Speaker cable vs. interconnect cable length
Tonyptony, Depending your budget, the new Harmonic Tech Cyberlight cables (in non-balanced RCA type) have absolutely zero loss over very long runs. This is due to thier fiber optic technology. No need to use balanced cables for long runs anymore. ... 
Anyone hear the Von Schweikert DB-99?
For anyone looking in this price range, I highly recommend listening to the Montana EPX's. Definately one of the finest speakers I have heard and owned. 
Esoteric DV-50: Any cdp's Significantly better?
Audiojoy, If you found my humor rude and disrespectful, better look in the mirror. I've always been amused by the fact that almost ANY post will rub SOMEONE the wrong way. I could be the bigger man and let your comments go, but ....HMM....NOT. Aft...

To be honest, Conrad Johnson actually did use rubber bands to suspend a nuvister tube board in their Premier series phono pre amp in the 80's. The nuvistors were so prone to vibration and mechanical noise that tapping on the cabinet made one hellu...

Boa2, Forgot to mention the price. The TJR Magnavox will be sold for only $69. It’s going to take $3200 in DV-50’s to make each TJR unit, but I will absorb that cost as part of research and development. The unit also uses a new proprietary chassis...

An open invitation. Anyone that wants to compare the modified DV-50 and their unit, come to my home. I welcome anyone with any player. Bring cables, isolation, or whatever, but the comparison will be with the same products on both machines.Stock D...

Alex, I'm certainly willing to take you up on that offer. In return, you will receive a fair and concise evaluation between just the two players in a different environment. There are at least two other seasoned audiophiles here that would be willi...

Alex, your post is sarcastic and demeaning. I played fair with you by emailing about your thoughts on the two players before going to the shootout. The contents of that email have and will remain confidential as promised. My trip to Chicago was tw...

In defense of 711...As far as meeting him for the first time, I found him to be a cool guy. He spoke his mind ,was funny, and brought some great wine that we all enjoyed. I never heard a detrimental thing from him during the entire session. I'm su...

Brians missing CD was one of the outstanding recordings there. It's a little hard to find in stores and I had to order mine from Amazon. It is: Nils Lofgren, Acoustic Live. One of the others that made the Soundlabs "sing" was a SACD release on Pro...

Why do intelligent people deny audio differences?
The fact remains that high-end audio is not for the masses. This fact is substantiated by the incredible growth and interest in MP3. The average person is happy with this level of performance. I believe that most people do hear the difference when...
