| Room Treatments added, with negative effects.. Have you read a discussion about increasing the air flow of an intake manifold? Redirecting what is traped by right angles is more science than art..

| Room Treatments added, with negative effects.. I have used many types of sound treatment over the years from many different manufacturers. All have their problems. Using nothing is better than most. Redirecting the air flow geometrically in my room, mostly on the ceiling and atop the speakers ... | |

| Monster Power conditioners. Anyone using one? Slap man, like I indicated before I use no protection. I have not yet installed a line conditioner that has not degraded the sound of my system.. I have not used everything out there only ten different brands and models...Tom | |
| Monster Power conditioners. Anyone using one? Corona well said..Tom | |
| Monster Power conditioners. Anyone using one? I don't use any protection at all! As a result textural feel is increased. Much easier to focus. Seems to be in better contact with the original intended environment. Definitly sweeter. Much more dynamic contrast. Deeper soundstage. The audience a... | |
| Mixing and Matching Cable Brands: Bad Idea?? Eur how can you say which cable is not neutral or is, revealing? Have you ever heard a system you new well that was wired thru-out with any of the two cable brands you mentioned? I haven't.. If you haven't either then can you assume it was not int... | |

| Mixing and Matching Cable Brands: Bad Idea?? I try to keep it simple. Granted, I have a different amp, pre-amp and front end. But I have eliminated for the most part as many other variables as my brain and my wallet will allow. All the speaker wire is the same thru-out even internal to my sp... | |
