Sakura Systems OTA Cable Kit
BTW, I rewired my Dunlavy SCI4's and I had to mount my X-over outside.Huge difference. A buddie of mine who has Spendors rewired his with the same wire I used and could hardly hold onto the phone as he described the improvement. 
Replacing internal wiring.
The solder is named after its composition designer.Riehl Copper Solder.I used Brents hook up wire as well.Its a solid core with his micro-bearing shield around the insulator.This cable is naturally detailed and every so dynamic.1-877-668-4332. The... 
What's better: RCA or XLR?
I have found the shorter and less complicated the signal path the better.Single ended have a less complicated path than balanced.Single ended I sense to be more coherent. 
Replacing internal wiring.
I have found by using the same cable design inside my system components as well as the cables that feed them has made my system effortless and of one signature.No more hodge podge.All the same.The new copper based solder I ran across seems to have... 
Argent Room Lenses?
22 yrs ago,in my first home I had a live end dead end listening room using Sonex. The results in that room were spectacular.In years since I have been fortunate to have been able to use less and less room treatment. I have found by using specifica... 
Isolation Cones. Will I get the point?
I recently awoke the other day and found myself in the 21st.century. Last time I saw anyone use an innertube was on the deck of the Titanic [they drowned]. Hope you get the point. Isolation does not work. It only delays the the time of return. 
Richard Gray's Power Company
I was born a skeptic with an open mind. Anyone with a sharp pencil can write specs. Ask the IRS. Like I said the Gray stuff killed my system. From its creation, my friends system was built out from the Equi-Tech panel. I can only comment on what I... 
Best Cable for canceling RFI
I use the shielded cables from Sonoran Audio.The new Plateau series uses a steel micro bearing final shield that reduces micro-vibrations and has the added benefit of rejecting RFI.Really well constructed cable with van den Hul connectors.Good luck! 
Any comments on Symposium Svelte Shelf?
Hello Ken Lyon,the fill material for the Sistum product is not a dampening material,it is actually a steel alloy.The steel bearings are smaller in diameter than a human hair.You drop these babies and they are hell to chase around and get up.Anyway... 
thoghts about isolation.
No more than writing about valid upgrades to Dunlavy products in the speaker forum.Tom 
Any comments on Symposium Svelte Shelf?
If you use isolation devices in your system then you are only masking and dampening the glare that is stored in your components. 
How grills affect?
First things to go on my SCiv's were the grilles. Sound much better when the grilles are in the closet than when they are masking the speakers. Tom 
Any comments on Symposium Svelte Shelf?
To make any component sound better seek out a Sistrum platform or better yet their complete rack. They let you, for the first time hear your system under real dynamic conditions. 
Pat Metheny Concert
I have had the pleasure of hearing the Pat Metheny Group three times, always superb, in every way.Great to come away knowing they can play those instruments for real, and sound better than the recording. 
thoghts about isolation.
The devices I am using can be described as reactive devices that collect and then pass to ground, mechanical, electrical as well as airborne vibration. These designs are not isolation devices and are not designed to store energy in a box or a shel...
