| What speaker cable made a major difference in the sound quality of your speakers?? @edward506 (why does the @ only sometimes work?) - I totally get where you’re coming from. I was sceptical as well, read all the articles saying all that matters is resistance, maybe capacitance.. I bought blue jeans cables and didn’t even bother ... | |
| Has anyone had experiences good or bad with speaker isolation or isolation in general ? @cellcbern how stable are those iso pucks on carpet? Would I need to have a spiked platform to put my speakers on if I fitted them with the iso pucks? They’re still expensive, but..Never you mind. I just looked at their web page. They sell cups wi... | |
| Hearing is believing?........power cables....... @randy-11 why the crunk doesn't the @ work for your username?!I understand there is an increase in NVH. My last car was a bit of a toy that I played with and there was definitely an increase in NVH. The analogy of NVH in the audio world would be a... | |
| Hearing is believing?........power cables....... @randy-11 - people definitely bling out their cars! By performance mods, though, I meant mods that actually increase performance, such as stiffer motor mounts, better air intake assemblies, engine tuning.. I think you caught that differentiation, ... | |
| Class D is just Dandy! I love the idea of a class D website, but to what purpose? Reviewing, comparing, contrasting? Or all of that plus sales? It sounds like fun, but also like a lot of work.. though getting a steady stream of amps to review could lessen the pain.I’m c... | |
| Pass Labs Tubegroover and Charles - both well put.I don't disagree with a lot of what you say, but this back pedaling on environmental and sustainability progress is my major bone of contention with what bigkidz elaborated in his post. We can ignore the pro... | |
| Class D is just Dandy! The gods must be crazy! | |
| Hearing is believing?........power cables....... Taking a well built item and modifying specific parts to increase performance is a common practice with tangible results. Have you ever put actual performance upgrades on a car? They actually increase the performance, go figure. So why don't the c... | |
| Class D is just Dandy! That's not a valid argument. With a new technology, why would established manufacturers be better at implementation than those who helped develop the technology? | |
| Pass Labs Coal is dead. Have you seen what mountaintop mining does? And scrubbers in coal plants do not remove the CO2. That is a huge problem with coal. Natural gas is immensely more environmentally friendly than coal. Also, the natural gas boom will kill ... | |
| Hearing is believing?........power cables....... I'm also of the opinion that, when upgrading cords, most of us go with a fatter cable than what came with the unit, so the increased conductor size increases both the current available (assuming there's not a bottleneck somewhere else, such as a c... | |
| Should All Power Cables be Alike? You'll have no problem upgrading the outlets to 20 amp. You'll still need 15 amp PCs to mate with the IEC inlet on your amps.I've made two of Williewonka's DIY helix design with the sonarquest connectors and yarbo cable with great results over ear... | |
| Pass Labs Bigkidz - give it up. Coal is dead. Those people need jobs, not environmental destruction they won’t even benefit from. You want a winning industry? Wind power. Solar. Those industries are booming. They need workers..Until the industry dies becaus... | |
| Class D is just Dandy! Ha! Thanks for the vote of confidence, Erik. Kdude - I'm only jealous that people get to hear all these amazing pieces of equipment. I'm curious, more than anything. But when I choose a piece of gear, I tend to stick with it for years. I am a cont... | |
| Has anyone had experiences good or bad with speaker isolation or isolation in general ? Obviously, springs were a popular topic. Ha!@kennythekey my first guess would be to rigidly mount it to the wall. But that’s just a guess without having any experience of how wiggly your wall is, etc..In general, I’ve had the best success with a r... |
