| Class D is just Dandy! I’m so jealous of how much great gear you guys get to hear. For me, I get to l listen to what I have. That’s it. Good thing I love what I have! I’m a bunch of posts late, but my Ghent audio monoblocks were only $600 used and can be had for $1000 n... | |
| Placement tips for Synergistic Research HTFs Great write up! I'm going to have to play with the effects of placement on frequency. I have noticed a subtle shift in which frequencies seem more prominent since I've installed these crazy little things. I think putting them lower is where I need... | |
| What speaker cable made a major difference in the sound quality of your speakers?? Thank you for saving us from this Tom foolery Edward. We've obviously been fooling ourselves for years and just needed you to set us straight. Praise jah! | |
| Vibration control inside a cabinet @bdp24 that is a great idea. Thanks! | |
| Should All Power Cables be Alike? @lowrider57 good point, I missed that. 20 amp power cords have different connectors at the component end and will not fit on components with 15 amp IEC inlets. Most components have 15 amp IECs. The plug and connector ratings apply mostly to which ... | |
| Hearing is believing?........power cables....... I think a common assumption many sceptics make (and I was one) is equating good power cords with expensive power cords. While there is overlap, they are two separate sets.DIY is the only way I roll, but mainly because it lets me inexpensively expe... | |
| Should All Power Cables be Alike? Many members find that to be the case. I hate to keep saying this, but the only way to be sure is to try. I personally have not tried going directly into the wall, but that's because I don't have enough outlets at the wall because I have monoblock... | |
| Should All Power Cables be Alike? Yeah, those furutech outlets are pricey! If you're going top of the line everywhere else, they're probably worth it. Otherwise, there are less expensive options that provide reasonable performance. I use Hubbell commercial outlets with non ferrous... | |
| Class D is just Dandy! @autre maybe the amps had different input impedences? | |
| Should All Power Cables be Alike? Damn. Hope you're well now!There is no reason you need to stick with the same cable throughout. Some people use the same brand for all their cabling, some mix and match.. I've heard of people that like the house sound of a cable company so much th... | |
| Vibration control inside a cabinet Not a bad idea, Geoff! Except it will make me want some better made, metal roller bearings and cups.. then I'd have to spend 💰. | |
| Vibration control inside a cabinet I second mesch's suggestions with one change: use springs under the maple platforms instead of dampers. | |
| Pass Labs Stfoth - I agree completely. I think it's crazy that there are things that cost as much as they do, but I tend to notice it, remark on its insanity, then go about my day.. I think the responses about compassion and the plight of the less fortunate... | |
| Pass Labs Wow. Three cheers for compassion and an open heart! I usually get chased off of male dominated forums for standing up for the oppressed, let alone seeing others take that stance. This hasn't been a politically minded forum, so it makes me happy to... | |
| Hearing is believing?........power cables....... I find it funny that a) we still have this argument and b) there are still people who don't think a PC will change the sound.I can at least respect the argument that the change in sound is not an improvement. While I don't agree completely, it at ... |
