| After a (weeks) worth of listening... Just finished 4 days with Iron and Wine's new album Beast Epic. It sounds so good. Lots of great, intimate vocals and mostly acoustic instruments with almost none of the electronic treatments he's known for. | |
| JWAudio Cryo-Nova speaker cable. How does it rate? @gilatgh Hey, that’s why I said seems. I’m definitely not claiming to be an expert, they’re simply impressions formed after reading people’s descriptions and reviews of gear when I’ve been searching. I almost bought an adcom 555 last year during m... | |
| So how many use MM cartridge and intend to keep it that way ? Hell, I'm happy with one. What's wrong with me?! | |
| Best fuses for under $50? I put a PADIS in each of my class D monoblocks and heard an instant improvement... I'm thankful for threads like these. Thanks guys | |
| So how many use MM cartridge and intend to keep it that way ? Me neither.. curious now. Damn it. | |
| Would you sell half your vinyl collection to get great equipment ? Ha! I bought five records this week already. I definitely spend way more on music than equipment...@nkonor - I found the same. When my room wasn't treated and I hadn't dialed in my system somewhat, mediocre recordings sounded like rubbish. Now eve... | |
| Is this my imagination? @hifiman5 while decoupling speakers from a suspended floor would help reduce vibrations transferred to the components through the floor, there would still be vibrations induced through the movement of air. So, like you said, isolating equipment is... | |
| Will preamp manufacturers tell you if the model is phase inverse? @kalali that would just swap left and right, not phase. Swapping phase involves swapping the signal and ground wires within each cable.. | |
| Question for cable/wire naysayers..... My perspective is this: there are two separate arguments here, using the same words, and people keep talking past one another.Many people seem to be against cables because of two main things: high (absurd) prices and crazy, hyperbolic marketing co... | |
| JWAudio Cryo-Nova speaker cable. How does it rate? Hilarious that your HT system has a turntable and seems loads better than your stereo rig. | |
| Question for cable/wire naysayers..... I was a sceptic once. Used blue jeans ICs and SCs..Now I DIY my own stuff using quality materials. There is an easily discernable difference. I'd never go back. You nays can throw as much pseudo science around as the cable manufacturers do, just f... | |
| Is this my imagination? Ahhh, I thought the table was there before. Yeah, if you just put the table there and it wasn't there before, then the room acoustics will be different than when it wasn't between the speakers.What I said about isolation still holds true as well. | |
| Cable Survey They have the same attributes you've ascribed to yours: high level of clarity, good separation of sounds, bigger soundstage and I also noticed greater bass clarity | |
| Cable Survey @maine95 I made a pair of ICs using the helix design and the pure harmony connectors. I didn't use mundorf, but I did use 24awg solid silver in cotton. I purchased mine from vh audio. I used his unicrystal OCC silver and, instead of teflon or PET ... | |
| Is this my imagination? It's funny how everyone is responding to questions you didn't ask.It's not strange that putting the amp and cd player on the table has changed the sound. This is why people pay good money for equipment racks. I just use an Ikea console which I spi... |
