High Fidelity Cables CT-1designed by Rick Schultz
Calvinj, did the system have HFC power cords? I think they are more impressive than the ics and speakerwires. And using them throughout ones system would be more expensive that ics and speaker wires. But wow! 
How good is the Oppo 105 as a DAC?
As a dac, it is nowhere near the BMC PureDac. 
What direction should Hi Fi tune fuse be installed
Mapman, basic but ignored. Any motion of a wire results in unwanted signal induced by the motion reflected in the magnetic field and thus into your music. 
What direction should Hi Fi tune fuse be installed
Geoffkait, I aware of all you say about magnetic fields, etc. I also know that many have worked with magnetics for years. I knew a guy who put a series of transformers in a box at right angles to each other so as to reduce the influence of the mag... 
What direction should Hi Fi tune fuse be installed
Theaudiotweak, is it possible to make a magnet fuse. If Rick Schultz can make magnetic cables, it seems that you could make one end a north pole end and the other a south pole end.As you know, I really did not want to go without fuse protection, b... 
What direction should Hi Fi tune fuse be installed
Almarg, certainly ceteris paribus is sought in a good experiment. When I did my experiments with fuse manufacturers, I did treat all fuses with AudioTop and even tried to clean fuse holders, but many are very difficult to do this, but of course, I...

Rodman99999, you went to the trouble to gather all of these examples where we learned that we don't know everything. I have always thought to do that. I used to have a citation of a speech by Harold Lasswell about the findings of the American Sold...

Leicachamp, I do know that the hot pins on RCA plugs in the various HFC series differ. I have had some variation in how difficult it is to insert HFC cables on components, but none have been so loose as to not make contact. I guess the question I ...

Nonoise, so no one should buy a wine, car, or take a wife without proving their decision to others. I should note that you have not proven that you are right.Magnetic waves are induced by any electronic current and electronic current flow is induc... 
Reviews of $10k plus ics, speaker wires, and pcs
David12, I really don't think any component or wire is easy to evaluate, but cables are worse. All of them take breakin and most this may be erratic and to again be needed when moved. Isolation is another major variation. I have found that the Sti...

Jmcgrogan2, I think it is the Teas that think they will win the Senate as they thought they would do in 2012, but lost six seats. Right now they are losing all four of the seats they thought were theirs to take. 
Reviews of $10k plus ics, speaker wires, and pcs
Jmcgrogan2, I agree but suspect that the middle-class will throw the Teas out and we will see what FDR did to stop the concentration in the 1% before, namely strengthen unions. Organization is the only way to beat organization. Of course, most uni...

Czarivey, yeah, I believe this. Try "realism," "black background," "sharp leading edge," " decay clearly audible," etc.

Timrhu, you have got to remember how long I've been at this hobby. When I started no one gave any thought to speaker wires, power cords, isolation from vibrations, racks etc. I still remember buying Bob Fulton's speaker wires that were a prescribe...

Leicachamp, no that is not normal. I would call HFC about this, or take them back to the dealer. But remember it is not normal.
