick tells me that the new CT-1 UR H cables are intended for linestages, phono, and other source. I probably will never hear a system with all Pro pcs, other than by visiting Rick's systems, but I have Pros on my H-Cat amp and on my HFC W... | |
| Absolute top tier DAC for standard res Redbook CD Ctsooner, I fully understand your position. I've been at this since the late 1960s when I taught at Florida State U. Tallahassee had about 50,000 people and three stereo dealers. Then there were about five manufacturers of electronic components fe... | |
| Best High End Audio Manufacturer??? Melbguy1, I would love to hear their big horns, even though I would never buy them. | |
| Best undiscovered speakers on the market today ? Bcgator, I won't hold my breath. I've heard talk about a definitive top-end speaker.The BMC Arcadias replaced my Tidal Contriva diceras, but back when I was younger I had Retilinear IIIs and Behorns. | |
| Best undiscovered speakers on the market today ? Bcgator, I still remember at CES when Carlos just plunked down the Pure Vox in his room and connected them to the amps. They are indeed quite impressive. But they lack the bass that is evident in the BMC Arcadias, which are, of course, more expens... | |
| Absolute top tier DAC for standard res Redbook CD Guidocorona, I have been involved with a pro guy in Canada for some years now and have had success with a heavily modified Mac Mini using JRiver MC 21 for a digital sound that easily surpasses what I ever heard on a cd player. I was playing double... | |
| Absolute top tier DAC for standard res Redbook CD Mattnshilp, well I certainly would not think you would want to introduce "magic pixie dust" to start a discussion. I have limited experience with anything you introduce and some of which I have never heard of. All that I have ever owned of these p... |
