I Just Don't Hear It - I wish I did
In the case of your example with the copper coupler, I hear no difference. But I have dc charged cables. Certainly the are other examples of tweaks giving very modest or no improvements and even ones that at first I think are improvements only to ... 
Who has dumped the power conditioner?
Forty-seven times I have dumped my power conditioner. I have the SR PowerCell now and very happy, but given my record it will probably go someday. Most of the time on removing the power conditioner, like you, I prefer not having one. Recently, how... 
Unit off tubes gowing
Unplug it. 
Synergistic New Tesla Line...Any comments?
Sherod, go to SR page and look under Tesla and at bottom Tunneling footage. 
Synergistic New Tesla Line...Any comments?
They did treat some cheaters for me and apparently are considering having them available. But you know that I have the H-Cat P12R which almost necessitates having only the line stage grounded. I don't know, nor do they, how many need such outstand... 
Synergistic New Tesla Line...Any comments?
Sherod, you are not overlooking the Teslaplex; it is not on their site. It strikes me that it is a normal Leviton hospital grade outlet, but the zapping does wonders. I also have normal Home Depot cheaters that have been zapped. If you compare the... 
Cheap tweaks...What would YOU reccomend?
Spatialking, you can glue the corks at different levels and hang them between the speakers and the first reflection point on your celling. Few of us bother with this reflection. 
Synergistic New Tesla Line...Any comments?
Bacardi, I assume you have no PowerCell. If so, plug directly into the wall. You will have fewer contacts.Flashunlock, I used the Sanders Sound Magtech amp into the PowerCell. This amp has 500 watts per side and sounded excellent into the PowerCel... 
Synergistic New Tesla Line...Any comments?
Bacardi, the Precision ic is recommended for between line stage and amp. It is very fast.I compared the Tesla T2, Precision AC, and Hologram A on my H-Cat amp. The Precision was third, the T2 next, and the Hologram A clearly best. The Precision is... 
Experiences with Tripoint Audio Apollo
Two threads on the TriPoint; both right on. 
Tripoint Audio Apollo Experiences WOW
Just got one yesterday. You are right. 
Copper Sleeve over IEC
Why would this have an effect? Does it reduce vibrations of the copper coupler and the chassis? 
Cable Elevators killed my bass
I don't have any experience with Cable Elevators but have long had Suspenders from Rightway Audio that preceded them. Apart from the rubber bottom pad both seem to share the basic shape and use of ceramics. Quite contrary to what has been said abo... 
Speaker Technology over the last 10 years
Rebbi, at the Rocky Mountain Audio Fest, Stereophile had a amp seminar which consisted of showing how sensitive to the load an unnamed amp was relative to the Boulder amp. The measure was THD. Everyone was asking technical questions as to how Boul... 
Fed Ex Ground Shipping Woes
Yes, Audiogon needs to say this is the normal way to deal with this situation. I once sold a quality turntable to a guy that FedEx Ground nearly destroyed and returned to me. Even the FedEx guy who returned it said "it looks like we did our best t...
