| Dialectric grease any thoughts The latest generation of Ultraconnect polluted my system!!! Took a long time to remove any trace of it. Audioquest made a running change in the original formula at the request of a certain angency. | |
| What is vibration isolation for? You cannot fight mother nature so the best thing to do, is to let it vibrate. I will be happy to tell you why.. later, but for now I have to meet a client. Great discussion...Tom | |
| What is vibration isolation for? Isolation in the purist term does not exsist, so why waste your time. Speaking of time,everything moves and vibrates. These artificially induced motions create their own current of noise which are regurgitated, and again misproduced by your equipm... | |
| Personal amp evolution Way back machine takes me to a pair of Phase Linear 400's driving 4 EPI mini-towers. Next stop was a pair of ESS transmission lines with RTR electrosatic tweeters bi-amped with ARC amps. Then onto Magnaplanar tympani 3a with the same ARC amps. Nex... | |
| Any non-box or non-black grey amplifiers? How about a shape that is designed to improve the sound. Wow! someone actually thinking outside the box. The pun was intended. I have been using for the last six months Harmonic Precision Mono amps . These amps by their design shape are able to di... | |
| Copper Deterioration? Mechanical integrity of any cable product is almost as important as the internal composition. Copper based cables will not oxidize if conductors are shielded properly and the joint at the termination is hermetically sealed. Obviously the terminati... | |
| Need a "short list" of best Subwoofers for M.L.'s Settled on a pair of Paradigm Servo 15's. They are very fast and musical. I run my Dunlavy SCIV's full range and only add the subs for support and weight below 50hz. I would put any and all subs on Audiopoints or Sp-1 platforms .These devices make... | |
| Unbelievable Indeed The possible explanation of the brass wall plate is as follows.The brass wall plate is acting in benefit in two ways. Brass is going to serve as a RFI shield at the wall to room junction. The brass wall plate will greatly increase the size of the ... | |
| Sakura Systems OTA Cable Kit Dave,the solder is called Riehl Copper Solder named after its composition designer Brent Riehl. This solder has no lead and no flux. I got it to flow well. You do need to have a quality gun with adjustable temperature. This is, by far the best sou... | |
| Sakura Systems OTA Cable Kit On one other thread I commented that I use the same wire thru out my system. Internally as well as externally. .Almost all the connections are done with the same copper based solder as well. We all speak of time alignment and coherence. This rathe... | |
| 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... |
